Chapter 4- Pour Some Sugar On Me
I woke up all head spinning and confused. Damn i fainted again, i need to drink more hard liquor and not get so faint hearted all the time! Shifting in the bed i felt a dent the left side of me, Dean was there fast asleep had i been out that long that I've missed a day? Shrugging to myself i felt disgusting and wondered off to the shower. I spent the next half an hour scrubbing myself clean and making myself a bit more human. I did my make up and painted my nails an emerald green color that was hidden in the bottom of my bag. I was thinking constantly about everything that was happening to me, i was on the run from demons with two brothers and an angel who knew about me than he seemed to let on. Leaving the bathroom, Dean was sat up on the bed flicking through the channels on the small TV and eating the pie i stole.
"That good?" I asked him, plopping myself down on the end of the bed towel drying my hair.
"Hmm- mm" He responded to me, mouth full of food looking like a squirrel. "Yeah, sweetheart! you know what a man likes!" He swallowed the last mouthful and grinned his childish grin at me, rolled my eyes in response, smiling.
"Where's Sam?" i asked Dean, looking into the small living room area,
"Not sure, he left about half an hour ago, probably found a library, do some research, gone for a run." Dean shrugged back
"And what time is it?" I asked innocently,
"Jesus woman its like twenty questions with you! Its 7, in the evening, you were out for sometime, Cas didn't go into too much detail about what happened but i got the jist, you had some sort of spas attack, shot off and ran into demons, good job Cas has tabs on you otherwise you'd be in trouble. I did hear you mumble my name in your sleep though." He waggled his eyebrows at me and i threw my towel at him, he laughed and continued,
"You needed to rest, its been a tough 2 days for you and you cant just jump into this. We can show you a few things although i'm not keen on letting you get hurt again." He stopped and the look on his face was so intense, "Not tonight though, were going out, funds low, gotta hustle some pool, sound good?" he reached down the side of the bed and pulled his boots on.
"Sounds very good, i need a drink and i bet i can kick your ass at pool." I laughed as i walked off to find my own boots and i swear i could hear him mutter under his breath.
We walked into a bar not far from the motel and Dean did a quick demon sweep while i ordered drinks.
"All clear." He muttered into my ear making me jump.
"Dammit Dean!" I said to thin air as he had already wondered off to the pool table, i watched as he pretended to be drunk and threatened the guys for a game. Hurrying over there thinking he was going to make a complete ass of himself he grabbed me round the waist and pulled me close.
"I wass sayingg to these men they cant beat us babe, $500 on the table double or nothhing." Dean said proudly and fake slurring, i cottoned on straight away.
"Yeaah we soooo can!" i slurred back, hoping my drunk impression was enough to convince them all, it worked. We were $1000 richer by the time the so called tough guys grabbed their coats and mumbled grumpily out the door.
"Hey that was fun!" I said to Dean as he racked up the table agan for another game, the bar was clearing out slowly it only being 8 in the evening.
"Hey, i got a fun game, see that waitress over there?" I said to him, pointing out a young run down looking woman with mousy hair,
"She's working here to support her gambling addiction and oh the boss is banging her, she thinks shes pregnant but doesn't know if her husbands or the bosses, her husband had the snip! Ha fancy that!" I laughed but Dean was looking at me like he'd never seen me before.
"Candy, how did you know all of that?" I was a little shocked at his response and his attitude towards me, i shock it off.
"I guess i can just read people really well, so i get little thought bubbles my way." Smiling my best smile at him I added,
"Come on lets play." He relaxed as i put my hand on his arm.
"That's two for me and oh wait, non for you Mr hot shot i'm so good at pool Winchester!" I giggled at Dean who had a face like thunder after i'd beaten him at the second game, still laughing at myself, i carried on winding him up, "And i thought you were meant to be reaaaalllllly good!"
We'd drank a fair bit by now and were onto tequila shots every time we potted a ball. I sauntered around the table were Dean was stood pouting near the shots and lent across him to get one, he took a long breath as i did so, showing just a little cleavage.
"You gotta be kidding me girl, you're actually killing me here." Dean leaned into me, very close to touching.
"I'm not that kind of girl anymore Dean," I looked up at him giving him a dark, knowing look. There was an energy around us again, similar to the feeling had this morning but it didn't make me want to pass out this time, whether it was the alcohol or just being near him. I needed answers so desperately but not tonight, this is what we needed fun and excitement. Over whelmed by a sudden urge to touch him i lent my own cheek against his.
"Come on, lets see if i can make it 3 games i win." I moved my cheek away and looked him in the eyes, it felt wrong to be away from him. In that moment he grabbed my hand and put it to his chest.
"Something in here feels right when you're near me Candy, i cant explain it. that night i first met you i just wanted to protect you, Cas is bound to know something but lets just enjoy this tonight, i haven't been this carefree in years." He pulled my hand up to his lips and kissed it lightly before shifting around me to set up the next game that was almost forgotten. I remembered i had a shot in my hand so i drank it and Dean looked at me jokingly shocked.
"For luck!" I said innocently before grabbing the cue out of his hands and hitting the white ball.
2 hours later we were the only people left in the bar, still drinking and in no hurry to leave, it was only after 10 and we wanted a full night of fun. the staff were looking tiredly over too us constantly checking the time and sighing, hoping we'd get the hint and leave.
"Not likely," I muttered to Dean who was swaying ever so slightly near the jukebox holing onto a cue for support.
"Say what now?" he replied, looking over to me, i hushed him needing to try something. i wondered over to were the staff had congregated and took the managers hand in mine. Looking him dead in the eye, i said.
"Leave the keys with us, there will be money in the cashier tomorrow, go home." He smiled very dazed and handed me the keys, i jiggled them behind my back and Dean laughed. The staff left and i walked purposefully back over to Dean, standing upright now, just.
"How'd you do that?" He asked me.
"Simple mind trick, i think, I've never done that before," Taking a look at his face i added, "No i never have and will never do it to you." He let out the breath he didn't know he was holding.
"Good to know, now come on need some music." He had a huge boyish grin on his face as he pressed play on the juke box and my favorite Def Leppard song started to play, giggling drunkenly i climbed up onto the pool table, grabbing the bottle of whiskey i'd snuck back from the bar and pulling at Dean's hand to join me, he did and we danced drunkenly to the song laughing and getting closer to each other. It was the most fun i think either one of us has had and as the song ended i slipped backwards on a rouge red ball and went flying backwards of the pool table, landing on my back hiccuping with laughter. Deans head poked over the top and i couldn't help being so over whelmed with laughter i didn't realize how ridiculous i must have looked and between us both we didn't care one bit.
4 am i think it was when we eventually called it a night and stumbled back to the motel. We shushed each other and giggled as we entered the room were Sam was asleep on the couch , i guess he got bored of waiting up for us so i grabbed the old blanket that was thrown over the back and put it over him , Dean had already crept past him and into the bedroom whiskey bottle in hand i followed and collapsed next to him on the bed. Dean was face down so decided to undress in the room, he moved so quickly when i was in my underwear i shrieked loudly, hoping i hadn't woken Sam, and was pulled on top of Dean. His eyes did most of the talking and i ducked my head into his neck, talking into his ear.
"Dont get any idea's you, we need to figure this out ok?" I hugged him really tight and he returned it before loosening his grip and breathing heavily, he'd fallen asleep. I got up slowly and started pulling his boots off in which Dean started giggling at me, i shushed him again and climbed into bed, pulling the covers over us facing the other way. I felt his arm slide around my waist and he buried his face into my hair and shoulder, i shifted back into him so his mouth was near my ear and before i drifted off into a drunken sleep he whispered my name.
