Amazon

Chapter 3

Reaching Lawrence at 5am it seemed sensible to find somewhere to stay and get settled in. Antonia was asleep in the back of the Impala when they pulled up outside the Rest Assured motel. Sam gently shook her awake and she climbed out and stretched.

At reception there was an awkward moment when the clerk asked how many rooms theyd like. Antonia asked if theyd mind booking 2, she felt it was rushing things to jump straight into sharing rooms with Dean, let alone jumping into his bed. Then there was Sam, she didnt want him to feel pushed out either. She wanted to get this right and felt it was better to take things slowly and see how things would work out.

The look Sam saw on Deans face though suggested he didnt agree with Antonias request. Poor bro Sam thought, he wasnt used to this at all.

They grabbed about 4 hours sleep and went for breakfast at a cosy looking cafe, all chintz and gingham and a friendly bell over the door. Sam said hed order while the others found a vacant table. As Dean and Antonia talked, they heard the bell and both looked up to see a woman enter the cafe. Most people did a double take. Not only was she stunning but she was huge! Noting the broadest shoulders hed ever seen on a woman, Dean and Antonia had a silent eyebrow conversation. Long, wavy red hair cascaded down her back and she had a buxom figure that had all the men in the cafe staring openly, Dean included so Antonia kicked his foot with a good humoured smirk. She approached the counter and stood next to Sam. You couldnt miss the fact that she was almost as tall as he was and Sam was 64".

Turning her head she appraised him from head to foot and asked in a husky voice "Anyone serving here today?"

Sam was held transfixed in her emerald green gaze. He had to mentally shake himself to answer her, and then he wasnt so sure it was coherant. There were many "erms" and "ums", he knew that much.

"Names Iona", she said next and licked her lips while still piercing Sams hazel eyes.

"Sam," he managed. He felt drugged. The minute she was at his side he ceased to think straight. All he could think of was how beautiful this woman was and how much he wanted her.

Dean watched the exchange with amusement.

"Whats taking so long Sammy boy?" he asked grinning. Iona turned at the sound of his voice and almost seduced Dean with her eyes. Jesus! Dean remembered thinking later. Iona then looked at Antonia, only this time the look was purely that reserved for predatory females sizing each other up. Antonia was wondering if she was delusional but she could have sworn she saw the womans eyes darken. There was still no service happening so Iona suddenly changed her plans.

"I have more important people to do", she said with a sly smirk. "See you around Sam." She swung her hair over her shoulders and swayed her leather clad hips as she left, giving Dean one more lascivious look that had Antonia seething inwardly. Sam joined them at last and Dean asked immediately "Whos the amazon woman dude?"

"Iona."

"And?"

"And what?"

Dean rolled his eyes. "Thats all you got? Her name?"

Sam thought about this. "Well...yeah..." It all seemed like a dream actually.

"Youre losing your touch bro, I did warn you that too much geek work would make Sammy a very dull boy."

"Dean!" laughed Antonia.

Sam shook his head and grinned "Whatever." He had to admit to himself though, she had rendered him utterly defenseless standing there, he couldnt think of anything but her, he was still thinking about her now, still seeing her in his mind. When shed said shed see him around he knew with a certainty that he would. Or hed find her.
