Chapter 13: The Talk

"You need to relax." Dean told me. We had the hotel room all to ourselves while the others were out at lunch. I wasn't hungry, and there was some new written law with the Winchesters that apparently stated "Annie is not allowed to be alone in the state of New Mexico". I was getting tired of this law to. I loved Dean and Gabi and Sam was like my brother and John was a great guy, but I didn't need a baby sitter.

"Really, and what do you suggest I do for that?" I replied. He came and sat next to me on the bed.

"Lay on your stomach." He ordered. I laughed.

"Getting a little demanding are we?" I said and did what he said. He started giving me a massage, and he was doing a good job. "Ok you can be demanding as long as you keep doing that."

"Ok no problem." He said laughing. "Annie, are you sure that this whole ghost thing is the only thing bothering you?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." I lied. Something still wasn't feeling right.

"Liar." Ok, I needed a boyfriend that couldn't read me so well.

"I just haven't felt very good that's all. Probably all the junk food and being on the road." I said. It must have been a good enough answer.

"Well, once we can get away from the group we can go out and get real food and walk instead of drive." He said. Then something came to my mind.

"Hey Dean, ever find it weird that we haven't ever been on a real date?" I asked, kind of amused by the whole thing.

"Huh, I never really thought about it. It is weird though." He told me. I nodded. It was weird, and I didn't like it. As cliché as it sounds, I did want to go out on a date with him.

"Well, I promise, sometime soon, we will go out on a date. A real one at that." Ok, so maybe having a boyfriend who could read me was a good thing. I smiled.

"With real credit cards or checks?" I joked.

"Well, I can't promise that." He replied. I laughed and sat up from my massage and kissed him lightly.

"You are the best." I told him. He smiled and kissed me this time.

"Yeah, I know." He replied. I laughed and pushed him back on to the bed. He laughed and pulled me down on top of him.

"You are so arrogant." I said laughing, with my face just inches from his. He pushed a piece of hair off my face and rested his hand on my cheek.

"Yes, but I distinctly remember you telling me that you wouldn't have me any other way." He pointed out.

"True." I said. Our eyes met for a brief seconds before our lips met. This time it wasn't quick, it was slow and passionate. God I had missed this while we were on the road.

The heat increased quickly, but we knew we had limits, considering we had no clue when the others would be back.

His hands moved up and down my back, and then one moved to my head. He started twirling my hair, and running his fingers through my hair. I loved it when he did that.

Some how, our position reversed, and now he was on top of me.

But we didn't have much more privacy.

(Sam's POV)

"Those movies are so dumb! I mean when you see the real thing, they just serve no purpose!" I exclaimed.

"But they are so much fun to watch! Especially if you are with the right person." Gabi said with that cute flirty tone. I couldn't help but blush a little; this girl had that affect on me, even with just words.

"Horror movies aren't even close to the real thing." I told her.

"Really? Well now I guess I get to see the real thing. Is it scarier or not?" She asked. I thought about it.

"Everything in Hollywood is over done as far as effects, but when you are right there, getting ready to be killed by a demon or ghost, then it is a lot scarier. But also, a much bigger thrill." I told her.

Ok so joking about my job wasn't something I normally did, but that was another thing Gabi did. She could unintentionally take something that was so serious and turn it into something fun and light hearted. She literally amazed me.

"Gabi I don't know what you have done, but I haven't heard Sam talk this much about something other then work and school in forever." My dad said. She smiled.

"Hey, bringing out the fun is just one of my rare unique qualities." She said sarcastically. But it was true.

"You know I don't get it, how do my sons always meet the beautiful woman on this job and I get nothing?" Dad stated. I just looked. Gabi laughed and blushed a little.

"Dad, I think Dean told you this before with Annie, but need I remind you to stop flirting." I said.

We talked for a little while longer then left the restaurant. Gabi's cell rang, so she was walking behind us on the phone.

"Sam, she is nice, and smart and pretty. But be careful." My dad said. And by the tone of his voice, I knew that was the end of the conversation, no matter how confused I was.

We got back to the Inn, and opened the door. Just as I expected, Dean and Annie were making out, pretty intensely.

"K guys were home so break it up." Gabi said loudly as she barged in the room.

Her personality was so huge. It could fill an entire room. I loved it, and her smile could light up an entire night.

Ok I was so getting in over my head. She acted like she liked me, and I knew I liked her, but it was just a whole timing thing.

Dean and Annie broke apart and Annie immediately began to recover.

"So when are we going to go get this thing?" She said quickly.

"When it gets dark, so we have an hour or so." Dad said. She nodded.

"Dean, can I talk to you?" Dad asked. Dean shrugged and they walked outside.

Annie gave me a questioning look and I shrugged.

(Dean's POV)

"How much do you care about this girl Dean?" Dad asked. I rolled my eyes.

"Dad, you know I love her." I stated.

"How much?" He said sternly. I didn't get this.

"I would die before I would let anything hurt her, and to be honest, I don't think I could ever live with out her, and I never want to." I said honestly. My dad took a deep breath. "Dad, what is going on?"

"Look, she is a great girl. But you need to be careful." He said. That didn't tell me much, but he wasn't done. "She is in the eye of a lot of speculation with these things, this supernatural stuff, and that means unless we kill this Enchantress then it is going to keep coming after her and you and anyone else that is with her. She may not mean to be, but the girl is dangerous."

I knew he was right, but I didn't want to hear it. So I just nodded slowly, walked back inside and slammed the door.

"Dean? Is everything ok?" Annie asked as soon as I walked in. Her face was written with more worry then usual, and this was for me. I tried to smile and little and I walked over and kissed her lightly on the cheek.

"I'm fine." I whispered. I don't know if she believed me or not, but she didn't look as worried.

I hated this. I hated it because I knew not to do this to myself. I promised myself never to fall in love, because it was to dangerous, because I was scared. Because of this very reason.

Right after I promised myself this I met her, she just walked… well crashed into my life unexpectedly, and now I didn't ever want her to leave.

She was in danger, so was I and every one else in the room with us at the moment. But I didn't care.

I loved her more then anything, and I was going to do anything to protect her.
