Chapter 6: The Answer

(Gabi's POV)

God I hated drama. Sam and I had decided to stay back at the bar, figuring that talking to them hadn't worked so maybe talking to each other would do more good. The worst that could happen was them killing each other. Which Sam and I considered a bonus at this point.

"Promise me we will never fight like that." Sam requested. I laughed.

"I don't think we will have that problem. Our relationship is totally different." I told him.

"Oh really, we are in love, so are they, what is the difference?" He asked. I shook my head.

"Well, have you ever seen The Notebook?" I asked. He shook his head.

"Can't say I have." He replied laughing. My jaw dropped.

"We are going to have to change that. But anyways, in the Notebook, the couple fights and fights and fights. But then they have this love that the fire never burns out of even when they are like a hundred. That is the kind of relationship Annie and Dean have, just because they are both so stubborn." I told him. "Us on the other hand, we have more of a… Tristan and Isolde thing mixed with Seth and Summer thing from The O.C."

I was rather happy with my analogies.

"Ok I have no idea what either of those are and you used to have way to much time on your hands." He said. I rolled my eyes.

"Well, Tristan and Isolde are basically like Romeo and Juliet, except only Tristan dies, but they never argue and just have this sweet and beautiful romance. Then Seth and Summer, ok they argue, but they are fun and never boring and really care about each other. I think that pretty much sums it up. So if we mix those relationships together, we get… drum roll please…" He was laughing really hard. "Gabi and Sam." I said beaming.

He leaned over and kissed me. "We are so getting you out more often."

"Fine by me as long as I'm with you." I told him before we kissed again.

It kind of turned into a make out session, and we got sprayed with the water thing by the bartender. We were both laughing so hard.

"So, how about we move this somewhere else?" I suggested.

"Lead the way." He replied.

"Trust me, I will." I said as I grabbed his hand and headed to the door.

"Wait… we can't go back to the hotel." I told him.

"Why not?" He asked as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Because I have a feeling we are going to walk in on something we don't want to see. Now whether it is murder or sex, I don't know. But I don't want to take either chance." I said. He laughed again. I loved that I constantly entertained him. It made me smile.

"Then where do we go?" He asked. I thought about it.

"Did you guys drive?" I asked. He nodded and then pulled out the keys to the Impala. I smiled and we drove back to the hotel, but stayed in the car.

----------

Dean just stared at me, his eyes wide in something that I couldn't tell between shock or horror.

"Shit," I whispered and stood up.

"Wait, wait…" He said quickly. "What was that?"

"Look it is just…. See…" Now I had to tell him. "Ok so back in Wisconsin I had this dream and it was more like a calling kind of thing and my dad was in it. My real dad, the one I have never met. And he told me that now that I had all of these powers that evil would be chasing after us trying to get me to join them and would do whatever it took. Which meant it put yours and Gabi's and Sam's life in danger. But he said there was one way to secure specifically your safety and that was by an unbreakable bonding."

I took a deep breath and went on. "Sam had the same dream, but in a vision form. So we pretty much shared the dream and I didn't know what to do so then we figured that the unbreakable bond that he was talking about had to be marriage because one, he was talking about you, and two it is something that is scared and good. Evil can't mess with it, or more directly me and you because we would be protected."

He took it all in. "So you are only asking me this to save my life? Not because you want to?" I couldn't tell if he was hurt or just trying to understand it all.

"Well, yes… and no… I love you, a lot and I would love to marry you someday. But it is so soon! We have been dating for like three months and I am only twenty three and you are twenty six and…." I stopped. He laughed at my randomness.

"And what?" He asked.

"And I don't want to have some stop by ceremony at a cheesy neon lighted wedding chapel at some casino that we happen to drive by. I want it to be special." I told him quietly. He smiled softly and pulled me back into his arms.

"I love you Annie." He whispered into my hair.

"Really?" I asked. Even though my emotions had over come my alcohol influence a little bit it was still there.

"Yes really." He said laughing.

"Then I love you too." I said.

"And I have a question to ask you." He said as he pulled away.

"Ask away." I said. My tears were gone, now my face was just stained. He walked over to his bag and pulled out a small box. He handed it to me.

"This isn't really a question." I told him. He laughed.

"Just open it…" He said. I did, and it was empty. I looked at him and gave him an 'Are you an idiot' look. "Oh yeah, what did I do with that…"

"With what?" I asked. This wasn't a fun game. He dug through his jean pockets and then found it.

"With this…" He said, pulling out a silver ring with a small diamond in it. It was simple, and it was fine. "I think I know the question I am asking now."

I smiled widely.

"But I asked you first…" I joked.

"I'll say yes if you do." He replied. Instead of talking I pressed my lips hard against his.

"Is that enough of an answer for you?" I asked. "Or do I need to do more convincing?"

He slipped the ring onto my finger.

"I may need some more convincing, what about you?" He whispered.

"Maybe a little more…" Then we kissed again and took advantage of the alone time we had in the room.

----------

Dean and I didn't sleep. We stayed up and talked, and kissed, among other things for the entire night.

And it was one of the best nights ever. I had missed him so much and it felt good being in his arms again. One thing we had noticed though was that Sam and Gabi had never come back.

"Knowing Gabi they probably have your car and are out doing something that you don't want to know about in it." I told him. He cringed.

"Man that is my car…" He said. I laughed and kissed his neck.

"Yeah, but would you rather go hunt them down or stay here with me and never ever get out of bed again?" I asked as I laid my head on his shoulder.

"Is that the 'crazy about Dean' part of you or the 'I have a hangover and just want to sleep forever' part?" He said, being arrogant.

"A little of both." I said honestly. My head did hurt and my eyes were blurry. He laughed and pulled me tighter against him.

"Let's get a little bit of sleep then. I am sure we don't have to worry about them I can normally tell if Sam is in trouble." He told me. I nodded.

"Same with me and Gabi." I whispered. He kissed the top of my head.

"Then close your eyes and sleep, and I will wake you up in a little while." He said softly. And I did so. I was asleep in minutes.

(Gabi's POV)

I peeked in the window of our room and saw Dean and Annie lying together and holding each other.

"Yes! Mission accomplished. We did a good job Sam." I told him. He just laughed.

"Yes we did." He said pulling me closer and kissing me. I pulled back laughing.

"Not with that, well with that to, but with Dean and Annie. They made up!" I exclaimed.

"That's what I was talking about to! But as for the other thing, I think I may need a reminder about how we did at that." He said leaning in to kiss me again. I burst into laughter.

"You are just as bad as your brother did you know that?" I questioned. His eyes widened.

"Ok, then I will shut up now." He said. We were both laughing our heads off.

"Shh.." I told him as I unlocked the door. We tip toed into the room. I was barefoot and sat my heals down quietly on the floor.

We silently climbed into the other bed and closed our eyes.

I was never so happy to be in a hotel bed in my entire life. That car may have been cool. But it was not very comfortable and my back hurt.

"Note to us Sam, next time Dean and Annie need alone time, they have to take the car." I whispered before falling asleep.
