Disclaimer: I own Supernatural…gets memo…never mind no I don't.
I had a hard time getting started on this chapter until fate intervened. I was sitting looking at a blank sheet of paper when my headset started playing CCR's "Bad Moon Rising" and away I went. I also took my notebook and went inside because I was scared that a semi was going to ram my back porch.
Chapter Seven
Dean had been walking the length of the docks for a good twenty minutes trying to find Robin. When he came upon pier 7, he saw her. She was sitting with her feet dangling over the edge and tears were streaming down her face. Dean felt a stab of guilt hit his heart.
"Robin" He approached.
"Just go away Dean." She wiped some tears away.
Dean took a seat next to her "If there is one thing I can not do, it's walk away from a crying woman. Especially if I am the one that made her cry."'
When Robin didn't say anything he continued, "Listen Robin, I didn't mean what I said. I don't think you're after me to get pregnant."
She turned to look at him "Then why did you say that?"
"Because…I'm scared." Dean sighed.
"Of what?"
"Of how I feel about you."
"And how do you feel about me?" Robin asked softly.
Dean looked into her eyes. "I know I care about you. And that scares the hell out of me because I have never had any real feelings for a woman before. I think…no I know I could grow to love you. I am not sure I can deal with that, everyone I love is in constant danger."
"Dean, if you haven't forgotten, we're in the same line of work. I'm in danger wither I am with you or not. I don't need you to protect me, I do just fine on my own. I'm not going to ask you to give up hunting, because I can't. I tried to leave hunting behind once and it found me again. I tired to leave and it cost me my children. I mean I loved my children, Cassie and my unborn son, but I have come to realize that if I ever do have anymore children, they will be raised like I was…hunting."
"What's wrong with that?" Dean asked, "You turned out alright. Your brother is a doctor."
Robin shook her head "Children should not see what we've seen. Children should be raised in nice little houses with big backyards. They should go to normal school, they shouldn't be home schooled in the back of their father's truck."
"Robin I hate psychology, mostly cause Sam try's to use it on me all the dame time, but are you saying you hated your childhood or are you really trying to say that your scared of having more children?"
Robin wrapped her arms around herself. "I didn't hate my childhood. I kind of liked traveling all over the country with my dad and Patrick." She whispered.
Dean took hold of her hand. "I'm not Jason Robin. I might have a reputation as a ladies man, but once I'm with a woman, a woman I care about, I'm completely faithful. I would never cheat and I sure as hell would never let a woman I was once involved with move into our home. And if we ever had children, I would lay down my life to keep them safe. Now I am more than willing to give a relationship a try. I want to. The question is do you?"
Robin gave a small smile. "You sure you don't have any demon girlfriends out there somewhere?"
Dean pretended to think for a moment "Well there was that one chick in Dallas, no she was just insane. Yeah no demon girlfriends out there."
Robin laughed and lightly punched him in the arm.
Dean had other ideas and leaned in and gently captured her lips in a soft kiss.
"What the hell is going on?!"
The two broke apart to see an amused Sam and a very disgruntled looking Sarah.
"Damn!" Dean and Robin whispered in unison.
