Chapter 6

Julie and Joey lay quietly after in each other's arms. He kissed her forehead. She'd bled a little and he had to admit it freaked him out. He'd never been with a virgin before, and he wasn't exactly sure what happened now. She looked at him and swallowed.

"Are you OK?" He said. She blinked at him. "I mean, did I hurt you or anything?"

"No," she said, "I mean a little, but in a good way."

"Pretty kinky for a virgin," he teased, "digging the pain and all." She laughed and pressed her forehead against his chest. "Julie," he kissed her.

"Was it OK?" She asked, "I mean, was I OK?"

"Baby," he kissed her again. "You were great." She smiled. They kissed again and she pressed against him. "I should go."

"What?" She said. "Stay," he smiled and kissed her.

"I can't sleep in here Jules," he said. "We'll get caught."

"Oh," she said, "right." He laughed. "I just, I don't know, this surprised me." They kissed again. "I love you."

"I love you too." He said gently. "I'll see you in the morning, OK?"

"OK," she kissed him again. He got up and walked out and down the hallway. He plopped down on his bed. Dean was sitting up reading something.

"Are you still pissed at me?" Joey said.

"Don't talk to me," Dean rolled over. Joey frowned and looked at him.

"So that's yes?" Joey said. "Look, Dean, I never expected you to get all Chuck-like on my ass." Dean looked at him. "And over a girl, I mean, it's pathetic."

"Don't call me pathetic," Dean said. "I love that girl." Joey looked at him completely bewildered. He knew that Dean had a thing for Julie, some kind of unkillable crush, but that he loved her? That hadn't even occurred to him. He'd just deflowered the girl his little brother loved? He was the shittiest person on the planet. "I'm going to tell her too, I decided."

"You can't do that," Joey sat up. Dean looked at him. "Dean, I'm telling you, if you care about her at all don't tell her that." Dean frowned. Joey looked terrified, genuinely terrified, like the time a year before when their mom had found shrooms in his room. Dean took a deep breath and the two brothers looked at each other.

"Where were you before?" Dean said. Joey looked away. "You screwed her didn't you?" Joey swallowed.

"Dean, listen," Joey said, "it just sort of happened, I didn't plan it." Dean stared at him, unable to think, or move. He was completely blinded by rage. It was like the whole room was red. "I love her too, man," Joey managed quietly. "You've gotta know that." Dean nodded, the rage quieting a little, hearing how sincere Joey sounded. He knew when the guy was bullshitting by now. He was now just sad. Maybe Joey did love Julie tonight, but the guy had one of the worst track records of anyone he'd ever known, in a week there was a huge chance he'd have moved on to something, or someone else, and Julie would be left completely crushed. That fear kept him from moving, kept him from thinking. He couldn't hurt her, he wouldn't. She would need a friend then, and since they were here, he was all she had. "I've never felt like this about anyone." Dean nodded.

"I'm hungry," he stood up and walked downstairs.

Julie curled into a ball and hugged her knees to her chest. When Joey was there she'd felt so satisfied and complete. Now she felt different. Changed, for sure, but it was strange, she wasn't sure it was a good change. She also didn't know how to tell anyone. Connie would want to know, of course, she always wanted to know. When she gave Adam head that time, Connie wanted to know every detail. This would be the same. Isn't that what girlfriends were for? She stood up and walked downstairs to get a glass of water and clear her head. She walked into the kitchen and jumped seeing Dean. He looked at her.

"Hi," he said softly.

"Hi," she whispered. They stared at each other. Did he know? "Dean," she whispered. He walked over and wrapped his arms around her in a strong hug. "Oh Dean, I'm so sorry," she said, her face pressed against his chest. He kissed her hair.

"Don't be sorry," he said. "Don't be," he sighed. He could feel her crying against him. Why was she crying? Did she regret it already? Before Joey even screwed her over? "I told you that you'd fall in love with him."

"I know," she said, "but I didn't mean to, honestly!" He looked at her, she looked up at him, her eyes shining with tears. He kissed her softly. "Oh Dean, don't!" She sighed and stepped away.

"I'm sorry," he shook his head. "I couldn't help it. But I will, I promise." She nodded. "I'm here, Julie, I'm not going anywhere." She smiled.

"You're way more than I deserve Dean Portman," she said. He smiled. "I should get some sleep."

"OK," he nodded. "Cat," he whispered, she turned around. "I love you, you know that right?"

"I love you too," she said. "See you in the morning."

A few mornings later, Joey, Dean and Chuck sat around Chuck's apartment. Dean and Joey were still barely speaking and Chuck trying to fill the awkward silence.

"So," Chuck said, "um how are the younger half?"

"Fine," Dean said. "Joey wouldn't know, since he's never around."

"Yeah, it wouldn't occur to Dean," Joey said, "that I'd rather hang out with my girlfriend than my little brothers." Dean stood up and grabbed his jacket.

"Where are you going?" Chuck asked.

"For a walk," Dean said and slammed the door. Chuck sighed and looked at Joey.

"Am I going to get it from you now?" Joey said.

"Why do you have to push him?" Chuck said. "He's doing his best with all of this but he's going to go over the edge and when he snaps, you're going to die."

"I can handle Deanie," Joey snorted.

"He's a lot bigger than you," Chuck said, "and all he does is work out now." Joey shook his head. "What are you doing with that girl anyway? She's sixteen."

"I know how old she is," Joey said. "And I don't know what I'm doing, we're just hanging out. I love her, or something."

"Or something?" Chuck said. Joey nodded. "You had sex with her didn't you?" Joey shrugged. "Dude, that's totally illegal, you know that right?"

"One pre law class and suddenly big brother's the attorney general?" Joey shrugged. "It's not a big deal."

"Was she a virgin?" Chuck said.

"Dude! None of your business!" Joey said. Chuck looked at him. "It was her idea."

"Shocking, your sixteen year old girlfriend suggested that you guys have sex," Chuck shook his head. "She absolutely didn't think it was the only way you wouldn't break up with her or anything." Joey looked at him. "And how could you do that to Dean? He's your brother."

"It's got nothing to do with Dean," Joey said. "It's definitely got nothing to do with you. It's between me and Julie, got it?"

"Fine," Chuck said. "Whatever. Does Mom know that you're with her?"

"Are you kidding?" Joey raised his eyebrows. "I'm not worried about Dean, but if Mom found out, I know I'd be a dead man."
