Another one shot for you. This one has been playing around in my head for a few days now so I thought why not?

I will be posting some multi chapter fics soon!


The bed moving next to me woke me from my sleep, I flickered my eyes open and saw Dean getting up, he was grabbing his clothes from the floor and I groaned in annoyance. If he was getting up that means it is morning and that means that we are going to be on the road soon and heading back to the Roadhouse.

"Morning" He smiled and leaned over to kiss me on the lips.

"Morning" I smiled back.

"I'm just going to grab a shower" He stated and headed into the bathroom, closing and locking the door behind him, I heard the water turn on seconds later.

I have been dreading this day for weeks.

For the past 5 months, Dean and I have been dating, which is going great and I love him and I know he loves me but my mom... yeah she doesn't know that we're dating. We didn't mean for it to be this big secret, to be honest we wasn't even going to begin dating, we were just sleeping with each other after a bad day or if we had a bit to drink and it just snowballed and now we're actually in a real relationship.

After we started seeing each other officially, we spoke to Sam about it and he was fine with it, I was worried he would think I was trying to take Dean away from him but he was happy for us. Although, he insisted that from now on we get 2 rooms because he no longer wanted to share with us.

We were going to tell my mom but we all know how she is; she's overprotective, she's scary and we knew what she was going to say and how she was going to react. We ended up just putting it off and now here we are five months later and she still doesn't know.

Today we're leaving the motel and we're going to see mom, it's her birthday and it's the one day a year we always spend together. She knows I've been hunting with Sam and Dean and invited them to come along. Dean and I instantly panicked and started thinking about what to do; do we tell her? I mean, I don't think it will be the best gift for her. I know she likes Dean but she still has this thing against the Winchesters because of what happened to my dad, it still hurts her and she holds a little bit of resentment.

We're only about 5 hours out from the Roadhouse so it's not going to take us all that long to get there, on the plus side for Dean he hasn't got to drive for 8+ hours like he normally does every day and we're not going to end up in some old motel tonight, we'll be sleeping in normal beds with a belly full of good food and some good beer. Speaking of sleeping in normal beds, Dean and I can't share a bed tonight and I have no idea how we're going to be able to sleep, we've been sharing a bed for more than 5 months now... it's going to be weird and I don't think I'll be able to sleep.

I heard the water turn off and Dean came out of the bathroom, he was dripping wet with just a towel hung pretty low around his hips, I know he knows how damn good he looks. He turned around to look at me and gave me a smirk when he caught me staring at him.

"You look like a lion that's just seen dinner" He commented with a laugh.

"Maybe I am" I replied and bit on my bottom lip.

I was still mostly naked from last night, I was only wearing my panties so I 'stretched' and let the covers fall down slightly exposing my breasts to him. He looked down at them instantly and I saw him swallow a big lump in his throat.

Knowing I had him, I got out of bed and walked over to him, placing a kiss on his lips. I pulled away and went to walk away towards the bathroom when he grabbed my arm and pulled me back. He smashed his lips onto mine and wrapped his arms around me to stop me going anywhere. I felt his 'excitement' press up against my thigh through his towel and smiled against his lips.

Dean's hands went down to my ass and he gripped onto me before he lifted me up, I squealed in delight and instantly wrapped my legs around him as he pressed me against the wall, not once breaking the kiss.

I broke the kiss and pulled my lips back slightly from his "I love you Dean" I commented.

"I love you too darling"

"Dean, we've listened to this three times already" Sam complained as Panama by Van Halen came over the speakers.

"It's a classic" Dean argued.

Sam tried to eject the cassette tape from the stereo but Dean whacked his hand away "Remember the rule; driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cakehole" He stated.

Sam sighed and turned to look out the window. I couldn't stop the small giggle that escaped my lips; Dean looked at me through the rear view mirror. The two of them remind me of children sometimes... ok most of the time. They spend most of the day bickering and disagreeing on things but Sam knows the rules, he's done it to me and Dean multiple times, when Dean actually lets him drive, Sam will deliberately choose music that he knows Dean doesn't like to annoy him and says the exact same thing.

Being on the road with Sam and Dean, I've learned a lot about 'adult' men and how they are with one another. Dean is definitely the 'alpha male' and Sam is trustworthy lieutenant who wants to be the boss one day, but probably never will be.

"There's a rest stop a few miles from here, why don't we stop there and stretch our legs for a little while, we've been coped up in here since we left the motel" I suggested.

"I guess we could stop for some gas" Dean replied.

"You two just want to delay seeing Ellen" Sam said.

"You're right Sammy, I do want to delay it as much as possible because I don't want her to shoot my dick off" Dean told him "And remember the rules, not a word to Ellen about anything. As far as she knows, Jo has her own room and we all keep things professional" Dean finished.

"Yeah I know the rules" He sighed "I don't get why you just don't tell her. You can't keep it from her forever" He added.

"Because I don't want to give my mother a heart attack or aneurysm for her birthday... and I don't want her to shoot Dean" I answered.

"Do you think she'd really shoot you?" Sam asked his brother.

"Yes" Dean and I replied at the same time.

"When I dated Rick, the first time my mother met him she 'accidentally' dropped a knife that landed in his hand, sharp side down. She still swears it was an accident but I know it wasn't, she also shot a guy at the roadhouse in the arm for slapping my ass..." I trailed off and Dean looked worried "Which is why we're not going to say anything, until we are far away" I stated.

"Or maybe we just never mention it" Dean shrugged.

After our stop at the rest stop, the rest of the drive went by way too quickly for me. I swapped seats with Sam and sat shotgun with Dean so we could have a few hours with each other before we had to put on our 'act'. I also think Sam wanted a little break from sitting next to Dean but I was more than happy to oblige. It was nice, we spent most of the drive with Dean's hand on my thigh and my arm wrapped around his but now that's all ended.

Dean pulled the car up to the Roadhouse and switched the engine off. Sam got out straight away but I just stayed sat in my seat with Dean next to me. He looked as worried as I felt. I untangled myself from him and shifted a little further from him just in case mom came out.

"Are you ready?" Dean asked.

"No but we're here now" I answered "I love you" I added.

"I love you too darling"

Dean and I got out of the car and with Sam we made our way into the bar. The second we walked through the door I spotted mom, she was sitting at one of the tables with Bobby, the two of them sharing a bottle of Whiskey by looks of it.

"Jo!"

She got up from her seat and rushed over to me, instantly wrapping her arms around me and holding me close. I hugged her back and I felt bad for dreading this trip, it felt nice to be in my mom's arms and hugging her, it feels like it has been way too long.

She pulled away and looked me over "You look great" She commented and I felt a blush rise up to my cheeks "Those boys been taking care of you?" She asked.

"Yes mom, they've been really great" I replied.

"She's a badass... like her mom" Dean commented.

Mom smiled at him and hugged him "It's good to see you" She said and turned her attention to Sam "You too Sam" She added "Thank you for taking care of Jo for me" She told me.

"Don't mention it" Dean said with a wave of his hand, desperate to change the subject.

We greeted Bobby and grabbed some glasses to have a drink with them. I sat in between mom and Dean, I wanted nothing more than to reach over and grab his hand or put my hand on his thigh, like we normally do when sitting next to each other. I glanced over at Dean and it looked as though he was having the same thoughts.

"So, what have you three been up to? Jo said she would call more but I go weeks without hearing from her"

"We've been busy" Sam answered "A Vampire here, a Wraith there and sometimes, if we're lucky, we get a Wendigo or Djinn too" He finished.

"She been doing well?" Mom asked, turning to Dean.

"She is right here and she can hear you" I stated.

"Don't worry Ellen; Jo's been doing real good. She's a good hunter and we've got her back, she's good" Dean answered.

"The three of you better call more" She stated.

"Yes ma'am" Sam and Dean answered together, I giggled a little at them, they sounded like kids that had just been told off.

"Let's not talk about work" Bobby suggested as he held up the bottle of Whiskey to start pouring more drinks.

"I agree no more hunter talk" I agreed as Bobby filled up my glass.

SUPERNATURAL

All in all it was a good day. It was nice to spend some time with mom. We even got to leave the boys for a little while and just have some mom/daughter time and it felt like the old days, just the two of us. Sometimes I miss it but I feel like now I have all this new found freedom that I didn't have before. I love hunting with Sam and Dean, they listen to me and they let me take the lead, the trust my instincts and they are always there to help if I need it. It was never like that with my mom, she used to just take over and treat me like a kid, I think we're better off as we are right now.

One thing I have really missed today though is being with Dean. We've hardly had a second together since we got here, earlier I was making dinner in the kitchen and Dean came in to see if I needed any 'help' and we managed to sneak a couple kisses in before he had to head back out. I feel like a teenager again, it does feel a bit exciting, like a forbidden romance but then like I said, I miss him and just being with him.

Mom set up some beds for the guys downstairs in the back room and I had my bedroom all made up and ready for me upstairs. If I thought I could get away with mom not hearing me, I would sneak down there and then sneak back up here before mom woke up in the morning. I know she'll catch me, she's got ears like a hawk, and it's why I never got away with anything in high school!

I tossed and turned in bed and out of instinct I reached out for Dean but the other side of the bed was obviously cold and empty. I sighed in annoyance and threw the other pillow at the wall opposite me, it was pathetic but I didn't make a noise and I got to throw something.

My bedroom door started to open and I held my breath, surely mom didn't hear that! No one's hearing is that good... Dean walked into my room and I let out a sigh of relief, he quietly closed the door over and tiptoed over the floor to my bed.

"What are you doing here?" I asked in a hushed tone.

"I can't sleep" He admitted.

"Me neither" I replied.

Dean slid into bed beside me and I instantly wrapped my arms around him and rested my head on his chest, this is home. Dean wrapped his arms around me and held me close to him, he placed a small kiss on the top of my head.

"I'm glad you're here" I told him.

"Don't wanna be anywhere else" He said and kissed the top of my head again.

I looked up at him and smiled before leaning up to kiss him on the lips. He kissed me back instantly and I decided to take control. I changed our positions so that I was straddling his hips, I was only wearing a large t-shirt and some panties but my minimal clothing started to feel constricting as our kiss heated up.

It was as if Dean was reading my mind; he started pulling at my t-shirt and I lifted my arms, breaking our kiss for just a moment as he pulled my t-shirt off and dropped it down to the floor beside us. I grabbed his face in my hands and kissed him again, Dean's arms wrapped around my body, his hands on my bare back started sending goosebumps down my body, I loved his hands on my skin.

Dean's lips left mine and I let out a quiet moan of protest, he smiled at me before taking off his shirt and dumping it on the floor. His lips went to my neck and he hit that sweet spot, just below my ear, I threw my head back slightly to allow him better access to my neck. He knew what kissing me there did to me.

He flipped us over in the bed so I was now lying on the bed and he was on top of me, he sat up slightly to look over my body and he looked... hungry... for lack of a better word. I love how he makes me feel so sexy, I never used to see myself as this sexy Goddess of a woman. I know I've always had a good figure but the way he made me feel, it was something completely different to what I had ever felt before.

Just as Dean was about to kiss me again, my bedroom door opened and we both stopped like a couple of deer's caught in headlights. We both turned to my door and saw my mom stood there in her pyjamas. She looked just as shocked as we did... she just stood there staring at us for what felt like forever, neither Dean or I moved or said anything, we just looked back at her.

"Both of you downstairs" She stated with no emotion and left.

"Oh my God" I groaned and covered my face in embarrassment.

"These are my last words; I love you darling" He said and placed one soft kiss on my lips before getting out of the bed and putting his shirt back on.

I followed and put my t-shirt back on and found some shorts to put on to cover my underwear. I grabbed Dean's hand and he led us out of my bedroom and down the stairs, my mom was sitting at one of the tables, just a couple of lights on making the bar still pretty dark.

Dean and I sat down opposite her, Dean's hand held onto mine like a death grip.

"Mom-" I started but she held her hand up to shut me up.

"How long?" She asked.

"A few months" I answered.

"And neither of you thought to mention anything?" She asked, turning to Dean.

"Look Ellen" He started and paused for a second trying to think of the best way to speak to her "We never planned this, it just kind of developed over time but I want you to know that I love Jo and I would never do anything to intentionally hurt her or put her in harm's way" He finished.

"All night, we've been sat around this table talking and laughing, not once did either of think to mention that you were seeing each other... am I that hard to talk to?" She asked, turning to me this time.

"You remember what you did to Rick? Or that guy you shot for slapping my ass? Or what about in high school when you caught me kissing that boy from class, you threatened to shoot him" I reminded her "I didn't want you to over react" I added.

"And do you remember why those things happened? You kept them secret from me, I had to find everything through someone else. You never come to me with anything and I know I can be over protective but that's just because I know how easy it can be to lose someone" She explained.

"Ellen I would never let anything happen to her, I would die first" Dean jumped in.

"What happened between John and your dad-"

"Won't happen with me and Dean" I interrupted "Sam and Dean have got my back every day. I am as safe as I can be with them" I told her.

"Me and Sam are not our father" Dean added.

Mom leaned back in her chair as she thought everything over. The silence was deafening and I squeezed Dean's hand, he squeezed mine back to let me know that he was here for me.

"I love him mom and he loves me" I stated.

"If anything happens to her Dean, I mean anything, I am holding you personally responsible" She told him.

"Like I told you, I would die before I let anything happen to her... I really do love her Ellen" He replied.

She didn't say anything else, she just nodded "I'm going back to bed" She stated and got up from the table "Turn the lights off before you go" She told us and disappeared.

Was that it? She didn't threaten to shoot him or kill him or 'accidentally' drop a knife in his hand... was that really all she had to say? Dean and I looked at each other, confused about what just happened. Part of me feels like this is a trap or she is planning something but maybe we were judging her too harshly.

"Well that went..." Dean trailed off.

"Well?"

"Yeah, surprisingly well" He said.

Dean and I sat there in silence for a moment, both of us shocked at how well mom took the news. I was expecting some kind of freak out but she seemed pretty cool about the whole thing.

"I meant what I said to her you know" Dean said.

"About what?"

"I will never let anything happen to you and I would die first" He clarified.

"I know" I nodded "I love you"

"I love you too darling"
