Bedtime Stories (3x05)
~October 25, 2007~
There was crickets chirping, a bullfrog sat on the highway, croaking. Dean's Impala raced along. It hit a puddle spraying water as the frog hopped out of the way, just in time.
"I don't understand, Dean. Why not?" Sam said angrily as he argued with his brother.
"Because I said so." Dean said calmly but sternly.
"We got the Colt now!" Sam said.
"Sam..." Dean said warningly, he hated it when Sam would try talking him into finding a way to break his demon deal.
"We can summon the Crossroads Demon,…" They shouted over each other's words, getting louder each time.
"We're not summoning anything."
"...pull the gun on her, and force her to let you out of the deal!" Sam told his brother as he tried coming up with a plan.
"We don't even know if that'll work!" Dean said.
"Well then we'll just shoot her! If she dies then the deal goes away!"
"We don't know if that'll work either, Sam! All you're pitching me right now is a bunch of "ifs" and "maybes" and that's not good enough, because if we screw with this deal, you die!"
"And if we don't screw with it, you die! You won't be here to see your kid grow up!"
"Sam, enough! I am not going to have this conversation." Dean said getting really irritated with his little brother.
"Why, because you said so?" Sam challenged.
"YES, BECAUSE I SAID SO!" Dean shouted and right then Lynx, who was in the backseat asleep along with her mom started screaming because she was woken up by Dean's shouting. "Crap." Shia woke up as soon as she heard the baby cry, she reached over to care for her baby. The child calmed down almost instantly under her mother's touch. Shia looked up and glared at the two men.
"Really? You two were fighting again, huh? Well, you know how hard it is to get a 10 week old to sleep? Very hard!" Shia whispered but you could hear irritation in her voice. Dean was listening to her but Sam decided to ignore her.
"Well you're not Dad!" Sam said in his almost normal tone, but it came out as almost a whisper. Shia sighed and sat back still caring for her daughter. Sam and Dean silently stared at each other.
"No, but I am the oldest." Dean said fiercely, he then raised his voice a little. "And I'm doing what's best. And you're going to let this go, you understand me?" Sam and Dean stared at each other angrily. Sam turned away and looked out the window. He looked angry but doesn't saying anything. Dean then looked in the rearview mirror to see Shia staring at him sympathetically. "How's my chunky monkey back there?"
"She's fine, she's just staring at her hands, again." Shia told Dean and he nodded, Shia then motioned for Dean to talk to Sam. Dean rolled his eyes but did what she wanted.
"Tell me about the psychotic killer. C'mon, Sam, tell me about the psychotic killer." Dean said as he looked from the road to Sam. Sam grabbed a paper from his lap and read monotonously.
"Psychotic killer… rips victims apart with brute-like ferocity."
"Any mention of his razor sharp teeth or his creature like claws? Animal eyes?" Shia asked as she suddenly got interested in the case.
"No. But the lunar cycle's right. Look, if it is a werewolf we don't have long, moon's full this Friday and that's the last time it changes for a month."
"Two days, no sweat." Dean said as he increased the speed of the impala slightly. Dean looked in his rearview mirror again and sighed. "Where should we drop her off, babe?"
"She's coming with us." Shia told him as she stared down at her little baby. Dean and Sam raised their eyebrow.
"She is?" Dean asked.
"Yeah, I mean, Halloween is coming up and I don't want to miss her first Halloween. I got her a costume and everything, we're going trick or treating." Shia told them as she sat back in her seat.
"Trick or treating? She can't eat candy yet." Dean said as he kept his eyes on the road.
"Who says the candy was for her? We three will be eating chocolate all night." Shia said as she chuckled slightly along with Sam and Dean.
~October 27, 2007~
Two days later, Sam, Dean, Shia, and baby Winchester was now where they needed to be. So, instead of going straight into the case, they were going to get sleep first and start in the morning. Sam went into the shower first, leaving Dean and Shia with a fussy Lynx.
"She's been doing this a lot. Is that normal?" Dean asked full of concern for his child as he held her close to him. Shia was currently shaking up a baby bottle when she nodded her head.
"Yeah, it's pretty normal, I mean she is a baby, so, she'll cry a lot." Shia told him as she made her way over to Dean, giving the bottle to him. "Here, that's what she wanted. It's around that time to feed her anyways."
"She's so beautiful." Dean said as he watched his baby drink from her bottle.
"Yeah, she looks just like her daddy. Guess you wanted that, huh?" Shia said with a small chuckle. Dean shook his and looked into Shia's eyes.
"When I found out you were pregnant, the only thing I wanted our child to have was my last name and your looks."
"Dean, you—you never told me that." Shia said with wide smile as she looked from Lynx to Dean in awe. "That's so sweet."
"Uh, thanks. I'm not one for being sweet."
"You are so getting soft on me, Winchester." Shia said to him before kissing his lips softly. The kiss didn't last long but Dean wished it did, after every kiss he would miss her lips against his. Moments later Sam came out of the bathroom with his boxers and T shirt. Shia then grabbed her things and made her way into the bathroom for a shower. Dean watched her go in, he then walked up to Sam and handed him Lynx, to which he gladly accept. Dean grabbed his things and made his way to the bathroom.
"Where are you going?" Sam asked as he continued to feed Lynx the rest of her small bottle.
"Going to take a shower with my wife." Dean said with a wink. Sam rolled his eyes and sat down on his bed. "Oh, and don't forget when you burp her to wear a towel on your shoulder, she likes to spit up a lot now."

Dean walked into the bathroom, he saw that Shia had her clothes thrown to the side, as he striped out of his clothing he could feel the steam from the shower hit his skin.
"Hey, babe?" Dean called out to Shia. Shia opened the shower to see Dean fully naked, she scan his body gracefully and bit her lips. Shia could never get tired of seeing his body. "Can I join you?" Dean asked as he gave her one of his famous Winchester smirks.
"Yeah, come on in." Shia said as she went back to her showering trying to ignore the fact that Dean pressed up against her and his hands roaming her body with his lips tracing the water on her skin. Dean led his hands to grab her breast, her nipples were already harden from the water but Dean's touch had an effect on her, Shia moaned softly. "Dean..."
"I love it when you say my name, baby." He whispered in her ear with his deep voice. Shia knew what he wanted and she was more than willing to give it to him. Shia turned around and kissed him hard but passionately on the lips, in the moment of kissing Dean reached down and grabbed her ass, only making her moan once more. Dean then moved both of his hands around her thighs motioning for her to jump, and she did, with her legs wrapped around his waist Shia kissed him deeply.
"I need you." Shia moaned as the continued to kiss. "Please." Dean pressed her against the shower wall and slowly entered inside of her, he moaned as he felt how tight she was even after having a baby. Dean waited for Shia to adjust to his size before he moved forward, he knew just how to make her feel, slow but hard is how she liked and that's how intended to give it to her.

~October 28, 2007~
That night was beautiful and quiet, it was one of those nights where Lynx was well rested and didn't bother mommy, daddy, or uncle Sammy at all. The morning came soon enough and it was time to start the case.
"Okay, who's on baby duty?" Dean asked as he got up to find his suit and tie.
"Well, obviously, it's either me or Sam since you are already trying to get dressed." Shia said with a playful eye roll. Dean smiles at her and softly placed a kiss on her forehead. "You guys go, I'll stay here with baby Winchester."
"How about you and baby Winchester come with us but stay in the car, you guys have to get out sometime." Sam suggested as he went searching for his suit too.
"I guess we could. What do you think daddy Winchester?" Shia asked as she went over to Lynx's crib to find her sleeping peacefully. Shia smiled at the baby.
"Well, I think...I think you should come as long as you're safe and stay away from any type of danger, make sure you have the window down just a little because it can get too hot in the car and—"
"I know, Dean. I know." Shia smiled at her husband as he set "ground rules" for her and Lynx. "You're getting soft, I kind of like it." Shia then walked over to Dean and wrapped her arms around his waist and kissed him softly. The kiss lasted a little long for Sam's liking.
"Guys, please, can we just get ready and go?" Sam asked as he walked in the bathroom with his suit and tie.
...
Shia and baby Lynx stood outside the hospital that Sam and Dean integrated. Lynx was not asleep but she continued to stare at her hands as she moved her fingers, Shia smiled softly at her. Lynx was learning her body parts and quickly. Dean and Sam made their way out of the hospital, they walked past Shia, she rolled her eyes and followed behind them.
"...Wait. Where's Shia? And my kid?!" Dean asked out loud as he was becoming frantic very quickly.
"Right here, Dean. Calm down." Shia said with slight amusement. Dean turned around at the sound of her voice, he walked over to her and kissed her softly. Shia smiled. Sam rolled his eyes and cleared his throat for them to carry on with the case. The Winchester family walked on the street side walk, while Dean looked at Sam's drawing.
"Boy, this is a piece of, uh, art. Really." Dean laughed at Sam's picture, he even showed Shia and she giggled. Sam snatched back the notebook from Dean with a glare.
"Yeah, like you could've done any better. So what did the Doc have to say about Kyle's brothers?" Sam asked as Shia leaned in closer to hear some things about the case.
"Not much, they were D.O.A. at the scene. He did give me the lowdown on the coroner's report." Dean told Sam, but Shia wanted to be in the case too so she spoke up.
"Lemme guess, their hearts were missing." Shia said.
"Nope." Dean said as he sighed. "But chunks of their kidneys, lungs and intestines."
"That's just gross." Sam said as he shook his head.
"Yeah, also definitely not werewolf behavior."
"So, what? Demon? Attacker could've been possessed."
"Why would a Demon stop halfway through an attack?" Shia thought out loud trying to think things through.
"I think that, uh.. Could've... Yeah, I got nothing." Sam said as he stuttered for an idea.
"Me neither." Dean said as he made his way to the impala unlocking it and getting in but end up having to get back out to help Shia put Lynx out of her scroller and into her car seat.
...
It's been a couple of hours since the hospital visit. Shia went to the bathroom to brush her hair and put it in a ponytail, Sam and Dean were in the motel room watching Lynx and discussing the case. Shia stared in the mirror and smiled as the memories of last night with Dean flooded her mind, she then reached for her bag to pull out a brush and a ponytail holder, but when she looks in the mirror once more her stomach was twice as big as it was a few minutes before. Shia lifted up her shirt to reveal an extremely pregnant belly, Shia began to cry as she felt whatever it was inside her move.
Sam and Dean heard the cries from Shia, Dean was first to stand up and look towards the bathroom door. Sam looked over at Lynx's crib to see that she was asleep. Dean walked over closer to the door and knocked.
"Baby, you alright in there?" Dean asked but the response he got was her crying even harder. Dean quickly opened the door to find his pregnant wife. Wait. PREGNANT wife? Dean was shocked to see her stomach extremely big. Sam came in a few moments after to see Shia in the same state that Dean caught her in. Sam was just as shocked as Dean was.
"Shia?" Sam asked, Shia looked up at him and cried some more.
"Well, it ain't mine." Dean said surly to Sam about Shia's pregnant stomach. Sam glared at him as he helped Shia off the floor and to the bed. Shia just pressed her hand against her big belly and cried some more. "What the hell?"
"I don't know. Maybe it's this town." Sam said as he looked at Shia once more. "Maybe it's the case."
"Well, we need to figure this out before some else happen...like another baby that we're not ready for." Dean said as he reached for his jacket and walked out the door quickly. Sam looked at Shia with sympathy and asked, "Will you be alright by yourself with Lynx?"
"Yeah, I'll be fine. Just go find out what's happening." Shia told him with her voice breaking a little. Sam nodded and left the room.
...
Sam and Dean was now driving down a street when Sam noticed how nervous and stressed Dean looked.
"Dude, are you okay?" Sam asked his big brother.
"Honestly? No." Dean said as he tighten his grip on the stirring wheel. "I mean, seeing Shia pregnant again terrified me. We're not ready for another baby...Lynx is enough. I don't want anymore kids since I'm going to hell."
"Dean, you're not—"
"Sam, please, alright? Look, I might have looked like a bad husband but that was...that was something."
"It's probably just the case, Dean." Sam reminded his brother. "Besides, you guys haven't done anything for a while."
"Uh, the shower."
"Gross." Sam said as he had a sour face as he thought about Dean and Shia having sex in the shower. Just then an ambulance quickly passed by the impala to only have Sam and Dean look at each other, Dean turned the impala around to follow the ambulance. Hospital activity around a nurses' station. Sam and Dean, in suits, approached the station. Two Sheriff's deputies exit a patient's room. Sam and Dean hastily alter course and focused on a set of flowers on the counter. The deputies passed by. Sam and Dean turned and continued down the corridor to the room where the deputies exited. The doctor they met earlier, Dr. Garrison walked toward Sam and Dean, who were standing in the doorway.
"Detectives." Dr. Garrison greeted as he sighed.
"Dr. Garrison." Dean greeted with a nod.
"What the hell is going on here? My whole town is going insane." The doctor said in a frustrated, distressed way.
"We'll let you know as soon as we do." Sam said as he slightly shook his head. The doctor nodded before leaving the room, Sam and Dean moved into the room.
"Miss Watson? Hi. We just need to ask you a few questions." Dean said to the victim, a woman with pretty brown hair. Dean and Sam produced their badges.
"Do we have to go over this again? Now?" The woman, Miss Watson, asked. She just lost her boyfriend, Ken, and now all she wants to do is rest and try to forget today.
"We'll try to be brief. Miss Watson, can you tell us how you got away?" Sam promised and asked if she remembered anything. Julie nodded.
"I didn't eat as much as Ken did, so I wasn't as out of it. And, when the old woman was... carving up Ken, I shoved her, and she fell. Cracked her head on the stove." Julie told them but then she paused. "She's dead, right? I- I killed her?"
"Do you have any idea why she'd do this to you?" Dean asked avoiding the question all together.
"No! One minute she was a sweet old lady and the next she was, like, a monster."
"Can you remember anything else?" Sam asked.
"Um, yeah." Julie said as she sniffed. "Did you find a little girl there, by any chance?"
"A ... little girl? At the house?"
"I thought I saw her outside the window. She, she just disappeared. Just vanished, into thin air." Julie told them as she shook her head. Sam and Dean looked at each other. "It m-must've been the drugs."
"This disappearing girl — what, what'd, what did she look like?" Dean asked as he tried to wrap his around the situation.
"Does it matter?" Julie asked almost confused.
"Yes. Every detail matters." Sam said professionally.
"She had this dark, dark hair and really pale skin. She was around eight. She was a beautiful child. It was... odd to see her in the middle of something so horrible." Julie said as she sighed.
...
The Winchester brothers was now inside the old lady's house, where she tried to eat the two people.
"Well, there's no sulfur anywhere. How about the EMF?" Dean asked Sam.
"Yeah, it's going nuts. When I went over here by the window ... There's definitely a spirit here." Sam told his brother.
"Who stood outside the crime scene and watched." Dean finished his thought out loud.
"Looks like."
"What the hell do you make of that?"
"Actually I do have a theory. Uh, sort of. It could explain a lot." Sam said as he looked at Dean.
"Hit me."
"Well, thinkin' about fairy tales."
"Oh that's — that's nice. You think about fairy tales often?" Dean teased Sam.
"No, Dean, I'm talking about the murders. A guy and a girl? Hiking through the woods, an old lady tries to eat 'em? That's Hansel and Gretel.
And then we got three brothers, arguing over how to build houses, attacked by the Big Bad Wolf. And Shia, the beautiful girl who gets pregnant by her lover when it should be forbidden."
"Three Little Pigs. And...Rapunzel." Dean muttered shaking his head.
"Yeah."
"Actually those guys were a little chubby. And my girls hair is getting pretty long. Forbidden love? Really? Well, wait, I thought those things ended with, uh, everybody living happily ever after?"
"No, no. Not the originals. See the Grimm Brothers' stuff was kinda the folklore of its day, full of sex, violence, cannibalism. Now, it got sanitized over the years, turned into Disney flicks and bedtime stories." Sam informed Dean as he looked around the room once more.
"So you think the murders are uh, what? A re-enactment? That's a little crazy." Dean said as he shook his head.
"Crazy as what? Every day of our lives?" Sam said.
"Touché." Dean said with a nod, then he paused. "How's the creepy ghost girl involved?"
"Uhm ... Well, she must've been here for a reason. I'm willing to bet you top dollar she was at the construction site too."
"We gotta do research now, don't we?" Dean said, more like pouted. Sam shrugged, Dean closed his eyes. Just then Dean's phone ringed and it was Shia. Dean quickly answered.
"Hello? Babe?" Dean said into the phone.
"Please tell me you boys have a theory." Shia whined, it sounded like she was in pure pain. Dean got worried as he heard her voice.
"Yeah, we do. Are you okay?"
"Oh yeah, besides the fact that my 'water' just broke." Shia hissed into the phone. Dean's eyes went wide.
"What?! Hey, Sam, what's the real ending in Rapunzel?" Dean quickly asked his brother.
"Uh, she gives birth to twins...but..." Sam started to say but realization hits him quickly.
"But what?" Dean asked with his voice full of concern.
"She dies during the process, leaving the devoted lover alone with children."
"Babe, I'll be there soon. Okay? I'm dropping Sam off at the library." Dean told his wife as he hurriedly walked to the impala.
"Just hurry!" Shia told him as she hung up. Dean and Sam got in the impala and hurried off. Dean got to the library and dropped Sam off, leaving himself to go face his wife who was in labor. Dean parked the impala in the parking lot of the motel, he quickly walked in to see Shia on the floor and he can hear Lynx crying her eyes out.
"Shia?" Dean walked over helping her up. Shia got on the bed and slapped Dean's hand.
"Don't worry about me, worry about Lynx." Shia told him as she continued to take deep breaths. Dean quickly walked over to his daughter and picked her up. "She probably needs a diaper change, she's probably hungry too. I tried to get to her but the labor pains is just too much."
"I'm so sorry, babe. I wish I could help." Dean said after lying Lynx down to get her diaper changed. Dean changed her quickly, and then got a bottle that was already laid out and fed it to her.
"It's okay. So...what's the theory?" Shia asked after she grunted from her labor pains. "God, I never thought I'd be in the position ever again."
"Well, fairytales..."
"That's sweet, Dean, really. But, what's the theory?"
"That's it."
"Fairytales?" Shia asked as her eyebrows lifted in confusion. Dean nodded as he continued to feed Lynx, she was drinking like a pro. "How do I fit into it then?"
"You're Rapunzel."
"What? No. I don't have long hair. I'm not white. And I'm certainly not a princess."
"You and I both know that ghosts do not see color. And yeah, your hair has grown, it's almost at your mid back. And yeah...you are a princess." Dean told Shia as he pulled the empty bottle out of Lynx's mouth, he then placed the baby on his shoulders and started to pat her back trying to get her to burp. Shia began to groan in pain as the contractions were getting closer. "Is there anything I can do?"
"No, Dean, there isn't. So, I'm going to die, huh?" Shia asked as she leaned back on the bed.
"No, no, you're not going to die. Okay? Me and Sam are trying hard to figure things out. We just can't figure out the little girl."
"Have you tried to hospital?"
"Why would we—?"
"Maybe she's not a spirit just yet. What if she's just hanging on by a thread?" Shia said as she gave him her best conclusion. Dean nodded as he heard his baby burp in his ear, she started to fuss again but Dean started to bounce her to get her settle down, then he slowly but her in the portable crib. "Go. I can handle this, Dean."
"Are you sure?" Dean asked as he looked from Shia to Lynx.
"Yeah, I'm sure. What you just did put her to sleep for another hour or so." Shia told him. Dean walked over to her and kissed her softly before leaving again.
...
Dean called Sam to only find out that he couldn't find any information but did see the little girl again at another crime scene.
"You couldn't call, Sam?" Dean said frustrated as he walked towards his brother. Sam shrugged as he tossed Dean an apple that he got from the crime scene. And walked back over to the house to help the paramedics with the girl. Dean sat on the hood of the Impala, playing with the apple. Sam approached.
"Paramedics picked up Cinderella." Sam informed Dean.
"That's good." Dean said as he continued to play with the apple.
"Yeah."
"So, how did you know something was happening?"
"I saw the pumpkin and started thinking if fairy tales like Cinderella, for example." Sam told Dean. Dean looked at Sam and then back the apple and then at Sam again.
"Dude, could you be more gay?" Dean asked as he rolled his eyes. Sam thought about it a minute, not really answering. "Don't answer that." Dean tossed the apple to Sam. "So... Little girl, shiny red apple. I'm guessing that means something to you, fairy tale boy?"
"I think it's Snow White."
"Snow White? Ah I saw that movie. Or the porn version anyway, 'cause there was this wicked Stepmother? Woo, she was wicked." Dean said with a grin.
"There is a wicked Stepmother. And she tries to kill Snow White with a poison apple."
"But the apple doesn't actually kill the girl, right?"
"No. Puts her into a deep sleep, so deep it's almost like she's dead." Sam said as he tossed the apple back to Dean. They both got into the Impala. Moments later, Sam and Dean were at the hospital.
"No, sorry. We don't have any comatose little girls." The nurse with blonde hair said as she shook her head.
"You sure?" Sam asked.
"Totally. It's mostly old guys. And, well... Callie. She's been around since before I started here."
"Callie?" Dean asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, it's so sad. And poor Dr. Garrison, he just ... won't give up on her." The nurse said with great sympathy.
"Is Callie one of his patients?"
"No. His daughter." Sam and Dean arrived at Callie Garrison's room. They stopped outside the doorway. They watched as Dr. Garrison read to Callie.
"...and the Huntsman stepped inside, and in the bed lay the Wolf. So the Huntsman took a pair of scissors and cut open the Wolf's belly." Dr. Garrison read out loud to his teenage, comatose daughter. Sam and Dean glanced at each other. Dr. Garrison noticed them. He put down the book, got up and walked to Sam and Dean.
"Detectives. Can I help you?" The doctor said after he cleared his throat, he was annoyed that they interrupted his time with his child.
"We just... heard that Callie is your daughter." Dean said as he looked from Callie to the doctor. Dean felt extremely sorry for him.
"And we wanted to say how very sorry we are." Sam said.
"Yeah, I have a daughter myself and if something like this happened to her, I wouldn't know what to do." Dean said.
"Well, uh. Thank you. If you'll excuse me." Dr. Garrison said with a nod before leaving the room and Sam and Dean following. Dean looked at his phone to see a text from Shia.
'The pains are getting closer...hurry..it's almost time.'
"Oh, heading this way? We'll walk with you. How long's Callie been like that?" Dean said as he walked side by side with the doctor.
"We don't mean to intrude. We can't possibly understand how hard it must be for you seeing her like this." Sam told him. And Dean mumbled, "I can."
"It's not easy. She's uh, been here since she was eight years old." Dr. Garrison told them.
"That's when she was poisoned?" Sam asked.
"Yeah. Swallowed, uh, bleach. Never figured out how she got her hands on the bottle. My wife found her, uh, brought her to the ER here and I was on call."
"You're wife was uh, was that Callie's stepmother?" Dean asked. Dr. Garrison stopped walking and looked at Dean.
"Actually, yes. How'd you know that?"
"Lucky guess." Dean said with a shrug, he briefly looked at Sam for confirmation.
"Well, Julie was the only mother that uh, Callie ever knew. My wife passed away last year and, uh ... it's just my daughter and me now." The docter said with a pause. "She's all I've got left. Uhm, excuse me. I've gotta get back to work."
"Yeah." Dean said dismissively. Dr. Garrison walked away. Sam and Dean shared another look. "Poor guy. So, your theory is right."
"Very right." Sam said with a shake of his head. Just then a elderly victim with wolf scratches and bad wounds. Dean looked at Sam.
"What was that last story the doc was reading to Callie?"
"Uh, little red riding hood."
After interviewing the nurses, both of the Winchester brother found the next of kin. A little girl.
"Hey, you find a way to stop Callie, all right?" Dean said as he was about to make his way outside.
"What about you?" Sam asked.
"I'm gonna go stop the Big Bad Wolf." Dean said as he walked off but turned around again. "Which is the weirdest thing I've ever said." Dean walked way. Sam stared after him and shook his head.
The truth will set you free. Literally. Sam ended up convincing Dr. Garrison that Callie was a ghost and she was hurting people in the town by fairy tales, the doctor also found out that his late wife poisoned his daughter so she could have him all to herself. Dean was done with his work at the little girl's house, he made sure she was safe before he took off to get to Shia. Dean raced down the street in his impala and ran into the motel room to only find Shia with a flat stomach and her cradling their daughter in her arms.
"Are you okay?" Dean asked as he walked over to her and kissed her lightly. Shia nodded and kissed him again as the both looked down at their daughter. "She okay?"
"Yes, Dean, she's fine." Shia said with a smile. Dean reached out to hold his baby and Shia gladly gave her to him.
"It's nice to see you back to normal."
"Yeah, it's nice to feel normal. I never thought I'd pregnant again, so soon." Shia said with a chuckle. Dean leaned over and kissed her once more. Seconds later, Dean's phone ringed.
"Yeah, Sammy, everything is okay."
~October 31, 2007~
Shia walked out of the recent motel room they were staying in with Lynx in her arms, dressed up like a princess. Dean and Sam looked up at Shia to see the pretty dress Lynx was in. Dean got up and walked over to her.
"Look at my chunky monkey." Dean said with awe as he reached over and took the baby away from Shia and holding her close. "Where are you two supposed to be going?"
"We're going treat or treating, Dean. Remember?" Shia said with a small smile as she started to put blankets in Lynx's carrier. Sam just smiled as he got up and grabbed his jacket.
"While you guys do that...I have other things to do...like go to a bar." Sam said but Shia looked at him with suspicion. Sam looked at her with pleading eyes to let it go and she did. Moments later Sam was gone. Now, it was Shia's and Lynx's time to leave.
"I don't like this idea. It's cold out." Dean pouted as Shia got her baby bag ready.
"Dean, we're not going to be outside. There's this church that offers candy and fun baby things. I wasn't going to tell you that because I know how you feel about churches." Shia told Dean as she walked over and reached for Lynx but Dean backed up. "Dean—"
"Take a picture. I mean it's her first Halloween, you know?" Dean said. Shia saw right through him, the reason why he wanted her to take a picture because this is the first and last Halloween he will share with his baby and he wanted it to be a memory for her. Shia smiled a little but nodded anyways, she went to her purse and pulled her her small portable camera she bought in case of moments like this. She'll have the pictures printed out soon. After the picture Shia reached over to grab Lynx and placed her in the carrier, she was about to leave when Dean spoke up.
"Wait. I'm coming with you." Dean said as he grabbed his jacket.
"You are?" Shia based with a raised eyebrow.
"Well, yeah, it's our first Halloween as a married couple and as parents. I want to share it with you." Shia smiled as Dean's words and motioned for him to come along.
The night ended up being perfect. They had so much fun, but Shia couldn't help but think what Sam was doing...
