Chapter 21: He's got a job for us
Dean wakes up, hearing Sam clacking away at his laptop. He groans, his head still aching a little.
"You gonna sleep all day?" Sam asks. Dean groans, sitting up.
"What time is it?"
"11:30"
"Already?" He asks, looking at Sam. Sam nods. "Man, where does the day go?" Sam chuckles. "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"Because I knew you needed your sleep. You haven't slept good lately." Sam knew that was because his brother was worried about Arianna.
"Did Ari call?"
"Nope, not yet." Dean nods and gets up. "Well I'm headed into the shower."
"K." Dean grabs clean clothes and heads into the bathroom.
Arianna had been up for 3 hours, and she was ready to go back to the hotel. If only the stupid doctor would bring her, her rehab instructions and prescriptions. She sighs, Randy looks at her.
"I know you're ready, but huffing and puffing won't make the doctor come back any faster." Arianna rolls her eyes. She carefully lays back, closing her eyes, trying to calm down. She begins humming 'Fight the Good Fight'. "Are you humming your entrance music?" Randy asks.
"Yeah, it keeps me relaxed." She replies.
"You're weird." Randy says, she smiles. The door opens and the doctor comes in with a wheelchair.
"Sorry about the wait." Arianna scoffs. "Here's your prescription, and your rehab instructions. Once you get back to Elkhart, you'll have to follow up you're rehab with your physician there." He hands her the papers.
"Don't worry doc, I will." He nods.
"You're free to go." He pushes the wheelchair over towards her.
"I don't want to use that." She says.
"Sorry, you can't use crutches yet, not until your shoulder is healed up." She sighs. Randy comes over and helps her into the wheelchair. He wheels her down to the exit, where his rental is waiting.
"I've got a chair for you to use at the hotel already.' He says, she looks down.
"Thanks." He wheels her to the car, and helps her in the passengers seat. He gets in the driver's seat and drives to the hotel.
Dean comes out of the shower and heads over to his bed. He collapses on the bed and looks over at Sam. He notices a look of hesitation on Sam's face.
"What is it, Sam?" He asks, not wanting to wait on Sam to tell him.
"Bobby called while you were in the shower."
"Yeah? What did he want?" Sam sighs.
"He's got a job for us." Dean hangs his head.
"That sucks." He says, Sam nods. Dean knew this would happen, he'd have to break it off with Arianna now that they were leaving. Sam looks at him, he knew what Dean was thinking.
"You don't have to, you know." Dean looks at him, confused.
"Don't have to what?"
"Break it off with her. I'm staying together with Ryse."
"Come on Sam. Maryse doesn't even know the real you, and Ari doesn't need to be tied to someone who can't be there for her."
Sam clears his throat. "Uhm, actually, Ryse does know." Dean looks at him, in shock.
"What?"
"Uhm, the night after the accident, when you were staying at the hospital with Arianna. Ryse was asking all kinds of questions, so I just told her the truth."
"And she believed you?"
"Yeah... She said it all made sense, about the invisible attackers and all..."
"And? She doesn't care?"
"It scares the hell out of her, but she said she still wants to give us a shot." Dean smirks.
"Huh... Well good for you Sammy. You finally got a girl." Dean says.
"I'm not the only one who does, Dean. You've got Ari." Before Dean could cut in, Sam cuts him off. "And don't give me that , 'I'm not going to tie her down', crap, or 'she deserves better' crap. You need to give Arianna credit. She's still with you now, knowing about our job and everything. She obviously wants to be with you." After a minute, Dean nods. He's about to say something when his phone rings.
"Hello?" He answers.
"Hey Dean, it's Ari."
"Hey Ari... How ya feeling?" Sam looks at him.
"Eh, okay I guess... Randy said you wanted me to call you when I got back to Eau Claire."
"Yeah. Can I come over for a bit? I need to talk to you about something."
"Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, everything is fine."
"Okay. Yeah, sure. I'd love to see you."
"Okay. I'll be over in a few."
"Okay, bye."
"Bye." He hangs up, sighing.
"Dean, you're not gonna..." Sam starts. Dean looks at him and gets up, grabbing his keys, and leaves. "Damnit!" Sam yells, not caring if anyone could hear him or not.
Man.. Dean is really stubborn sometimes! Please review and lemme know what you thought!
