THE WINCHESTER TRUTH

I am so sorry I have not had a chance to update this story! I have been going for my Aunt of the year badge by watching my nieces. I have not had a chance to get to the library since trusty old Blue, the laptop is being stubborn. I barely get to review the stories I'm reading on the site. I have so much to catch up with.

Anybody see the Supernatural season 8 finale? I Loved, Loved it! If anyone wants to PM me about the finale and what they think will happen on season 9 feel free to PM me! Again I am going to finish this story. I have to love the Winchesters and Mercedes!

I heard that Jensen and his wife welcomed a baby girl name Justice Jay nicknamed J.J., I wish them the best!

Love, LudaNeet

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee or Supernatural. But how I wish I worked for Supernatural great job looking at those two all day!

WINCHESTER

Sam crushed down on his phone. He had left Garth the tenth voice message in the last hour and half. These were the days he missed Bobby the most. Bobby had helped all the hunters but Dean and Sam were more than hunters to Bobby, they were family. This was the time being the favorites worked to their advantage. Garth treated hunting like a business, a business that didn't pay but a business. That worked sometimes, it would work today if Garth bothered to answer the phone. Garth had placed GPS system on all the hunters' phone.

"Dean when I find you if you are not already dead, I'm going to ring your damn neck." Sam said to the shabby motel wall.

….

"Eat," Mercedes commanded Dean.

"I should get going. Sam will rip out my heart if I don't contact him soon." Dean said.

"And Sam's not your boyfriend, huh? I really think you should eat. I will make a deal with you. If I let you use my phone to call Sam will you eat?" Mercedes bargained with him.

"Deal, I have a question for you? Why didn't you call the police when I was spilling state secrets or why didn't you run when you saw a faceless man?" Dean wasn't sure what was going on most people did not react the way she did in that situation.

"He had a mask on made him look faceless I know." Mercedes reasoned, "The reason I didn't call the police on you? Honestly, I don't know why! One of my good friends is the Sheriff. I could have had you arrested last night but I my intuition told me not to."

"That's how you knew about the couple of bodies Sheriff is your friend."

"He was in Glee club with me." Mercedes admitted.

"Of course, who in this town was not in Glee club?" Dean asked?

"Here, sorry I didn't find your phone on you." Mercedes handed him her phone.

"Thanks," Dean dialed Sam's number.

"Hello," Sam answered the phone irritated.

"Sammy, it's me. I got attacked last night but I'm okay. Mercedes found me she scared them away somehow." Dean watched Mercedes go into the kitchen to reheat up his breakfast, "I think we might have two things in town. Or a pair?"

"You think that Mercedes is a creature?" Sam asked?

"She saved my life. I don't think she will harm me but she said I was out of it and I was spilling secrets that would make a normal person run instead she fixed me breakfast. I need you to find all you can about Mercedes while I try talking to her. She might give me a clue of whom or what the hell she is. I still say Siren." Dean could hear Mercedes whistling along to a song.

"Dean, man be careful. If she is not human then you could be in danger." Sam warned.

"I will, If I don't call you in two hours come looking for me" Dean instructed.

"Alright man." Sam hung up with his brother.

"Did you check in with your Sammy?" Mercedes hoped that she hadn't let her disappointment show.

"Sam is not my boyfriend. If he was I wouldn't deny it there are too many things in this world to be worried about than trying to play down low. Beside I heard that Sam was good looking." Dean said with pride as if he had contributed to his looks himself. Dean resembled his mother while Sam was more of his father twin except for that tall height. Where Sam inherited his height was still a mystery.

"Here eat." Mercedes handed him the tray of food that was filed with scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and orange juice.

"Thank you." Dean munched on the food; it tasted way better than the continental breakfast.

"Dean, what did you mean when you said that Sam was the only one left for you to love?" Mercedes asked?

Dean looked at his toast waiting for it to answer the question for him. He wanted to give her some made excuse like he had given people time after time. Most people couldn't handle the truth of what he actually did for a living. He couldn't and didn't want to tell Mercedes a lie; he wanted to tell her everything. He opted for the water down version of the truth.

"My mom pasted when I was five. My dad passed about a decade ago and recently I lost an Uncle and a daughter." Dean said.

"You lost a daughter?" Mercedes tried to picture what a little Dean looked like.

"My daughter Emma passed when she was only a few days old." Dean tried to block Emma out of his mind. The way she looked at him with his very own eyes, the way the cold steel felt heavy in his hand for the first time in years. He had tried bargaining with his three day old daughter that blossomed into a sixteen year old Amazon on the intent to kill her father to rethink the whole thing. Dean did not have a plan B but he couldn't kill his own child that displayed so many of his own mannerisms.

"That is sad. I'm sorry to hear that." Mercedes wanted to pull him into a hug to carry a little bit of his pain.

"It's weird that that you never realize how much you love a person that didn't even exist the day before. Emma was a part of me, when she passed I felt like I had betrayed her in a way." Dean had not shared that thought to anybody before. Dean couldn't get the image of Emma's stunned and betrayed expression when she figured out that it was her Uncle Sam who was the triggerman that shot her right in the forehead. The unfazed expression Sam wore killing Emma as if killing her was an ordinary action. That was what hurt the most. Dean knew he would have done the same thing if the roles were reversed. Sam had not seen his contribution to Emma, they shared the same nose.

"Was that your only child?" Mercedes asked?

"I had a stepson sort of. Ben was great. At first I thought he was mine. He resembled, acted, and thought a lot like me. His mother and I had dated prior before his birth. When I bumped into her again there was Ben. She told me he was not mine. I loved him like he was mine own. Things did not work out between his mom and me. I had retired before I got serious with her but I had one of those cold cases that called me back to the life. Lisa thought she could handle me returning to work. She couldn't, she was not prepared. She told me it was worse than dating a cop scared that at any moment my partner would be calling to tell her I was dead. We tried, we really did. I couldn't continue the relationship when my job put Lisa and Ben in a deathly situation. A suspect kidnapped them; I cannot have another serious relationship again until I'm completely out of this business. I cannot handle that." Dean left out the part that he had him erased from their memory to make sure they would never be in harms way again.

"I'm sorry." This time Mercedes did hug him.

"I'm not telling you my sad sob story to gain your trust or anything else. You asked I'm trying to be as honest with you as I can. Sam is more than my partner, Sam is my family, and he's my brother." Dean allowed Mercedes to take out of the comment whatever the hell she wanted.

"You have given up a lot for your job why do you stay?"

"Not too many people are dumb enough to risk their lives for this job."

"I will smack you upside the head if you say that shit again. My Uncle is a FBI profiler. He is brave but one thing he is not is dumb. I understand why you said you were a hunter. I bet it feels like that when you are looking for a suspect. I know it must feel like nobody appreciates what you do. I want you to remember I do. "Mercedes said.

"Mercedes, thank you for that. Thanks for breakfast. I don't get too many home cooked meals on the road."

"Sam and you should stop by for dinner tomorrow. I will fix you something to eat to show you two that your hard work is not going to waste." Mercedes suggested.

"Will your boyfriend be okay with that?" Dean reminded her she was in a relationship.

"As long as your boyfriend is okay with it." Mercedes couldn't help teasing him.

"What's your story?" Dean pointed to the framed magazine.

"Not much to tell I have wanted to be a singer before I could actually talk. I gave it a try, my mom got sick I came back to help her." Mercedes refused to look at the magazine with Dean there.

"May I hear you sing?" Dean asked?

"Dean, I have not sung since I got back to Lima"

"Why not? I don't want to be a professional singer and I cannot picture not singing at all. Okay if you choose not to sing. I guess I will have to give it my best shot." Dean cleared his throat.

"That is not going to make me sing." Mercedes said.

"Knock knock on heaven's door." Dean purposely sang terribly off key.

"You win, you win." Mercedes surrendered. She wondered what in the hell was it about this guy that made her put all her guards down.

"My own private concert." Dean smiled.

"One song and one song only." Mercedes said.

Sam rubbed the crease of his forehead he couldn't find out useful information about Mercedes. She used to sing in the Glee club which they already knew. She was in the church choir. She was discovered by a Youtube video that her then boyfriend had posted. Everything that Mercedes had told them about her had checked out. There was even an article about her returning to Lima, Ohio to help take care of her sick mother. He hoped that Dean had gathered more information than he did. The truth was she might be human. Sam's phone rang.

"Hello," Sam picked up.

"Agent Murphy, this is Tina Cohen- Chang I was calling back to make sure you were able to locate Ms. Fabray."Tina said sweetly.

"Yes, I was thank you so much." Sam said.

"I'm glad I can help. If there is anything I could help with don't feel shy to ask" Tina cooed.

"As a matter of fact I do need your help with something. Mercedes and you have been a wonderful help, we wanted to give you a small token of our gratitude. I already got the perfect gift for you. Mercedes is a little more difficult, mind if I ask you a couple questions" Sam tried to trend lightly.

"We could get a cup of coffee while we brainstorm the perfect gift for Mercedes. I can't wait to see what you got me." Tina bite her tongue from saying the perfect gift would be you.

"I can meet you in ten minutes." Sam suggested.

"It's a date, bye." Tina hung up before Sam could protest.

….

"Encore, encore." Dean clapped. Mercedes bowed after performing her sixth song for Dean.

"No more." Mercedes told him. She watched him lean forward on the couch his string necklace with the funny looking face charm followed. Mercedes was not sure if the charm was leading him or him leading the charm.

"Nice charm." Mercedes commented. She had a feeling there was an interesting story behind it.

Dean touched the amulet, "My brother gave it to me when I was a kid. I thought I misplaced it a few backs. Luckily my brother found it, he gave it back to me last year. It's a symbol to remind me the importance of family. My family is the most important thing to me and family protects you." Dean thought about how he had thrown away the amulet that Sam had given him as a kid. He had nicknamed it his Samulet. The amulet was supposed to be a Christmas gift for their father. Sam had opted to give it to him. The amulet never left his chest until Cas borrowed it to find God. Dean had lost confidence in God and Sam all in one day. Dean had slowly gained trust in both.

"What about that strange tattoo on your chest?" Mercedes had spotted the tattoo when she was tending to the bruises on his chest.

"Folklore that it stops demon and ghost from possing me," Dean said,

"Agent Dean Ryan you are an interesting man." Mercedes shook her head.

"Ms. Mercedes, you have the voice of a siren." Dean watched for any change of facial experission. Mercedes didn't even flinch.

"Thank you I think." Mercedes tried to processes this strange compliment.

The doorbell rang interrupting their private chat.

"Mercedes, I came to pick up my partner. Tina brought me to pick him up. I hope he was not too much trouble." Sam said when Mercedes opened the door.

"Dean was great. I was telling Agent Ryan you two should come over for a home cook meal before you leave town," Mercedes offered.

"We will have to look at our schedule." Sam said,

"Dean, your partner is here to get you," Mercedes told him.

Dean slowly walked to the door, "Thanks for everything." Dean kissed her lightly on the cheek.

"Sam, she cannot be completely human, She has one of the best singing voices I have ever heard that and I felt compelled to tell her the truth about everything, I told her the truth but I omitted some of the main parts like about demons. We need to look up a low level truth siren maybe," Dean said.

"Dean did it ever occur to you she might be a great singer and the reason you wanted to tell her the truth is because she's nice. That and since Bobby is no longer around the only ear you have is mine, can't quite complain about me to me. I think you might want another friend beside your brother and the angel. There is nothing wrong with that. I talked to Tina about Mercedes she checks out; you like her Dean! Ask her out." Sam laid down on his assigned bed.

"I have no problems asking girls out."

"Only the girls you like for more than a one night stand. Mercedes is that girl if she's a creature then you won't have to deal with your feelings for her." Sam said.

Dean made a funny face he grabbed his beer, "Yea that's not it. She's a siren."

Again so sorry for the long delay. I hope to be finished with this story by the end of July. In next chapter we will throw a couple of old friends in the mix. I have quite few pages written the hard part is putting them into a concrete chapter that actually makes sense. Love ya, LudaNeet.
