Disclaimer; I don't own supernatural

A few hours later he woke up a little groggily, he felt the rumble of the impala and knew he must have fell asleep in her. He opened his eyes and looked at Sam and that's when it all came back. Bobby had found the demon and that's where they were going. He noted that his back felt a lot better. Sam looked nervous, still he was grabbing the wheel much harder then he had to . He still didn't want to talk with Sam yet. However that's when Sam eyes flickered over to him then back to the road.

"How'd you sleep?"

"Great...Where are we?" Dean asked.

" Illinois."

"How long have you been driving." he asked then yawned the pain pills were still making him feel tired.

"Just a few hours, I stopped at a burger king for breakfast, you didn't wake up you hungry?" he asked. Dean wasn't the pain pills he had taken also had a side effect of a little nausea. He shook his head then realize that Sam was driving and hadn't seen him.

"Nope."

"What's going on?" Sam asked concerned.

"My back, I took some pain pills the good kind."

"You should have told me, before you took them." Sam scolded and Dean laughed and Sam turned to look at him confused and hurt.

"Sammy it's just you sound like you, when you say stuff like that and I miss it." and there came his pensive look again, he knew what he was thinking about so he let them lapse into silence. He looked out the window, if they were going to talk about this he sure wasn't going to start it.

"Dean."Sam started then trailed off again. Sam didn't speak again for the next hour and when he did it was just to tell Dean that he was getting off on the next exit. After they got back on the road it was another few hours before Sam spoke again.

"What if I don't like it?" Sam asked slowly.

"Don't like what? Being you?" Dean asked.

"From what you say about hunter Sam he's a real psycho, so do I really wanted to be with him."

"Yes because you mellow him out, your logical and caring and honestly I think your a much bigger part of him then he is of you."

"What if it's not, what if he's bigger or I get trapped somewhere in his subconscious.

"I won't let that happen."

"What if you don't have a choice?"

"Sam." Dean sighed. "I. Won't . Let. That. Happen." he said slowly and forcefully. Sam nodded but his grip on the wheel was still very tight, but maybe a tiny bit looser then before. His head was feeling clearer and his back better so Dean asked.

"Do you want me to drive?" Sam shook his head and kept his eyes focused on the road. Dean sighed , Sam could drive for as long as he wanted to. A few hours later though and Dean notice that Sam eyes were closing more often then they needed to.

"We're switching." he said leaving no room for argument and Sam pulled the car over to the side and parked it. Dean got out and switched positions with Sam and merged back onto the freeway. He drove for a few minutes until he heard Sam snoring. The sun was setting so he put his visor down, blocking the glare of the sun. He looked over quickly at Sam then back at the road. He had to get them to Albuquerque before hunter Sam woke up and started asking questions. Last time he had seen a sign they were still about a thousand miles away. So he was going to have to drive all night lucky for him.

The first thing he wanted to do when he pulled in Albuquerque many hours later was to sleep but the first thing he did when he pulled into Albuquerque was he called Bobby.

"Hello." Bobby's gruff voice answered him.

"Bobby do you know where she is? Like where exactly?"

"I got you a city."Dean cursed under his breath even though he knew that was probably going to be his answer.

"Sorry Bobby."

"Dean, you sound exhausted."

"I am but I have to find the demon before Sam wakes up, which he's gotta be doing some time soon."

"Well I try to see if I can find anything."

"Thanks Bobby."

"Get some sleep idjit." Dean smiled.

"I will bye Bobby." he hung up the phone. He looked over at Sam who was still asleep, he hoped he would stay that way for awhile so that he could find the demon. The good news was that in his present state he tended to sleep more then he had before he was split, which gave him a little bit more time. He grabbed Sam laptop from the back and found somewhere with free WI-fi, he looked for any place that jumped out at him. Who he really need to look it up was Sam but hunter Sam wouldn't help him and Sammy seemed to have some reservations about it as well. He getting more tired and then heard his phone ring he opened it and said.

"Hello?"

"Dean I think I have a pretty good idea where the demon is."

"That's good where?'

"A bar called Ryan's Bar."

'"Imaginative." Dean said dryly and tiredly, boy he was tired.

"You sure?"

"Pretty sure." Bobby said.

"Well that's great, I'm to go check us into a hotel then sleep for forever." he said and hung up, it occurred to him he didn't say goodbye but he doubted Bobby would care. He managed to get them to a motel without incident and checked-in too. He slipped a key card and the number of their room into Sam 's hands, and made his way into the room. He collapsed on top of the first bed and it didn't take him long to fall asleep.
