Ch.7

As me and Johnny ride along in Benny's truck listening to Cajun jazz me and papa text.

Kas: Luc and sam in the back sucking each others face off?

Pa: I hardly believe that's what they're doing in…..

Kas: Intense snuggling?

Pa: I've never seen your uncle's face so calm

Kas: Which one?

Pa: Both

Laughing out loud gaining the attention to her dozing brother she rapidly replies back.

Kas: Yea well tell him me and johnny had a bet going along with who would confess to who I won. ;P

Pa: Kassette you shouldn't have bets on your uncle's personal life.

Kas: Please all's fair in love and war especially money

Pa; Your dad says that he is running low on gas and is hungry were stopping on the next exit.

Johnny seemingly reading the conversation behind her shoulder tells Benny the situation.

"Your daddy is getting old what happen to only needing only 4 hours sleep?"

"I don't think having two kids helps much."

We end up driving another hour and half before we try to find a motel as benny sets out to find a wolf or two the rest of us climb into the two rooms and sleep covers up like a vice.

Hearing painful moans makes me wake up.

Thinking it's one of my parents i shot over to their bed but there sound asleep curled up into each others arms, that just means. Turning around johnny is twitching in our shared bed face twisted in what seems like his shoulders i try shaking him out of the nightmare.

"Johnny come on wake up you s.o.b."

"Kassie no…"

Shit something was happening to her in his dream.

"Johnathan I'm right here come on wake up."
"GET AWAY FROM HER"

She quickly pulls her hands away his skin was burning hotter than any normal human should.

"Johnathan Robert Winchester WAKE THE HELL UP!"

Teal eyes open in horror

Helping her brother up she feels his skin getting cooler along with the sweat dripping on his clothed back.

Breathing heavily johnny flings off the shirt making it land with a splat.

Getting up she rummages around the shitty room until she finds a semi cool bottle of water. Throwing it over johnathan catches it with ease and in a couple seconds downs the bottle.

As Kassette opens her mouth to speak her parents finally decide to wake up.

"Why are you two doing up?"

"Johnny…"

"Wasn't able to sleep i accidentally woke Kassie up sorry we'll be more quiet."

As her dad and pa exchange looks she stares johnny down.

"Johnathan why don't you and your pa go take a walk try to cool down okay?"

Johnny releticcally throws his jackets and shoes on while pa does the same not without giving dad a angry look.

As the door shuts behind them dad pats down the empty space beside him. Landing besides him i lean my head on his shoulder.

"He was having another damn dream. He told me we were going to talk about it but he shut me off."

"He told me the same thing."

Looking up her dad has a far away look in his eyes.

"He told me he would come to me when he had another one."

"Maybe he just doesn't want you to worry."

"Im his older sister it's my job to worry about him."

Giving a soft grin his fingers start cascading down my hair.

"I know from experience that little brothers like to keep things in the dark especially if it's a dream about you."

As we hear Pa and johnny come closer he tells me that johnathan will talk to me when he's ready and until then just to trust him.

Later when are parents fall back to sleep i feel my brothers eyes on me turning over i pull him into my embrace setting his head under my chin.

"Were not six years old anymore kassie."

"I know just try to go back to sleep little brother."

"I'm taller than you though."

That earned him a whack on the head

As we both drift into sleep Jonathan's arms curl tighter around her.

If i had known that i wouldn't be able to hug my little brother for weeks after that night I would have held on tighter.
