Author's Note: AT LAST! I've had this saved on my computer for a couple of weeks now and have been DYING to publish it. But, I didn't want to spoil anything in the Over the Hills and Far Away story and by that, I didn't want to spoil the whole twins surprise thing. But here we are. And I'm really excited to write this. Reviews are certainly appreciated!

I hate Supernatural hiatuses. So I will update (hopefully) quite a lot tonight.

***PLEASE listen to "Steer" by Missy Higgins when you read this chapter. Thanks!***

Monday, August 20, 2029

"You are so hot," Jamie Callahan smirked in between kisses.

"You too, baby. Thanks for last night though. I'll see you at school," John Caleb Winchester said, before pulling away. The girl smiled at him and John smiled his charming, slick, heartbreaking crooked smile back at the girl. John opened the window and hopped out of it. He was glad it was a one story house because those two story houses always got tricky. John's shoes followed and John slipped them on before hurrying to the Impala. He put the keys in the ignition, turned on the classic rock station, and sped away.

John Winchester arrived at his house at 1352 Sycamore Court. The house was quiet so he parked the car and tiptoed into the house, up to his room and got in bed. He glanced at the clock that read 6:30 – August 20, 2029. School started at eight thirty, so he had about a good half hour more minutes to sleep. It didn't take him long to get ready for school and he'd have a quick breakfast. John was exhausted, but he smirked to himself as he replayed the events of last night over and over in his mind.

So worth it, he thought to himself.

He closed his eyes in attempt to get some shut eye.

Victoria was already up and heard her brother sneak in through the back door. She rolled her eyes. Ever since her brother had started his senior year, his late night visit to whatever girl he was fucking that week had become much more frequent. She turned the water on and stripped off her clothes and jumped in the shower.

Flynn woke up to hear the shower running. He groaned. He wanted to take a shower first and he knew that his twin sister always took forever in the shower and would use up all the hot water. He went to the Jack and Jill bathroom that they shared and knocked on the door obnoxiously.

"What?" Victoria yelled.

"It's me. How long are you going to take?" Flynn grumbled.

"Hold on! I just need to finish washing my hair. Jeez!" Victoria said back. Flynn groaned and then got back in his bed. He closed his eyes but couldn't fall back asleep. He just listened to the shower run before the water went off. Victoria opened the door, a towel wrapped around her slim body.

"I'm done, okay? It's all yours," she scoffed, before closing the door and going back into her room.

"Sweet," Flynn said, almost to himself, going into the bathroom, stripping off his boxers, and starting his own shower. "Damn it, Victoria! You used all the hot water!" Instead of actual words, Victoria responded with the shut of her door.

Jude Winchester looked around his neat and tidy room, waking up. It was about seven and he could smell breakfast being made. Jude had just gotten back from medical program in Peru and looked around his room. It almost looked a guest room but then again, sometimes this house felt like a guest room. Jude was rarely ever home between school, applying for med school and the summer programs that he was doing. He had been working in a clinic in Costa Rica the summer before and wasn't home very often anymore. Jude hadn't been home at all this summer except for the first couple of weeks that he was out of school and up until a few days ago. He felt bad, but he would start school right after Labor Day, anyways.

Jude got up and threw on a shirt before going downstairs.

"Hey, Mom," he said, kissing his mother on the cheek. His mom, Meredith, stood in the kitchen scrambling up some eggs.

"Hey, you. How'd you sleep?" Meredith asked back.

"Great! It's uh, definitely different from Peru and all of its jungles," Jude replied.

"You'd think," Meredith replied.

Jude chuckled, "Need any help?"

"No, I'm good, but thanks. I figured I'd scramble up some eggs, make some bacon, and you guys could just have cereal or something," Meredith said back.

"I can do bacon!" Jude volunteered.

"Sweetie, you just got back from Peru," Meredith reasoned.

"Mom, I was working, I'm not an invalid," Jude said.

"Alright, fine if you really want to help," Meredith said back.

"I do," Jude replied. He got the bacon from the fridge and found another sauté pan.

"Smells great in here," a voice said. Meredith turned around as soon as she saw her husband Dean. She smiled and he pulled his wife into his arms.

"Hi, baby," he said, before kissing her.

"Aw come on guys," Jude groaned.

"Hey, I thought you were past that whole 'kissing girls is gross' phase," Dean said.

"I am but uh… not when my parents do it. You guys used to like, full on make out in front of me. I haven't missed this part one bit," Jude said, shaking his head.

"You haven't missed what part?" Victoria asked, coming into the kitchen. Her hair was still damp from her shower but she had dried it enough. She was all ready and dressed for school as she sat down.

"Mom and Dad making out in the kitchen every morning," Jude replied.

"Oh, yeah, can't wait to stop waking up to that every morning," Victoria added.

"Hey, we're not that bad!" Meredith protested.

"We have toned it down a little bit," Dean added.

"Sure," Victoria and Jude both said, unconvinced.

"Good morning, fellow Winchesters!" John called, coming into the room and taking a piece of bacon right from the frying pan.

"Watch out. It's hot," Meredith warned, shaking her head at her son as he didn't listen to her.

"Why are you so cheery this morning?" Jude asked, giving his younger brother a funny look.

"Oh you know, beautiful day," John replied casually.

"Yeah, that or the skank that he spent last night with seems to have put him in a good mood," Victoria said. John's eyes widened and he made a motion towards Victoria that read 'don't say anything or you're dead'.

"Victoria, watch the language!" Meredith exclaimed.

"Sorry, Mom," Victoria muttered.

"Ohhhh John is in his skank phase. Typical," Jude snickered.

"What?" Victoria asked.

"Oh come on. Every Winchester man goes through his skank phase. It's like a rite of passage. Isn't it, Dad?" Jude asked back.

"Oh God," Meredith groaned.

"Well uh, I guess you could say- oh who am I kidding, I'll just be honest with you. Hell yeah it is!" Dean admitted, joining the boys in their riled up conversation.

"Oh don't encourage him, Dad," Victoria said, rolling her eyes at her immature brothers.

"So… Mom if Dad had his skank phase, does that mean before you were all nice and homey and teacherly, that you had a-." John started.

"No, I was not the least bit skanky!" Meredith interjected, defending herself.

"But she does look hot dressed like one. There was this one hunt at a strip bar that-," Dean smirked.

"Aw Dad," Jude groaned.

"We didn't need to know that!" John exclaimed, covering his ears.

"See what you started?" Victoria shot back. Jude just stuck his tongue out at his younger sister. Finally, Flynn came into the kitchen and looked around at his family.

"I feel like I missed something," he said, before going to the cabinets and getting out a box of cereal. Flynn grabbed a bowl for his cereal and sat down at the kitchen table as soon as he saw that the milk was already out on the table.

"Well, we were just talking about Mom and her stripper days," John joked.

"Mom, you were a stripper?" Flynn exclaimed in surprise.

"No, I was not a stripper! John, stop talking," I said.

"Hey, Victoria started it with bringing up something that I wasn't doing last night… at all. I was just out with a couple of friends. We went out and got food, drove around some. You guys have nothing to worry about," John lied, shamelessly.

"Right," Flynn mumbled to himself, not buying into his older brother's lie.

"I didn't start this. Jude started it with his talk of the Winchester rite of passage of the skank phase," Victoria shot back.

"I did not!" Jude protested.

"You did too," Victoria argued back.

"I did not. You're stupid," Jude said.

"You're stupider," Victoria shot back.

"No, you're stupider," Jude said.

"Kids, let's just agree to disagree on this one. It doesn't matter who started this one and your mother is not a stripper," Dean intervened.

"Thank you, honey," I said, kissing Dean once.

"You're welcome, babe," Dean smirked.

"Okay the eggs are done. Why don't we all just try to sit down to a nice breakfast and try not to kill each other?" I suggested.

"Sounds great, Mom," John said.

"Suck up," Jude coughed.

"I'm going to get the paper," Flynn said, before excusing himself from the kitchen. He loved his family but sometimes he needed a little peace and quiet. Flynn went outside, shading his eyes from the bright sun as he walked up the driveway to get the paper. He picked up but couldn't help but notice a girl on the edge of the driveway right next to their house. He hadn't seen her before. She had wavy blonde hair and green eyes. She gave him a friendly smile and he smiled back.

"I haven't seen you around," Flynn said.

"Yeah, we just moved in a couple of days ago. I'm Paige. Paige Gallagher," she said, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Flynn Winchester," Flynn introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you, Flynn. I should get back in and finish up breakfast but it was nice meeting you. Do you go to Sioux Falls High school?" she asked.

"Yeah, I do actually," Flynn replied. She was pretty… really pretty. Flynn couldn't help noticing. She was wearing short boxer shorts. She had nice legs. Ugh, he sounded like his brother, John.

"Cool, well uh, maybe we'll run into each other," she said, smiling before going back inside her house.

Flynn was left standing there in wonder of the pretty girl that had practically ambushed him. It was like getting hit by a big yellow school bus. He sure hadn't seen that coming but he was left wondering who she was. He wanted to get to know her. That was for sure.

John, Flynn, and Victoria all walked into school together from the Comet. Their mother and father had taken the Impala and had gone into school earlier than all of them.

"Hey, Winchesters," Renee said, joining the three.

Renee was John's age but the least close to John. She and John had been best friends growing up. Her parents and John's parents were sure that they'd fall in love when they grew up, but ever since high school, the two had drifted apart due to the fact that all John cared about was being popular and getting laid. Renee hated that about him and wanted her old John back. She had quit their friendship because she knew that she was going to get him back. Now, they were civil to each other because their families were so close and they were forced to see each other so often out of school, but other than civil, they didn't go anywhere past that.

"Hey, Renee," Victoria smiled, seeing her friend.

John nodded and Flynn smiled at their friend.

"I've got an AP Chem lab in and I want to get there early but I figured I'd stop by and say 'hi'. I'll see you guys later," Renee said.

John watched as Renee walked away. Renee Walsh was their Aunt Molly and Uncle Ethan's daughter. Ever since freshmen year, Renee had stopped talking to him. He missed her and he couldn't help but notice how much she had grown up. John scratched the back of his head as he stopped at his locker. She looked like a super model. It wouldn't hurt if he tried to get close to her again, would it? Why did they even part anyways? John had no idea and was going to try his hardest to make amends with Renee – not just because she was hot. Okay maybe a little because of that…

Victoria and Flynn's lockers were right next to his. It was alphabetical.

"Hey, you ready for another long class of English? I hate our freshmen English class. The only good thing is that you and Haley are in it," Flynn said.

"What about me?" Haley asked, coming up to her locker, which was right next to Flynn's.

"Nothing. Just talking about English class," Victoria answered.

"Oh. You think we'll get your mom for Junior English?" Haley asked, taking out her English notebook and reading book from her locker.

"I don't know but I hear Mom's class is actually like… good," Victoria said. "This one is so boring."

"Yeah. I guess that's what happens when your mom brings you up on tons of literature. Thanks, Mom," Flynn said, playfully sarcastic.

"How are you two this morning?" Haley asked, curiously.

"Good. You?" Flynn asked back.

"Fine," Haley replied, waiting for Victoria's response.

"Alright. A little disturbed from the conversation in the kitchen earlier this morning," Victoria said, laughing a little. Her family was so crazy and while it could be terribly traumatizing, it was hilarious at the same time.

"Do I even want to know?" Haley asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No, but I've got to go. I told Mr. Rosen that I'd be there early to talk about redoing my vocab quiz," Flynn said, before heading to class.

"Ugh, Jude started it but somehow we started talking about the notorious Winchester skank phase and how Mom and Dad used to and still do screw like weasels, which is an extremely disturbing image I would like to get out of my head," Victoria said back.

"I agree. Totally disturbing image. Ah, John is still with that Jamie Callahan girl?" Haley asked.

"Yep. He was out all night last night," Victoria answered.

"I thought we didn't like her. She came to the fourth of July right?" Haley asked.

"Yeah, but that means he's almost done with her. It's been about… a month and a half maybe. God, my brother is such a pig sometimes," Victoria said, rolling her eyes as they walked to their first period class.
"Hey, man, what's up?" John asked, as soon as Cole met him at his locker. Flynn, Victoria, and Haley watched the two cousins as they did some kind of bro-handshake.

"Not much. Hey, I heard about you and Jamie Callahan. Nice, dude," Cole, Jude's cousin said.

"Just wait till senior year, dude. You're going to love it," John smirked – the same smirk of his father's.

Cole and Haley Winchester were Sam and Sawyer's kids and were really close with their cousins. The Winchesters had practically taken over Sioux Falls high school with the exception of Renee who was a Walsh but it was fine because she grew up with them. They were family! John was captain of the football team, Cole played football and was one of the star players, Renee was beautiful and a high contender for valedictorian. Haley, Flynn, and Victoria were just starting high school and had big shoes to fill.

Renee shut her locker only to see John Winchester leaning up against the lockers. She raised an eyebrow as soon as she saw the look he was giving her.

"Renee Walsh. It's been too long," John cooed,

"John Winchester," she started, mimicking his tone. "No it hasn't."

"Oh come on. We used to be really good friends," John said.

"Yeah, key word used to," Renee pointed out. "Look, what do you want, John? I'm really not in the mood right now."

"I'm always in the mood," John smirked. Renee rolled her eyes, turning around to go to her next class. "Renee, wait! I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. Look, I'm uh, having some trouble in Pre-Calc class so since you're in AP Calc I thought maybe you could help me out. After your mom is best friends with my mom… just think of it as a family favor."

Renee sighed, "Since when have you cared about school?"

John shrugged, "Since… now I guess. Look I'm kinda failing and my mom is going to kill me if I don't get my grade up. Please."

"I'll have someone set you up with a tutor at the school tutor center," Renee offered, coldly.

"Come on, Renee. I don't want to be tutored by some dweeb that I don't know. I'll- how about I take you out for a burger, we'll catch up, you can see that I'm not such a bad guy, and then you can think about it," John proposed.

Renee raised an eyebrow, "What is this? The fifties?"

John shrugged, "I'm a guy who loves the classics."

Renee rolled her eyes at John's comment, "I'll think about it," she sighed before beginning to walk away.

"You won't regret it. I promise you," John called from down the hall. Renee just shook her head, a small smile on her face. She hated John sometimes, but she had to admit that his charm always got to her. Was this how Meredith felt about Dean? She knew that Dean was like this in his day, so how the hell did her Aunt Meredith fall so hard for him?

"Miss Winchester, your lab partner dropped the class but luckily a new transfer student will be subbing in for him. This is Tyler Gallagher. He's new so make him feel welcomed," Victoria's AP Biology teacher, Mr. Hart said.

"Hi," Victoria said, seeing her new lab partner. He was tall and really handsome. She couldn't help but smile when she saw him. She had really lucked out on this one. Her old lab partner was a know it all and was annoying as hell but this guy was… so cute! "I'm Victoria." She offered her hand for the boy to shake.

"I'm Tyler Gallagher. I'm new here," he said.

"I see that," Victoria chuckled as she showed him to their table. "What year are you?"

"Sophomore. Yeah, every class teachers like to point out the fact that I'm new. It's uh… it's a little-," Tyler started.

"Agitating?" Victoria offered up.

"That's putting it nicely. It's like, I know I'm new. I don't need a constant reminder of it. How about you? How long have you lived here?" Tyler asked.

"All my life… so I'm kind of the opposite of you," Victoria said.

Tyler laughed. He had a really cute smile.

"Well, how about you show me around some time? After all, we are lab partners so we'll probably end up spending a lot of time with each other anyway," Tyler asked.

"Yeah, sure," she said. She laughed. "Believe me. You're about ten times better than my last lab partner."

"Oh yeah?" Tyler asked.

"Yeah," Victoria replied, before digressing into her horror stories of her previous lab partner. She and Tyler just clicked.

"So what year are you?" Tyler asked.

"I'm a freshmen actually," Victoria admitted.

"Woah! And you're in an AP bio class?" Tyler asked in amazement.

"Yeah. I tested in. Uh… my brother's in a pre-med program so… maybe it runs in the family?" Victoria proposed. Tyler chuckled. The class soon was over and they had lunch period.

"Hey, I know you're new here and stuff so, do you want to come sit with me and some friends? You don't have to or anything but if you want to," Victoria asked, nervously.

"Sure," Tyler replied, his face lighting up. Victoria and Tyler talked and laughed all the way to the lunch room where Victoria scoped out her family's table. Haley was sitting alone with a book and Victoria watched as John, Cole, and Flynn crowded her. Renee joined them to relieve Haley of her pain.

"Hey, Tyler, where are we sitting?" a voice asked. Victoria turned around to see a petite blonde girl standing behind the two.

"Uh, I was going to sit with my friend Victoria. You can come too, if that's alright," Tyler said, asking Victoria.

"Of course. There's plenty of room. My family's pretty welcoming too," Victoria added.

"Family?" the blonde girl asked.

"Yeah, I have two brothers at the school, two cousins, and one pseudo cousin. It's a… a long story. Oh and warning, they can be a little overwhelming sometimes so I apologize for anything they say or do. Please don't take it to heart," Victoria chuckled.

"I'm Paige, by the way," the girl introduced herself.

"Victoria," Victoria replied.

"I see you've met my goof a brother," she said.

"Yeah, we're lab partners in bio," Victoria replied. They approached the table to see the Winchesters plus one Walsh all there.

"Hey, guys. This is Tyler and this is-," Victoria started.

"Paige!" Flynn smiled, seeing the blonde girl.

"You two know each other?" Victoria asked.

"Yeah. We just met this morning getting the paper. We're your new neighbors," Paige replied. She smiled at Flynn and took a seat right next to them.

"Okay, well, I guess that's taken care of. Tyler this is my family. Flynn and John are my brothers, Cole, Haley, and Renee are all cousins," Victoria replied.

"Wow," Tyler said, a little overwhelmed.

"You'll get used to them," Victoria chuckled. She knew her family could be overwhelming sometimes but she loved them just the same. It seemed like they were getting along with Tyler too. If he didn't like her family, well that was obviously a no-go. But he seemed like he did. This was going to be an interesting year.
