A/N: This is my version of "The End" So there will be changes. Enjoy!
Future Cara sat in front of Dean on the floor and took a deep breath, "So I am sure you have a lot of questions right now."
"Yeah but mainly, why and I such a dick?" he smiled.
"You have your own personal reasons I guess. We don't talk much any more." She said.
"Why not? I thought that we would have…"
"Ended up together? I thought that at one time also. After everything you still refused to commit or tell me how you felt so I had to move on with my life. After I got married you or the other Dean I should say shut me out. I think you were more hurt than anything."
"You got married?" Dean asked. No wonder his future self was screwed up. "I mean who did you marry?"
"Eric. I married him about four years ago but it didn't last long. He died."
"I'm sorry to hear that. What happened?"
"The virus got to him. I tried to call you one night. I knew something wasn't right but you were a drunken mess and told me that I was no longer your problem."
"Why would I ever say that to you?" Dean asked. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He had really lost her because he was too afraid to admit that he loved her more than life itself.
"Like I said, you were mad at me. I think you still are."
"I can see why I would be upset. I….I mean he loves you. I know he does." He said out loud but didn't really get a response from Cara.
"I use to think that and hearing those words come from your mouth means a lot to me. If only you were my Dean. I still hope that one day he will be honest with me."
"I can be your Dean if you want me to be." He winked at her.
Cara just laughed, "Now that is the Dean I know and love."
"So you still love me?"
"Dean, I have always loved you or him. God only knows why but I do. I just can't spend my life waiting on you or him. Man this is confusing."
Dean knew she was right. This was going to be one thing he was going to change when he got back. "So what happened when Eric died?"
"Well Dean got there right after Eric was fully turned. I still don't know why he even came. He never told me. I remember lying on the ground outside my house. I had jumped out the window trying to get away from Eric. Just when I thought it was all over for me, I heard gun shots and looked up to see you standing there before I passed out."
"Are you sure I didn't kill Eric because he was married to you?" Dean smiled.
"I'm sure." Cara grinned. "You fixed me up the best you could. Notice the scare I have." She pointed to her neck. "You always blamed yourself for some reason but like I said, me and him don't talk much and when we do its him yelling at me for something."
"I'm sorry, Cara. I don't want any of this for you."
"Then change it. When you get out of here you tell me how you feel and we go after Lucifer together. Do you understand me?"
"Yes ma'am."
"Alright then. I think it's safe to let you out of here now." Cara said and walked over to him.
"Won't I get mad?" Dean smiled up at her.
"You're always mad. It's nothing I can't handle." She winked at him. "Alight, we need to get you back."
"How do we do that?"
"Let's go talk to Cass."
"Whoa, Castiel is here?"
"Yeah but I don't think he is going to be anything like your Castiel. Come on and I will take you to him.
When Dean and Cara walked into the old cabin, Castiel was sitting in a circle with several women and Cara rolled her eyes. "So, in this way, we're each a fragment of total perception….just one compartment in that dragonfly eye of group mind. Now, the key to this total, shared perception, it's, um, it's surprisingly physical." Cass Said.
Cara cleared her throat and Cass looked over and saw her standing with Dean. "Oh. Excuse me, ladies. I think I need to confer with our fearless leader for a minute. Why not go get washed up for the orgy?" He said and one by one the women walked out.
"What are you, a hippie?" Dean asked in shock.
"I thought you'd gotten over trying to label me."
"An orgy? Really Cass?" Cara asked with her arms crossed over her chest. "I was gone for one day!"
Castiel walked over to her and put his arms around her waist, "You know you are still my number one. I thought you would be pleased."
Cara looked over at Dean whose mouth was open and she leaned into Castiel's ear, "I said one or two Cass and that's all."
"Then I will let you pick my love."
"Whoa whoa whao!" Dean said and walked over to him, "You two are…..are together?"
"Well, I wouldn't say we are together… together. We are just having sex." Cara said. "I have needs too, Dean."
"You have got to be kidding me. No wonder I'm a dick."
"Dean, the other you has no clue what's going on around her half the time. Plus he has about ten girlfriends. I don't think he misses me."
"This is crazy!" Dean said and ran his fingers through his hair. "When did you two meet?"
"At Bobby's not long after he called me to help you guys."
"Great. There is another thing I am changing. I am keeping you guys apart."
"What year are you from?" Castiel asked.
"2009."
"Who did this to you? Is it Zachariah?"
"Yes."
"Interesting."
"As in THE Zachariah, baby?' Cara asked as Cass put his hand in her back pocket.
"Ok you know what, I can't deal with this right now." Dean said and pulled Cara away from Dean, "Stop touching her!" He pointed at Cass. "Now where were we? Oh yeah, why don't you strap on your angel wings and fly me back to my page on the calendar?"
"I wish I could just, uh, strap on my wings, but I'm sorry, no dice." Castiel laughed.
"What, are you stoned?"
"Uh, generally, yeah."
"What happened to you?"
"Life and well Cara." Castiel blew her a kiss and she smiled. "Man, she is a firecracker."
"Stop! I am standing right here!" Dean said. "And you don't even know what that means."
"Relax Dean. You don't own me." Cara said. "You let me go a long time ago."
"Well I am going to be making some changes soon. Come on." He said and pulled Cara out the door.
When they got outside they saw future Dean pull up in a jeep along with a few other hunters and climb out. They watched as future Dean grabbed two beers and toss one to a man. "Something isn't right." Cara said as she watched them. "What do you mean?" Dean asked. "Something went wrong on the hunt. I can see it in his eyes." When they looked back at future Dean, they saw him draw his gun and point it at that man.
"Hey. Hey! Watch out!" Dean yelled and Cara pulled him back.
Future Dean shoots the man and the others look between the two Deans, "Damn it. I'm not gonna lie to you. Me and him…..It's a pretty messed-up situation we got going. But believe me, when you need to know something, you will know it. Until then, we all have work to do."
Future Dean walked over and grabbed Cara by the arm as he shoves Dean into the cabin and shuts the door behind them. "Let me go!" Cara said and jerked her arms away from future Dean.
"I told you to watch him! Not take him and have play time!" future Dean yelled at her.
"I am not going to keep him cuffed up just because you said so! Maybe there are some things he needed to see!"
"That was not you're call! I gave you an order!"
"Screw your orders Dean!" Cara yelled.
"Stop it!" Dean yelled, "What happened to you two?"
Future Dean and Cara looked at him, "I'll tell you what happened, she gave up and ran away."
"I did not!"
"Whatever. I have bigger issues at the moment. I will deal with you later."
"I can't wait but while we are here, what the hell where you thinking out there?"
"You just shot a guy in cold blood." Present Dean said.
"We were in an open quarantine zone. Got ambushed by some Croats on the way out."
"How do you know?" Dean asked.
"Cause after a few years of this, I know. I started seeing symptoms about a half an hour ago. Wasn't gonna be long before he flipped. I didn't see the point in troubling a good man with bad news."
"You just blew him away in front of your own people. Don't you think that freaked them out a little bit?"
"It's 2014. Plugging some Croat, its called commonplace. Trading words with my friggin' clone…..that might have freaked them out a little! This isn't your time. It's mine. You don't make the decisions. I do. So, when I say stay in, you stay in!"
"Would you two please stop yelling?" Cara said and looked at her Dean, "Did you at least get it?"
Future Dean pulled out the colt, "Yeah I got it."
"That's what you went after?" Dean asked him.
"Yeah and tonight, we are gonna ice the devil."
"I guess I better go get everyone together. I will see you guys later." Cara said and walked out the door.
Future Dean grabbed some whiskey and poured Dean a glass, "So, you want to tell me what is going on with you guys?"
"What are you talking about?"
"I mean you hate each other."
"I don't hate her."
"You treat her like a fucking door mat. Come on man, that's not us. You love her."
"Hey, she walked away! I didn't make her leave!"
"Yes you did!"
"Look, this is between me and her so you stay out of it! Come on, we got work to do."
"Why are you taking me anyways?"
"Relax. You'll be fine. Zach's looking after you, right?"
"No, that's not what I mean. I want to know what's going on."
"Yeah, okay. You're coming because I want you to see something. I want you to see our brother."
"Sam? I thought he was dead."
"Sam didn't die in Detroit. He said 'yes'."
"Yes? Wait. You mean…."
"That's right. The big 'yes' to the devil. Lucifer's wearing him to the prom."
"Why would he do that?"
"Wish I knew. But now we don't have a choice. It's in him, and it's not getting out. And we've got to kill him, Dean. And you need to see it, the whole damn thing, how bad it gets so you can do it different."
"What do you mean?"
"Zach said he was gonna bring you back, right? To '09?"
"Yeah."
"Well, when you get back home you say yes. You hear me? Say yes to Michael. You tell Cara that you love her and you go say yes to him."
"That's crazy. If I let him in, then Michael fights the devil. The battle's gonna torch half the planet!"
"Look around you, man! Half the planet's better than no planet, which is what we have now. If I could do it over again, I'd say yes in a heartbeat!"
"So why don't you?"
"I've tried! I've shouted 'yes' till I was blue in the face! The angels aren't listening! They just, left…..gave up! It's too late for me, but for you…"
"Oh, no. There's got to be another way."
"Yeah, that's what I thought. I was cocky. Never actually thought I'd lose. I never thought I would lose Cara again but I was wrong. Dean. I was wrong. I'm begging you." Future Dean had a few tears in his eyes when he looked at Dean, "But you won't. 'Cause I didn't. Because that's just not us, is it?"
"Are you guys ready?" Cara asked when she walked in the door and by the look on the two Dean's faces she knew she had walked in on something, "Should I come back?"
"No." Present Dean said and walked over to her, "You need to be here." He said and pulled her over to the other Dean, "Tell her! This may be your last night on earth so you tell her!"
"Tell me what?" Cara asked and future Dean just stood there.
When future Dean just stood there, Dean just shook his head and turned to Cara, "He loves you. He loves you more than anything in the world. He is just too stupid and hardheaded to admit it because he is scared. Being in love scared him. He never thought he would lose you but he did and that is harder for him to deal with right now that anything. He loved you then and he loves you now."
Cara had tears in her eye and she looked over to her Dean, "Is this true?" she asked.
"Yes" he whispered. That was all Cara ever wanted to hear. She pushed passed present Dean and ran and jumped on her Dean and kissed him fiercely.
"I love you so much." Cara said and started kissing him all over.
Future Dean looked over at Dean, "Give us twenty minutes." He winked.
Dean smiled and walked out the door.
Present Day Bobby's
Cara was sitting in the den chewing on her nails as she read. Dean had been sleeping for almost ten hours now and she was beginning to get worried about him. "Is he still not up yet?" Sam asked when he walked into the room.
"No. I have never seen Dean sleep this much."
"Should we wake him up?"
"No. I am sure he has a lot on his mind right now. He needs to rest." She said.
It was only ten minutes later that Dean slowly walked down the stairs. He saw Cara and Sam sitting in the living room and knew he had something to say to them both.
"Hey, looks who finally up." Cara smiled at Dean, "Can I get you something to eat?"
"Uh, no. I need to talk to Sam for a second if you don't mind."
"Ok that's no problem. I know you are hungry so I will go make a few sandwiches." She smiled and walked passed Dean.
"What's going on Dean? You look like you just saw a ghost." Sam said.
"It was worse that that. Listen man, I know I have been hard on you the past few weeks and I'm sorry. The point is maybe we are each other's Achilles heel. Maybe they'll find a way to use us against each other, I don't know. I just know we're all we've got. More than that, we keep each other human. I mean, you are the second-best hunter on the planet."
"Thank you, Dean. So, what do we do now?
"We make our own future and I know just where to start." Dean said and walked toward the kitchen. Just when he was about to walk over to Cara, he heard her on the phone.
"I miss you more."….. "I know but maybe I will be home to you soon."….. "Ok baby. Call me when you get out of your meeting.'… "I love you too. Bye." She said to Eric and hung up the phone.
Dean walked back out of the room and leaned against the wall. He couldn't just walk in there and blurt out he loved her right now. She was happy. He needed to know that he had a shot with her before he went and made a fool out of himself. He had to test her somehow.
Poor Dean : ( What does he have planned? Please review guys! Don't make me beg. Ok I will, please please review! LOL thank you guys so much for reading!
