Oh, pics on the main wall for Lilitu, if you want to check them.
So, is Dianna has the Winchester gene? What Lilitu wants? And what about Eve and Dean? Let's see, enjoy! :D
We went back to Cassie's house, and wow, it was a mess. Both her and the house.
Once we stepped inside we saw how the house looked, it was like there was a hurricane, stuff thrown all over, broken, and there was barely a place for Cassie to sit or for us to walk. And Cassie herself, she was a wreck, she was still in her sleepwear sitting on the couch with Dianna in her lap, and both of them were sobbing.
Cassie was hugging her daughter like there was no tomorrow, and I couldn't blame her, plus we don't really know much about tomorrow. Seeing them like that reminded me of my first hunt with my dad, when that witch tried to hurt me and my dad-the calm one-freaked out killing her at the moment, then he hugged me like that for over half an hour just to make sure I was ok, and remembering that made me tear.
"What happened?" Dean asked sitting next to Cassie trying to calm her down.
Cassie didn't talk looking at Dean with blurry eyes hugging Dianna tighter to her. She looked heartbreaking.
I knelt down in front of her. "Give me the girl, I will put her in her bed, she will be fine, I'll make sure!" I said and reached for Dianna. But Cassie was one edge; she growled moving my hand away.
"That all happened because of you!" Cassie snapped angrily. "She came here and hurt us, hurt my daughter because she wanted you, it's all because of you! Stay away from me and my daughter!" She said hysterically hugging her daughter tightly to her.
I was bummed; I couldn't say anything at all, tears threatening to run freely down my cheeks.
"Cassie, Eve has nothing to do with this, calm down!" Dean told her trying to calm her down a little, but she snapped glaring at him.
"She does," she growled. "Look," Cassie said showing Dean and me her daughter's arm, there was bloody nasty wounds all over it, it looked like an animal was slashing the poor girl's arm. "And that's all over her body," Cassie sobbed. "I saw the woman this time, she didn't appear in a dream, she was here, and she said she was here for you Eve!"
I heard that and felt all the hell's guilt on my shoulders, not only I was the reason of the kid's dreams, but also I was the reason she got all those nasty cuts on her body. I stood up walking away from Cassie, I had to go out and clear my mind. I thought when I came here that Lilitu won't hurt them anymore because she had me now, but I was wrong, getting me was something and having fun by turning people's lives into misery was something else.
"Where are you going Eve? It's cold outside!" Sam said stopping me from going out. I didn't even noticed Sam since we got into the house.
"Sorry, but I can't stay here, I need some air!" I told him trying to break free from his iron grip. "Please Sam!" he gave me the eyes, his famous puppy eyes; then let out a huff loosing his grip on my shoulders.
I got out of the house standing in the dark, feeling the cold freezing dawn air hitting my face making my hair dance crazy. Why didn't I tie my hair? I pulled the leather jacket I was wearing tighter around my body seeking for warmth, I tried to think clearly of anyway to help Cassie and her daughter, but I just couldn't, I couldn't even think at all. We were totally screwed in this, Lilitu was strong, and I knew I couldn't face her now and win, maybe I'd die trying, and even with my powers, I wasn't that strong if I was compared with a few hundred years demonic vampire.
I snapped feeling pair of arms wrapping around me. "Woah, easy, it's me!" I heard Dean saying. I didn't see him coming out from the house as I was giving it my back. "I'm sorry about what Cassie did inside, she is just," Dean started but I cut him off.
"I understand, she is just freaking out over her kid, she didn't mean to, or even if she did, she has all the right to, it's my fault after all!" I said and I didn't notice but now, I was shaking, I felt Dean's arms getting tighter around me, and I couldn't help but rest my head on his shoulder. I felt him resting his chin on my shoulder pressing his cheek against mine, I felt more safe, and warm.
"It's not your fault," Dean said after a moment of silence. "And don't interrupt me this time," he warned sounding serious. "We were drawn here for a reason, you! Yeah we know that, but all we know that the bitch wants you dead too, she got you here to make you suffer and then kill you," he was interrupted with my chuckles. "What the hell are you laughing at?" he asked confused.
"I'm laughing at how comforting your talk is; lots of killing and all!" I told him in a sarcastic laugh. "I know all of this Dean. I do. But I also know that she is hurting innocent people because of me," I said turning around to face him. "The only reason Cassie is stuck in the middle with us, that she knew you years back, that's not fair. And even if her daughter is yours; that is not fair!"
"Since when any of this was fair?" Dean said bitterly. "My daughter or not, it's never fair." He sighed.
"So, you really think she is your daughter?" I asked him, I had to, the subject was killing me and..., and I just had to ask.
"I don't know, and I didn't ask Cassie, but," Dean paused but I knew what he wanted to say. He knew that there was a great possibility that Dianna was his, and as much as that was scary for a person to know that they he had a daughter he never heard of, it was a nice dream for Dean after his crappy life to have something like that, a family.
I looked into his beautiful green eyes for a moment before leaning to press a soft kiss to his lips, and when I pulled back I saw his smirk. "If it turned out she is yours, I'll let you be with your family, I won't be a bitch; you deserve this." I told him trying not to cry.
"I don't want to lose you," Dean said brushing my cheek with his cold fingers.
"I don't want to lose you either Dean, but I can't get between a man and his family, even if I'm deeply in love with that man, and I probably will be torn apart." I said feeling now the tears running from my eyes. Dean looked into my eyes wiping the tears, and then he leaned to kiss me, I through myself into this kiss deepening it, I missed Dean, and there was a chance I won't kiss him again, even not see him again. I didn't want this kiss to be over.
I saw something clicking with the side of my eyes, it made me snap pulling away from our kiss. "What's going on?" Dean asked confused. I couldn't speak pointing at what I saw. Dianna's room was glowing, not a normal light was turned on there, no, it was something else, and I knew it was the time for me and my rival to meet, it was the time for all of this to end even if it meant me dying, after all if I lost Dean, I have nothing else to live for.
"She is here!" I said pulling away from Dean; I started to move towards the house but his hands on my arm pulled me back.
"You can't go alone, you will die!" Dean yelled seeing how eager I was to get inside.
"I need to go; she is here for me Dean. I can feel it!" I said pulling my arm from his hands and with no further talk, I ran towards the house, I could hear Dean's calls after me knowing that he must have ran after me, but all I cared about was one thing. Even when I burst into the house running upstairs, I didn't care for Sam's calls; I kept my head focused on one thing and one thing only.
...
I was blinded by the burning light in the room when I got in. And even I didn't see it; I heard the door getting locked behind me once I got into Dianna's room. And seconds after I heard the hard knocks and shouts outside of the room, Sam and Dean's shouts and knocks.
"I thought vampires don't love the shiny sparkly lights!" I mocked; my hands were still on my eyes trying so hard to keep the blindness away.
I heard her cruel cold laughs. "Well, looks like someone didn't watch Twilight!" Lilitu said sarcastically. The lights faded back to normal. "I don't recommend you to watch it, unless you want to die of boredom." She said.
I looked at her for the first time, and I thought she won't get any creeper, well, I was wrong. The last time she looked like any of the classic Anne Rice vampire queen, but this time she looked like a spoiled Gothic chick, she was wearing a weird outfit, though I was sure it was an original thing, it looked ugly and scary on her. It was all black and deep blue and it was contrasted with her pale super white skin and her red-orange hair, I didn't notice that she changed her meat suit at first, but she did. She was in another girl's body now; still, she picked a red head, blue eyes prettier girl. The bitch was specific.
"Let's cut it out Red," I started but she interrupted me.
"Eve, Eve, Eve! Don't be rude, you know I can snap your neck with a blink!" she said moving closer to me.
"No sweetheart, you can't." I snarled glaring at her, she was still moving closer to me.
"Well," Lilitu stopped. "I can, but I won't!" she said moving again but faster, one second she was half way trough the room, and the second after she was in front of me. She leaned down and she smelled me. "So, it was true, you're still a virgin!" she said with a smirk.
"Not any of your damn business." I snapped, I meant to snap but it came out shaky, I was standing in front of a strong demon, of course I was scared.
"It is, because as long as you're still pure, my ass is safe. Once you release your powers, he will go for you, and I probably will be killed! See Eve, it is my damn business after all." Lilitu told me looking angry. "See Eve, you're Adam's first choice, and even with everything I did for the bastard, he still wants you, and once he reaches the age that enable's him to go after you, he will, and he will get you! And me, I will go back to hell, or worse! Be your servant!" she said getting angrier making me afraid, she was mad at Adam because he wants me, and she couldn't kill Adam, so she probably was going to kill me.
"Look, he won't get me, he is all yours. Have fun!" I mocked, sometimes my mouth works on its own, and probably I was going to be killed 'cause of it now too.
"You think this is funny?" she growled.
"No, when I'm supposed to be a demon's bitch, it's not funny Red!" I snapped. "And could you please step away, I think you're old enough to know what personal space is!" I mocked, again being stupid, but she was so close and it was weird.
"Ouch Eve, I thought we had something!" Lilitu said pretending to be hurt, the bitch's hand was on my body now, and it felt like a snake was crawling on me. She brushed my hair getting closer to me, I was getting nervous; I thought she was going to bite me again. "Oh, that's a good skill; I can't get in your mind now. It was wide open the last time." She said looking at me with her dead blue eyes. "Mentioning last time," Lilitu smirked, her hand on my chest, on my breast where she bit me last time over the heart. "How is the bite marks now?" I glared at her angrily; the bitch was amused pissing me off. "If it's a consolation, you tasted good!"
"Why the hell are you here if it's not for killing me? Just cut off all the foreplay please!" I said getting sick of all the theatrical acts; we are not in 1830 anymore.
"I heard that, and 1830 was a good year!" Lilitu said backing off, and in a blink of an eye she was leaning against the wall across the room. "But you're right, I don't have time for this, Adam is coming anytime now, and he is working my fucking ass off, and I was sticking here for you for almost a week now."
"Did anyone tell you that you talk too much?" I huffed making her smirk.
"Yeah, see, a lesson, you don't need fangs to kill!" she said and I rolled my eyes. "Anyway, I'm here to offer you a deal!" Lilitu said shocking me.
"A what? And who said I deal with demons?" I said confused.
"I thought you're smarter than that," She said with an evil smirk. "Why do you think you're here? And who do you think made all that for you?"
"Seriously, stop with that, and talk straight!" I said wishing that she would kill me, I couldn't handle another word.
"That was Adam's idea, to drawl you and Dean here." Lilitu told me. "Because you're stupid, you broke up with the love of your life, the real love or whatever you call it. And Adam felt it, you know the bond you two have, he knew that you and your handsome boyfriend broke up, so, he made this whole thing!" she said enjoying my confusion; I wished I had a stake to stab her in the heart.
"Again, Eve with the violent mind! You can't kill me with that stake, I'm a demon." She said simply. "Who do you think made Cassie to go adopt this green eyed kid, who brought this exact girl in her way to remind her of Dean, and come on, how do you think Cassie got Dean's number after all those years, and why now, don't you think if she had his kid she would have called him much earlier than that?" Lilitu told me, and to be honest, as much as I was relieved, I was confused.
"Why are you telling me this? Aren't you Adam's bitch now? Why?" I snapped.
"One day I will cut this lovely tongue of yours." She growled. "And yes, I still work with him, just improvising a little. He wants you and Dean to break apart so it will be easier to get to you; you're weaker without your stud! Even Adam knows that! You shouldn't have broke up with him in the first place, plus, Dean Winchester is a catch." Lilitu said with a smirk.
"Seriously?" I huffed. "So, you're saying that," I started but she interrupted.
"I said you're stupid, yeah!" Lilitu said. "Leave Dean, and Adam will get to you without doing much effort. I don't know if you know that or not, but you belong to one of two men, Dean or Adam, it's like the hell and heaven thing. You want to stay human and all, pick Dean! See, simple!" she said like she was talking to a baby. "I guess I'm done here!"
"Woah, wait. Why? You forgot that? Why you're doing this wanting me to be with Dean?" I asked her eagerly.
"Because I'm the one who will get to be the queen not you, I waited for this for centuries, and the things I did. I won't let you take it all from me; I will make sure of that!" She promised; more threat than a promise but, "I don't care about you, not really, I just want my position and next time you get closer to Adam, I will kill you, that's the deal."
"Next time I'll kill you Lilitu!" I said before she left. She smirked.
"Well sweetheart, I'm gonna kill you anyway, so!" Lilitu shrugged and before I could say anything she disappeared.
...
"Hey guys!" I smiled walking into the living room where Sam, Dean and Cassie were.
"Thank god!" Dean said walking to me taking me in his arms.
"We tried everything to get to you but nothing worked." Sam told me.
"I know, she did it on purpose, no one could have entered the room or get out." I told him breaking away from Dean's hold. I walked to Cassie and sat next to her.
"I'm sorry about," She started but I cut her off.
"Don't," I said. "I'm the one who should say she is sorry, for putting you and your girl into this, I'm sorry. But I promise, no one will hurt you again, she got what she came here for."
"Why don't I like the sound of that?" Sam asked, worried. I glared at him to stop talking.
"We will talk later Sammy!" I said rolling my eyes at him. Dean was standing looking at me worry in his eyes, I gave him a light smile and he returned it with a nervous one.
It was a long day, and it didn't finish till we called both Castiel and Arial to help with the mess. I told them what happened with me and Lilitu and though they didn't like the part where she said she was going to kill me, they were ok with the rest. They said it was better to know at least one way to keep me safe, for now.
After the little chat, we had to help Cassie and her kid. The angels wiped Dianna's memory of all the horrible things that happened to her, and they did the same to Cassie too, but not all of her memories like the kid, they took the part that will turn her into a freak. Then I healed the little girl's wounds. All that and it was only 10am, that was a day started so early, and now, it was the time to go.
...
And in the end when life has got you down
You've got someone here that you can wrap your arms around
..
So hold on to me tight
Hold on to me tonight
We are stronger here together
Than we could ever be alone
So hold on to me
Don't you ever let me go
Hold On, by Michael Buble'
...
I was at my room, getting my stuff ready to go back to Bobby's. I had no idea what to do with Dean though, but I knew that sooner or later we will have to talk.
"And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders." I started humming this song; I had no idea why this exact song, but it was stuck in my mind right now. "For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool. By making his world a little colder." I bet I looked weird and crazy, running and dancing around my room singing 'Hey Jude'. "Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better." Mostly, that I wasn't singing it in order, I hope The Beatles will forgive me.
"You totally ruined the song!" I heard Dean say making me startle. "You left the door open, again!" he said in apologetic tone.
"Yeah, I got used to get into the room first and you or Sam comes to shut the door." I told him with a smile. "And sorry about the song, songs' cop!" I teased.
"That song is kinda special to me, my mum used to sing it to me when she was alive!" Dean said with a sad smile. "It was her favorite Beatles' song!"
"That explains why my dad used to sing it too, all the time!" I smiled, remembering what we have been told about my dad and Mary.
"Yeah, which is still awkward." Dean said sarcastically. I nodded in agreement.
"I assume you came here for a reason?" I said walking towards him.
"Yep, smart!" He teased with a little smirk. "We need to talk!" Dean said and without giving me a chance to say anything, he grabbed my hand walking me outside of the room.
We stopped next to Dean's precious car; I looked up staring in his eyes. "I'm sorry, for breaking up with you. You know I'm not a good decision maker when I'm mad and all freaked out!" I said fast holding his hands.
"So, it was a break up?" Dean teased.
"Dude, I said sorry and yeah I was wrong, but I wanted to get you away from the crossfire Dean," I said looking at the ground, I felt stupid. "The bitch told me last night that Adam got the vibe and he made this whole Cassie thing to get you out of the way, if Lilitu didn't tell me about all of this, you'd have been with Cassie now!" I sighed. Dean chuckled.
"See, even the demons know that we are stronger together, looks like you're the only thickhead babe!" He teased making me give him a little slap.
"Don't joke about this; I was suffering not being with you!" I pouted leaning against the Impala.
"That makes two of us!" Dean said leaning next to me wrapping his arm around my waist.
"But," I started. "There was another reason why I tried to stay away from you Dean," I told him and he looked into my eyes with his piercing green ones. "I know you; I spent 5 years of my life watching you. Being your girlfriend is hard Dean, you have no idea how many girls I have to keep up to, Cassie here, Anna, Lisa," I sighed trying to keep the tears inside. "And, and I can't give you,"
"You forgot one important thing Eve," Dean interrupted. "The difference between you and all those women, that I love you!" he told me, and even though I've heard him say it before, but every time was like the first time, my heart skipped a few beats when he said it. "And I know you love me too, right?" he smirked.
"Duh, you idiot!" I said giving him a playfully nudge, resting my head on his shoulder.
"So romantic, you're a true catch!" Dean teased. "And I guess you know I can handle it, I saved the world few times Sweetheart!" He said proudly.
"Yeah, yeah, brag!" I laughed pulling away a little. "Dean," I called. "She said Adam is coming anytime soon, it's almost the time for him to rise!"
Dean pulled me gently into his arms. "Well, sooner or later he was coming," he said hugging me tightly. "But we will stick together and fight, as we always did. I'm not leaving your side Eve, whatever it takes. I promise!" Dean told me and kissed my head.
"I know, and I trust you too. I just don't want you to get hurt!" I said, and I felt Dean's hand under my chin making me look up, he pressed a soft kiss on my lips.
"As long as we are together, I'm going to be okay!" he said smiling at me.
I leaned up to give him light kiss, but he grabbed me deepening it. "Wow, that was good, I missed it!" I chuckled and gave him a soft kiss, then buried my head in his chest. "I learned my lesson Dean, I'm not going anywhere! We're stronger together!" I said feeling his arms wrapping around me, keeping me warm and safe.
...
There's so many dreams that we have given up
Take a look at all we've got
