DISCLAIMER
Life With Derek belongs to Disney. Supernatural belongs to the WB.
Meanwhile, George, Nora, Lizzie, Edwin, and Marti were waiting for the others to return.
"Where are they?" George wondered.
"George, it takes time to get rid of a ghost. Just be patient," Nora said. No sooner had she said this, did they hear a car engine.
"Well, finally!" George exclaimed. The door opened and Casey, Derek, Sam, and Dean trooped in.
"Tough hunt?" Nora asked.
"No more than usual," Casey answered. "We saw the ghost, Sam and Dean found the bones, and then salted and torched his butt," she continued.
"Pretty much," the older boys confirmed. Casey yawned.
"I'm going to bed. I'm tired," she stated.
"But it's like, way early," Lizzie protested.
"Lizzie, these past couple of days have been pretty exciting and I'm exhausted," Casey responded. Then, she went upstairs. Sam and Dean stared at each other. That wasn't like Casey.
"Aunt Nora, is she all right?" Dean queried.
"I think she might still be having her nightmares," Nora told them.
"Oh. Gotcha," Sam said in understanding.
"You know, if she's still having bad dreams, maybe she should see somebody," George suggested.
"No. Her nightmares will fade. And in the meantime, she's got us," Sam disagreed.
"Besides, there's nothing a psychiatrist could do," Dean added.
"They're right," Nora agreed. George didn't say anything, but didn't look convinced. Sam and Dean went into their bedroom, changed into pajamas, and went to bed, where for once, both fell into deep sleeps.
