An: I send my reader all my love, and hope that you all have a good day.

Chapter 21 Plan and Preparation

The next few days passed in a flash, and Dean couldn't tell if it was because he slept a lot of the time. Or because he was having such a good time with his family. Not that he really cared, because his pain seemed to melt away when he looked at how happy his family were.

"You should... marry her." Dean said seriously to his little brother, one afternoon when Jessica excused herself to fix dinner.

"You know, I've thought the very same thing for months now, but I don't know how to go about it. Sam confided in his big brother. How would you propose?" Sam asked after a couple of minutes of silence.

"I don't know... little brother, I have never... really thought about it. What does... she like to do?" Dean asked simply.

"She likes to read. She likes music. Oh and I think she may have fallen in love with the Impala. You should have heard her, Dean. She was worse than you, she kept telling me to show her what Baby could do." Sam answered rolling his eyes at everyone's insistence of calling the Impala "Baby" as if it were it's name.

"We'll that is her...name Sammy. Dean said with a smile. First of all, you are... going to need... a ring." Dean suggested.

"Where am I going to get a ring, without her snooping and finding out what I'm up to? And I don't even know what size she would wear." Sam said wide eyed.

"Don't worry... about the ring, I know... where I can get one, just figure... out a way to get... me her size. The way I see it... is you have... all kinds of options when... it comes to proposing. Find out if she's reading... anything...you could use a...highlighter to mark words...out that...you want to...tell her. Or you could sing...to her, and then...pop the question. Wait, I could...teach her how to...tune up the...Impala." Dean rattled off his solutions, but the last one was his favorite, because he would be killing two birds with one stone.

"Ookay, not sure that I get where you are going with this." Sam said in confusion.

"Don't worry...little brother all you have...to do is write...will you marry...me. I got your...back on the...rest." Dean said giving his brother a confident smile.

"What are you two whispering about?" Jess asked curiously as she came outside.

"We're just working...on something...for Uncle Bobby's...birthday, since we both...have missed it...for the last few...years." Dean quickly span his lie.

"That's great, you wouldn't want him to think that you forgot about him. Jess said with a proud smile. I was thinking, you and I should hang out, for a while. Jess told Dean before she added. Just the two of us. I know we talked on the phone, but we never just hung out before." Jess said in a matter of fact tone.

"Wait, why can't I come too?" Sam whined.

"Sorry, Sammy boy, but you'd... just be a third... wheel." Dean chuckled.

"So what do... you... want to do?" Dean asked as he followed Jessica out of the front door.

"I don't know, I thought that we might just sit on the porch and talk for a while." Jess answered.

"Really...'cause the porch...isn't... all that interesting. How about...we go...for a drive?" Dean asked with a hopeful smile.

Dean could tell since dinner that there was something that she had been wanting to say.

"Dean I really don't think that you are in any condition to drive." Jess scolded, even though a drive did sound like what she needed.

"Hey, I'm capable!" Dean protested with a scowl.

"Yeah, you're capable of passing out at the wheel." Jess laughed.

"Ha ha ha, not...funny. I wasn't...talking about me...driving. Just think...you could go...as fast as...you wanted to." Dean said with a grin as he dangled the keys in front of her.

"Well, when you put it that way, how could I possibly say no!" Jess asked with a laugh.

They drove around for about thirty minutes, and Dean knew something was up when she pulled off and killed the engine.

"I think maybe...she's ready for...a tune up." Dean said into the awkward silence that was hanging there.

"Yeah, maybe I can help you with that, if you want." Jessica offered

That would... be good. Because if...Sammy touches her...she'd probably burst...into flames. Dean said as the air still felt a little awkward.

"If I tell you something, do you promise not to tell anyone else?" Jessica asked with a huge grin.

"Um, I usually...don't like to...keep secrets...but I guess...that I'm pretty...trustworthy." Dean answered sincerely.

"I'm going to have a baby!" Jess squealed as her grin got even wider.

"That's awesome...but why...are you telling me...this, and not Sam?" Dean asked confusingly.

"Because, I think Sam is getting ready to ask me to marry him, and I want to be sure that it's not because I'm having his baby." Jessica answered in a whisper.

"I don't think that...Sammy would...propose to you...just because you...are pregnant."

"I just want to make sure. Jess said. So, have you ever asked a girl to marry you?" Jess asked curiously.

"No, I never met...the right one." Dean said a little sadly.

"How would you propose to the woman you love?" Jess asked with curiosity still evident.

That's when it struck him this would be the perfect opportunity to get what he needed.

"I don't know...never really thought... about it until this...happened. Dean said as he mindlessly rubbed his chest. But I think...it would be something...like this you know...in my car. He said as he pushed a curl out of Jessica's face and took the ring off of his finger. I would tell... her how amazing... and beautiful she is...hand how my...life wouldn't...be the worth living...without her. Then I would say...will you marry...me?" Dean said as he gave her a soft platonic peck on the lips, and placed his ring on her finger.

"Maybe you should give Sam, some pointers, because any girl in their right mind would say yes to that. Jess said with tears in her eyes. Although you might want to have the ring taking down a couple of sizes." She said as she tried to laugh.

"My brother would...be a lucky man...to get to spend...the rest of his life...with you." Dean said as he brushed the tears away from her eyes with his thumb.

"We probably should head back, before they think that we've ran off together." Jess said with a smile.

"So, I'm going to...be an uncle, huh? Well I hope...he or she doesn't...come out half...grown, or takes after...their dad when...it comes to potty training...'cause Sammy was...hell to potty...train." Dean said as he tried to push away the bad thoughts of not being there for the newest Winchester's arrival.

"Well, maybe the baby will take after their mother and uncle." Jess said not believing how easy Dean made it to laugh even when he was literally dying.

"Now that would be one Awesome kid!" Dean said with a killer grin as they headed back to Bobby's.
