Dean walks into the bedroom, not at all surprised to find Renee still curled up in bed. He walks over and sits down on the edge. Reaching over, he rubs Renee's arm. "Babe," he says softly. Leaning down, he presses a soft kiss to Renee's cheek. "Renee." He smiles when Renee groans.

"My head hurts," she moans.

"I'm sure it does." He lifts up enough to let her roll onto her back. "There's water and Tylenol on the nightstand. I have to run out for a bit."

Renee looks up at Dean. "What time is it?"

"Eleven." He smiles again when she groans. "Sleep more. I'll be back in a little bit." He gives her a quick kiss before standing up.

"I can't believe I drank that much."

"You were smashed. I haven't seen you like that in a while."

"I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize, Babe. Go back to sleep. I'll be back in a bit."

It's nearly an hour later when Dean returns home. He isn't surprised when he doesn't find Renee on the main level. He smiles as he sets the bear he'd gotten for her on her spot of the couch. He walks back to the kitchen to start on lunch. After he gets everything started, he makes his way upstairs. He sits down on the edge of the bed and rubs Renee's arm.

"Renee," he says as he leans down to kiss her temple. "Time to get up, Baby. You need to eat something. I'm making Ramen."

Renee turns her head to look at Dean. "Why'd you let me go out last night?" she mumbles.

Dean smiles. "You would have kicked me if I told you not to go."

"I hate you."

"I know. I need to get back to the kitchen. And you need to get up. Go shower. It'll help you feel better. Come down when you're done. You need to eat."

"Okay."

Dean looks over when he hears footsteps on the stairs. He smiles at the sight of Renee. "Well, there she is," he says. "How are you feeling?"

"Like crap," Renee answers. She walks over to the counter. "My head hurts."

"Did you take the Tylenol?"

"Yes." She looks up at Dean when he moves to stand next to her. "Shower helped."

"Good." He leans down and gives her a quick kiss. "Go on and sit. I'll bring you some soup."

"Thank you." She lets him kiss her once more before she turns and heads to the couch. When she sees the giant teddy bear, she has to stop and smile. She glances back into the kitchen where Dean is standing at the stove. "I love the bear, Dean."

Dean glances back and smiles. "I saw it and couldn't resist." He walks over a minute later after spooning some soup into a bowl. He isn't at all surprised to find Renee holding onto the bear. "You're gonna have to put him down so you can eat."

"But he's so soft." She pouts at him but ultimately moves the bear to sit beside her. "Fine." She takes the bowl from Dean. "Thank you."

"You're welcome. I'll go grab you something to drink." Once he has Renee settled he moves to sit down on her other side. "How's the Ramen?"

"Really good." She smiles at him. "You're getting good. You aren't eating?"

"Not yet. Wanted to make sure you had everything you needed first." He rests his arm on the back of the couch behind her. "How's the head?"

"Getting better."

"Please tell me the bear will not be in our bed tonight."

"I make no promises."
