Time for just a little amusement.
Sam and Dean drove away from Pennsylvania, Oktoberfest, the shapeshifter, and their own personal monster movie feeling pretty good. Therefore, Dean was surprised when he noticed Jen appear in the backseat. Dean glanced at his brother who was obliviously watching the scenery.
"We appear to have company."
Sam quickly glanced around, and gave Jen a surprised look when he saw her. She just smiled and waved at him.
"Hey, Jen, what's going on?"
Her smile grew wider into an almost sheepish grin. It was not a look Sam had ever seen on Jen before.
"I just wanted to tell you both, now that you survived, um ... that was awesome."
Sam and Dean looked at each other confused. "What are you talking about? Us almost getting ourselves killed?"
"No, well, I mean, it was pretty amusing to see the girl save you two, but I mean Dracula! Also, the Mummy and the Wolf Man. I just love those movies, and he did such a great job, really channeling the old guys, Boris and Bela. Did I ever tell you I met Bela Lugosi back in the day? Whew, he was smooth."
Dean raised his eyebrows. "Did you just seriously tell us that you had a fling with the original Dracula?"
Jen slyly smiled. "I said no such thing." Her eyes lit up again as she continued. "Anyway, I saw so many of those movies in the theaters. They were just amazing, at the time, anyway."
Dean nearly choked trying to keep from laughing, and nearly swerved off the road in the process. He got the Impala back under control before continuing.
"I would never have taken you for a horror movie lover."
Sam was still looking at Jen in amazement. "How did you do it? Knowing the truth about the real creatures?"
"I think that knowing the reality makes the movies more interesting. Looking for the elements of the legends and the myths that are real and looking to see which have changed over the centuries or been modernized. It's really quite amusing and intellectual. I mean, a girl has to keep herself occupied over thousands of years." Jen sighed and leaned back in the seat looking wistful. "But, still early 1900's cinema, wow, those were the days."
Dean smiled to himself. Jen was one of those people, beings, whatever, that was always a little more interesting every day. He supposed that thousands of years of adventures would provide that. Still, he knew what had to be done now that he knew this tidbit.
"Well, I think I know what we are doing tonight!"
Sam was still smiling from ear to ear, dimples showing. Dean knew that Sam had a good idea of where this was going, but he asked his brother anyway.
"And what's that?"
Dean pointed a finger in the air as he declared. "Bad horror movie night!"
After that, no one in the car could speak through the laughter for at least five minutes.
