Chapter 25
"Yeah it's just. Everything we talked about the other day. Ever since my dad died...anyway I just needed to get out of there for a few minutes. Plus your my only gal friend...it's tough being surrounded by guys."
Chloe laughed, "Hey call me anytime... seriously I've got nothing better to do!"
They sat and talked for another hour until Chloe had demon business to take care of. Jess slowly walked back to the motel. Dean and Sam left a note saying they'd be back soon from the store.
Cas was still sleeping on the bed the boys had placed him on earlier. Jessica sat beside him waiting. The angel had done so much for the Winchesters and for her.
He had risked his life fighting his fellow angel and teaming up with Chloe to protect Jessica, an orphan who sometimes felt truly alone.
Castiel turned his head to the right near Jess, "What... What day is it?" Jess jumped at his gravely voice.
"Oh my gosh! Uh you've been out since last night when you got back... I think you were gone for a day or so... I'm not sure how time works."
Cas nodded, "Dean... Where is Dean?" Jess looked over at the door.
"He went to the store with Sam. They'll be back soon."
The angel nodded his head before closing his eyes again. A few minutes went by before Cas let out a muffled snore.
Jess chuckled to herself and finished packing before the Winchesters returned.
"All I'm saying is if there were demons at the store we should have heard about it," Dean says as he enters the motel room.
"Dean, we don't always know when a demons in town."
"Well Sammy, we smelt sulphur and apparently some people died. If that doesn't scream demon then I don't know what does."
"Hey Jess," Sam says as he enters the motel room. "You okay? I mean earlier you stormed out."
"Yeah Sam, sorry about that. Some things happened while you were in the past. I guess it just had me a bit riled."
"Nothing hurt you, right, no demons got in?" Dean asked.
"I'm fine Dean. Don't worry I can take care of myself."
"You shouldn't have to take care of yourself. You have us for that."
"Dean, you don't have to worry I was fine." She approached Dean and gave him a hug.
