"Lexie...wait" Dean said as he grabbed by the arm.
"Yeah?"
"What do you know about Sam and Ruby hooking up while I was in the pit?"
Now
Lexie's eyes went wide in both fear and shock. She didn't understand what Dean was asking her. There were a few times that Ruby had shown up in a base they were working on then there was a few nights ago. But as far as Sam and Ruby hooking up that was impossible.
"Lex?" Dean asked calling her attention back to him.
"I...don't...I mean..yeah Ruby showed up a few times on a couple of cases and then the other night. But I don't knew anything about her and Sam hooking up." Lexie answered.
But Dean could tell she was trying to make herself believe that there was no way Sam and Ruby had been hooking up. He also could tell that she was hiding something from him. And he wanted to. Know what it was she was keeping from him.
"Lex?"
"Yeah...Get Away From Him!" Lexie screamed suddenly. As she grabbed the demon blade that was laying on the table behind dean and then stud in front of him holding the blade above her head.
Dean didn't understand what was going on. There was nothing there. He moves slowly standing directly in front of Lexie. He didn't know what it was she was seeing but it must have been something bad for her react in such away that she would be standing in front of him holding a knife.
"Lexie...hey put the knife down okay there is nothing there." Dean said slowly.
"You don't... See it Dean its a demon and its standing right behind you. Its trying to take you from me..."
"Lexie listen to me alright. There is no demon okay ...there is nothing here."
"Dean... Its right behind you!"
"Okay Lex ...do you see the actual demon or just the black Smoke?" Dean asked remembering that Bobby had once told him that Lexie had a gift of being able to see demons. Just like her mother.
"The...black...smoke... It was just like... Hovering behind you."
"Is it still there?"
"No...no its gone..."
Dean breathed a sigh of relief. The tension in Lexie's body seemed to slowly fade away. But the fear in her eyes was still just as clear as day. Only it wasn't the fear of the demon that read clear in her eyes. It was the fear of kissing him again that Dean could see clear a day in her eyes. That wasn't the only emotion he saw. Fear,loss,love,sadness,hopeless, and yet there was still a small glimpse of hope in her eyes. That seem to come from the fact that he was standing right there with her.
"Lexie..."
"Yeah..."
As if something had suddenly made him realize that kissing her was the right thing to do in these moment. Dean lifted her chin up words and kissed her softly on the lips. Lexie was shocked at first and didn't know what to do. The shock only lasted a few moments when Dean felt her lock her arms around his neck and pull herself closer to him. The soft chaste kissed soon turned passionate as Dean backed Lexie up against the wall of the study.
Lexie ran her nails hard down Dean's back causing a moan to come from him. Shed wanted this since shed been a teenager. It was a dream and just as suddenly as it started dean pulled back a look of horror on his face a look of regret,guilt,and pure hate crossed his handsome face.
"Dean...hey what's wrong?" Asked Lexie.
"Its nothing. Don't worry about it." Answered Dean softly.
"Look at me Dean...I know something is wrong you can tell me."
"I can't Lex not...not yet... Not... Ever..."
Lexie reached up and touched his cheek. She knew what was bothering him. It was hell. All the things that happen to him down there. She couldn't imagine what had happen to him. Even though she'd seen some if what had happen it didn't compare to what he'd seen.
"How long were you down there?" Lexie asked softly almost scared to ask.
"I can't ...Lex "
"Dean please... I won't ask anything just tell me how long."
"Forty."
"What?"
"You asked how long. I was in the pit for forty years."
Lexie gasped. She didn't realize he'd been down there that long. It had only been four months. But she guessed time moved differently down there. Four months turned out to be forty years. Dean turned around not being able to look her in the eyes. He couldn't not after all he'd done. He was about to make a brick for the stairs when he felt Lexie's hand on his back.
"I wish...I could have stopped her."
"I know...I'm going back to bed. Night Lex." Dean said as he shrugged her hand off and took off upstairs.
Lexie just stud in the study and watched him. Her heart bre king for him as he left her standing there.
"Goodnight Dean." She finally answered as she turned and went back to the kitchen to finish her drink before going back to bed herself.
