Hi everyone. I hope you are enjoying the story as much as I am writing it. Please feel free to leave comments or reviews.
Dean was up making coffee and breakfast. He knew that soon they would have a whole house full of people. His dad had told him everything last night. He couldn't believe that there were worst evils out in the world besides the people he had to deal with in Kansas City. He was so thankful that Jo and Ellen were coming over. He didn't trust people he didn't know. You just never know what type of people they could be. He knew that his dad said he had known Mary Winchester and all that, but that still didn't mean that he wanted these people in his house. He heard the back door and knew that Jo and Ellen were here. "Hey guys," giving Ellen a hug. Just as he turned around to hug Jo, she grabbed him and gave him a kiss. He loved the fact that they were finally a couple. He also knew that his dad and her mom approved. Neither one of them knew that their parents had always hoped they would end up together. "Well good morning sweetheart." Dean said with love in his eyes.
"Dean, how about you and Jo go take a walk. I will finish dinner." Ellen said to them. She knew that Dean was extremely apprehensive about this morning. She didn't have to tell Jo about the things that went bump in the night. Her daughter already knew about that. She lost her husband to hunting. Jo also knew that Mary Winchester was an extremely old friend of her mom's. Ellen couldn't wait to see Mary. She hadn't seen Mary since she married John. It had been such a great day for her. That didn't mean that Ellen wasn't worried for her. She had been afraid that although Mary was getting out of the hunting business that she would not be able to be away from it for long. She was surprised to see that it had been almost 40 years since she left the business. Bobby had filled her in on what was going on with Sam. So since they were heading in, she knew that Bobby had been watching for any signs of trouble headed for Sioux Falls. With what was happening, she knew that they were going to have to strap back on the hunting boots and train Dean, Jo, Sam and John. She just hoped it wouldn't be too hard. She was also worried about Dean. The boy loved being a cop, but she knew that he would have a hard decision to make. The door bell sounded, breaking Ellen out of her thoughts. "I'll get it Ellen, you just keep on what you are doing." Ellen heard Bobby yell.
Bobby opened his door. Thankfully he had been able to finish his shower and dress so that he could greet the guests that were standing before him. "Mary! So great to see you. Come on in." He physically saw that his friend was ok, but he knew that emotionally she wasn't. Neither were her husband and her son. "Hi you must be John and Sam, I am Bobby Singer. Please make yourselves at home." Just then he heard Dean come in with Jo. "Dean, please come in here and help Sam with the bags. Please show them to the guest rooms." He saw the look on his sons face. He knew that Dean didn't trust these people and he definitely didn't look comfortable, but knew his son would do as he was told. Before they went upstairs, he watched his son introduce himself to everyone.
"So this is where your mom and dad will be staying. If you want to just leave their bags there, we can head back down stairs. The basement is my room and so you will be staying down there with me." Dean said to Sam. There was something about Sam that was pulling at him. It was a feeling he had never had before. Like a missing part of himself just showed up. "Uh, if you don't want to stay down in my room, I am sure that we could arrange something else." Dean said awkwardly. He knew something wasn't right, but he just couldn't put his finger on it. He wondered if Sam was feeling the same way.
"Actually, that would be awesome," Sam replied smiling. He too had felt that pull between the two of them. He also didn't understand what the hell was happening. But the difference between him and Dean was the fact that so much weird stuff had been happening to him, that he didn't over analyze everything. As they headed back downstairs, he could hear the talking and laughter coming from the kitchen, but they didn't have to go to the kitchen to get to Dean's room. As the got down there, he was totally amazed by the size of Dean's room. It was almost like having a small apartment down here. "Wow, this is a huge room." "I know. My parents totally spoiled me." Dean said laughing. Sam also started laughing. It seemed as though they were getting a little more comfortable around each other. After Sam set his bags down, both boys headed back upstairs.
"Wow, I simply can't believe how long it has been! You look amazing Ellen. I am so sorry about your husband." Mary said to Ellen. She knew it had been forever but she it felt like there had been no time passed between them. At that point she saw her son and Dean come through the door. She got a weird feeling about Dean. It wasn't bad, it was just something she couldn't quite put her finger on. She also knew a little sadly that had she had her first son, that her Dean would be the same age as the Bobby's Dean. She was glad to see that the boys had relaxed around each other. She had been worried about how those two would have acted around each other. She knew that while her son was always friendly and able to make friends, with everything that had been happening with him, that he was a little more withdrawn.
John just looked around at everyone. He was so worried. He had met Ellen before, and had heard about Bobby, but he was afraid that he might now fit in with them. They knew all about hunting and he had known nothing before two nights ago. He didn't want them thinking that he couldn't protect his family. Once he had gotten there though, he was totally relaxed. "Dean, your dad told me that the black '67 Impala was your car and that you and he had built it from the ground up." He could see that the young man relaxed and smiled at him.
"Yes sir, we sure did. Dad here had searched everywhere for her, and when he found baby, we worked on her forever to get her running right." Dean could deal with this kind of talk. He loved his car and was so glad that everyone was just sitting around being normal and not talking about all the supernatural things. He was thinking that when breakfast was done, that he would take Sam and Jo and go hit a bar. He knew that the "grown-ups" were going to need some time to talk about everything. He definitely wanted to take time to get to know more about Sam and these abilities he had. He also hoped that by getting away from the others, that Sam would be a little more comfortable talking. If Sam was feeling anything like he was then he knew this guy was totally overwhelmed. Jo squeezed his leg and he knew that she was trying to comfort him, but could tell she too was overwhelmed with everything. It made him feel like a little kid all over again. He wished his mom was here. She would know how to calm him down.
After breakfast was done, Dean and Sam loaded up in his Impala and headed out. Jo couldn't go with them because she had a shift at the diner. Even though her mom said she could have the day off, she didn't want to take that day. She felt like she needed some normalcy right now. She just wanted a bit of time to herself before she started training for whatever fight was coming their way. She was so glad that Dean knew what was really out there. She had never been able to tell her mom that she wanted to become a hunter. She was afraid of what her mom might think. Now that all of this was happening, she had more than enough of a reason to be able to tell Ellen. It wasn't going to be easy, but if Dean was able to pick up on everything, maybe the two of them could go out on the road together.
