Jack walked away from Dean who seemed pissed for some reason. Ever since he got back from Eden, Dean was cold to Jack. Jack understood. He was a failure. He walked away not answering Dean's question where he was going. For once, he was going to ignore Dean.
Ignoring Dean's shouts he walked away. Fuck him. He learned that from Dean himself. He wanted to be alone. Walking away, then breaking into a jog, he ran till he was in front of a bus station. He wanted to be alone. No Sam, No Dean, no Cas. This was for him. Luckily he carried cash. Both Sam and Cas gave him a weekly allowance. Jack barely spent it, only buying nougat candy bars once in awhile. He decided to have one last trip. But where? He looked at the bus schedule. Arizona, New Mexico, Florida, New York, Nevada. Hmm. Las Vegas. Casinos, expensive bad food, cheap liquor. Girls. Why not? If he was going to die, might as well check off his checklist. He just wished he wasn't alone. He wanted to spend time with someone. He bought a ticket.
"Las Vegas."
"Fifty bucks one way or return fare eighty bucks." The bored agent says.
"One way."
"Here's your change."
"Thank you." Jack smiles. Vegas here he comes.
Claire Novak gets out of the taxi. She thought having Kaia back would be some grand romantic reunion. Nope. Kaia was only there to say goodbye. She was gone for over two years. The amount of time she spent in that alternative monster world changed her. She no longer had that scared wide eyed look, she was now "grown up." Her words. She announced to Jody, Donna and her friends she wanted to join the Army. She wanted to protect herself. She and Claire had a emotional goodbye. Claire missed her, but she understood why she left. She wasn't interested in being a hunter like Claire. Claire herself was starting to question her life. Other than Kaia, she was a virgin herself. She had no preference, why judge love. Male, female, doesn't matter. Just as long it wasn't an angel. She still hated them. She told Jody she wanted to take a break. No hunting, just a random trip.
As she walked inside, she couldn't believe her eyes. That was Lucifer's son, Jack Kline.
Jack was enjoying his favorite candy bar. Milky Way. Mmm. He also loved Three Musketeers, but those were hard to find. He usually went to the duty free shops to find them; along with ketchup chips. He wanted to save his money. He was already looking forward to gambling. Blackjack, Poker, Slots. Price is Right? Why not. He won two tickets to the Vegas show. Couples only. He just wished he had someone to go with.
The bus station announced that the bus to Vegas was now boarding. Jack stands in line with the other passengers. As expected, there was nothing but old ladies. He wouldn't care, but after what happened with Dean, he wanted to spend time with people (physically) his own age. Hearing a voice, he turns his head.
"Mind if I share a seat with you? I don't feel like sitting next to old lady smell.'' Claire says talking to Jack.
She met Jack once. It was when Sam, Dean and Cas brought Jack to meet Jody's daughters. Claire liked Jack, he was sweet. When she heard of Jack's birth, she instantly hated him. The bastard was Lucifer's son. But after a few days, her and her friends fell in love with the young nephilm. Not in a romantic way, but in a protective way, even Claire. She and Jack and her friends had so much fun playing silly board games with Jack. He sucked. But she couldn't help but smile everytime Jack squealed winning. If this was another life, she would ask Jack in a date. But back then, she was obsessed with finding Kaia's killer. But Jack and her were single now. Why not? He was half human. She was 99.99% sure Jack was a virgin. There was tons of brothels in Carson City. Pay a professional to seduce Jack.
"Sure. I'll love the company. I'm Jack by the way."
"Claire. Now that that pesky re-introduction is out of the way, let's plan."
"You let Jack go?!" Sam asks Dean angrily. Dean just finished telling Sam and Castiel.
"He basically told me to fuck off." Dean says pouring a drink. Who cares? That bastard is out of their hair.
"Jack is a child. Chuck is out there." Castiel tells Dean. Dean says nothing. He's no child. He is a monster.
Sam stares at Dean fists closed. He was ready to punch Dean. That was his son. He was family. He angrily stormed out. He was taking the Impala. Dean could fuck off.
Cas stares at Dean with disappointment. He follows Sam.
Dean just pours another drink.
Jack was in awe of the lights. Same with Claire. She been to Vegas a few times, but never for fun. It was always business. She was excited to go be in The Price is Right. She was a huge fan. Since she "worked" nights, hunting, she watched it every weekday morning. Her personal favorites was the specials. The Vegas special had great prizes. A silver Mercedes Roadster was rumored to be one of the prizes. Same with a trip to Bora Bora. She needed a vacation. She looked at Jack. She wouldn't mind vacationing with him to the Caribbean. Especially for a romantic vacation. She blushed when she saw Jack looking at her.
Jack was wondering why Claire was looking at him. Was there something on his face? Self consciously, he wipes his face.
Claire smiles at his innocence. If she was going to do this, she wanted to take things slow.
