Chapter One
Secret
Lisa
I had this secret.
I've kept it for so long.
I was lying awake in my bed. Ben was sleeping peacefully down the hall, he has no idea of the secret I've been keeping. Dean, that's who I'm thinking of right now. He was probably 100 miles out of town by now.
I wouldn't be surprised. I yelled at him after he shoved Ben against the wall, the very last time he was here. I regretted it. I looked over at the alarm clock by my bed, 4:30. I rose out of the bed, giving up on sleep all together. I grabbed my cell, and scrolled down to Dean's name.
I had a war within myself on whether it was right to call him or not.
My heart won out, and I called him.
"Hello?" a gruff, tired voice replied.
"Dean?" I asked.
"Lisa?" Dean asked. "Are you okay? What's wrong?"
"Nothing, Dean, did I wake you?" I asked.
I heard a muffled sigh. "Yeah, Sam and I worked on a case late." He said. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'll let you go then." I said. "No, I want to talk," Dean said.
I breathed in, deeply. "Why did you call?" He asked. "I wanted to hear your voice, I know…it's silly, I'm the one who told you to leave us alone." I replied. I could hear a chuckle on the other end of the line. "I know, um, about that…" Dean said.
"Dean, you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to." I replied.
"I want to," He whispered. "The truth is, Lis, I miss you. I miss Ben, too." I gulped, fingering the end of my T-shirt. "Besides Sam, you and Ben are the only family I have…and I want to tell you the truth."
"Dean," I began. "Sh, let me finish." He said. "The night I shoved Ben, it wasn't me, well, it was me…but not me."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"I was a vampire, Lisa, I just came by that day to say good-bye and to thank you for all that you've done for me," He whispered.
Just then, I heard something downstairs. A noise. I rose from the bed, and grabbed my robe, and put it on. "Dean, I've got to go!" I cried, as I hung up on him. I then, headed down the stairs, toward the noise that arose my attention.
