Dean
Well at least she was quiet Dean thought to himself. The girl had been with them for two days now Cas said her name was Leah but other then that, they new nothing about her. Dean felt that for now she was harmless he did not even want to kill her so much anymore. The best part of the two days was Cas sneaking up on her and healing her. She had been so stubborn about the whole thing and Cas was to concerned to let it drop. The girl was in pretty ruff shape but, he would have just let her suffer, it was very ungrateful of her to refuse.
She had spoken twice now, even though he was convinced she was talking with Cas in some other way. She spoke once to identify a plant that was edible. The second time she spoke though was very unexpected. Benny and Cas were arguing about some nonsense and she had yelled beck to them "hey yeah old married couple shut the hell up." It had made him smirk, he thought she probably would be a great distraction if it wasn't for the fact the she would not even look at him. He did not feel bad about attacking her they were in purgatory , that's just how life worked, but she was not forgiving him for it.
Leah
I used to love hiking walking running now I would be very happy to never do any of these activities again. Life was more interesting with the guys, not easier, and not safer. I am on constant alert. I do not want them to now how much I am scared of them. Cas was not so bad I actually liked the guy, I did not like that he touched me but then again I am no longer injured so I can't hold it against him.
Tonight we were camping near a stream. It made a calming gurgling sound that felt out of place compared to its surroundings. Maybe I could clean up a little bit? We all needed some major hygiene improvements. I made the mistake of talking with them and now I was being asked questions. Sometimes I would nod my head but I really did not feel like getting all cozy with my captors. Tonight we were eating cattails and clovers yup we are desperate. I kept thinking about the stream and how good it would feel to take a bath.
Cas can I ask for a favor?
Yes
Will you keep watch if I try to clean up in the stream?
Uh yes I can do that
Thanks
I smile at him making sure to make eye contact then stand up and start walking towards the water.
"were are you going" dean snapped.
"she needs to take care of something, Dean I will be right with her, we are just going to be farther down stream." Cas said very calmly.
"Don't go to far and be quick" Dean hated when the group split up.
I stripped down to my bra and underwear not wanting to be completely naked. Heaven forbid something catches me literally with my pants down. The middle of the stream is waste deep and I submerge myself into the icy water. I rub my arms trying to scrub as much of the blood and dirt off as possible. I take a moment to evaluate myself. Cas had healed all my serous wounds, my tan arms were littered though with small cuts and bruises. Also being in as Cas called it 'purgatory' was thinning me out. I was never big, I was just more muscularly built, but now I was a little smaller still no twig but my size 8 pants were loose on me now. My hair was the real issue was my hair it was snarled and knotted in all of its dirty blonde glory. My hair it had to be fixed, it had been in a ponytail but after the hair-pulling incident a few days ago it was now a clump. Oh well I submerged, as a came back up though I heard talking.
"Cas whats taking so…" Dean seemed to just stand there stunned
and I well I was back under water.
Go away go away go away
"Dean I think you need to leave she is very .." but dean interrupted
"Cas we aren't running a freakin day spa get your ass back to camp" and with that he marched back up stream.
I ran right back to my clothes putting on my once classy brown slacks and throw back on my blouse it had once been a light blue now it was a grimy gray.
" I am sorry I did not think he would come out to check"
"Its ok Cas thanks for letting wash up I needed it" then I thought about something "hey Cas can you maybe fix my hair?" hell it was worth a shot.
"uhh Leah I no very little about human female hair and its care"
"No problem " and I pulled out my one and only weapon a small knife that I had pulled of a body I had found it in the dude's boot. I then cut my hair at were the pony tail had been. Problem solved hair was now out of the way.
"you didn't have to do that" he said he looked concerned.
"No it's fine it needed to be fixed. Don't worry Cas it will grow back" it was funny I actually liked talking to Cas, I felt comfortable with him. I smiled again at him "thank you again I really needed this "then I decided to ask Cas "do you really think we might be able to get out?"
"I don't know Leah I hope so" he looked doubtful.
"Well we better get back before Dean's panties get in a twist" I was feeling much better.
"Leah, Dean does not were panties" I just laughed I was still laughing when we walked back into camp.
