Chapter 8: Deviled Eggs and Good News
[Dean]
Dean sat in the living room the next day alone. He knew that just because the tumor was dormant didn't mean he was going to die, but he still felt hopeless. Lorelai had asked Rory to help her with this wedding at the Dragon Fly Inn, so she would be out for the afternoon.
He needed to do something to get the fear and tension out of his system, but he didn't know what to do. The sound of the door shutting interrupted his thoughts and Rory came into the living room holding a huge container.
"Have you been like this all day?" she asked.
"When you left I was in my pajamas," Dean said. "Now, I'm wearing jeans and a t-shirt. So, no I haven't been like this the whole day. What's in that container?"
"Leftover deviled eggs from the wedding," Rory replied. "Sookie wanted me to take the deviled eggs."
Dean sighed and stretched out on the couch. Rory pushed his legs off the couch and sat next to him.
"What do I have to do to get you off the couch?" Rory asked.
"I don't know," Dean said. "Get the tumor out of my head."
"I'm not a neurosurgeon."
"Well, I've been feeling a lot of aggression in the past 24 hours. I just need to do something to get it out."
Rory sighed. Then she looked down at the container of deviled eggs and a sly smile spread across her face.
"What?" Dean said.
"Get the keys," Rory said.
Dean got up and got the keys and followed her out the door. Rory directed him to the Dragon Fly Inn. The wedding was still going on. They took a look at the parking lot. Rory found an ugly looking car and stood next to it.
"Who's car is that?" Dean asked.
"I don't know, but it's pretty ugly," Rory said. "We're going to devil egg the car."
"Devil egg the car?" Dean repeated.
"Yeah."
"Okay, the only time you did this was when you were crushing on Jess and your mother was jealous of Sherry. Are you crushing on whoever owns this car?"
Rory nudged him and took off the top of the container and took out an egg and threw it at the car. It splattered all over the windshield.
"Okay, now you throw," Rory said.
Dean took an egg and threw it at the car. Then Rory joined him and they started throwing more eggs. He felt stupid at first, but then he started getting into this and started having fun.
"This is fun," he said. "We should devil-egg more cars."
"Oh, my god," Rory said. "Someone's coming!"
"Really?" Dean started panicking.
"No," Rory said. "But, it's fun to say that."
Dean sighed in relief as he threw the last egg at the car.
"Empty," he said, gesturing.
"I think I hear a siren!" Rory exclaimed.
"RUN!"
Rory and Dean ran towards the car, pretending that the police were chasing them.
"Okay," Rory said. "You make the siren noise and I'll make the car noises."
Dean and Rory imitated the sirens and car noises and drove all the way home. Dean finally felt like he got the aggression out of his system.
"That was fun," Dean said, once they got inside. "We should do that again."
"Besides the last time, this is just a one time thing," Rory said. "I've deviled egged my last car, thank you very much."

One Month Later.....
Rory and Dean sat in Dr. Thomas's office. For the past month they forgot about the tumor until they remembered the scheduled appointment. Rory knew it took a lot of courage for Dean to come back after his striking performance from the last time. Dr. Thomas came into the office holding the X-rays. Rory held her breath as he took out the X-rays.
"You're holding your own," Dr. Thomas said. "The tumor is dormant. If you continue to feel good, I'll see you in three months."
"Really?" Dean's face lit up.
"Yes," Dr. Thomas said.
"Thank you," Dean said.
Rory felt like she needed to do a cartwheel down the hallway of the hospital.
"Yeah, baby!" Dean yelled, doing a Matthew Perry impression and making Rory laugh.
"I told you you weren't going to die," Rory said.
"I knew that," Dean said.
"Liar," Rory said.
To Be Continued....
A/N: I know it's boring, but it's going to get better. Remember, I'm trying to stretch it out.
