Chapter 2 - Waking in a Wonder-land

Dean awoke groggy and slowly lifted his head to look around the darkened room, he was barely aware of his surroundings and his memory for the moment was non-existent, he let his head drop back onto the soft object he was laying on and fell back unconscious.

He awoke again, this time he was more aware of what was around him, the alarm was blaring in his ear and he winced slightly, feeling like he was hung over, and slammed the off button on the alarm clock. He settled back again and then opened his eyes. His vision was blurry, everything was fuzzy and distorted, like looking at life without glasses, or through water. He closed his eyes again and felt something move beside him, he reached under the pillow he was laying again and tried to find the knife he usually kept there. It's not Jade…she's with Sam and Jordan… Dean thought to himself as his vision cleared. Whoever it was rolled over and draped an arm over his chest, which was when he realised he was naked, and, him being him, she was probably naked as well.

Slowly, Dean turned his head to look at whoever was laying next to him.

"It cant be…" he mumbled.

Jade was laying next to him, still fast asleep, her brown hair curled around her neck and lower half of her face. Dean watched her sleeping and then she opened an eye.

"Morning," she moaned as she rolled over.

"M-morning," Dean said sounding unsure of himself.

"You have a hangover?" Jade asked with a chuckle, pulling the cover back and Dean caught himself before he gawked at her naked body.

"Uh…yeah…um…what happened?" he asked, sitting up and rubbing his face,

"Just a party with some friends, you don't look too well Dean," she said, coming over to him and kissing him on the forehead, "I'll call the garage and tell them to cut you some slack, I'm sure John wont mind too much,"

"Yeah…" Dean said, barely paying attention, trying to work out why he couldn't remember much, "Wait, what?" he added quickly.

"Never mind, get some rest" Jade said as she pulled on her clothes.

"You're not staying?"

"No, I have to work, one of us has to be the chump," she joked.

"Hey!" Dean said, flexing his bicep with that cocky grin.

"Very nice, dear, now you go back to sleep for a while and when I come home I expect my dinner to be on the table," Jade grinned at him.

"…work?" Dean said, his grin fading.

"Yeah they need me at the sheriff's office today," Jade said as she pulled her jacket on, making sure her badge was straight, "I know they gave me the day off but its an emergency," she added as she pulled on her belt and holster, slotting the gun into place.

Dean swallowed. My girlfriend is a cop…nice , he thought to himself.

"I'll see you later, Dean" she said, kissing him before she left, disappearing out of the bedroom doorway with a wave.
