SIMON SAID
Evie's POV
I heard the Impala finally pull up outside and my face lit up as I jumped up from the study couch throwing the book aside and jumped up ignoring my Dad's protest as I ran throwing the door open rushing out onto the porch seeing Sam and Dean getting out of the Impala and wasted no time rushing down the stairs throwing myself into Dean's arms.
"Evelyn!" he protested but I didn't care I was so glad to see him.
"Shut up I missed you like crazy and no I won't repeat that" I replied and saw him smile as he pulled me close as I clung to his neck.
"How are you and the little nugget?" Dean asked making me smile as I leaned back.
"Same as you left Dean" I replied unable to wipe the smile off my face because it was so great to hear him finally talking about our baby. "How'd everything go?"
"Well were back so obviously we took care of it" he said and I nodded then looked over at Sam seeing his right wrist in a cast.
"Aw Sammy" he crooned stepping away from Dean and walked over to Sam pulling him into a hug.
"Broke my wrist but it's okay, how are you it wasn't the same without you on the hunt" I smiled stepping back.
"Thanks Sammy, missed you too" I turned back to Dean. "And this is the last time you guys leave me behind"
"Eve-"
"Ah no way Dean Winchester, never again" I argued glaring at him and he rolled his eyes but smiled coming over wrapping his arms around my waist as we headed inside.
So much to Dean's detest I was once again in the comfortable back seat of the Impala reunited with my boys in the middle of nowhere and although most normal people wouldn't find this comforting at all but it was my favorite place to be.
"Maybe you should go check on Sam, he's been in there a while" I spoke up looking up towards the gas station where Sam had gone to the bathroom like twenty minutes ago.
"He's fine" Dean shrugged scanning through the newspaper for a case.
"Dean" I said and he turned to me. "Go" he frowned. "Now" he rolled his eyes but opened the door and started to get out. "And while you're in there get me some peanut butter cups"
"Anything else princess?" he asked and I smiled.
"Actually yeah some strawberry milk would be nice too" he turned back having not expected me to ask for anything else. "Thankyou" I smiled and he rolled his eyes with a small smile as he went into service station.
I sat mindlessly waiting for them to return as I wrote in my journal but when I looked up I took note of the worried and frantic look on Sam's face so I got out and walked towards them seeing Dean trailing behind him with an equally worried look on his face but his was more pointed towards his brother.
"What's wrong?" I asked looking at Sammy.
"He had a vision" Dean answered when Sam walked right past me without answering.
"Like a demon vision?" I asked and he nodded as we turned seeing Sam get into the front seat.
"Yeah but he doesn't know where it's gonna happen so he wants to go to the Roadhouse to see Ash"
"Ash?" he nodded then sighed and walked over to the driver's seat so I sighed myself and followed him getting back into the back and Dean pulled away.
"I don't know man, why don't we just chill out think about this?" Dean spoke after a long silence.
"What's there to think about?" Sam asked him turning the radio off.
"I just don't know if going to the Roadhouse is the smartest idea" Dean argued.
"It's another premonition, I know it" Sam protested and I looked up. "This is gonna happen and Ash can tell us where"
"Yeah man but-"
"Plus it could have a connection with the demon, my visions always do" Sam continued ignoring Dean's protests.
"That's my point" Dean replied and I frowned knowing what he was talking about. "There's gonna be hunters there and I don't know if…if going in announcing that you're some supernatural freak with a demonic connection is the best thing, okay" Dean added and both Sam and I turned to him when he said freak because that wasn't the right word use to explain these visions, they didn't make Sam a freak.
"So I'm a freak now?" Sam asked him.
"You've always been a freak" Dean replied playing it off but I rolled my eyes at him.
"Don't listen to him Sammy, your not a freak" I cut in and Sam smiled appreciative.
We made it to the Roadhouse and walked right in seeing it was busy crawling with hunters who turned and stared at us as soon as we walked in and I found myself subconsciously aware that it made me feel uneasy and inch closer to Dean as we walked with Jo seeing us and smiled.
"Just can't stay away, huh?" she asked flirtatiously looking at Dean making me roll my eyes with a small smile knowing she was just trying to get a rise out of me, we used to do it all the time when we were teens hanging out in here flirting with a few of the younger hunter men that passed through.
"Keep dreaming Jo, how you doing?" I asked.
"Where's Ash?" Sam asked coming up behind us before she could answer.
"In his backroom" she replied and I scoffed shaking my head since of course that's where he was.
"Great" Sam said heading that way straight away.
"And I'm great" Jo added watching him go before turning back to me and Dean.
"Sorry he's…we're kinda on a bit of a timetable" Dean excused and she nodded before he started in the direction Sam had gone. "Coming Shortstack?"
"Shortstack?" Jo asked but I shrugged with a smile and followed Dean into the back taking the lead to show them Ash's room seeing the same sign on the front of his door 'Dr Badass is' and another that had 'In' on one side and 'Out' on the other and right now it was turned to 'In' and chuckled to myself as I knocked.
"Ash…hey Ash!" I called but he wasn't answering and I knew why but I wasn't saying it.
"Hey Dr Badass" Dean called knocking himself and Ash finally answered and I avoided my eyes seeing him butt naked.
"Sam, Dean, Evie" I rolled my eyes.
"Hey Ash, um…we need your help" Sam replied.
"Oh hell then I guess I need my pants" I nodded and he closed the door so we headed back out to the main area to wait for him taking a seat at the bar, Dean ordered beers for him and Sam and water for me making me roll my eyes but turned to Sam as he grabbed a napkin and started drawing a symbol on it then showed it to Ash when he came out and he got to work finding out what it was as he and Sam moved to a table.
"I got a match" Ash said after only a couple of minutes. "It's the logo for the Blue Ridge Bus Lines Guthrie, Oklahoma"
"Okay do me a favor, check Guthrie for any demonic signs or omens or anything like that" Sam asked and Ash looked up.
"You think the demon's there?" he asked him.
"Yeah maybe" Sam replied vaguely.
"Why would you think that?" Ash asked again.
"Just check it, alright?" Dean cut in and I looked up giving him a look as did Ash before clicking away running his programs.
"No sir, nothing no demon" he replied and I frowned.
"Alright try something else for me" Sam said and I turned to him curious. "Search Guthrie for a house fire, it would be 1983 fire's origin would be a baby's nursery night of the kids 6-month birthday" he added and I felt Dean look around anxious as Ash gave him a dumbfounded look.
"Okay now that is just weird man, why the hell would I be looking for that?" Ash asked him and Sam's response was to put down his unopened beer in front of Ash.
"Cause there's a PBR in it for you"
"Give me 15 minutes" Ash replied straight away so I rolled my eyes and grabbed Dean's hand pulling him towards the bar leaving Ash to work.
"Hey Ellen, can we get another beer and a water please?" I asked and she nodded getting Dean a beer and giving me a glass of water with an odd look and I had a feeling it was because I wasn't drinking but she moved off without a word and I sipped at the glass. "I'm worried about Sam" I spoke up barely above a whisper as I leaned back against Dean as he took a seat on one of the stools. "You know as well as I do every time he gets these visions he goes off the rails"
"We'll keep an eye on him like we always do"
"Oh so I'm not gonna get left here?" I asked smugly looking at him over my shoulder.
"No, I'm keeping my eyes on you" he replied kissing my neck making me smile but it fell into a look of confusion when REO Speedwagon's 'I can't fight this feeling' came out of the Jukebox and we looked up towards Jo.
"What?" she asked seeing our looks.
"REO Speedwagon?" Dean asked her.
"Damn right REO, Kevin Cronin sings it from the heart" she defended and I laughed.
"He sings it from the hair there's a difference, nice to see your music taste still hasn't changed Jo" I replied.
"Thought you guys needed some mood music" she replied and I rolled my eyes looking back at Dean shrugging my shoulders as he gave me a confused look but I never could explain Jo, she was crazy but had been the only girl friend I had. "That profile you guys have Ash looking for, your mom died the same way didn't she?" she suddenly asked looking at Dean who turned to her. "A fire in Sam's nursery?"
"Look Jo, its kind of a family thing" Dean dismissed.
"I could help" she offered and I looked up harshly then turned to Ellen.
"I'm sure you could but we gotta handle this one ourselves"
"Besides if you ran off with us, your mom might kill us" I replied and Ellen heard it giving us a confused look so we just nodded at her.
"Still afraid of my mother?" she asked with a smug smile.
"I think so, she never let us get away with anything" I argued right as Sam rushed up towards us.
"We got a match, we gotta go"
"Alright Jo, we'll see you later" I told her as I stood and walked out with the boys.
Back in the Impala heading to Guthrie I was resting with my head pressed against the glass of the back window trying to catch some sleep when Dean started singing REO and I scoffed shaking my head at him.
"You're kidding, right?" Sam suddenly asked and Dean stopped.
"I heard it somewhere I can't get it out of my head I don't know man" I rolled my eyes. "What do you got?"
"Andrew Gallagher born '83 like me, lost his mother in a nursery fire exactly six months later also like me"
"You think the demon killed his mom?" Dean asked him .
"Sure looks like it" Sam agreed.
"How did you even know to look for this guy?" I frowned as I opened my eyes looking up at them.
"Every premonition I've had if they're not about the demon, they're about this kids the demon visited, like Max Miller remember him?" my frown deepened because I remembered Max and didn't like to be reminded on how close of a call that hunt was.
"Yeah but Max Miller was a pasty little psycho" Dean joked.
"My point is he was killing people and I was having the same type of visions about him, now it could be happening again with this Gallagher"
"So how to we find him?" I cut in.
"I don't know, no current address, no current employment still owes money on his bills, phone, credit, utilities"
"Collection agency flags?" Dean asked.
"None in the system" Sam replied which made no sense.
"They just let him take a walk?" I asked him.
"Seems like it" Sam shrugged. "There's a work address from his last W2 about a year ago, we'll start there" I sighed leaning back against the seat rubbing my temples but looked up seeing Dean's eyes on me in the rearview mirror so I just plastered a fake smile on my face even though I knew he wouldn't believe it for a second.
I couldn't sleep at all in the Impala since I don't know what it was but cars make me nauseous ever since I got pregnant and probably for the fact that I was in a car accident a few months ago that should have damn near kill me but I got out with only a few bumps and bruises.
When we arrived in Guthrie, Oklahoma it was daylight and we changed into our suits as soon as we booked into the first motel we could find but I was finding my over coat a little snug which was strange given I just got this thing a few months ago too.
"Evie hurry up" I rolled my eyes at Sam's urging as I walked out of the bathroom.
"Chill Sam, I'm trying to get this to look better" they looked down at where my coat looked ready to pop at any second. "Dean did you stick it in the dryer again?" I asked since that's what he'd done to my last one.
"No Sam did the washing last and he's girly enough to remove all the delicates before drying them" he argued and I frowned looking down at it before unbuttoning it since it looked better that way but less professional.
"Don't take this the wrong way Evie but I think your starting to show" Sam cut in making my eyes widen as I looked down not seeing anything so I ran back into the bathroom to stand in front of the mirror turning to the side looking at my stomach.
"No I'm not" I argued not seeing much or any difference at all.
"Sam's kind of right, there is a little bit of a swell" Dean replied walking in standing behind me lowering his hand towards it hesitating a little before he finally laid his hand over my stomach rubbing his hand underneath and with his hand there I was able to see the subtle swelling making me gasp.
"What the fu…how can I just pop overnight, it wasn't like that last night…was it?" I asked looking up at Dean but he shrugged not having a clue about this anymore than I would.
"It probably was you just haven't taken any notice"
"I think I would've noticed I was getting fatter Sam" I snapped glaring back at him and Dean smirked looking over at Sam as he rubbed his hand over my stomach again making me look down and place my hand next to his overlapping our fingers a little as he both cradled the small bump and when I looked up I saw he was smiling down at it almost with pride and happiness which was an improvement from the last couple of weeks since I told him and he was too shocked to feel anything for the tiny life now clearly growing within me.
"As cute as this moment is guys, we have to go" Sam interrupted and I turned with another glare when it seemed to snap Dean back to his usual self and step back taking his hands off.
"Thanks Sam" I spat pushing past him out of the bathroom and picked up my gun going to stash it in it's usual spot at my back but it was suddenly pulled out of my hands. "Hey!" I turned seeing Dean holding it and he moved it above his head when I tried grabbing for it. "Dean what the hell are you doing, were not five"
"Your not stashing a gun anywhere on your person, you could accidently shoot yourself"
"It has a safety dumbass and I've never shot myself before"
"I don't care" he lifted the back of his suit jacket and stashed it next to his.
"You guys are such asses, I'm not fragile you know"
"Never said you were but your carrying precious and delicate cargo so your gonna have to suck it up Shortstack" Dean argued grabbing the Impala keys off the side table and started walking out.
"Your still an ass" I stupidly remarked not having any other comeback to that as of this moment.
"Yeah I know" he agreed with a smirk just making me roll my eyes as I followed them out with Dean locking up.
He drove to a diner where this guy last worked and we sat down with a waitress coming around almost immediately, they both ordered a coffee and when I went to Sam cut me off ordering for me a decaf and I glared at him as I kicked his shin.
"Ow" he said under his breath as he returned my glare with one of his own and Dean was smirking enjoying this whole situation without backing me up.
"Don't look at me, coffee is bad for you so again suck it up Shortstack" I turned a glare on him until he grabbed my hand underneath the table and rubbed his thumb over my knuckles turning me into mush in seconds and I cursed those damn pregnancy hormones since they made me putty in his hands with a single touch. "We're just looking out for you" I sighed refraining from rolling my eyes again.
"Fine" I agreed as the waitress came back and poured out the coffee giving a the decaf which I took a sip of but nearly reached at the taste as it was horrible stuff but looked up when Sam began the questioning asking her if she knew where Andy Gallagher was.
"You won't get anything out of Andy, I'm sorry but they never do" she replied dismissively and I looked up with confusion.
"They?" I asked her.
"You're debt collectors, right?" she asked back. "Once in a while they come by, I don't know what Andy say's to them but they never come back"
"Actually we're lawyers representing his Great-Aunt Lita, she passed god rest her soul but left Andy a sizable estate" Dean lied effortlessly as usual.
"Yeah, so are you a friend of his?" Sam asked turning back to her after sharing a look with Dean after his lie.
"I used to be yeah, I don't see much of Andy anymore" she replied and I looked up sensing there was more to those words than she clearly wanted to share.
"Andy?" some guy suddenly asked and took the remaining empty seat beside me. "Andy kicks ass man"
"Is that right?" Dean asked appraising him.
"Yeah Andy can get you into anything, he even got me backstage at Aerosmith once it was beautiful bro" the boys scoffed approval but I knew they were taking in the information.
"How about busting a table or two Webber?" the girl suddenly spoke up almost glaring at his interruption.
"Yeah, you bet boss" Webber agreed getting up and went off back to work and the girl turned back once he was gone with a sigh.
"Look if you want to find him try Orchard Street, just look for a van with a barbarian queen painted on the side" I raised an eye in question to that.
"Barbarian queen?" I asked her and she smiled nodding her head.
"She's riding a polar bear, its kind of hard to miss" she added before getting back to work herself.
The boys finished their coffee's and I had a few more sips out of my decaf before we got out with Dean dropping a few bills to cover the cost before we left getting back into the Impala and went back to the motel to quickly change back into normal street clothes and it felt good to be out of the suffocating jacket before we got back into the Impala and found Orchard Street spotting the van pretty quick since she was right, it wasn't hard to miss.
"I'm sorry, I'm starting to like this dude that van is sweet" I turned given I was in the passenger seat to raise a questioning brow at him. "What's wrong?" he asked turning back to us seeing Sam and I were both giving him looks, Sam's more annoyed to my curiosity on Dean's taste since that van was ridiculous.
"Nothing" Sam replied shaking his head.
"Sam you look like your sucking on a lemon, what's going on?" Dean asked turning to face him better in the back.
"This Andrew Gallagher he's the second guy like this we've found, the demon came when they were kids now their killing people"
"We don't know what Andrew is, could be innocent" I argued knowing where he was going with this.
"My visions haven't been wrong yet" Sam argued right back making a little sense but I refused to believe that someone was just destined to be evil and kill just because they had a run in with a demon when they were younger cause then I'd be in the same boat Sam was given a demon was the reason my mother was dead, granted not in the same way but the principal was still there.
"What's your point?" Dean asked him.
"My point is, I'm one of them" Sam replied and I frowned back at him.
"No you're not" Dean and I replied at the same time.
"Guys the demon said he had plans for me and children like me"
"Yeah?" Dean pressed.
"Yeah, maybe this is his plan, maybe we're all a bunch of psychic freaks, maybe we're all supposed to be-"
"What, killers?" Dean asked cutting him off.
"Yeah" Sam nodded.
"The demon wants you out there killing with your minds, is that it?" Dean asked him again and Sam just gave him a look. "Give me a break, your not a murder Sam you don't have it in your bones"
"No?" Sam spat back at him. "Last I checked I kill all kinds of things"
"But those things were asking for it there's a difference" Dean argued and Sam finally nodded so Dean turned back to look over at the van now that this line of conversation was done, it was a few more minutes as I fought to keep my eyes open but was alert when Sam called out spotting him and we all looked up seeing someone come out of the building in sweats and a robe making me raise an eye since really that's who was killing people.
We saw him turn back and look up at one of the apartment windows where a busty blonde was waving goodbye seductively and my confusion increased since there was no way someone like that would hook up with a doofus like him, we continued to watch him as he stopped a man walking past him and they spoke briefly before the guy suddenly handed over his coffee to Andy before they continued on like strangers but Andy stopped again to shake a darker man's hand then finally went towards his van.
"That's him" Sam suddenly spoke up. "That older guy that's him, he's the shooter"
"Well you keep on him, we'll stick with Andy" Dean replied looking back at him. "Go" Sam nodded getting out and started following the potential shooter while we stayed on Andy following him when he started to drive.
"Wake me up when he stops again" I spoke up leaning back closing my eyes hearing Dean scoff but I could care less I was exhausted but after only a couple of minutes Dean was stopping making me open them to see Andy had stopped in front of us, I looked over at Dean seeing him stash his gun out of sight in his jacket as Andy was walking towards us.
"Hey" he greeted leaning down to peer through Dean's window and smirked at me before inspecting the car. "This is a cheery ride, man '67 Impala's best year if you ask me, this is a serious classic" I saw Dean's hand come out from his jacket as he relaxed seeing as this guy wasn't a threat and wasn't actually all that bad to be honest.
"Yeah well you know I just rebuilt her to, can't let a car like this one go" Dean replied smiling as he talked about the Impala, it was his baby after all.
"Damn straight" Andy agreed hitting Dean on the shoulder. "Hey can I have it?" he suddenly asked and my friendly smile fell since he couldn't be serious.
"Sure man" Dean asked and it wasn't sarcastic making my eyes snap up as he climbed out.
"Dean!" I called as he smiled and just let Andy get into the front seat, something wasn't right here but just as I was about to say something Andy turned to me smiling.
"Fancy a ride with me, sweet thing?" he asked and I smiled leaning in.
"Not on your life pal" I said and saw an almost shocked look go through him as I climbed out and he sat for a minute before he pulled away and I could do nothing but watch as Dean came back from whatever the hell Andy just did from him and watched the Impala drive off.
"What…what!" he exclaimed then turned to me. "What the hell just happened?"
"How should I know, you're the one that just handed the Impala over to him"
"Why didn't you stop him?!" he yelled at me making me glare.
"Oh yeah right, we don't know what he's capable of and after that little demonstration it's like mind control but with what Max could do I wasn't putting my life and that of our child's on the line for your precious 'Baby' so excuse me for thinking about our actual baby" I yelled right back at him and saw him take a deep breath looking like he was ready to hyperventilate.
"I know I'm sorry, I'm just angry…at myself and that jerk, he just stole my car!" he leaned over placing his hands on his knees.
"Dean calm down we'll get it back it's not like he's going far" he nodded taking deep calming breaths before his phone suddenly rang and he flipped it open pressing to his ear.
"…I know!" he exclaimed to whatever Sam had said and by the sound of it he'd seen Andy with the Impala. "He just sort of asked me for it and I let him take it…he full on Obi-Wan'd me, it's mind control man" I couldn't help the small laugh at Dean's Star Wars pun. "Sam…Sam…what, where?" I looked up the smile suddenly gone watching him hang up. "We gotta go" he reached out so I placed my hand in his and we jogged to where Sam was meeting up with him seeing ambulances and coroners covering up the body of the guy Sam had been following.
We spotted Sam in the crowd sitting on the ground so we walked up to him and I placed my hand on his shoulder seeing his disappointed and guilty look but this wasn't his fault and clearly he had no control over it with what Andy could do.
"I kept him out of the gun store" Sam deadpanned. "Thought he was okay" he was close to tears and it was enough to make me want to break down too, stupid pregnancy hormones. "I thought he was past it, at least…I should've stayed with him" I turned to Dean sharing a look of sympathy for Sam knowing he was gonna feel guilty about this.
We got him up and away from the scene to look for the Impala walking around the town lucky that it wasn't that big since we finally found it and Dean was ecstatic rushing over and rubbed the trim lovingly making me roll my eyes.
"I'm sorry baby, I'll never leave you again" I shook my head at him as he inspected her closely making sure there was no marks or dents. "At least he left the keys in it"
"Yeah real Samaritan this guy" Sam scoffed.
"It looks like he can't work his mojo by twitching his nose, he's gotta use verbal commands" Dean theorized.
"It didn't work on me though" I added frowning not sure I was comforted by that any more than I was relieved as it made me wonder why.
"The Doctor had just gotten off his cell phone when he stepped in front of that bus" Sam said then sighed. "Andy must have called him or something"
"Yeah I don't know maybe" Dean agreed but it didn't sound very genuine.
"Beg your pardon?" Sam asked him picking up on it too.
"I just don't know if he's our guy Sam"
"Dean you had O.J. convicted before he even stepped out of his white Bronco and you doubt this?"
"He doesn't seem like the stone-cold-killer type, that's all" Dean argued with him. "And O.J was guilty" I rolled my eyes at his addition.
"Whatever, how are we gonna track this guy down?" I cut in stopping the useless disagreement.
"Not a problem" Dean replied with a smirk almost making me regret asking, we got back into the Impala with me in the back this time as Dean drove around spotting Andy's van again and we headed over to it looking around checking if the coast was clear. "Not exactly an inconspicuous ride, lets have a look" I scoffed since he drove an Impala but turned to him in shock when he pulled out a crowbar and pried the back doors open.
"Oh come on" I remarked glaring at the interior, it was filled with a lot of typical single man crap with really bad taste.
"This is magnificent that's what this is" Dean added looking at us and I rolled my eyes at him. "Not exactly a serial killers lair though, there's no clown paintings on the walls or scissors stuck in victims photo but the tiger…"
"Hegel, Kant, Wittgenstein that's some pretty heavy reading Dean" Sam commented picking up a few of the books that were on the bed that made up the floor of the van.
"Yeah and Moby Dick's bong" Dean added holding up a huge bong.
"Your ridiculous" I remarked as I walked away as they closed his van back up before following me back over to the Impala which Dean moved into a less noticeable place after we got some food since both Dean and I were starving, me more so given I was eating for two and we ate while watching his van which was in clear sight so we knew when Andy returned.
"You know one day I'd love to just sit down and eat something I didn't have to microwave at a mini-mart" Dean spoke up finishing his burger throwing the wrapper into the back seat beside me as I finished off the last of my second burger.
"What I don't get is the motive, I mean the doctor was squeaky-clean why would Andy waste him?" Sam said ignoring Dean as he continued to look through files in his lap.
"If it is Andy" Dean replied and I rolled my eyes.
"Dude enough" Sam argued.
"What?" Dean asked him.
"The doctor was mind-controlled in front of a bus, Andy just happens to have the power of mind control you do the math"
"I just don't think he's got it in him, that's all"
"Well how the hell would you know?" Sam argued glaring at him. "I mean why are you bending over backwards defending him?"
"Because your not right about this" I rolled my eyes as they continued to argue since I was just not in the mood or the state of mind to deal with this.
"About Andy?" Sam asked him.
"Hey!" someone suddenly yelled hitting the roof making me jump turning to Sam's window seeing Andy. "You think I haven't seen you three, why are you following me?" he asked looking around at all of us.
"Well we're lawyers, see a relative of yours has passed-"
"Tell the truth" Andy demanded cutting Sam off.
"That's what I'm-"
"We hunt demons" Dean suddenly said cutting Sam off and we turned to him in shock.
"What?" Andy asked clearly confused.
"Dean" Sam and I warned him together.
"Demons, Spirits things your worst nightmares wouldn't touch, Sam here is my brother, Evelyn is my girlfriend she's pregnant with my kid-"
"Dean shut up!" I exclaimed.
"I'm trying" he spat towards me before looking back at Andy. "He's psychic kind of like you, not really like you see he thinks you're a murderer and he's afraid he'll become one himself because your all part of something that's terrible, I hope the hell that he's wrong but I'm starting to get a little scared he might be right"
"Okay you know what, just leave me alone" Andy replied once Dean was done his little confession.
"Okay" Dean agreed grabbing at his head as Sam jumped out of the car to follow Andy as he walked away.
"Are you okay?" I asked him reaching forward placing my hand on his shoulder.
"Yeah, why arent you guys affected?" I shrugged not knowing the answer to that given I had no idea, Sam I was guessing it was because he was psychic so other psychic powers don't work on him but I was nothing special so it didn't make sense.
"Let's go" I told him instead and climbed out walking to where Sam was standing with Andy.
"You can make people do things, you can tell them what to think" we heard Sam saying before he turned seeing us getting out and held his hand up to stop us getting any closer, more so Dean given he was the one that could be affected by Andy's mind controlling.
"Look that's crazy" Andy argued.
"It all started about a year ago didn't it?" Sam asked him. "After you turned 22, little stuff then you got better at controlling it"
"How do you know all this?" Andy asked him back a shock look on his face.
"Cause the same thing happened to me Andy, my mom died in a fire too I have abilities too, you see we're connected you and me"
"You know what, just get out of here alright!" Andy exclaimed trying to leave again but Sam wasn't letting him.
"Why'd you tell the doctor to walk in front of a bus?"
"What?" Andy asked and I frowned since he actually looked shocked by that accusation but my frown went to one of worry when Sam suddenly began wincing and shaking his head.
"Why did you kill him?" Sam insisted once he seemed okay again but I knew better after the last time he had visions around us and knew he was about to have another by his actions and the tone of his voice.
"I didn't" Andy replied just as Sam lapsed into a vision so Dean and I ran forward to steady him as he started to fall.
"Sam what is it?" Dean asked as we grabbed him lowering him to take a seat in case he passed out completely from this one.
"Look I didn't do anything to him" Andy said but we just turned to glare at him to shut up.
"A woman burning alive" Sam suddenly said coming out of it.
"What else did you get?" Dean asked him.
"A gas station, a woman is gonna kill himself" Sam replied turning to look at Andy.
"What does he mean 'going to' what's-"
"Shut up" Dean and I snapped at Andy.
"She gets trigged by a call on her cell"
"When?" I asked him.
"I don't know, as long as we keep our eyes on him he can't hurt her" Sam replied as we helped him stand up.
"I didn't hurt anybody" Andy protested defensively.
"Yeah not yet" Sam spat at him but Dean and I turned hearing sirens and saw a fire truck speeding down the road and we turned to Sam with a look.
"Go" Sam told us so Dean and I took off getting into the Impala and took off after the truck and already knew what we were gonna find but it still didn't make it any less of horrific especially the smell in the air was enough to make me gag.
"Damn it" Dean cursed then turned towards me just as I bent over on the sidewalk and empty out what little I had in my stomach at the time.
"I'm fine" I assured him as I stood back upright, he nodded with a concerned smile but pulled out his phone to call Sam.
"Hey it's me, she's dead burned up just like you said…like minutes before we got here, smell hasn't even cleared it made Eve loose her stomach contents" I rolled my eyes at him for reminding me about it. "What's up with your visions this wasn't even a head start?" he asked Sam. "Listen we were with Andy when this whole thing went down so it can't be him, its gotta be somebody else…what else is new?" I sighed because nothing was ever simple anymore. "Well Evie and I will dig around here see what else we can find" I heard him add before he hung up. "You alright?" he asked turning to me.
"Yeah I fine" I breathed out through the urge to throw up again.
"Go wait in the car, I'll do the asking around" he told me and I didn't even try to argue with him and went back over to the car getting in blocking out 95% of the smell.
"You gotta get tougher little one if your gonna be born in this world" I spoke looking down at my stomach running my hands over the small bump there finding myself smiling a little still shocked that I was actually showing knowing it meant I was further along than I thought meaning I really had to see a doctor and get a better date so I knew when this baby was going to make its grand appearance in the world.
"All good?" Dean suddenly asked sliding into the drivers seat. "Eve you okay?" I looked up at him.
"Yeah" I mumbled.
"Hey, what's up you still nauseous?" I shook my head. "So what's wrong?"
"Nothing" I replied dropping my head.
"Talk to me Evie, we talked about keeping things remember" I sighed moving my eyes back up to meet his.
"Really it's nothing Dean, I was just thinking about this morning, with this" I pointed down at my stomach and he followed my hands with his eyes before looking back up at me. "I'm further along that I thought I was because you don't start showing until around the beginning of your second trimester and given how much sex you and I actually have I have no idea on when this baby was conceived so I was just thinking about it being a good idea for us to actually see a doctor and get a timeframe on when there's gonna be three of us"
"Your right and we should have done it sooner, as soon as we figure out this case we'll schedule an appointment" he replied but I frowned because I haven't heard that one before, something always comes up and that was gonna have to change. "Hey I promise and you know I keep my promises to you" I smiled a little and nodded my head. "Alright let's get back to Sam"
He drove back to where we'd left Sam and Andy pulling up to see them talking but once Sam saw the Impala he came towards it as we got out and he looked at me since no doubt I still looked pale and clammy from throwing up but I nodded that I was okay with a small smile since I was appreciative.
"Victims name was Holly Beckett, 41, single" Dean spoke up when Sam turned to him holding up his hands for the news.
"Who is she?" Sam asked looking down at Andy.
"Never heard of her" Andy shook his head.
"I called Ash on the way here" I spoke up. "He came up with something, apparently Holly Beckett gave birth when she was eighteen years old back in 1983, same day you were born Andy" I added looking at Andy with the last part.
"Andy were you adopted?" Sam asked turning to him as well.
"Well yeah" he agreed.
"You were" Dean replied practically glaring at him like it was his fault for not telling us that. "And you neglected to mention that?"
"Never really came up" Andy argued. "I mean, I never knew my birth parents and like you said my adopted mother died when I was a baby" he added looking at Sam but he quickly turned back to Dean. "Do you think this Holly woman could actually be my-" he asked us and I felt bad because once again we know someone who never got to know their mother or in Andy's case mothers.
"I don't know, tried to get a copy of the birth records but they're hard copy only sealed in the county office" Dean replied cutting him off and Andy scoffed at him.
"Well screw that" Andy said confusing me but we went to the county's office and he mind controlled our way in making me smile, we should keep him around it would make our job so much bloody easier.
"I probably shouldn't have let you kids in here" the guard said as we started pulling files off the shelves to look for Andy's birth records.
"No, it'll all be fine alright just go get a cup of coffee" Andy told him to get him out of the room leading him out. "Alright" he smiled as the guy did what he said. "And these arent the droids your looking for" he added making Dean and I look at each other with a small laugh.
"Awesome" Dean exclaimed as we walked over to Sam with more boxes.
"Got it" Sam said just as Andy came back over taking a seat next to Sam. "Andy its true, Holly Beckett was your birth mother" Andy scoffed in disbelief.
"Does anyone have a Vicodin?" Andy asked and I rolled my eyes.
"Dr Jennings was her doctor too, I mean he oversaw the adoption you have a solid connection to both of them" Sam added looking over at him.
"Yeah but I didn't kill them" Andy argued.
"We believe you" Dean said before Sam could say anything.
"Yeah" Sam added after looking up at Dean.
"But who did?" Dean asked nobody specific.
"I think I got a pretty good guess, Holly Beckett gave birth to twins" Andy's eyes widened as he stood and paced a little before stopping and put his hands above his head as he slowly came to terms with that news.
"I have an evil twin" he said after a couple minutes.
"Holly put you and your brother up for adoption and you went to the Gallagher family obviously and your brother went to the Weems family from upstate" Sam explained but Andy was still trying to process that he was a twin.
"Hey Andy how you doing, you still with us?" I asked him taking a step closer.
"Um…what was my brothers name?" he asked dropping his hands taking a breath.
"Here um…Anson Weems" Sam replied then looked at Andy to see if that name rang any bells but Andy shook his head. "He's got a local address"
"He lives here?" Andy asked shocked by that news as well.
"Let's get a look at him" Dean suddenly spoke up. "There's a picture coming over from the DMV right now" he grabbed the papers that had just printed through and walked back over to where we were flipping through them until he stopped at the photo of his license and stopped staring down at it before sharing a small look with Sam. "Hate to kick you while your freaked, take a look at that" he handed the photo to Andy and I was able to get a look at it myself and couldn't believe it, it was the nosy waiter at the diner we were at, we got back into the Impala to find this guy before he hurt someone else.
"Alright Andy, tell us everything you know about this guy" Sam asked him.
"Well I mean not much, Webber shows up one day like eight months ago acting like he's my best friend in the world, kind of weird like trying too hard you know" Andy replied.
"He must have known you guys are twins but I mean why'd he change his name why not just tell you the truth?" Dean replied.
"No idea" Andy replied shrugging.
"Aah!" Sam suddenly groaned putting his head back as he held his head.
"Sam?" Dean and I asked him at the same time but Sam just continued to yell out as his latest vision hit him hard.
"Sam…Sam!" Dean exclaimed laced with worry as he pulled the car over getting straight out as Sam started opening the door to get out but I was out faster than he was and at Sam's side steading him.
"Sam…hey, hey!" I said to get his attention just as Dean reached us too and put his hand on Sam's shoulder.
"The girl…from the diner, he's gonna kill her" he said coming out of it.
We all shared a look as Sam told us he was gonna make her jump of a dam bridge so once Sam assured Dean and I that he was okay we got back into the Impala and Dean drove to where we figured this was gonna happen pulling up a safe distance away getting out going to the boot as Dean unlocked it for weapons.
"You two should stay back" Sam told us and I looked up ready to argue.
"No arguments here" Dean replied giving me a look having seen I was gonna argue. "I've had my head screwed with enough for one day and Evie's not getting anywhere near this guy" I rolled my eyes about to remind him that Andy's mind control didn't seem to work on me either but chose not to given I didn't know what it meant and didn't want to make them worry.
"I'm coming with you" Andy suddenly spoke up having climbed out just as Sam had grabbed his gun and was getting ready to leave.
"Andy no" Sam argued.
"If its Tracy out there…then I'm coming" he protested staring Sam down.
"Okay" Sam finally agreed and they left.
"So what are we doing?" I asked turning back to Dean jumping when he suddenly pulled out the sniper rifle that lived in the very back of the trunk since we rarely ever had use for it. "Really?" I asked and he looked over with a huge smile he got whenever he got to play with the big guns.
"Stay here" he told me.
"Hey…no" I exclaimed grabbing his jacket.
"Yes" he argued glaring at me.
"No" I said back slowly like I was talking to a child.
"Evie just do as your told, your pregnant which means you are staying here willingly for the sake of our child or I will handcuff you to the steering wheel" he replied walking over to the drivers side opening the door nodding his head for me to get in. "I'm serious Evelyn" I narrowed my eyes at him using my full name.
"This is so unfair!" I exclaimed kicking one of the Impala tires ignoring his glare of protest at my abuse towards 'Baby' but I didn't care and went over sliding into the front seat.
"Stay" he said closing the door.
"Woof" I barked sarcastically seeing him smile a little before it fell when I glared at him.
"Be mad at me later, just stay safe for now" he remarked before taking off into the trees disappearing from view.
I stayed for a total of two minutes before I climbed out not caring the yelling match that was inevitable later but I just couldn't shake that something was going to go wrong, it always did so I wasn't staying put.
I speed walked in the direction I saw Dean disappear in looking around for any sign of him following some fresh footprints in the mud and thanked the heavens that my dad had taken me hunting, like actually deer hunting and taught me how to track stuff because when I finally found Dean with the barrel of the gun pressed to the bottom of his chin.
"Dean!" I exclaimed running towards him just as a gunshot rang out making me jump and stop in spot looking over at Dean expecting to see the worst but he was perfectly fine dropping the gun with a stunned look on his face. "Dean?" I asked slowly approaching and he turned to me. "Dean!" I snapped myself out of my shock and ran towards him dropping to my knees throwing my arms around his neck.
"What are you doing here?" he asked wrapping his around my waist.
"Saving your butt that's what I'm doing here" I let go moving back a bit. "Mind control?" I asked and he nodded just as we got the same thought as we recalled the gunshot that hadn't come from Dean's rifle. "Sam!" we stood up and ran back towards the Impala and drove down to the quarry seeing Sam was okay aside from a few bumps on the head.
Andy's brother was dead shot by Andy himself and the girl was terrified freaking out so I tried my best to calm her down while Dean called the authorities who came with crap ass response time because the sun was rising by the time they got here.
Sam was getting checked out by an EMT while Andy was standing further off to the side mind controlling the cops so that none of us got into trouble with the law since I was so not in the mood for that to avoid yet another county.
"Look at him, he's getting better at it" Sam pointed out as we watched Andy as he finished with the cops and started to walk towards us but slowed down as he looked at the girl but she avoided his gaze.
"Won't even look at me" he said once he reached us.
"Yeah she's pretty shaken up" Sam replied.
"No it's…it's different, this is uh…I never used my mind thing on her before last night, she's scared of me now" Andy argued and we had nothing to say since knowing this type of stuff wasn't for everyone, hell I don't even know I cope half the time.
"Andy, I hate to do this but we have to get out of here" Sam replied and we nodded. "Here I wrote down my cell, you don't have to be alone in this alright if anything comes up you call me up" he handed Andy a card and he nodded down at it before we started to leave.
"Wha…what, what am I supposed to do now?" Andy asked stopping us.
"You be good Andy" Dean replied and I rolled my eyes because we were dogs and if he kept treating people like they were I was gonna slap him. "Or we'll be back" I shook my head at him as we started walking again.
"Looks like I was right" Sam said once we were far enough away from Andy or anyone.
"About what?" I asked him.
"Andy" Sam replied and we turned towards him. "He's a killer after all"
"No he's a hero, he saved his girlfriend he saved my life" Dean argued.
"Bottom line last night he wasted somebody" I frowned shaking my head since dire circumstances required dire actions.
"He's not a foaming-at-the-mouth psycho, he was just…he was pushed into that" Dean continued to argue.
"Webber was pushed too in his own way, Max Miller was pushed, hell I was pushed by Jessica's death"
"What's your point?" Dean asked him once again stopping.
"Right circumstances everyone's capable of murder, everyone" Sam pushed his point across and I frowned looking up at Dean because what Sam said was true, I would murder for either one of them because aside my dad and now this baby they were all I have. "Maybe that's what the demon's doing, pushing us finding ways to break us"
"Sam we don't know what the demon wants, okay?" Dean replied. "Quit worrying about it" he hit Sam's shoulder.
"You know I heard you before Dean when Andy made you tell the truth, your just as scared of this as I am" Sam continued to argue.
"That was mind control, its like being roofied man it doesn't count" Dean replied and I couldn't help laugh a little. "No, I'm calling a do-over"
"What are you 7?" Sam asked him and I laughed again since they were both children.
"Doesn't matter, look we just gotta keep doing what were doing find that evil son of a bitch and kill it" Dean replied right as his phone rang.
"Yeah I guess" Sam replied hesitantly.
"Hello?" Dean said answering his phone as Sam climbed into the Impala. "Ellen, what's going on?" he asked and I looked up curious to what she wanted. "Yeah we'll be right there" I frowned but got into the back seat.
I managed to get some sleep while Dean drove to the Roadhouse walking in seeing it open and we took a seat at the bar like always as Ellen told Jo to grab another case of beer from the back and she started to argue but Ellen pulled the mother's 'do as I say' card and Jo went out the back.
"So you wanna tell me about this last hunt of yours?" she asked walking towards us.
"No, not really" Dean replied and I scoffed a small laugh out but Ellen turned to me and I made it seem like a cough since she always scared me as a kid as growing up she was like my surrogate mother. "No offense it's just kind of a family thing" he added as Ellen also glared at him.
"Not anymore, I got this stuff from Ash" she replied throwing a few papers down on the bar in front of us. "Andrew Gallagher's house burned down on his 6-month birthday just like your house, you think it was the demon both times it went after Gallagher's family"
"Yeah we think so" Sam replied.
"Sam" Dean warned so I elbowed his side because we could honestly get all the help we could and who knows what their dad had shared with her about this demon.
"Why?" Ellen asked Sam given he was the only one talking.
"None of your business" Dean snapped at her.
"Dean" I said snapping at him.
"You mind your tongue with me boy" Ellen warned turning to him. "This isn't just your war, this is war now something big and bad is coming and it's coming fast and their side holds all the cards, now at best all we got is us, together no secrets or half-truths here" she added and we all shared a look before Dean breathed out relenting so Sam turned back to Ellen.
"There are people out there, like Andy Gallagher, like me and um…we all have some kind of ability"
"Ability?" Ellen asked.
"Yeah, a psychic ability" Sam replied and Dean shook his head still not completely on board with telling people about Sam's visions. "Me I have um…visions, premonitions, I don't know it's different for everybody, the demon said he had plans for people like us"
"What kind of plans?" Ellen asked.
"We don't really know for sure"
"These people out there, these psychics they dangerous?" she asked him.
"No, not all of them" Dean replied looking over at Sam briefly.
"But some are, some are very dangerous" Sam added.
"Okay how many of them we looking at?" Ellen asked looking around at us.
"We've been able to track a clear pattern so far, they've all had house fires the night of the kids 6-month birthday" Dean replied.
"That's not true" Sam suddenly argued making us turn to him.
"What?" Dean and I asked him.
"Webber or Anson Weems, or whatever his name is I looked at his files and there was no house fire, there's nothing out of the ordinary"
"Which breaks pattern" Ellen added. "So if there's others like him there'd be nothing in the system, no way to track them all down"
"So who knows how many of them are really out there?" Dean added adding to the frustration of this damn demon.
"Jo, honey?" Ellen suddenly said given Jo had come back during all this.
"Yeah?" she replied.
"Better break out the whisky instead" she told her making me smile a little but also a little bummed that I couldn't drink any of it.
"Well since we're being honest, better tell you guys that I can't drink" I spoke up and Dean turned to me so I just gave him a look.
"What?" Ellen asked me.
"I can't drink because I'm pregnant" I replied and watched Ellen's and Jo's eyes widen before smile's erupted on their faces especially Jo who ran around and hugged me.
"Damn girl, just like you to get knocked up"
"Gee thanks Jo" she laughed.
"Just so were clear it's his right?" she asked nodding at Dean.
"Yes, it's mine" Dean said answering for me and I laughed going back to his side and he wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me to stand in front of him as Ellen poured a round of shots along with a club soda.
"Well we'll turn this into a toast to new life in this messed up world" I smiled as we all clinked our glasses before the swallowed back the shots as I took a sip of the club soda.
"So how far along?" Jo asked acting like a total girl right now.
"We uh…we actually don't know" I replied.
"How do you not know?" she argued.
"We haven't booked any appointments, I've only took one of those test strip things and the car accident kind of forced a doctors confirmation but that's kind of it they couldn't tell me how far along I was because it was still really early and we've been really busy-"
"Well that's no excuse Evelyn Robin Singer" Ellen cut in and I looked down feeling like a scolded child. "There's a clinic not far from here, you's can stay here the night in the extra cots and you'll be going tomorrow, you need to start taking care of yourself better"
"Okay, okay" I protested holding up my hands in surrender turning to look over my shoulder at Dean who was matching my scolded look.
"Honestly your just like your father" Ellen added making me laugh since I took that as a compliment given my dad was my hero since I was a little girl and I was actually silently wishing I was having a little girl because I wanted to see Dean with a little girl that saw him the way I saw my dad even though I knew he'd be a nightmare in her teens again just like my dad was but I wouldn't have it any other way.
A/N: Sorry about the lack of updates, life has just been so hectic as I started school again after the Christmas break so I might not be able to update as freqent as I had been but I will try as much as humanely possible to keep posting chapters. :).
