Keeping Something Inside.

After Dean and Sam made sure that little Maria got home safe and sound, they went back to the Motel to find it deserted.

Sam hummed "Maybe Sage took Jack out for ice cream" he suggested. "Wouldn't be the first time"

"Yeah, maybe" said Dean as he closed the door, then cross the room and picked up a piece of paper that was placed on his side of the bed. It was written and Sage's chicken scratch that she calls handwriting.

'Took Jack out for ice cream. Cas went places unknown. Be back soon, love Sage'

"Hey, looks like your right about ice cream"

Sam Shrugged "shes crazy about the boy"

"Yeah, I've noticed" Dean murmured, as he sat down on to the bed.

Sage and Jack spends a lot of time together, she would often take him to the movies or out for ice cream. Or take the boy out shopping for clothes, or shopping in general. One time they went to a pet store, which Jack talked about the rabbits the fish the birds and the rats to anyone who would listen for a week straight. Sage finally relented and bought him a couple of rat's that he keeps in his room. That he named Ram and Rin. To this day he had no idea where he heard those names, but whatever.

And he knew Sam was beginning to think of himself as the boy's father, and Cas as his teacher, their mom as his friend and Sage as his big sister. But Dean Just couldn't trust him, or it's more likely that he doesn't want to trust him. Cause when or if he goes dark side, it would be that much harder to take him down. Dean was starting to see Jack wasn't his father, but that could easily change.

But that wasn't all that was bothering him.

"Sam"

"Yeah?"

"Sage, she's been pretty reckless lately"

Sam sighed as he took the seat at the table "Yeah, shes more like you then I thought"

"What?"

Sam continued as if he didn't speak a word "I love her as a sister, but I can't shake the feeling that she's keeping something from us"

Dean was feeling the same way. Last year she was distant, and even went on a few cases by herself, but after a month she started to act like her normal self, but to Dean it seems like it was forced, as if whatever she was keeping from them was tearing her to pieces inside. Thinking back, that's when Jack came into the picture. That's when she was starting to act like the carefree normal Sage that he fell in love with.

But he still can't get rid of a feeling that she's keeping a secret from them. But everytime they ask, she just changes the subject. She was good at that.

"Whatever it is," said Sam "I'm sure in time she'll come and tell us"

"She hasn't yet, and it's been a year" Dean pointed out "and I'm getting a little worried"

"Yeah man, I'm worried to. But it's not like we can chain her to a wall and make her tell us"

Dean snorted "not unless we want bloody noses"

"Yeah" Sam agreed. "How about Cas tries talking to her, those two are like brother and sister, maybe she'll open up to him"

Dean couldn't help but feel hurt that whatever is going on with her she won't open up to him, though, she knew him, and she also knew that he didn't like opening up about his feelings. But he had said that it was different with her and he meant it.

"Yeah maybe. Gonna go for a beer run"

oOo

Sage always had a good time when she was with Jack. After they had their ice cream, they went to a arcade, played a few games for a half an hour. Who knew that it would be so much fun?

Jack reached his goal of 100 tickets, but to her surprise he gave them to a little boy that only had two.

Jack talked about the games, and how fun it was the whole time they drove back to the motel. Sage let him talk.

How will Jack react when her 24 years are up? And what about Sam? Will he understand the reason she did it? Will Cas try to pull her out of hell like he did with Dean? Dean. What will Dean do? What concerned her most of all was, what would Dean do?

She knew she most definitely didn't think this through, but Dean was dead, and she had no time to think. But she doesn't regret it. Dean was alive because of what she did, and that's all that matters. He'll be angry and blame himself, but he wouldn't be Dean if he didn't. Sam would be sad, but would understand the reason she did it. Cas and Jack will try all that they can to bring her back. Mary would talk Sam Dean Cas and Jack out of doing anything stupid. Mary would be sad, but she would be there for the boys.

The thought that Sage didn't take anyone else's feelings into consideration just hit her. In the moment it seemed the thing to do, the only thing she could have done. But now she was thinking perhaps there was another way.

When they got to the motel Sage was going to tell Sam Dean Cas and Jack everything, but when she saw Sam and Dean arguing about some movie that was on TV, Cas's confused expression, she couldn't.

She stood there, watching the people who had become her friend's, her family.

Sam was the first to notice them.

"Hey boys" she greeted.

"Hey, how was the ice cream" he asked Jack as he joined them on Sam's 'bed'.

She smiled. She had everything she would ever need, right here in this motel room.

"Hey" Dean came and kissed her. "Had fun?"

"Yep, you?"

"Yep"

She knew she had to tell them, but not to night.
