AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Okay, so this chapter has Melanie in it and some romance.

There is also some humor and lots of language.

I apologize now for Anna and Ruby's nicknames—not because of what they are, but for how many times they're said.

ENJOY!!

Melanie crossed a name off of her list and then looked at the body of what used to be a man. The poor bastard had been possessed, and the demon left nothing but a dead carcass behind when Melanie had to exorcise the demon out. Melanie sighed a little and then burned the body and cleaned up after herself, heading home and opening the door up slowly.

"Dad?" Melanie asked softly.

Bobby came out into the hallway. "There you are, Melanie! Kalli's been here for a good hour now."

Melanie nodded and took her coat off—she and Kalli were Bobby's daughters. She and Kalli had different mothers, and they'd grown up away from each other. They'd known each other existed, but they hadn't met until about 8 years ago when Melanie was 16 and Kalli was 12. Since then they'd grown really close together, but Kalli hadn't wanted to hunt like Melanie had…until she decided to hunt secretly 4 years ago.

"Take a chill pill, Dad." Melanie told him. "I'm here now."

"Kyla called and asked where you were—your phone's been off." Bobby said.

Melanie shrugged. "I was in the middle of an important hunt."

Bobby shushed her and Kalli rolled her eyes.

"I know about all the hunting stuff, Daddy—I just don't do it." Kalli told him. "Now can we all have dinner please?"

Bobby sighed and nodded, serving them some pizza on plates. There was some chicken and Chinese to choose from too, and Melanie and Kalli had a good laugh about Bobby's lack of cooking skills before Bobby's cell phone rang. Bobby picked it up and headed out of the room, leaving Melanie and Kalli alone.

"So…how was the hunt?" Kalli asked cautiously, trying not to let her sister know that she was actually genuinely curious about it and not just trying to make conversation.

Melanie shrugged. "It sucked—the demon left this poor bastard's dead carcass behind when I exorcised him. I wish I could just convince Kyla to make more Colt rounds—she could get rich selling them to hunters."

Kalli nodded absent-mindedly. "She just wants to live a normal life, Mel."

Melanie nodded too. "I know…I just think she needs to realize that her life isn't normal. She has a half/angelic son, and a husband that her ex dragged out of Hell."

"Wait a minute…Castiel and Kyla were an item?" Kalli asked Melanie.

"Decades ago…her actions on her love for him are the reason she fell from grace and started over her life as a human baby." Melanie told her. "I haven't mentioned that before?"

"No…you failed to mention that." Kalli said. "Wow…they're family is really messed up."

Melanie laughed a little. "You have no idea. Everything's so much more messed up with Sam banging that ugly demon."

"Think he's gotten any demonic STD's from Ruby?" Kalli asked with a laugh of her own.

Melanie smiled at her sister. "You know…I'll have to ask him that next time I see him."

Kyla had finished setting the table and Trevor had been fed and was sitting in his playpen in his room when Dean came up to the house. The door on their house had a window on it with curtains pulled across it, so Kyla knew her husband had returned home. She opened the door happily after smoothing down her hair, to see her husband staring at the road.

"Welcome home, Baby!" Kyla said happily.

Dean turned to face her sadly, and forced a smile. Kyla saw right through it though, and her smile faded. She wrapped her arms around her husband's neck, and though it took him a moment to respond, he wrapped his arms around her too.

"You look like you had a really bad day, Baby." Kyla told him.

He nodded into her a little, closing his eyes as her lips collided with his. He had missed this—missed her. The warmth of her body against his, the taste of her lips as they moved rhythmically against his. She still smelled just as wonderful as she always had, and he found himself kissing her back passionately. This is what lust mingled with love was like—this is how he had remembered it. He also remembered that it felt so much better to give in.

He smiled into the kiss a little as Kyla backed them up towards their bedroom. He remembered the path there just as she did, even with their eyes closed. Their bed was on the far wall of their room directly under the window, directly across the room from the door for a reason. When Kyla's legs hit the foot of the bed, she let herself fall onto it, Dean falling on top of her. She giggled a little, helping Dean get his shirt off as he fumbled with it, and as he started lifting her shirt up, they found themselves breaking apart from their kiss and turning to a voice.

"Mommy…my diaper." Trevor said in a slightly whining voice.

"Oh, Buddy…" Kyla told him, looking at Dean who looked at her too. "You think you'll still be in the mood in like a minute?"

"Maybe." Dean told her.

Kyla nodded, and pushed on Dean just a little, him rolling off of her and watching his wife get up and pull her shirt back down over her stomach. She took Trevor's hand and then opened the door and glared.

"Sam, stop drinking Demon Skank's blood and will you please change Trevor?" Kyla asked.

Ruby had her legs wrapped around Sam's waist as he held her there as he stood up to feed from her sternum like some kind of retarded vampire, and he dropped his hold on her, and she caught herself, but was upset at how fast Sam had let go of her. Trevor cowered a little at the sight of Ruby, and she knew it was her cue to go back into Sam's room.

"Pease Aunt Sammy?" Trevor asked him as Kyla told him to go ask Uncle Sammy to change his diaper.

Sam nodded and motioned for Trevor to come over to him, and then he looked at Kyla.

"Then can you come and put him back into his room?" Kyla asked.

"Oh…while you two are practically having sex?" Sam asked her, picking Trevor up to take him to the changing table in the Living Room.

Kyla rolled her eyes. "I just need to get him back into the mood, but we won't actually be having sex with each other until after you drop Trevor off in his crib in his room."

Sam rolled his eyes too and went to change Trevor, Kyla turning around to see Dean sitting up on their bed with a look on his face. Kyla realized that she'd said something about Sam drinking Ruby's blood and she ran her fingers through her hair and unzipped her jeans for him, getting onto the bed and straddling him, sitting on his lap.

"What was that all about?" Dean asked her.

"I hate Demon Skank." Kyla replied.

Dean nodded. "Drinking blood?"

Kyla shrugged. "It was a really bad joke, Dean."

Kyla wanted to tell him the truth, but she knew it was Sam's place, and she didn't want Sam to retaliate and tell Dean about Castiel. It was her place to tell Dean about Castiel, and she didn't even want to do that. She kissed Dean softly, and smiled when he returned the kiss—there was definitely still love behind every kiss he gave her or let her steal from him, and she was glad that Hell hadn't changed how he felt about her. Kyla ran her fingers under the waste band of Dean's boxers, and he smirked a little.

"There he is!" Kyla exclaimed.

"What?" Dean asked her with a chuckle as Sam came in the door and went to put Trevor into his nursery.

Kyla stroked his hair. "Playful you…I've missed him a little."

Dean nodded and kissed Kyla as Sam slipped out of their room and closed the door behind him with a smile on his face—it was about time Kyla and Dean were patching up.

Sam shrugged a little as Ruby stood there in his room angry with him. He'd come back in, told her to go away, and she wanted to know why. Sam wasn't sure why—he'd wanted the demon blood so bad. Still, seeing Kyla and Dean happy with each other finally was making him want to actually be happy himself. He may have been drinking Ruby's blood and sometimes sleeping with her…but he didn't love her and he knew he never would.

"What is this, something you're doing for Angel Bitch?" Ruby asked him.

Sam gave her a look. "Hey…Kyla is the only one allowed to call people names like that. You're 'Demon Skank' and Anna's 'Angel Whore'."

Ruby nodded. "Which Kalli named Anna in the first place."

"Technically I think she named you 'Demon Skank' first too, but Kyla's the one who goes around using it as much as she can. She actually tries to find places in conversations to mention you two as 'Demon Skank' and 'Angel Whore'." Sam told her. "But no…this is not something I'm doing for Kyla—and don't call her a bitch again."

Ruby growled. "I'm out of here."

"Good idea—especially if you're going around calling Kyla, 'Angel Bitch'." Melanie said, having opened Sam's door on her own after letting herself in. "Sorry I didn't knock or anything…Kyla and Dean are all in there satisfying each other, and I figured I'd talk to you…without 'Demon Skank'."

Ruby angrily left Sam's room, and then Melanie shut the door behind her as she walked into Sam's room and he quickly got up off of his bed. He didn't want to make it look like he was inviting her into his bed or anything, and when she read his mind since her psychic abilities allowed her to that, she laughed a little.

"I'm not here for a quick bang or anything, Sammy." Melanie told him. "I'm here because Kyla is thinking about taking her grace back so she has the powers to fight in the war that's bound to be brought about."

"What? She didn't tell me that." Sam protested. "She tells me everything!"

"And you seem to be telling Ruby everything." Melanie reminded him. "Kyla doesn't want Ruby to know she's thinking of getting her grace back. There's going to be about a week probably where Kyla's going to have to pull some strings and get her human body back in order to come back here and protect her son—it'll be up to you and Dean to protect Trevor. However, she wanted to run it by me first and talk to me about it in depth today, but I got tied up in a hunt. I think she should do it, and you should protect her."

Sam nodded. "I'd do anything to protect her, Dean and Trevor."

Sam stepped up close to her and Melanie found herself having to catch her breath. She was still in love with Sam, and she still had feelings for him—lustful ones. She took a step back, but when Sam was suddenly kissing her, she kissed him back, unbuttoning her shirt and discarding it. She let him move them over to the bed, and let him pull her down on top of him. She knew she shouldn't be letting him, but she was—deep down she could still save him.

"I missed you." Sam told her.

Melanie just nodded, and kissed him to silence him.
