Dean was nervous. He knew that Sam had heard him and Castiel talking about what would happen once his soul restored. He had learned quickly that Sam was dangerous without his soul. He missed his brother. Who would have thought that somebody's soul would make that much of a difference? He had to make it right. It was his job to protect Sam. Dean knew that the Death thing was a longshot, but he had done more with less. His thoughts were interrupted by Bobby.

"Nikki's singing again. If you go through the yard you can really hear her belt." Bobby smile obviously fond of her.

Dean smiled thinking about Nikki and her kick ass pie. More than that she had touched him with her words and he knew that she meant what she said. Dean walked closer to Sam, who was also standing in the yard listening to her sing. He didn't recognize the song, but her voice was so beautiful, just like her.

"Wouldn't it be sweet" Nikki's voice echoed through the cars making it hauntingly beautiful. "If you could be in love with me? The way that I'm in love with you. It's so easy to do. All you've got to do is fall in love. All you've got to do is fall in love. All you've got to do is fall in love with me."

Sam smirked. He would almost bet that she was singing for him. Not that it really mattered to him. He wanted her and nothing would stop him. He looked over his shoulder and noticed Dean watching him. He gave Dean a small smile before turning back to stare in the direction of Nikki's house. He was pissed that she called him out, but for her just to know at a glance meant something. It meant that she knew him. It bothered him that he didn't know more about her. She wasn't the type that would fall for his gentle giant with puppy dog eyes thing. But there was no way he was going to let Crowley have her. In Sam's mind she was already his. Bobby, Dean, and Sam were at full attention when they heard a car coming down the road. It was Sheriff Mills. Bobby walked to meet her car and smiled.

"Jody." He acknowledged.

"Bobby." She smiled putting her car in park and getting out. She leaned against her car and noticed Sam and Dean not far off. "Boys." She greeted.

Bobby smiled at her. "What can I do ya' for?" He asked.

"Got a call from Dawn Smink. She was telling me about a strange man watching one of your neighbors. Thought I'd ask and see if ya'll saw anything." Jody was all business. Nikki was very near and dear to her and if some creep was watching her house, she damn well wanted to know why.

"Which neighbor?" Bobby asked. He already knew that Jody was talking about Nikki, but he didn't want to let on that he knew her and who was watching her.

"The house with the big red door. Her name is Nikki Grant." She explained. Just then, Nikki's voice drifted in with the last lines of the song she was singing. "All you've got to do is fall in love. All you've got to do is fall in love. All you've got to do is fall in love with me." Jody smiled.

"It's such a shame that poor girl is so anti-social." Jody observed.

Bobby nodded. "Met her once. She seems nice, but I hear her everyday." Jody smiled.

"She has one hell of a voice." She commented. The boys nodded in agreement.

"What's her story?" Sam asked extremely curious about her. Dean was glad that Sam had asked because he was curious too.

"She has been in town for six years. I'll never forget the first time I met her..." Jody started. The memory would forever be in her brain.

It had rained very heavily for several hours. Jody sat at her desk doing paperwork when a 911 call came in.

"Sheriff Mills, there is some crazy woman running down the street." The 911 operator, Paigent Woods, told her.

"In this weather?" Jody shook her head. "She's probably drunk." She muttered under her breath. "I'll handle it." Sheriff Mills told Paigent.

Jody got into her police car and drove towards the street that the woman had been seen. It didn't take long to find her. She had stopped at the park and was crying in front of the swings. Jody parked and got out, carefully approaching the woman. "Ma'am, I'm Sheriff Mills, are you hurt?" She shouted. The woman acted like she didn't hear her, so Jody kept creeping forward. She was talking to someone.

"Why can't I just tell them?" she sobbed.

"Ma'am?" Sheriff Mills shouted.

"What am I suppose to do to fill in all those years?" the woman asked the swing set.

Jody looked around trying to see if someone was there talking to her, she didn't see anyone. Finally the woman looked at Jody. She looked exhausted. Her cloths looked soaked through and she didn't have any shoes on. Her long dark hair was plaster to her body. She was shaking and her lips were starting to turn blue. Something was wrong with this woman. She finally closed the gap between the two and the woman turned her head to look at Jody. The woman's shoulder was covered in blood. She looked Jody square in the eyes and dropped to her knees. Jody put her hand on the woman's arm.

"Are you alright?" Jody asked her.

The woman looked up and shook her head. "No." she sobbed.

"Let's get you out of the rain and you can tell me what happened." Jody took the woman by the arm and helped her off the ground. "What's your name hon?"

The woman looked at her and let out a heart breaking sob. "He says he won't come back to see me. I have to wait til I'm dead before I can see him again."

"Who?" Jody asked.

"God is hiding in a little boy." She said confusing Jody. "He wants me to wait. He says I'll be safe for many years, but I have to be ready. Why won't he let me help them?"

"Ma'am, have you been drinking?" Jody asked her. She was worried that something was wrong with the woman. She began thinking that maybe she'd run away from the psych ward of a hospital. She made a mental note to check it out.

"I'm not crazy. God is a little boy." She screamed. It looked like she was having a mental breakdown. "They will come for me. When they find out what he told me, what I am to be, they will all try to take me!"

"I won't let nobody take you away hon. Let's just get you out of the cold. Your shoulder is bleeding. I have a first-aid kit in the car." she let the woman.

Jody finally got the woman calmed down. "What's your name?"

"Nikki." She answered in a small voice.

"Nikki, I'm Sheriff Jody Mills. How did you get hurt?" She asked as she looked at the wound.

"I'm not physically hurt." She replied.

"You are. Your shoulder looks pretty nasty." She took a rag and cleaned the wound. It looked like a small hand print.

"He touched my shoulder and told me that he loves me and to be patient." She explained.

Nikki started to convulse. Jody thought that she might be having a seizure. She passed out in the back seat of her vehicle. Jody drove her to the hospital and stayed with her until she woke up. Nikki had no recollection of the night before.

"'She felt bad about it later...made me the best pie I've ever had. I try to look in on her every now and again. She really is an amazing woman. You know ever since I've learned what is really out there, I've often wondered if she just went crazy or if she is mixed up in the kinda stuff ya'll take care of." Jody explained.

Bobby, Dean, and Sam stood frozen in place soaking up the information they had just heard. "Balls!" Bobby said.

"So, I take it that she's mixed up in something that I can't help her with. Dammit Nikki." Jody swore. "Bobby, can ya'll keep an eye out on her? I'll do whatever I can for her, but..." Dean cut her off.

"We'll do everything we can to help her." Dean told her.

"I'd feel better if ya' did." She answered. Jody sighed. "I've got to get back." She told them walking towards her car. "Nikki is special. I'd hate it if something bad happened to her." With that she left the boys with millions of questions running through their heads.
