Chapter 55
Dean pulled the car into the parking lot of a small diner, as he switched off the engine, e turned in his seat
"think we should wake them up?" Dean asked
I smiled and lent forwards kissing his lips softly
"it's not like we can do anything here, we're in the car, at a diner" I whispered
he kissed my lips again and stroked the back of his fingers down my neck
"alright then" He mumbled
He turned in his seat
"rise and shine Sammy, grubs up" Dean said
I laughed and climbed out of the impala. I shut the door and lent on the impala, Dean joined me and pressed himself against me, wrapping his arms around me
"how's the shoulder feeling at the moment?" He asked
"feels fine, think I might be lucky enough to not have a huge dressing on it tomorrow night?" I asked
"well, we'll see how it looks shall we" he replied, kissing my neck
Sammy and Carmen climbed out of the car
"hey Sammy, do you think you would mind driving the rest of the way after lunch?" I asked
Sam looked at Dean, then nodded
"sure" he replied
I tapped Dean's chest and smiled up at him,
"come on, lets get lunch" I smiled
we walked into the diner and sat in a booth in the corner, next to a large window over looking the parking lot.

"hey, what can I get you guys?" A young red haired girl asked, smiling at us all
"ermmmm... can I have a Ham Salad sandwich and a coke please" Carmen replied
"Can you make that 2" Sammy smiled
The girl nodded and wrote it on her notepad
"What do you want baby?" Dean asked me
"err.. I think I'll have the Chicken Salad Wrap thanks" I said to him and the waitress
she wrote it down
"that comes with corn chips" She smiled
"that's fine thanks" I replied
"and how about you" she said to Dean
"I'll have the same thanks" He smiled
"and to drink?" she asked
"2 cokes" Dean replied
She jotted it all down and walked away
"ok, so guys I was think, so we've got plenty of time to prepare for..." I couldn't finish the last of that sentence
"well...anyway, I thought, maybe I could ring Marion, she owns the formal wear shop, and arrange for us to see her tonight when we arrive, she might be ok with staying open alittle late for us... so tomorrow is left to plan for... well you know, before we go to my fathers party" I said
Dean wrapped his arm around my shoulder and held me tight
"sounds like a plan" he smiled
"yeah, just as long as I phone her before she closes at 4.30" I said
I rested my head on his shoulder, and reached my hand to hold the one of his that rested on my shoulder
"love you" he whispered, then kissed the top of my head
I looked up at him and smiled
"love you too".
Dean sat back having finished his lunch, his hand gently stroked up and down my back. I picked up a corn chip and fed it to him, kissing him when he finished it. He smiled at me and wrapped his arm around me, pulling me close and kissed me again.
"hmmm.. remind me to share more corn chips with you in the future" I said smiling
Dean laughed and wrapped his other arm around me, and pulled me closer
"trust me, it's not the corn chips doing this to me" he mumbled against my neck, as he pressed his lips against my skin, sending a tingle of heat surge through me
"can I at least finish my lunch" I smiled, laying my arms on top of his.
He presses another kiss to my neck, then lets me go
"thank you" I smiled and kissed his cheek
I turn to face the table and continue to eat my corn chips, then taking a sip of my coke. I pushed my plate towards Dean and offered him the last of the corn chips, sitting back in the crook of his arm and snuggling against his chest.
His hand rests on my hip and he kisses the top of my head.
"you ready to hit the road again?" Dean asked
I looked up at him, then nodded
"i think so, as ready as i'm gonna get" I said, looking at him with a worried expression
his grip tightened around me and he kissed my forehead
"not going down without a fight" he whispered, reassuring me still. But the feeling in the pit of my stomach, still gnawing away

I sat in the back seat with Dean, his arm over my shoulders, as I snuggled into his chest, his fingers absent-mindedly stroking the top of my arm, I buried my head into his chest and breathed him in, smiling as he kissed the top of my head. I stoked my hand across his chest, down his stomach, feeling his toned form under my fingertips, then slowly, I stroked up, following my hand, as I continued to stroke up, his neck, his cheek, then gently pulling him down till our lips met. He smiled against my lips
"I really do love you" I whispered
Dean smiled and stroked his fingers down my neck
"love you too" he whispered back, pressing another kiss to my lips
our lips parted and I rested my head on his chest again, feeling his chest rise and fall as he breathed, my eyes began to grow heavy, and I felt myself drifting off to sleep

"Hey, Beth, baby, time to wake up" Dean said softly, stroking my cheek and lifting my chin,
I opened my eyes and smiled as I saw his eyes gazing back into mine
"time to make that phone call" He smiled
I grabbed his wrist and turned it, to look at the watch around his wrist, then sat up
"mm... your right" I replied
I lifted up slightly and reached in my pocket for my mobile, Deans lips pressed to my neck, I smiled and as he pulled away I kissed him softly, then dialled the number of Marions and held the phone to me ear.
"Hello, Marions Formal wear" a familiar voice answered
"Marion, it's Beth" I said
there was a slight squeal down the phone
"Beth, honey, how are you?" she replied
"i'm fantastic, look, I was wondering if I could ask you a favour, I'm coming back to town, for my dad's birthday party, and well, i'm still on the road, and have plans tomorrow, I was wondering if I could possibly been a pain and ask you stay around, we'll be maybe 45 minutes, is that ok?" I asked
"Beth, hun, I'll do amything for you, of course, by we you mean? She asked sounding curious
"yeah, 4 of us to be precise" I replied
"and would one of these 4 be a date, perhaps the guy Glyn keeps saying had led you astray?" Marion asks
"that's probably how she'd describe him, anyway, I better go, thanks Marion, I'll see you soon" I said, she hung up, as did I.
I turned to face Dean, placing my hand on his chest
"All sorted, if we head straight there as soon as we hit the town, she'll be there waiting for us" I said, smiling up at Dean, but talking to everyone in the car
"sounds great baby" Dean replied
"and then, after we're done there, and had some dinner, we can head off to a motel together and not come out till the morning" I whispered to Dean
"ummm... I really like the sound of that" Dean whispered
"thought you would" I whispered back, stroking my hand up his chest, to his neck as I reached and kissed him tenderly
Dean and I continued to quietly kiss for a while in the back seat, his hands stroking my waist, my thigh, then back up till he cupped my cheek
