Dani had just walked into her office when her cell rang. Her brow furrowed when she didn't recognize the number. "Hello?"
"So what are you doing tomorrow night?" a deep voice asked.
Dani couldn't help but laugh as she recognized the obnoxious way the question was proposed to her. "It took you..." she looked at her watch sitting. "An hour before you gave in to call me. I am amazed at your self control."
"Hey I only have so much for a good looking woman like you."
Dani took a deep breath ignoring the comment, "Is tomorrow your last night in town?"
"Yup."
"Hmm," she mused. "What will we be doing if I agree to this?"
"You know the area better than me."
She laughed, "Well then what's the point of you asking me?"
"Why not ask you?" he countered.
She ran her tongue along her teeth knowing he had her there. Dani had to think about this because she still wasn't sure about Dean Winchester. He was very adamant about getting into bed with her when they first met and even now he was still at it.
"You there?" he asked.
"Yeah I was just thinking," she told him. "Well I know you like to eat so I'll surprise you with the restaurant."
"I don't have to wear a tie do I?" he asked sounding weary.
"Do you even own a tie?" she laughed.
"No," he grumbled.
"It's ok," she smiled. "I didn't expect you to."
In walked a woman with long wavy chestnut brown hair, green eyes, and a good build on a five foot eight inch frame. Dani held up her finger while the woman placed herself in the seat across the desk.
"So where am I picking you up?" Dean asked.
Reluctantly she gave him the address to her office, "Call me when you get here. See you tomorrow."
"Alright."
Dani turned back to face the questioning face of Breanne Grant her best friend of twenty three years, business partner, and hunter.
"Who was that?" she asked slowly.
"Remember that guy I told you about after my last hunting trip?" the blonde began hesitantly.
"Wait, what?!"
"Bree—"
"Are you telling me that you're actually going on a date with this guy?" her friend demanded.
Dani retold the events of the day while Bree had a sour look on her face the whole time.
"You must really like this guy," the brunette mused aloud.
"What? Why?"
"I'm serious," she insisted. "You haven't been in a serious relationship for three years, you don't date. You only have small trysts with random guys you meet when you decide you want to go out to the clubs, and occasionally on hunting trips."
"That doesn't mean I want to have a relationship with Dean," Dani defended although even she didn't like how that sounded to her own ears, and she wasn't sure why.
Bree just pursed her lips, "What are you doing tomorrow?"
"I'm just gonna take him to dinner since I live here and he doesn't," she sighed then decided to change the subject since she was tired of talking about this. "When are you getting out of here today?"
"Soon I just have a couple phone calls to make," the brunette said standing. "And don't think I'm dropping this subject with you Daniella. Also if he's going to become a fixture in your life I have to approve of him first."
"Yeah, yeah," she said watching her friend walk out. She was beginning to wonder why she had agreed to have dinner with the hunter herself. Although anything she did concerning Dean Winchester was hidden in a dense fog in her mind.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dani was running around her office trying to get everything ready so she could leave. Dean was supposed to pick her up within the next hour. She had stayed late because of it and she found it a useful way to make some last minute phone calls for some events over the weekend. Her cell rang and without looking she flipped it open squeezing it between her shoulder and her ear so she could carry the pile of files over to the side table.
"D," she said curtly.
"Hey D it's Dean."
"Hey," she breathed setting down the pile.
"Um...Dani we're gonna have to take a rain check on that date," he said nervously.
She cocked her head up and completely ignoring the last word, "What's wrong?"
He paused for a second, "Something came up with that job and I have to take care of it tonight."
"Ok no problem," she told him flawlessly although something was nagging in the back of her mind that it really wasn't.
"Yeah well the night isn't a complete loss because I need your help."
I should have known, she thought to herself and briefly closing her eyes. "What is it Winchester?"
"You'll do it?" he asked the surprise evident in his voice.
"I didn't say that," she reminded him. "It depends on what it is."
"Well we just need some supplies."
"We?"
"Yeah," he sighed. "My dad decided to drop in town last night."
"Huh," she scoffed before exhaling. "What do you need Winchester?"
Dani knew he was surprised by the pause that came after her question before rattling off a short list of items.
"Ok so come and pick them up when you're ready," she said.
"Why don't you come and give it to us?" Dean asked his voice carrying his usual flirtatious nature.
"I've been at work all day. I'm not exactly dressed to go hunting," she said looking down at herself. She wore dark wash jeans, a light pink short sleeve button down underneath a slate gray vest, and green t-strap high heels. "Besides I have to go home to get the shit anyway." She gave him her home address.
"I'll call when I get there," he said before hanging up.
Dani let out a heavy sigh as she closed her phone. All she could focus on was getting home and getting the stuff he needed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dean rolled the Impala to a stop in front of the tall apartment building. As he drove in he noticed that the atmosphere of the neighborhood was a little on the upper class side. He looked up at the building trying to guess at what floor she could possibly live on. He dialed Dani's number.
"Yeah?"
"I'm in front," he said simply.
"I'll be down soon."
The line went dead and Dean just turned his music up a little as he waited. A part of him had wished she would have invited him up, but his dreams were crushed. She came bounding toward the car and handed him a bag.
"It's all there," she smiled leaning in the window.
"Thanks."
They had a moment of tense silence.
"So I guess I'll see you around Dean," Dani said about to leave but Dean stopped her.
"D why don't you come with?" he asked really not wanting her to leave and also feeling bad about having to cancel dinner on her.
She hesitated, "I don't know Dean,"
"My dad won't mind," he insisted. "Hop in."
"Dean I need to fucking change my clothes—"
"I'll wait," he said leaning back in his seat.
"You never give up do you?"
He smirked, "I have no reason to."
Dani stopped to think about it. It would be weird to do a job with not only Dean but Daddy Winchester. Then on the other hand her night would be wasted if she didn't.
"Come on it'll be fun," he urged.
"Can you wait for me to change?" she asked knowing he'll just say yes.
"Course," he retorted opening his mouth for another comment but she stopped him.
"Before you fucking ask," she said. "No you can't come up."
He laughed as she entered her building. This was going to be interesting.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They came to a stop in a not completely deserted parking lot, next to a large red truck where a man with a graying beard stood. They emerged from the car and Dean saw his father's suspicious and angry look.
"Dani Burke this is my dad John Winchester," Dean introduced as he opened the trunk.
Dani observed where Dean got his height from but obviously not his people skills. She could see the hard look on the older man, but she understood. If Bree had brought someone she didn't know at all on a hunt she wouldn't be a happy camper either.
"Nice to meet you," she replied just like she would meeting anyone else.
Dean handed her some items she would need.
"Thanks," she said taking them and placing them where they needed to be.
"Dean," his father commanded moving away from where Dani stood.
Here we go, he thought. He knew this wasn't going to be good. His father wasn't exactly thrilled with the idea when he had pitched it to him.
"Dean what is this?" John demanded.
"Dani's a great hunter dad—"
"I don't care," the older Winchester snapped. "You shouldn't have brought her here."
Dean kept silent. He didn't like making his father angry.
Dani could hear everything that was being said but kept to herself.
"This is dangerous and I don't need to be looking out for someone I don't even know," John continued.
"I'm not asking you to look out for her," Dean explained.
"So who is?"
"I can look out for myself just fine," she said darkly cocking a shotgun.
John looked her up and down once more the mistrust still written on his face. He turned toward his son glancing at the blonde. "She's your responsibility not mine."
