I put off writing this for as long as possible just because I haven't wanted this to end. This chapter is going to be long…

But before I begin I want to thank a couple of people…

Chapter 16: The End

I had called my doctor after I talked to Dean and within the next day everything was taken care of. Neither of us was happy about it… but what else could we do?

But I wasn't going to let that ruin today for us. It was Dean's birthday and I had promised him something amazing. After everything we had been through and all he had done for me, he deserved it. Things were shaky with us right now though. Not shaky in a fighting way, but he was once again scared to touch me. Just like last time. I didn't want him to be. He was blaming this thing on himself, when if it was anybodies fault, it was mine. I should have taken better care of myself and this wouldn't have happened. But if we had learned anything through out our time together, it should have been not to dwell on the past. For some reason we had a hard time abiding by that rule…

--

When morning rolled around, I was the first to wake up. I looked over at Dean and smiled at him as he slept. But it was time for him to wake up.

I reached over and kissed him on the neck and trailed the kisses up to his earlobe. I heard him sigh and laugh a little.

"I wish it was my birthday every day…" He mumbled sleepily. I pulled back and smiled.

"Then it would never be my birthday… and that wouldn't be any fun." I teased. He smiled back and me and drew back a strand of hair that had fallen into my eyes.

"Are you ok today?" He asked tentatively. I rolled my eyes and laughed some.

"I'm fine and I don't want to talk about it, at least not today. All I want to do is… well whatever you want to do because it's your birthday and you get to pick." I told him.

"You know sometime we will have to talk about it…" He said.

"But that isn't today. I'm not going to ruin this." I said sternly and honestly. Dean looked at me. His eyes still had this sadness that I couldn't quiet pin point, it had been there since I had told him about the baby. But I was trying so hard to make it go away. I guess it wasn't hard enough.

He rolled over onto his back and shut his eyes. I took a deep breath and got out of bed.

"K then, Umm, I am going to get ready for the day. You can sleep or whatever… I guess…" I said slowly and a little sadly. I heard him let out a deep breath and he caught me before I went into the bathroom.

"Annie… wait…" He said as he stood up. I turned around and forced a smile. "It's just hard… I don't want to hurt you and this whole situation isn't easy."

I closed my eyes and took off the fake smile.

"I know it isn't easy. God, I know way more then you how unfair and how hard this is. I am the one actually going through it. You just have to stand and watch!" I said, letting my buried temper get the best of me. "But I am trying. Because there isn't a damn thing either of us can do about so there is no point in crying about it. We just have to get on with our lives and accept it."

My chin was quivering and the tears burned in my eyes. But I clenched it together and stared at him. Instead of getting angry back, he tightly pulled me into his arms and wouldn't let go. I gladly accepted. But I still pushed the tears away and wouldn't cry. Not again.

"If you ever let go of me I will kill you…" I joked. He laughed a little and pulled back before kissing me with more passion and heat then he had in days.

I didn't want it to stop, so I simply didn't let it until we had to.

"I'm sorry." He told me simply. And that was enough.

"No problem… now let's just have today… please? I still have a surprise for you.." I said smiling.

"I can't wait to get it." He replied.

-----

(Gabi's POV)

"Sam you have to…" I told him.

"No… Gabi we can't do this. I mean, I don't know I just don't trust her." He said. I laughed at him.

"She has been living next door to us for the past two years; her mother is going to be right there. We can let her baby sit for us." I said. I swear this guy…

"But she is only what like fifteen? That is really young…" He told me. This time I laughed harder.

"The first time I baby sat I was like thirteen; she has a two year head start on me and she is very responsible and like I said, her mother will be right next door." Convincing Sam to leave Ellie with anyone other then us or Annie was a full time job. And I wanted to quit.

"Do we have to?" He complained.

"Grow up babe! Plus it is your brothers birthday. He might be just a little bit pissed off if you don't hang out with him. Plus, it has been a long, long time since the four of us hung out together. We need this… I don't want to be stuck in the house anymore. I can't believe you do either." I said.

"I just don't want anything to happen to her…" He said honestly. I reached up and kissed him.

"Don't worry, please. It will be fine." I said softly. I heard him sigh which meant surrender.

I was getting good at this.

"Fine…" He replied. I smiled at him.

"I knew you would come around."

----

(Annie's POV)

Dean's birthday was great. The four of us went out and hung out like we used to. (With out the paranormal) And Dean actually got used to the idea of being twenty nine.

And I got him over the fear of touching me. I think later that night we were both able to forget about the events of the past few days and finally be us again.

But now it was a few days later. And we had bigger problems.

----

"Are you serious?" I asked Dean. Truth be told I was excited.

"Yep, those Wendigo leads were relevant. We need to head out for Missouri tomorrow. They are in the mountains somewhere up there." He said.

"Yes! Finally I get to kill something…" I said quietly. He laughed at me.

"You know that attitude right there, it scares me a little." He joked.

"Yeah well I have a lot of anger built up and killing some evil creature will be just the ticket to get it out." I said smiling. "So is it just us? Or are Sam and Gabi along for the ride?"

Dean laughed.

"It would be easier with the four of us, but getting Sam to leave Ellie again is going to be a job all on it's own." He said. I shrugged.

"We could drug him then when he passed out we could throw him in the car and head off. Then he wouldn't have a choice. Ellie would be safe with John, we would kill the Wendigo… Sam may hate us forever but hey, it all works." I joked.

"Sometimes I wonder if you are evil." He teased. I smiled.

"I bet you would like to know wouldn't you?" I questioned. He just laughed and pulled me close to him.

"Think we can get the four of us on the road again? At least for one last time?" He asked.

"Yeah. I think so." I said.

And it worked. Well, Gabi made it work. She told Sam that she was going with us even if he wasn't. Of course he flipped out and wouldn't let that happen so now we were all crammed in the Impala again, eating junk food and listening to Dean's classic rock.

"Dean, do we have the flame guns?" Sam asked.

"Dude do you honestly think I would have gone this far with out them?" Dean replied.

"Come on college boy, it is the only way to kill these things. I thought you were supposed to be the smart one."

Gabi and I laughed. A couple hours later, Sam and Gabi had once again fallen asleep in a cuddled up position and looked completely comfortable.

"Are we almost there?" I whined. I wanted to check into the motel and sleep for like a week in an actual bed, not these seats.

"Yeah, about another hour." Dean replied. I sighed and looked at the back seat.

"I hate them." I said sarcastically. "They look peaceful, comfortable, everything I want to be right now. But no, I'm just whiny and tired and my entire body feels stiff."

Dean laughed at me.

"Baby, go to sleep, or try to. I promise you will feel better." He said as he started to twirl my hair in his fingers. That always made me relax

"Ok… I will try…" I said as I closed my eyes. I leaned my head against the seat and Dean reached over and kissed me on the cheek before I drifted off.

-----

"Why do evil monsters have to be in the woods? Why can't the like hide in a basement in the city or something?" Gabi complained as we trudged our way through the mountains. None of us were good at this, but we had to find the cave and kill these things.

"We will probably be there soon, but we have to stay together." Sam told her. She sighed and we all kept walking.

It got dark and we still found nothing.

"Does this mean what I think it means?" I asked.

"Yep, we have to camp out. Let's find a spot and surround it with salt." Dean said. We did exactly that.

It was freezing outside, and I hadn't packed anything to warm. We had a fire and all, but the only blanket I had was thin and my jeans and hooded sweatshirt weren't doing much for me. At this point I was shivering.

"You okay babe?" Dean asked. I nodded.

"I'm just freezing." I said smiling. He smirked, sat down next to me and pulled me to him.

"Any better?" He asked. I shrugged.

"I wish I could say yes, but only a little." I told him as I buried my head into his chest.

"Ok come on then…" He said as he lifted me off of the ground. He carried me over to his sleeping bag, and we both got in it. We were so close and couldn't move, the body heat and the blankets were starting to help.

"Now this is better…" I said quietly as I snuggled into him. He wrapped his arms even tighter around me and kissed my forehead.

"Let's sleep." He said. I nodded and did just that.

----

"I think I found something!" Gabi yelled. We went over to where she was. She was right. There was a cave opening right below her.

"Let's go." Dean said. We all silently climbed in until we reached the bottom. All of us stayed as quiet as possible. Then it came out.

These things were scary! They were like eight feet tall and all squishy and peeled looking. Eww… Now I remembered why I never liked these things.

We shot one, and that must have triggered the rest. There were two more and they came at us. One was easy to kill. But these things were smart and fast.

They came towards us and we started backing away.

"Any one want to shoot?" I asked. Dean held up one of the guns and pulled the trigger. Nothing happened.

"Shit… it isn't working…" He said as he kept trying to pull the trigger. The Wendigo's were getting closer. In panic, I grabbed the gun out of Dean's hands, shook it up and shot.

It blew the flames out and at the creatures one by one. With in five minutes we were safe again.

"Let's go." I said as I shoved the gun back in Dean's hands. I started climbing up the cave walls. Since I was the smallest it was easy to get out.

"You amaze me you know that?" Dean said as he draped his arm around my shoulders.

"I amaze myself." I joked smiling.

In a couple of hours we were back at the car and headed home.

It had been pretty easy, but it would be our last fight together. Luckily no one was hurt.

-----

(2 Years later)

"This isn't normal." I said as I dug through my closet.

"Is anything in our lives ever normal?" Dean asked as he laughed.

"Your kid must be extremely fat." I grunted out as I found the shirt I wanted.

"Annie, you are having a baby, this is supposed to happen." He said, still laughing. I shot him a death glare.

"After two in a half months, women's stomachs normally don't have this yet!" I said as I pointed to the bump that was forming on me. "That normally happens in month four."

I wasn't happy about this at all. If this kid was already this big then having it was going to be a bitch. But I had dealt with worse before.

"When do you go to the doctor again?" He asked.

"Umm, today maybe… I don't know I've been kind of scatter brained." I said honestly as I pulled on my black heels.

"Today? Do you want me to…" But I stopped him.

"No… this is awkward enough with out you there." I told him. "I'll be fine on my own, I always am."

I was being really distant with this thing. Maybe it was because I felt really insecure, or maybe it was because I didn't want to get all excited and then lose it like last time. But I didn't want Dean anywhere near me when this was going on. I didn't want his help, or support or anything. I just wanted to do it on my own. Maybe I was embarrassed. Or maybe I was afraid that I could still die.

"You sure?" He asked. I reach up and kissed him on the cheek.

"Positive. But I have to go to work now. So I will see you when I get home around… like four? Love you... bye!" I said before jolting out the door.

----

(Dean's POV)

I didn't understand her anymore. We had been together for four years and now I didn't understand her. She never wanted me around, she didn't want me to help. All she wanted was to be on her own and do everything by herself and it was scaring me.

"Was Gabi ever like that?" I asked Sam. I asked him to come over because I needed to talk to someone. But he just laughed at me.

"No… she used it for all it was worth. I mean she worked for as long as she could. But once she came home she would sit there and make me do everything. Not that I minded. It was actually kind of funny… but she definitely used it to her advantage." He told me.

"She just won't ever stop. I mean she never has, but at this point shouldn't she? Especially considering her past with this kind of thing." I said.

"Maybe that's just it. She doesn't want to think about it so she is doing all she can to keep her mind off of it. Plus around you is when she is the most vulnerable, she maybe that's why she's avoiding you." The kid had a point. Well, he wasn't a kid anymore… but to me he always would be.

"Thanks Sammy, maybe you're right." I said. I was about to get a cup of coffee, but when I opened the cabinet it was empty, except for a note from Annie.

'If I can't have it, neither can you…not easy huh?'

I laughed and crumbled the note up. "She is going to make this hell for me…" I said.

A while later Sam left and I was alone again. I pretty much figured that pushing Annie to open to me was a bad idea. So I wasn't going to. As much as I wanted her to tell me what was going on, I couldn't make her.

---------

(Annie's POV)

I went to the doctor. I hated Dean. I hated him with a passion.

"Dean Winchester I am going to kill you!" I yelled as I walked through the door. He was in the living room.

"Woah… what did I do?" He asked. He was apparently scared of my change in attitude.

I clenched my jaw and walked up to him. With my heels I was just two or three inches shorter then him so I looked a little bit more intimidating.

"Getting thrown around by demons and chased by Wendigos I can handle. Hell I can even take getting beat to death by an Enchantress or ran after by a shape shifter, or getting bitten by a vampire bat! But one thing I can't handle is this!" I yelled. I knew I needed to calm down. But it wasn't happening. At this point I was hyperventilating and was light headed, but I was not going to appear weak.

"Annie… calm down what is going on?" He asked as he placed his hands on my shoulders. I threw them off of me and backed away.

"Oh no… do not touch me. That is how this whole thing got started in the first place!" I exclaimed before storming off to the bedroom.

Of course he followed. I could hear him laughing a little bit but he was still completely serious.

"Ok babe, you need to calm down this kind of temper isn't normal… even for you." He said.

Ok that was it.

"Nothing is normal Dean, but you want to know the most un-normal this about this huh? Well I will tell you… I am having twins. Yes you heard right. We aren't having one kid, but two. How the hell are we supposed to manage that? I can't even take care of myself half the time and neither can you. But two screaming crying babies who can't do anything but… well scream and cry… how are we supposed to do that? I don't think I can…." I was starting to break down a little and at this point I let him come over and hold me in his arms.

"I'm so scared…." I admitted.

"Me too…" He told me.

"Why are you scared? You're life isn't at risk." I let it slip. I didn't mean to say that, but I did.

"Annie if something happens to you I will die… I can't live with out you… I found that out a long time ago." He told me as he wiped a tear off of my face.

"I'm sorry that I've been so distant… but I've just felt so… I don't know… insecure and ugly even. I just wanted to hide…" I said honestly.

"Baby don't ever think that, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. I love you." He told me softly. I smiled and relaxed my head on his chest.

"I feel better now." I said. I wasn't sure if it was true or not, but I knew that eventually it would be.

----

(10 months later)

So, I lived. Barely, but I did. And now, we had two little lives to take care of. It had been three months and we had already decided that this was it. We were not having anymore kids ever again.

But for now we had a beautiful little girl and boy. Tyler and Amelia, otherwise known as Ty and Mia.

Ellie was still the center of Sam's world. But now that she was three, and rather independent and original, he had started to learn that she would be fine.

Gabi was still herself. She and Sam were still completely in love, that would never change.

As for me, I was good. Great actually. Dean was incredible, he always had been. But ever since the twins were born he had grown up even more. I loved him more then life and every day I thanked God that I crashed into him outside that Inn in Pennsylvania.

Life couldn't get any better then this. Ever. It was filled with love, excitement, and the occasional evil hunting. (Yes we still did that, but we had a rare job and we were obliged to do it)

But it was us. The four of us… well… now the seven of us. But it would always be us.

For now, forever, and for always.

THE END.
