This is the second chapter showing a completely different side to Dean and Kate's relationship. It was a lot of fun to write!

Disclaimer: The usual. See chapter 3 for specifics.

Dean-24

Sam-20 (away at Stanford)

Kate-15

Kate had her forehead pressed up against the apartment window. Her breathing caused the window to momentarily fog up, but she could not bear to take her gaze off of the snow that had started falling heavily a few hours ago. "Is it on yet?" she asked Dean without taking her eyes off of the snow for fear it might just all disappear.

"No," Dean replied in a short tone.

"What about now?" she asked literally 10 seconds later.

"Geesh, Kate. I said I'd tell you when it's on!" Dean was getting annoyed.

"Yeah, well sorry but it's a little hard to trust you with such an crucial task." Dean decided it wasn't even worth responding because it would nag her on even more.

Finally he saw the blue bar come across the bottom of the screen that signaled the channel was about to list the closings and delays for tomorrow.

"Get over here," Dean said. Kate quickly moved to about a foot away from the TV screen for prime viewing and impatiently waited for the 'J' section to come up. Frankfort High….2 hour delay, Graham Schools…closed, Jefferson Schools…closed.

"YES!" Kate screamed as she jumped up on couch fist pumping in victory. She jumped off and did a few spins on her feet. Dean couldn't help but smile. He remembered those days when he pleaded with the snow gods to give him just one day off from the torture chamber known as school.

"You know, you could pass as Tom Cruise with that couch jump you just did." The moment the sentence left his mouth, Dean froze realizing what he had actually just said. He nervously peered over at Kate, searching for any sign that she recognized the reference he made.

"I have no idea what you're talking about and I don't care!" she said as she gave one last twirl for good measure. "Cuz tomorrow is a snow day and I'm freaking sleepin' till noon!"

Dean breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed back in his seat. "Well snow day or not, it's time for your ass to get to bed."

"Fine, but don't you dare wake me up tomorrow. I'm gonna catch up on some beauty rest," Kate threatened.

"Better just go into hibernation then because you got a lot of catching up to do," Dean joked, smirking at his own cleverness.

"Freaking hilarious. You're a regular comedian now," Kate replied dryly as she punched him in the arm. "Night night," she finished as she began to skip off towards her room. John had decided to rent out a small apartment for them this time because there had been many cases in the area, so he knew they'd be there for a while. Amazingly it had 2 bedrooms and with Sam away at college and John on the hunt, Kate could finally have her own room for a bit.

"Night," Dean called back as he began to flip through the channels. The only time he ever got to watch what he wanted was when she wasn't there to bitch at him. Kate shut her door and threw herself on the bed, too lazy to even get under the covers. She was looking forward to a day of nothing.

Kate tossed back and forth in her bed, pissed because her body seemed to refuse to sleep any longer. She could feel the sun glaring at her through the only window in her room. It was mocking her, she just knew it. She blindly reached her arm out and grabbed her phone. She squinted open one eye. It took her a few times to keep that eye open when she lit up the screen. She felt like she was staring directly into a light flare. "Ugh. Really? 10:18. That's the best you can do?!" she mentally scolded her body. Her body had once again failed to allow her to achieve her ultimate life goal of sleeping the entire day away.

Annoyed with the world, she rolled onto her back and sat up. She scooted over to the side of the bed, stood up, and shuffled over to the door. Still not wanting to fully embrace the fact she was awake, she opened both eyes just enough to be able to see where she was going. She noticed the door was already half open. She wasn't surprised. Even though Dean would never admit it and she decided not to bug him about it, she knew that when they slept in separate rooms, he would always check on her before he went to bed and left the door half open, being the overprotective, paranoid brother he was.

Without being able to muster up enough energy to physically move the door open further, she turned sideways and slid through the current opening. As she stepped into the hall, she immediately heard the TV and the sound of people cheering and applauding. "What the hell?" she thought as she rubbed her eyes so she could attempt to focus on what was happening. She looked up ahead in the living room and saw the back of Dean's head on the couch. Kate squinted harder to see what was going happening on the TV.

She froze. "Oh. My. Gosh. Totally worth waking up for!" she mentally cheered as she suddenly felt a jolt of energy and life rush through her body, erasing all the tiredness she had felt 5 seconds ago. Her eyes quickly bolted around the room trying to come up with a plan as fast as possible.

She spotted Dean's phone on the kitchen counter a few feet ahead of her. She ever so gently tip toed over to the counter, careful not to make a sound. "So much for those hunter instincts, Dean," Kate joked to herself. She grabbed his phone and quickly opened it up to record a video. She clicked record and first aimed it at the TV screen as she began slowly walking up to the side of the couch.

"Oh Oprah, I'm just so excited to be here with you today!" some weird looking blond chick said on the screen.

"So...whatcha wathin'?" Kate said as she turned the phone towards him. Dean's head whipped over at her all in a panic. He quickly fumbled with the remote trying to turn off the TV, finally managing to do so.

"I..I was just flipping through the channels," he lied.

"Oh Dean, you know the camera doesn't lie! Just admit you watch Oprah!" she teased.

"You're dead," he said as he lunged at her trying to grab the phone. She quickly ended the video and took off running. He kept chasing her around the small apartment, until they both ended up in the kitchen, each on one side of the table.

"Give it to me. Now," Dean demanded.

"No way. This is gold. Actually better than gold! Imma send it to every girl in your phone, which you make so freaking easy by putting them all in the same folder…'Babes'." Kate smiled as she started clicking through the phone preparing to send.

"Come on Kate. You don't really wanna start this up again," Dean begged.

"Oh, but I do."

"Do I have to remind you that last time Sam ended up bald and you ended up with blue stained teeth for a week! You don't wanna mess with the King."

"Oh yeah? Bring it." Click. Kate held up the phone to show Dean the "sending…" message that appeared across the screen. A victorious smile plastered across her face.

"Ok, but remember you started this crap. Don't come crying to me begging for mercy," Dean stated.

"Oh wow. You're a dude…who watches Oprah. I'm shaking in my boots," Kate said as she made her best scared face.

"You just wait and see." Dean reached out and finally snatched his phone back, but much to his dismay, the messages had already been sent.

Kate gave him one last triumphant smile as she made her way back to her room loudly giving off her best 'evil' laugh the whole way. She picked up her own phone and saw she had one new message; obviously she had sent herself the video too. "Definitely gotta send this one to Sammy. He's missing out," she thought as she scrolled through her contact list searching for his name and finally sending it off. She snapped her phone closed and laid back down on her bed, deciding she might need to rest up for the coming Winchester War.

A/N: The Tom Cruise reference is from an interview with Oprah he did quite some time ago when he declared that he was 'in love'.
