WHAT STARTS WITH L AND ENDS WITH E

Dean felt completely helpless seeing Nathan taking Arandi and he was furious. How the hell did he expect to get away with this?

Dean groaned in pain as he was punched in the gut three times.

He looked up to see that Arandi and Nathan had stopped moving.

"Did you really think a little bitch like you was going to ruin my life?" Nathan hissed.

"I ruined your life; I'm not the sicko trying to rape girls." Arandi stammered.

"You all want it all of you bitches want to be used."

"Only in your fucked up mind." Arandi gasped.

"You'll learn to keep your mouth shut."

"You forgot one thing." Arandi said locking eyes with Dean.

"What?" Nathan grunted.

"I'm not drugged this time." Arandi said as she flipped him completely onto his back hard on the pavement and then proceeded to kick him in his face as he struggled to get back on his feet.

Dean laughed and pulled his arms hard together making the guys holding his arms trip and fall against each other but there were more guys with Nathan and Dean fought them as best he could then Sam was there and Jade.

Chris and Stony, Kal and Korin, and Lucas and Robin appeared and the small riot turned.

Sirens sounded and Nathan tried to run with his friend but Dean clothes lined him and Sam and their friends kept a couple of the others grounded.

The police took over and being that most of them were minors they had to wait for parents.

Nathan was arrested on the spot for being anywhere near Arandi let along threatening to hurt her but the police were snickering that this big strapping guy had gotten his ass handed to him by a girl.

John and Mary arrived worried and when they saw Nathan being taken away they understood.

"How is he even free?" John asked one of the officers.

"Seems that his bail was posted but now with this I would hope that he wouldn't be allowed bail again." The officer answered.

"He should have never been out in the first place for what he did." Mary growled putting her arms protectively around Arandi.

Dean cleared his throat. "Hey mom wrong kid." He joked.

Mary glared at him but then seeing him and Sam bruised up her mother hen kicked in and she fluttered from one to the other making sure they were ok.

Dean's head was pounding from being hit with who knew what but he didn't dare tell his mom or he'd spend the rest of his night in ER.

They were allowed to leave Dean moved slowly. "Hey Arandi would you mind driving?"

"I can drive, are you ok?" She asked taking his hand.

"My head is a little off from being hit." He admitted.

"Why didn't you tell your mom?" Arandi asked worriedly checking his head.

Dean flinched back from her touch when she found the sore spot. "If you want to feel me up go further south." He growled.

"You have a huge goose egg."

"I'm fine and what you did was so totally awesome and hot." He smiled kissing her.

"And you just so totally changed the subject." She breathed.

"So I'd rather spend my night with you and not a MRI."

"MRI?"

"Have you met my mother?" Dean asked in mock shock.

"I get it ok but I'd rather know you're ok." Arandi stressed.

Dean sighed having women worry about you could be so stressing. "If I feel any worse I will tell my mommy I promise."

Arandi caved as Dean kissed her neck.

Man he loved pushing her buttons.

They had to wait until Dean's parents were asleep before they could get cozy.

Dean was sure that his parents wouldn't flip if they got caught kissing but other things might be a problem and with Arandi being in her night shorts and no bra under her tank top he was only human.

They were hidden under the covers kissing he moved to get over her heat rushing everywhere because he was closer to skin than when in jeans.

Her perky perfect tits just right there and he was going to go to hell. "Arandi can I please just touch over your shirt." He begged and when the hell did he start doing that?

Arandi was scared out of her wits but they had already gone farther than that and she had touched a more intimate part of him over his clothes so she nodded.

Dean felt her shaking and seeing Nathan tonight had probably awakened the fears all over again so he wasn't going to be a dick about it.

He slipped his hand slowly over her side looking in her eyes as he reached his destination and cupped firm heated flesh under her thin tank top that made him dizzy.

Whoa wait a minute he really was dizzy and nauseous. He sat up the room spinning around him and he barely made the bathroom before he was spewing.

Arandi was with him worriedly calling his name and rubbing his back. "If you don't like my boobs there are less harsh ways for you to show me." She joked.

"Like you did when I first kissed you." He reminded her hoarsely.

"That was my head and you…..it's your head isn't it?"

Dean nodded slowly but it was enough to set him off again.

"I'm getting you mom." Arandi warned him but he felt too much like crap to care.

Arandi knocked on Mary's door and John answered.

"Something is wrong with Dean." She said worriedly.

John called to Mary as he rushed to Dean's side.

"What's up kiddo?" John kneeled by his son.

"Everything but the kitchen sink." Dean groaned and threw up again. "Never mind there it went." He grunted.

"Dean is something you ate or drank?" Mary asked feeling his pulse.

"No alcohol if that's what you're asking."

"I would have smelled that on you a mile away so what is it then?"

Dean knew the mother of all lectures was coming so he hesitated.

"Nathan's friends tried to knock him out." Arandi blurted.

Dean sighed they were having a conversation about covering for your boyfriend if didn't throw up his intestines first.

"Dean Winchester." Mary started. "I told you when you started playing football to never down play a head injury they can be very serious and you not know until hours later when it's too late to do anything about it."

That was all he heard the rest lost in a loud mumble in his head and he looked at her saw her mouth moving and Arandi standing behind her looking like she was going to cry any second.

John had already gone to get dressed and get the car knowing his wife was going to force Dena to the hospital one way or another.

"Mom." Dean interrupted.

Mary stopped talking and looked at him.

"I think I hit my head." He slurred.

Mary thought that he was joking with her until she saw her son's eyes roll and his head loll to the side.

Arandi started to cry but she quickly grabbed Dean's head to keep it upright.

"John!" Mary yelled and she heard him bounding up the stairs and Sam and Jade coming.

"He passed out." Mary told John worriedly.

John was no small man but having to carry his nothing but muscle less that petite over six feet tall two hundred pound unconscious son was going to be a feat but with Sam's help they got him to the car.

Dean was groggy as all hell but fine, the doctor had given him an all clear although Mary wanted a full explanation on why her son had passed out if all was good.

The doctor explained that something else must have gotten Dean's blood pumping causing his injured head to get fuzzy.

Dean and Arandi knew what had gotten his blood pumping and they both blushed.

Dean didn't have a foot to stand on with the dark hickey still marking his collar bone and why did they had to take his shirt off when it was his head that was hurt.

He knew he was catching hell later and then to make things worse Arandi's parents were back so she had to go home.

He was glad that he slept most of Saturday away or he would have gone nuts thinking about her.

Sunday though he wasn't so lucky and he missed her, he picked at his breakfast as the lecture started.

"Dean I know Arandi is your girlfriend and you're used to doing things with your girlfriends but Dean in our house while we were there." Mary started.

"We were only kissing mom." Dean answered.

"So that mark on your collar bone came from working on the muffler I suppose." John added.

"That could have happened but it didn't happen in your garage."

"This isn't funny son."

Dean's head was still less than a hundred percent started aching. "The last time I checked a hickey isn't sex."

"Dean I think it's best that you give each other sometime….."

"No!" Dean snapped. "I've had other girlfriends that I actually fu…..had sex with and you didn't keep me from them but the one girlfriend that I haven't slept with you want to keep me from."

"You never spent days and nights with any of the others." John snapped back.

"Because I didn't care about them like I do for Arandi." Saying it out loud made if feel so perfect but they couldn't keep her from him. "I thought you liked her."

"We do Dean we just want you to be careful."

"As cool of parents as you have always been you are ass backwards."

"Dean!" His dad warned.

"No really I mean hardly went a week without getting laid and now that I'm not you're mad?" He never got like this with his parents.

"We don't want you to mess up something good Dean that's all we're saying." Mary added.

"We're not having sex, she's not ready and I'm not pushing I would never make her do something she's not ready for she's….she's …everything."

John and Mary exchanged glances.

Dean felt clammy and his heart raced. "Please don't take her from me." He suddenly needed air and he got up from the table. The room began to spin, 'Not this shit again' he thought.

He heard his mom calling him but he couldn't answer and then he saw blood on her hands but why? His dad was holding him up and he closed his eyes for just a minute.

Dean opened his eyes and instantly looked for Arandi but found only his mom and dad.

Mary stroked his hair like she had when he was little and he loved his mom dearly but he wanted someone else stroking his hair.

"What happened?" He croaked his throat felt dry.

"You passed out again." John said. "You had a hell of nose bleed on top of that."

Mary had called the doctor to insist that more tests be run but the first thing the doctor had asked was if Dean had been upset at all because although he hadn't suffered a concussion his head was still muddled.

Mary had felt guilt ridden because they had upset Dean and she should have known better.

"I'm ok you don't have to sit on me." Dean sighed heavily. It was a standing joke with him and his mom from when he was a kid he was afraid of the babysitter because he didn't want her to sit on him.

John and Mary got the hint and left him alone; he picked up his phone and texted Arandi.

'Being held against my will save me.'

'Baking the cake with the file as we text'

'I miss you.'

'Me too just rest and I will see you later.'

Arandi knew that Mary was upset when she had seen the hickey and she knew that Dean's parents probably now put her right up there with the other girls Dean had dated but she couldn't get by another day without seeing Dean.

She rang the doorbell and put on her nicest smile as Mary opened the door.

"He's resting." Mary snapped at her.

Arandi fought back the urge to cry and she handed Mary a bag. "Can you please make sure he gets these they are his favorite snacks." She felt stupid as if his own mom wouldn't know what her son's favorite snacks were.

Mary instantly felt horrible, Arandi was the only girl ever that Dean had bothered to spend quality time with and she had never seen her son cry for a girl and she liked her damn it.

So this was what it was like to meet the girl you knew was going to take your first born from you.

Mary sighed. "I'm sorry sweetie, it's been a long couple of days and I didn't mean to take it out on you." She beckoned Arandi to come inside and hugged her. "He's in his room sle…."

She didn't get to finish because Dean was bounding down the stairs having heard the doorbell and knew it was Arandi.

Dean lifted Arandi off her feet and kissed her mom or no mom. What the hell was this it had only been one day and he felt like he hadn't seen her in weeks.

Ok running and lifting not a good idea but he covered it well before they sent Arandi away.

"We'll be in my room being good little children." Dean chimed as he led Arandi up the stairs.

In his room Dean pulled her into a kiss but didn't close the door.

"How are you feeling?" She asked caressing his face.

"I passed out again this morning but I feel alright now, just really tired even though I've slept for hours." He pulled her to sit beside him on the bed.

"I hated not being here with you to take care of you like you did for me."

"It's fine my parents think we're moving too fast anyway I thought they were going to try to keep us from seeing each other." Dean sighed lacing his fingers in hers.

"What but they never did that before." Arandi gasped.

"That's because before I didn't spend every chance I could with my girlfriend, it was basically get what I needed and home."

"So what then they were happier when you were risking getting some bimbo pregnant than being safe with me." Arandi snapped.

Dean eyed her. "I was careful trust me, I've seen too many people become young parents and regret it. I think it's more along the lines of them thinking we're getting serious too fast and that I'm rushing you to do things that you're not ready for. Am I rushing you?"

"We've only officially been dating a couple of weeks but we have spent a lot of time together since school started." She answered.

"That's a yes or no answer." Dean stressed.

"No Dean you haven't been rushing me, I'll be eighteen soon and having this with you is what I want." Arandi said softly staring down at the floor.

Dean watched her closely as his mind caught on to the truth. "You were waiting for me all along." He said as he lifted her chin to look in her eyes.

Arandi felt so pathetic and she wanted to crawl under a rock.

"What if…what if…." Dean tried.

"What if you had never noticed me? I hadn't thought that far ahead." She admitted.

"I've never been important to anyone that wasn't family." Dean murmured.

"You've been important to a lot of people."

"No the fact that I was the quarterback was important. Remember last year when I got hurt Kat picked a huge fight with me planning to break up with me so she could get Scott who would have replaced me."

"Why did you stay with her then?"

"She scratched an itch." Dean scoffed. "And really she was a way to keep all the other piranhas away."

Arandi looked at his face trying to read something. "How are you sure that I'm enough?"

"I've never talked back to my parents about hardly anything but especially a girl, so there is something there more than ever before I promise."

Arandi nodded and they kissed.

Mary brought him all the food Arandi had brought him on a tray and they ate and watched a movie.

Dean happily full stretched out on his bed with his head on Arandi's lap and she began to run her fingers gently through his hair.

He sighed content now those were the fingers he had been seeking and started feeling sleepy right away.

"Tomorrow is a school holiday so you can rest one more day." Arandi said seeing his eyes drooping.

"Stay with me." He mumbled.

'I wish I could."

"You're awesome." He yawned and drifted into sleep.

Arandi waited a few minutes gently shifting out from under him and put his pillows under his head. She covered him up and kissed him softly on the lips getting a soft moan from him.

"And they said sleeping beauty was a girl." Mary snickered from the door.

Arandi blushed having been busted. "If it's ok I'll be back tomorrow."

"Sure honey that's fine."

Dean snapped awake finding it pitch black and looking at the time he saw that it after three in the morning.

He huffed disappointed that he had fallen asleep while Arandi had been with him. He picked up his phone and stared at it.

He dialed what the hell they were off tomorrow.

Arandi answered tiredly but concern in her voice. "Dean what's wrong?"

"I needed to hear you voice." He sighed.

"I'll make you a recording." She sighed back.

"I'm sorry I woke you up."

"It's ok as long as you're fine."

"You can't get much finer than this." Dean chuckled.

'"It's a good thing you're not one of those conceited guys." Arandi giggled.

"Are your parents leaving?" He asked hopeful that he could talk his mom into letting him go to Arandi's.

"They were supposed to leave tonight but something came up." Arandi sighed knowing what Dean was thinking.

"PG rating it is then."

Arandi laughed. "You know you have it in you."

"Arandi I can hardly wait to see you and I…" It was too soon to say the L word right?

Glass shattered over the phone and Arandi screamed and Dean could tell that she had dropped her phone.

"Arandi!" He yelled sitting up.

He heard commotion and things breaking.

"I'll teach you to keep your fucking trap shut you bitch."

Dean's heart stuttered at the sound of Nathan's voice.

"Dean I love you." Arandi cried out and then more things breaking, muffled voices.

Two gunshots and the line went dead.
