Concealed Raison D'être

Prologue

-Seventeen Years Ago-

"Why do we have to watch her?"

John Winchester looked down at his older son, "Because it's not safe for her. Or your brother. I'm trusting you to take care of Sam and Roxanne, Dean."

Dean looked behind him through the open hotel door to see a little blonde girl, a year or two younger than he, watching TV with his brother.

"Can you do that for me?" John asked his son.

Dean nodded.

"Go back inside and lock the door. We'll be back sometime later tonight or early in the morning," he said.

Dean awoke to see Sam sleeping on the bed in front of him. He'd fallen asleep in a chair next to the bed, watching over his little brother.

He looked at the other bed and noticed his father wasn't back, but Roxanne was missing.

"Sam!" he roused his brother, "She's gone!"

-Present Day-

Sam and Dean entered a bar, weary and eager for a break from hunting. Each decidedly choosing different ways to relieve their stress, they split up. Sam made his way to the bar while Dean went looking for a woman to talk to.

"You look tired," a brunette sat next to Sam.

He turned to look at her. "Yeah, I haven't been sleeping well," he looked her over. "You don't seem the bar type."

She laughed to herself, "Bar type?"

"Oh, I'm sorry...I didn't mean—"

"No it's okay, I'm really not. But there's not much else here. How 'bout you? You don't seem the 'bar type' either," she interrupted.

Sam smiled and looked at the beer that had just been set in front of him, "No, I'm not. My brother, however, is."

"Ah. Well, my name is Bella."

"S..." he caught himself. "Steve."

"Well, it was nice chatting with you, Steve. Maybe I'll see you later?" she shrugged and got up.

"Maybe. Bella," he looked up at her. She looks familiar, he thought to himself.

"Dude, there's this chick over there and she's got a sister I think you might like," Dean came up on the other side of Sam.

When Sam looked back to where Bella had been standing, she was gone.

"Nah, I'll sit this one out. Have fun," he took a swig of his beer.

"Alright, have it your way," Dean walked away.

Sam just couldn't shake this feeling that he'd met this Bella girl before.

The brunette got her keys out of her purse and began walking towards her car. She felt like she'd met Steven before. She realized her car door was already unlocked and got in, starting the car and putting on her seat belt. Then she looked into her rearview mirror.

Author's Note- So I think I'll update this about once a week. Anyway, I'd like to know what you think so far, so leave a review please. And on another note, I'm writing a sequel to Better Off. So if you haven't read Better Off already, please do. And by the way, the chapters to this will be longer, this is just a prologue. And I'm on spring break, yay.
