Chapter 4
Sam had decided that the next morning he was going to go talk to Alexis and maybe he would be able to get through to her. He was surprised when the next morning came around and she was downstairs waiting for him with two cups of coffee. He took a seat beside her at the island, as she pushed the coffee mug towards him.
"I didn't know how you like your coffee." She told him, motioning to the cream and sugar sitting in front of him. He fixed his coffee and replied, "You know that I wanted to talk to you but you don't know how I like my coffee?"
"I don't know everything. Just certain things. Haven't figured out how that works yet."
"Got to be an interesting life. Having lots of powers and all."
"Not as interesting as yours. Hunting things that go bump in the night and helping people that don't know they exist. That got to be fun. Only thing I can't understand is why you hate it so much."
"What makes you think I hate it?"
"Telepathic remember?"
"I just always wanted a normal life, still do."
"Its not a burden you know. I mean think of all the people you help, you're a hero to them. Without you and your brother, they'd be dead."
"I never thought of it that way. Now what I can't understand is, why you're preaching to me about helping people, but you don't want to do it yourself. Clearly you would have a advance over us." She looked down at her mug, than back up to Sam.
"I have my reasons."
"You want to share them."
"Not really, no. Look, I know you think I'm a cold hearted person, for not helping people but I really do have my reasons and I'm not ready to open old wounds to tell you what they are."
"I just don't understand. The demon…" Sam started, but was interrupted as Alexis took his hand.
"I swear to you, he would pay for what he did to you, for what he did to Jessica. But I'm just not ready right now."
Sam nodded at that and got up from his stool and walk upstairs. He had to respect her choice. He knew that she would to face whatever was holding her back in order to fight the demon. He just didn't know how to get her to do that. He walked to Dean's room and found that he wasn't them. He turn and went to Jasmine's room at the end of the hall and saw that her door was open. He knocked on the side of the door and walked in when she motion for him to come in. She continued looking at papers that she had spread out on her desk, in the corner of the huge room. He took a seat at the other chair in front of the desk as she sat behind the desk.
"What you got there?" He asked. She looked up at him, than back down at her papers.
"Some legal crap and I have no idea what it says." She said frustrated. Sam smiled, this was something he was good at.
"I went to Stanford for law, maybe I can help." She looked and smiled a smile of relief.
"Oh that would be great."
Dean walked into Nikki room and sat on the bed. He heard her shower running and decided to wait until she came out.
He didn't know what was making him talk to her, he just knew he had to. What he had to talk to her about scare him a little. He had only known the girl for a day and already he was protecting her. He knew she could take care of herself, but he almost knew that she wasn't as strong as she seem. He had seen it in her last night, when she thought no one was looking and decided to let her guard down. But as soon as he said something to her, it was right back up. He didn't know what she was protecting herself from but he figured it had to be pretty bad.
He looked up as the bathroom door open and Nikki came out in a towel, drying her hair. She saw him and grabbed the towel tighter around her, letting the one she was using to dry her hair fall to the floor.
"What the hell are you doing in my room!" She screamed at him.
"Well its nice to see you too, Nikki." He said with a smirk.
"Get out!" she screamed again. He got up and walk over to her.
"Oh I would, I just have one question." He paused watching her.
"What makes a girl turned on her sister, her own flesh and blood?" He watched as a shocked expression came upon her face.
"You think about that." He said as he walked out her door. He went into the hall and was surprise to see Alexis leaning against the opposite wall looking at him with an unreadable expression on her face. She walked up to him and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thank you." With that she walked into her room. He stood there for a moment staring after her, with a confused look. What the hell just happened?
Sam walked up to Dean, who was still standing in the hallway looking confused.
"Hey, you okay?" Sam asked, looking at his brother worried. Dean scratch his head and turned to look at Sam.
"Uh yeah, yeah I'm good. What's up?" Dean asked.
Sam smiled, "Guess what I just found out?"
"Are you going to tell me, or just stand there with that goofy smile on your face." Dean said as he placed his hands in his pockets.
"The girls are leaving. They're going shopping."
"Which means we get to have a look around and see what Nikki is hiding." Dean said while nodding and smiling. They grew quiet as the door to Jasmine's room open and she stepped out. She shut her door and smiled when she saw them.
"Try not to mess up my house while we're gone." She told them as she went to Nikki's room and knocked. Nikki open the door and stepped out, shutting the door behind her. She saw Dean and Sam eyeing her suspiciously and moved uncomfortably to Jasmine, who was heading to Alexis's room. Jasmine looked at her weird.
"You okay? You standing kind of close." She asked Nikki, who was looking everywhere but at Dean and Sam.
"Huh, oh uh sorry." She replied nervously backing up.
Jasmine turned back to the door just as Alexis open it.
"Ready?" She asked them. They both nodded and headed down the hall, pass Dean and Sam. Alexis followed but stop in front of Dean and Sam.
"We should be back around 6 or 7pm. Try to use your time wisely." With that she walked down the hall and down the stairs. They listened for the sound of the door shutting, and realize they wouldn't hear it in a house this big. Sam turned to Dean, "Is it just me or are you also starting to worry about the fact that she knows everything we're going to do." He asked. Dean looked at his younger brother, than turned back to look where Alexis just left.
"What worries me Sammy, is why didn't she stop us?"
3 hours later the guys haven't found anything and they almost search the whole house. All they had left was Alexis's room and the only reason they hadn't search Alexis's room was the fact that they couldn't get into the room. The door was wide open but there was an invisible force shield keeping them out.
They discovered the house had 3 floors, besides the basement. The first floor had the usual stuff, dining room, living room, kitchen, den, a office, a half bathroom and a library. The second floor had all the bedrooms and bathrooms. The third floor had a indoor swimming pool with a sky light and a fitness room. The basement had a game room and theater room.
They decided that Sam was going to do some research on the girls and Dean was going to find a way to get into Alexis's room.
