The Stories of Jo Harvelle
Terminal Velocity-Chapter 5
The midnight oil was burning Jo and Sam had finished up with the research. After a few phone calls, Sam put his phone down and looked at Jo. It's like we thought, the knife we need no one has. Our only option is to work the spell. Jo swallowed hard she remembered the last time she and Sam had done magic. She still had Dean's name etched in her back because of it. Sam knew what Jo was thinking. Sam told Jo maybe we should just let Castiel handle this one. Jo nodded her head in agreement. I think it's for the best.
Jo called for Castiel and they waited. It was a few hours before he showed. But to Jo and Sam's horror he was covered in blood and collapsed on the floor. Sam rolled him over to check his wounds. He had been cut up pretty bad. Jo looked at Sam and asked why isn't he healing? Sam frowning answered I think it's because he disobeyed. He had told us that a lot of his power was cut off when he left Heaven. Jo got and looked down at Sam. Alright get his coat and shirt off so we can take care of the wounds. Jo came back with a medical bag and started cleaning the wounds. Jo was relieved none of the wounds would be fatal. Sam put Castiel on the bed in the back room.
Sam was washing his hands when Jo came out of the room. He turned to look at Jo. I need to go after the supplies we need, it will take about an hour and a half. Sam's eyes where on the bedroom as he grabbed his jacket. Jo put her hand on Sam's arm as he was walking out of the room. He turned to her, Jo stood on the tips of her toes to reach up and give him a hug and whispered be careful. Sam hugged Jo back, he loved the soft fragrance of her hair. When Sam started to release her, she kissed him. Jo uncertain of how Sam would respond waited. It only took a second, Sam groaned and kissed Jo like he would never see her again. Jo shivered at the raw emotion she felt, being in Sam's arms felt so wonderful. Sam's body was reacting and it won't be long before he couldn't stop, so he pulled away to look into Jo's eyes. Sam told Jo this isn't over by a long shot when we finish this job you and I are going to talk. Jo smiled but didn't say anything, she put her hand over his heart. After a few seconds Sam turned away and got into the car.
It took Jo a minute to realize what she had just done. She took and unsteady breath, it hadn't been part of the plan but she didn't regret it. The warmth from Sam's lips were still on her. She picked up her jacket and put it on when she heard moment. She turned to look at Castiel standing behind her. Anger was pouring off of him. You are playing a very dangerous game Joanna, Castiel said. Jo stood up straight, I'm not playing any games. You're lying, Castiel said. Jo looked at Castiel and told him he should go lay down before you pass out. Jo walked out to the truck, she went through her weapons and pulled a a purple cloth and unwrapped it. The dagger she needed to kill the warlock glinted against the fading moonlight.
She put it on the seat next to her and drove to the "Mustang". This was her case, she would finish this and no one else would get hurt for helping her. In the end Sam would understand.
