Evy didn't have very many choices. A green skirt, a red dress, and a blue summer dress. None of them looked particularly good to her, but she had to leave fairly quickly. She chose the blue summer dress and a blue cardigan, slipped on her dark blue flats, then quickly brushed her hair. She had never worn makeup much before, so she checked herself once more in the mirror then headed out.
Butterflies were flapping around rapidly in her stomach as she thought of where she was going. Owen was one of the many refugees who had come from the alternate world with Sam and Dean. It had become a routine the last few weeks. She'd claim to be going to Jody's to help with a hunt. Owen would follow a few hours later. Claire would cover for her, telling Sam and Dean that Evy was sleeping or was chasing a lead on their case, but Evy didn't count on her cover lasting for too much longer. She was surprised that neither of them suspected anything yet, or at least hadn't said anything to her. Evy decided she looked as good as she could, then headed out.
Sam was in the library, talking to a group of the new residents from the alternate world. One of them was Owen, who saw her and gave a slight smile and nod. Evy smiled back, and the butterflies in her stomach started fluttering even faster. Sam wrapped up the meeting, turned, and spotted Evy. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Look at you."
"Thanks." Evy said. "I'm heading out."
"Where?" Sam asked.
"I'm going to Jody's for the weekend. Remember?"
"Again?" Dean came from around the corner, piece of leftover pizza in his hand. "You don't like us anymore or something?"
"You keep eating my candy stash and I won't." Evy said seriously.
"Wasn't me." Dean said with a shrug, though he refused to look her in the eye.
"Yeah. Right." Evy said. "Either way, I'm off."
"Are you going to see a guy?" Dean asked.
"I told you." Evy said. "I'm going to Jody's for the weekend."
"Cricket? Are you?" Sam asked.
Evy sighed and closed her eyes for a moment. "I told you both once, and I'll tell you again. I am going to Jody's. That's all I'll say."
"That's not a no, Sam." Dean pointed out.
Evy grinned and grabbed one arm of Sam's and one arm of Dean's. "I've got one thing to say to both of you. If I am going to see a guy, then I haven't brought him to meet you because he hasn't earned that privilege yet. Now I love you more than life itself. But if you follow me, or if you ask someone to follow me, or if you ask someone to ask someone to follow me, I will find the both of you and I will make everything we've been through look like a walk in the park. Got it?"
"Got it." Sam and Dean said together.
"Good." Evy said. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Dean's cheek, then kissed Sam's. "Bye, boys."
"Bye, Cricket. Be careful." Sam said. "Please."
Finally free, Evy got behind the wheel of the car she used when travelling and started out. When she stopped to get gas, her phone lit up with a text from Owen.
I just left. Should be about an hour or so behind you.
K be careful, Evy responded. Did my brothers say anything to you?
No, I think we're good.
"We better be." Evy said to herself.
With a full gas tank and the open road in front of her, Evy headed out, feeling happier and freer than in a long time. Though her instincts told her it was too good to last, she chose to push them down and go after what she wanted. How bad could it be?
