Chapter one
What do we do?
"What do we do?" Rocky asked looking at her boyfriend for help while pointing at the girl sleeping on the toddler bed with curly red hair. During a hunt that Grace, Rocky, Dean, Sam, and Castiel were on, the demon they were hunting killed this toddler's parents before the hunters could kill it.
"I don't know! Why are you looking at me?" Dean asked. Dean's yelling woke the little girl and she obviously was not a morning person, because she started crying.
"Oh no you woke her!" Grace said walking over to her and picking her up seeing her big brown eyes look at her curiously. She gently pulled the girl's head close and whispered sweet words in her ear till she calmed down. Once the little girl was calm again she smiled up at Grace and started playing with Grace's long brown hair. The boys looked lost at how the normally hype girl can calm a toddler in seconds.
"How did you do that?" Sam asked pointing at the little girl.
"You mean calm her?" Grace asked with a giggle as she set the girl on the floor.
"Yeah like how?" Sam asked again.
"My mom used to work at a daycare and I would come in with her sometimes so I picked up a few tricks on how to care for children. It's really not that hard." Grace sat on the floor and played with the girl as the boys and Rocky just stood there watching.
"Ok well as much as I love watching you playing with a two-year-old we really…. Wait is she two?" Rocky asked Grace knowing she would be the only one to know the answer.
"If she's two she's a new two because she's still in diapers." Grace said.
"I'm going to go look around to see if there's anything on her family and try to find someone to take her." Sam said.
"She has no family near here." Cas answered.
"What?" Dean asked.
"Her grandparents died before she was born and she had no aunts or uncles." Cas explained looking at the little girl.
"Well we can't leave her." Grace said standing back up only to have the child beg to be picked up which Grace happily did.
"We can take her to Bobby's." Sam offered.
"Bobby would flip." Rocky responded.
"Bobby will get it and he will not be alone because we can help. I'll show you how to care for her. Yay we get a kid!" Grace said dancing around with the child.
"I'm not helping. Kids hate me." Rocky said as the little girl held she hands out for Rocky.
"Oh hell no I'm not taking that little thing." Rocky said as she backed away.
"She's not a thing and please take her my arm is getting tired." Grace begged.
"Fine." Rocky said and took the little girl and held her in arm's length.
"That's just sad." Grace said eyeing Rocky. Grace walked over to her and gently pushed the kid closer to Rocky and showed Rocky where to put her arms." That's better." Grace said as she poked the little girls nose.
"Cas do you know her name?" Sam asked.
"Yes, it is Teddy Anna Page." He responded.
"Aw Teddy that's so cute!" Grace said to Teddy.
"That smell isn't cute." Dean said smelling the air.
"Grace, take her now." Rocky said dumping Teddy in Grace's arms.
"Ugh fine I'll change the diaper." Grace walked to the changing table laying Teddy down. As Grace pulled Teddys pink night gown with ladybugs up she looked to see where her clothes were and saw that they were across the room.
"Can someone pick an outfit for Teddy and pack her a bag so we can leave?" Grace asked everyone.
"Yeah what does she need?" Sam asked. Grace turned back to the task at hand and started to change Teddy's diaper.
"Um she'll need a blanket, clothes, toys, shoes, diapers, wipes, cream, and that stuffed monster thing in her crib." Grace answered as she heard everyone rush around grabbing the things she said to grab. After Grace changed Teddy she turned around to see everyone's hands full of stuff. Teddy reached for her monster which Grace took from her boyfriend's hands, Castiel, and gave it to her.
"Frankie!" She said as she hugged the stuffed toy close.
"Where's her clothes?" Grace asked looking at all of them.
"Here." Dean handed her a gray shirt with a sunflower on it and some yellow pants.
"Not bad on picking the outfit." Grace said as she took it and helped Teddy in to it.
"Mommy?" Teddy asked after she got dressed. Grace looked in her big brown eyes and felt tears form in her eyes as Teddy started to look around for her mom.
"Sweetie um mommy and daddy are um their um…" Grace tried but failed to tell Teddy where her parents were and started to cry.
"Your mom and dad are in a better place now." Castiel said rushing to help his girlfriend.
"But I want to go with them." Teddy said confused as why she was here.
"You can't. See where they are only they can go, so you can come with us for now." Dean helped Cas.
"What no!" Teddy cried with Grace. Rocky walked over to Grace and handed Teddy to Castiel as Teddy held on to Frankie for dear life. Rocky held Grace and soothed her down.
"This life sucks." Grace said through her tears.
"I know but who else is going to do it?"
"I know but she's just a baby Rocky." Grace said as she started to calm down.
"Ok well we need to get out of this house, so boys get this stuff in a bag and Cas find a car seat for Teddy and get her in the car and Grace help Cas while I help the boys." They all followed Rocky's instructions and did what needed to be done.
Grace helped Cas with the car seat and put Teddy in it and handed her Frankie just as the boys and Rocky walked out of the house. Dean dropped two bags of Teddy's stuff and their hunting bag in the trunk.
"Ok, we ready?" Dean asked.
"I think so." Rocky said.
"I have heaven duties to finish. I will see you all at Bobby's in a few days." Castiel said with a wave.
"Wait!" Grace yelled. She ran to Cas and hugged him goodbye hiding her face in his trench coat. After the hug, he was gone in a wink.
"Ok let's hit the road." Dean yelled as he got in the driver's seat. Rocky got in the front with Dean, much to Sam's unpleasantness, so that left Grace and Sam in the back with Teddy. Grace looked to see that Teddy was asleep holding Frankie and with her thumb in her mouth. Grace smiled and looked at Rocky who was passed out leaning her head in Dean's lap while one of Dean's hands were playing with Rocky's strawberry blondie hair. She looked over to Sam to see him asleep to with his head leaning up against the widow. Grace looked out her window and watched the moon as she too began to grow tired.
