"Dean!"
"What?!"
"Come here!" I yelled. I was curled up in the corner of the sofa, tired as Hell, felling like crap. I'd barely slept in days, lying awake for hours until I frequently saw the sun rise.
Dean appeared from round the corner, hands in his pockets, one eyebrow raised, "What?"
"Come over here"
He shook his head and padded over, "What is it, Mav? I was research a possible case."
I snorted a laughed, "Yeah right - you were sitting in the library watching Sam do research"
He laughed, sitting beside me, with his arm across the back of the sofa, "Okay, you got me. So what did you want any way?"
"I wanna hug"
He stared at me, looking so done, "Seriously? That's what you shouted me for? Shouted. For a hug?"
"Yeah," I nodded, "I feel crap and I want a hug." I batted my eyelids, looking up at him with puppy dog eyes.
Dean rolled his eyes, "I'm a friggin' hunter, I kill friggin' demon, but I get shouted on when Mav wants a hug" he muttered to himself, half laughing.
"Yeah, now hug me" I grinned.
He laughed and wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me to his side. I curled in against him, my head on his shoulder, my hand on the shoulder opposite.
After a moment Dean lifted me and sat me on his lap. I twisted, lying against him, my arms around his shoulders. He wrapped his arms round my back, holding me to him gently. I nuzzled my head into the crook of his neck and closed my eyes, breathing in his aftershave along with the sent of beer.
Dean slowly ran his hand up and down the small of my back, all but lulling me to sleep. We must have been there for ages. Dean had gently rested his chin on my head, continuing to rub my back. I was happy and comfortable… then Sam came in.
"That's cute guys, but we've got a case" I groaned, cuddling in tighter to Dean. Sam laughed, "Yeah, i get it, but we need to go - looks like demons."
I didn't move for a moment. Then Dean suddenly stood up. I clung onto him, "The Hell was that, Winchester?!"
He held me up, holding me bridal style with my arms round his shoulders. "Well, I was going to be nice and carry you to the impala, but if you'd rather walk…"
"No, I'm good, just a little warning next time" He laughed and I caught Sam rolling his eyes. I kissed Dean's cheek and whispered to him, "I could get used to this, boy"
