Bobby watched as Ashley stormed away. What she had said had hurt him but he had to put that behind and drill the Winchesters to find out which one of them was his daughter's baby daddy.
"So, boys I suggest you tell me 'cause I'm sure as hell not going let you off with anything like Ashley got off with" Bobby threatened keeping his focuses on Sam, knowing it was more likely that he would break unless in fact he was the one who had slept with Ashley, in that case Dean would be most likely to crack.
"Well, which one of you is gonna confess or am I gonna have to do this the hard way, hmm?" Bobby asked eying up both Winchesters who stood perfectly still and avoided eye contact with the pissed off wheel chair bound man.
Bobby had a suspicion on who it was that had, in his eyes, violated his baby girl but he wanted to hear from either one of them or his daughter. Sam and Dean both look to each other. Sam could see a glimmer of fear hid behind Dean's eyes, Bobby was going to kill him there was no doubt about it.
After looking to his brother Sam looked back to Bobby, "Uh, it was me Bobby..." Sam falsely confessed shifting his weight through the discomfort he now felt seeing the older man's icy glare carving into him. Bobby began to advance on Sam who continued to move further back.
"No Bobby it was me!" Dean confessed in an attempt to stop his baby brother from being slaughtered in his defence by the man they consider to be like a father to them. Bobby's eyebrows rose and he looked over to Dean.
"No Dean! It was me Bobby, I swear!" Sam countered, trying to give Dean time to get away or run or anything of that nature.
"Boys stop jerking me around!" Bobby shouted as he began to advance between the pair, more so toward Sam. He was no longer sure that it was Dean, after Sam's sudden confession he didn't know which to believe.
"Daddy, stop it!" Ashley called from the kitchen door way. Her father turned toward her and she looked up at both Winchesters in turn. First Sam, who looked like he may have actually crapped himself, then Dean, who pleaded with his eyes. Ashley was sure that her father would give Dean nothing but a good talking to, but it didn't make her feel any better about what she was going to do.
"Leave Sam alone" she whispered staring down at the floor. She heard her father's wheelchair turn around again and begin to slowly move in the opposite direction. He wasn't headed toward her or either of the Winchesters. Ashley looked up to see her father headed for the cupboard then grabbing out a bottle of whiskey and a glass. She then watched her father skull half of the bottle.
"Dad!" she shouted and pulled the bottle out of his hand, replaced the lid then hid the whiskey in the top cupboard where she knew he couldn't reach. "Drinking is not the answer... Ever... I thought you may have learnt that after my little story this morning..." Ashley stated, "I mean that's how we ended up here..." she offered, her father's chest began to rise and fall at a faster pace.
"DEAN!" he yelled and turned his chair, he began advancing again but Ashley grabbed his chair.
"DAD! Why don't we all sit down and do the mature, oh who am I kidding, girly thing and talk about it..." Ashley offered and rolled her father's chair to the table then locked it; she gestured for Dean to sit down then looked to Sam. "Well Sam, you have the right to either run or take a chair..." she half smiled then sat down herself in the seat across from Dean, next to her father. Sam took the seat next to Dean then everyone looked to Bobby.
"Well are you gonna tell him?" Bobby asked looking at his daughter expectantly.
"What? NO! Not until I figure out what I'm doing... there's no need to screw up his life as well!" Ashley rebutted in a whisper to avoid either of the brother's hearing. "Okay, well, what's done is done and it's in the past... agreed?" Ashley asked hoping to put it behind them.
"How'd it happen?" Bobby asked trying to keep himself in check and not have another outburst again.
"Wait, you wanna know details?" Dean asked sounding slightly disgusted that Bobby would want to know what went down between Dean and his daughter.
"Not those kind of details ya idjit!" Bobby countered angrily and went to say more but Ashley stopped him.
"He means in the bar, Dean!" Ashley yelled at Dean who now looked slightly embarrassed at his sudden assumption.
"No, I want to know how you ended up in the bar as well..." Bobby informed Ashley with a look that told her that it wasn't an option and that he didn't completely believe the story she had fed him earlier.
"Okay... We'll start with that then shall we...?" Ashley suggested looking away from her father. "I was on my way back from visiting Blaine in South Carolina, after breaking it off with him..." Ashley began, pausing to swallow and try to keep the images of him in bed with her best friend.
"Why?" Dean let slip before he could stop himself. Ashley looked up to him with a curious expression that matched Dean's. "Why did you break it off with him?" Dean asked slightly more confidently the second time, Sam kicked Dean's leg gesturing for him to stop.
"Why did I break it off with him? Because I caught the bastard in bed with my best friend..." Ashley answered simply yet harshly. "Anyway, I just happened to decide to stop in Illinois on my way... Sort of like a half way..." Ashley explained then looked toward her father to see whether he was satisfied with that, it seemed he was.
"And you boys had just finished a case... Okay so now we're at the bar..." Bobby filled in the prompted for them to continue.
"Well anyway, we walked into the bar. Sam went to grab a booth and I went to get a couple of beers... Ashley was sitting at the bar, she hadn't been served yet but the bar tender came to me first and I got three beers gave one to her then went back to Sam... It was to let her simmer a little but when I got back to the table and pointed her out to Sam he went and walked up to her" Dean began his side of the explanation, he looked at his brother to continue.
"Well yeah, I had recognised Ashley; we had gone to school together for about a month when I was in twelfth grade and she was the only person who even spoke to me. So I went over and invited her to come over and sit with Dean and me" Sam finished with a small smile which was quickly erased when he looked at Bobby.
Ashley rolled her eyes, "When Sam had walked in I knew he seemed sort of familiar but I couldn't place him, when he came over and gave me hug I completely remembered so I accepted his invitation to come sit with him and his brother" Ashley added her part in then looked to one of the guys to continue, truth be told that night was a little hazy for her and by the look of determination to remember on Dean's face the night wasn't exactly clear for him either.
Sam laughed and shook his head. "After the first round of beers we went onto more beers sided with whiskey shots, after awhile I left knowing that my hangover would be bad enough without adding more alcohol to it. When I was leaving this pair had ditched the beers and were doing shots" Sam finished trying to speak as seriously as he could, remembering that Ashley was winning the shot line as he left.
"Okay, well by this time I was pissed but I was still drinking. I looked at the time, can't even remember what it was now but I needed to be getting to sleep so I could catch an early rise in the morning. So I told Dean I had to go and well he gave me a kiss goodnight but it didn't end at one. Next thing I knew we were outside of the bar and on the way to the motel across the road..." Ashley finished avoiding her father's gaze and staring into Dean's eyes and he was staring back.
"She was gone before I woke up the next morning" Dean added not breaking the gaze he and Ashley were sharing.
"I stole your key and left Sam a note" Ashley smiled as she remembered what she had done, "And the rest of your clothes..." she whispered.
Dean shook his head and couldn't help but smirk, he dropped his head to look at the table and Ashley looked to her father who was now looking at Dean. "Well it can't have been that great; she couldn't even remember your name this morning..." Bobby spat harshly.
Ashley's jaw dropped and she stared at her father. Dean raised an eyebrow, "Why would she need to remember my name this morning? Cause she didn't have any trouble remembering when I had her screaming it..." Dean asked eying up both father and daughter then added the cheeky remark while his eyes stayed planted on Ashley, whose jaw dropped.
Bobby growled slightly and Ashley grabbed his chair again but kept her jaw dropped and continued to stare at Dean. Sam cleared his throat obviously uncomfortable with where the conversation had headed.
"DEAN! Uh, I had a little confession this morning..." Ashley tried to quickly make up and excuse that sounded even vaguely viable.
"Did you use protection?" Bobby growled, hoping for his daughter's sake that she hadn't lied to him about that.
"Of course! I'm not gonna go try and get a stranger pregnant" Dean said with a chuckle. Both Ashley and Bobby froze that he used the most stupid explanation he used, especially considering the situation he didn't even know he was in yet.
Ashley had to try and deter everyone's attention from what Dean had just stupidly said. "Daddy I didn't lie to you about that!" Ashley shouted and looked at her father who was still glaring at Dean.
"I don't think you boys should stay tonight" Bobby whispered aiming his statement mainly at Dean but he still included Sam in it.
"Dad, there are two free guest rooms... Do you really think I would go and do it again? I'm already in as much trouble as I can be when it comes to that..." Ashley whispered attempting to avoid the boys hearing her.
"No Ashley, it's okay, if Bobby would prefer we leave, we'll leave" Dean offered standing and his brother following his lead.
"No! Dad, like you said, they're your friends... I'll camp outside... You can put a padlock on my door... I'll sleep in the freaking panic room!" Ashley ended yelling, pushing her father to get the point that she wasn't letting them pay to go to a dingy motel when they could just as easily stay with them.
"Fine, but if I find out there's been any funny business you boys won't be welcome back here when Ashley's here" Bobby finally agreed then looked to see if Ashley was satisfied with his answer, she had a content smile on her face.
"Yes sir" Both Sam and Dean agreed with Bobby's condition.
After agreeing with his daughter, Bobby rolled toward the doorway of the kitchen then turned himself around, "Ashley can I speak to you for a moment... Alone" he asked then continued to roll into his study.
"Yes Daddy?" Ashley asked as she followed him into the study and sat down in the couch that was placed across from his desk.
"Are you gonna tell the boy? He has a right to know" Bobby spoke calmly as he nonchalantly flipped through one of the books he had laying on his desk.
"I know he has the right to know Daddy but... Shouldn't we try and be friends, or at least be on speaking terms, before I tell him he is gonna to be a father to the child that I'm carrying?" Ashley asked her father honestly, trying to convince herself that that was the right thing for her to do.
Bobby sighed, "I suppose your right... But do something for me... Tell him before you start showing, tell him not force him to find out, cause it may not seem like it, but those boys are like the sons I never had" Bobby said making Ashley promise that she would comply and she nodded then gave her father a hug.
"I promise, Daddy. Guess that means I got a month, maybe a month and a half. Well I better start getting to know some Winchesters huh?" Ashley smiled, trying to sound cheery but truth was she was more scared about telling Dean that she was having his child than she was about actually having the child and boy was she scared about that.
Ashley came out of the study to see Sam and Dean play fighting over the TV remote. She smiled then came up behind them and leant on the couch. "So what are the choices?" Ashley asked, intending to choose the better show out of the two.
"Dr Sexy MD or..." Dean began but before he could finish Ashley jumped over the back of the couch.
"Dr Sexy MD's on?" she asked grabbing the remote, switching it to the right channel then laying herself out across Sam and Dean. "I can't believe last week Shannon and Nicholas got together, and Nicholas is actually the father to Shannon's illegitimate twin sister, Penny's, unborn child!" Ashley relayed the content of the previous show.
"Didn't Penny tell Bradley he was the father?" Dean asked remembering the last thing he had seen. Sam looked at both of them and shook his head with a chuckle.
"No, well yeah, but she only said that to get back at Kate for sleeping with Nathan who is apparently Shannon's long lost drug addict husband, duh" Ashley replied, ignoring Sam and engrossing herself with in the show.
Ashley had her legs lying across Dean and her head on Sam's lap; neither of them seemed to mind too much. Something of Ashley's interest happened on the show and she flipped up and changed her position so she now sat in between the brothers. The show finally finished and Ashley was gobsmacked.
"I can't believe that Penny's having twins and one is Nicholas's and the other is her illegitimate twin sister, Shannon's, drug addict husband Nathan's!" Ashley stated her disbelief then stood up satisfied that she was able to watch the show without needing to be sick.
"I'm hungry... I feel like strawberries" Ashley muttered to herself as she left the room and re-entered the kitchen. "Are you guys hungry? There's left over chicken and vegetables that I can actually stand the smell of!" she called to the Winchesters.
"Dr Sexy MD then food, I can see why we hit it off so well!" Dean whispered excitedly to Sam as the pair made their way back to the kitchen for food. Sam shook his head and chuckled at his brother once again.
