Hey guys :) This is a pretty long one. Thank you all for your support and everything. Someone asked for Jack to be turned into a kid, I'm not sure when I'm going to write that, but I have plans too XD. It will depend on how fluffy I feel tonight when I write. I hope you guys like this. Enjoy -Lola
"Jack, it's time to get off the computer." Sam called from the kitchen, he was in the middle of making a salad to go with their chicken for dinner.
Jack had been on that computer all day for the past two weeks and Sam couldn't understand why. Dean said it was probably a girl, and Cas just didn't understand human emotions. Sam didn't care if it was a girl, all that blue light was not good for his son. Dean wanted to pry and see if it was actually a girl, but Sam wouldn't let him. Sam, even though he hated him being on the computer all day, was going to respect Jack's privacy. He didn't get any of that when he was a kid, so he hoped maybe giving Jack that privacy would do the kid some good.
"Five more minutes," Jack called from his place in the middle of the Bunker. He grinned as he sent Rose another email. They were going to meet tonight like they did nearly every night. Jack had gotten really good at sneaking out of the Bunker and making sure his trained hunter parents didn't know.
Jack knew they wouldn't approve of him getting a girlfriend, a one-night stand? Maybe, but not a girlfriend. A girlfriend requires commitment and commitment meant putting Rose in danger. Jack didn't really think Rose was in any danger, but he knew his fathers would disagree. Sam lost the woman he loved to a demon who burned her on the ceiling all because she knew Sam. Jack thought that could never happen to him, he was protected too well. No one would mess with anyone in the Winchester family.
"Now, Jack." Sam called from the kitchen as he finished up the salad. "Dinner is happening, and you know how Dean gets when he's hungry." Sam called with a teasing smile.
Jack sighed shutting down his computer and standing up. He walked into the kitchen where Dean was already at the table tapping his foot impatiently as Sam put down the salad and chicken on the table. Cas was on some mission for the angels, so it was just Jack, Sam, and Dean for dinner tonight.
Dean reached for the chicken grabbing two whole breasts. "Dean," Sam said shaking his head at his brother. "Leave some for the rest of us."
Dean snorted as he began to cut his chicken quickly. "You don't even eat chicken," Dean said gesturing to Sam's full plate of green, leafy, salad. "You eat that organic, tree hugger, crap."
"Yes," Sam said looking at Jack who seemed to be in another place. He seemed to just be in a daydream. "But Jack eats chicken. Jack," Sam said snapping his fingers in Jack's direction.
Jack jumped and shook his head as he took a piece of chicken and a little salad. "Sorry, was thinking about something." Jack said shaking his head as he began to cut up his meat.
Dean snorted with a smirk of amusement. He took a swig of his beer managing to keep that smug smirk on his face the whole time. "About a girl?" He asked him with a grin.
"No," Jack said a little too quickly, his cheeks burning red. He had been thinking about Rose truthfully and what they were going to do tonight. "I was thinking about…Algebraic Proofs." Jack blurted looking over at Sam, he didn't look like he was buying it.
"Sure kid," Dean said dryly. "Now cut the crap, what's she like? Is she hot? How far have you gone?" Dean was all about the important parts of the relationship. He was always very forward when he saw someone he liked.
"Dean," Sam scolded him with a bitch faced scowl. "Not appropriate for dinner, and Jack doesn't have to tell you anything about the girl if he doesn't want to." Sam admonished but then turned to Jack. "We would like to know though, if you want to share."
Dean muttered something under his breath about Sam guilt tripping him. Jack tended to agree with Dean about this one, Sam wasn't exactly pushing but Jack knew he was expected to talk about it. "Her name is Rose," Jack informed them with a shrug. "She's very pretty and we talk at Dairy Queen. She's in my friend group."
Jack decided keeping thing vague were the best way to go, Sam and Dean didn't need to know about Rose. He hadn't done anything with Rose, he had held her but that was it. The only time they have ever kissed was when Rose kissed his cheek. The two of them just enjoyed each other's company and liked to talk about the world. Jack could never let himself get to lost in the moment because he could let something slip. If he let something slip, Rose would think he was a freak. He didn't want her to think that.
Sam and Dean bombarred him with questions but they got very little out of him. Finally, after a few hours of trying to avoid his fathers they went to bed. As soon as they went to bed, Jack was up and out the door toward the secret exit in the Bunker that he had found by mistake. It came in handy though, for times like these, when he needed to get out and go somewhere undetected.
Jack grinned as the fresh air of the Kansas night hit his face. He loved nights like these, mainly because of Rose. He went jogging towards their meeting spot hoping that he would get there on time for once. For some reason unknown to Rose, Jack was always late getting to the park. Jack couldn't help it though, he had to wait for Sam and Dean to be in their rooms before he could escape.
Jack came jogging up to the usual park bench spot where Rose was already sitting. "Hey Jack," Rose called out with a grin. "I beat you here, again."
"Sorry," Jack laughed sheepishly, he didn't know how to come up with an excuse. He couldn't exactly say 'I had to wait for Sam and Dean to go to sleep in our secure Bunker with monster killing equipment inside'. "Sam and Dean needed something."
"Oh," Rose said with a shrug reaching for his hand. "You're here now, that's all that matters." She said with a grin as she began to lead him over to the pond a little ways away from their meeting place. She had set up a picnic blanket for them to lay on to watch the stars.
Jack followed her over to the blanket and laid down with her beside him. She laid her head on his chest as they looked up at the stars. "This is very nice," Jack informed her as he looked up at the sky. They were in a small town, so they could see the stars and it was nice to think he was seeing the same stars Cas was seeing even if he wasn't in Kansas right now.
"I'm glad you like it," Rose said with a smile looking up at Jack. Her hazel eyes were watching his movements very carefully.
"Rose," Jack said gently as he moved a piece of her hair out of her face. "I think you're the most beautiful girl I have ever seen." Jack told her, and Rose smiled up at him with a shake of her head.
"Don't get all touchy feely on me now, Winchester." She teased him lightly. "But thank you." Rose didn't see what Jack saw. She knew she was pretty but beautiful? The beautiful Jack saw? Rose wasn't so sure.
Jack grinned down at her in amusement, she reminded him of the most important people in his life. That's probably what drew him to her. "Can I…can I kiss you?" Jack asked her gently.
Rose leaned up, so their foreheads were nearly touching. She looked into his blue eyes that were filled with inexperience. Rose had had a lot of experience with kissing and other things, but that did not mean that Jack wouldn't be good at it. She just knew what to do and a first kiss was always the hardest one because it was so awkward. The butterflies would be fluttering so hard in your chest that they wouldn't stop, and your heart would pump faster as you prepared to be close to someone who was not your parent.
"Yes," Rose breathed out, waiting for Jack to place his lips on hers.
Jack leaned in closer to her, so he could connect their lips. She smelt like something sweet like peaches with honey. It was a weird combo, but he had peaches and honey when they went to Georgia for a hunt and he remembered laughing as he ate the peaches drenched in honey at a picnic table. Dean had been drinking a beer at the time with Sam while Cas was sitting in a tree, the angel had been into being up high lately, but Jack couldn't blame him, the tree was very nice. He wasn't allowed up in trees though since he had broken a lot of his bones one time.
Jack put his lips on her gently, he was very unsure of himself since he had never done this before. He let Rose guide his hands up to her waist and he let Rose take control of the kiss. Rose kept the kiss sweet, but she also was hungry for more. Jack was a puzzle that drew her in so easily and no one ever made her feel so electrified before.
Jack knew he should have gone back once the clock turned to four am, but he didn't want to leave Rose. They would kiss off and on during the night and slowly turned into making out. He knew he wasn't ready to have sex, but he did like making out with Rose. She was very good at it and helped guide him through. He had never felt this way before. He had never felt so close and connected to someone in a non-parental way.
Jack sighed when the clock read four-thirty, he had to get back before Sam woke up. Sam was always the first one up and he got up at five. At this rate, he would have to run home. He smiled at Rose, they had all the time in the world. They could take this slow and make it last. Jack knew his Dads wouldn't like it because it was dangerous, but Jack didn't care. He could make his own choices no matter what anyone else says.
Rose stood up with Jack, she pressed a quick peck to his lips. "See you tomorrow," she whispered as she turned and headed the opposite direction of the Bunker.
"See you tomorrow," Jack echoed watching her go in awe. This had to be one of the best nights of his life.
Jack jogged home at a steady pace, he didn't want Sam to wake before he got there. He got around to the Bunker's secret exit and pushed through as quietly as he could. He began to walk to his room in quick, but quiet steps. He held his breath as he passed Sam's room and let it out when he passed Dean's since Dean was snoring. He made his way into his room and shut the door quietly.
Jack got dressed for bed, he had training in five hours and there was no way he would get enough rest, but he thought it was worth it. Tonight, was the best thing that had happened to him in this small Kansas town. He didn't feel so alone anymore. He knew if he told Dean, he would be proud he kissed her but then he would ask if he went all the way. Winchesters didn't get attached to people outside the family and in the Supernatural world. A week to a two-week fling was the only thing Jack had seen or knew. He knew the risks, but did they outweigh the reward? Jack wasn't so sure.
Jack laid on his bed with the lights off as he looked up at the ceiling. He wondered what his Mom would say. He wondered if she would encourage him to keep it a secret or to tell his Dads how serious things were getting. He had told Rose that they had to meet at night because his parents were strict and didn't like him dating, but that wasn't the truth. Well, it was the truth but with a few key details left out. He couldn't help but wonder if he was being selfish by wanting to have a relationship when he knew he was dangerous.
Everyone around him and the Winchesters got hurt. Sam and Dean told him it was because they were cursed, and duty bound, but Jack wasn't so sure. Jack thought it was because they loved each other so much that they put themselves over others in personal relationships. The Winchesters had drilled in Jack's skull that family comes first. You are nothing without family, but Jack also knew that family doesn't end with blood, the Winchesters had also taught him that.
So, what if Rose became his family? He could see her with a gun helping with the family business, but he wasn't sure if he wanted to see that. Rose was a normal girl who liked to draw supernatural creatures but that didn't mean she wanted to meet one. It didn't mean she wanted to have to salt and burn graves or kill ghouls with a shot to the head. Was it right of Jack to steal that innocence from her? He didn't know, but someone had once told him that ignorance is bliss, and he was starting to agree when he saw the lives of his friends. He would do anything to be like his friend group sometimes, but then he remembered they didn't have the bond he had with his family. They didn't have the close-knit relationship that many people dream of having. So maybe ignorance is bliss, but for Jack, he would rather have his family and be aware of the supernatural world than be ignorant to the supernatural world and not have his family.
