To Tell the Truth ~ Chapter 1

"I learned that from the pizza man," Castiel explained.

The boys looked on in confusion. Their friend-this so-called Angel of the Lord-had, after all, just passionately kissed a demon.

And not just any demon. Meg. After all the trouble she had put Dean and Sam through, they felt a certain indignation.

"Yeah, indignation," Dean thought, but there was more to it than he would admit, even to himself.

Sharp twinges of jealousy pained him as they left Meg to fight the hellhounds. The thought crossed Dean's mind that it wouldn't be so bad if the demon bitch died in the process.


Another job done, another bad mattress in another quirky motel room.

Dean closed his eyes at last, exhausted from the fight with Crowley. His mind drifted to all that he had lost in his life.

Mom.

Dad.

Sammy, though he always seemed to bounce back.

He was losing Lisa and Ben.

"Why did I ever set foot on that doorstep? Why did I drag them into this mess?"

And the painful truth that came out of Lisa's mouth, whether or not she meant to tell him, was still true.

"Nobody really wants to hear the truth," Dean thought as he drifted to sleep, thinking of one more person he kept losing.


Sorry for such a short chapter! It picks up quick, I promise!
