All my thoughts are with you forever
Until the day we'll be back together
Bobby tossed his phone aside and cursed. It had been four months since Kat's appearance and also four months since her and Sam had just disappeared in the middle of the night. They had stayed a week and then left without so much as saying goodbye. And now, no matter how many times Bobby called Sam and left messages they were never returned. He turned when he heard a knock on the door. He swore and got up. He walked over to the door and pulled it open. He stood there shocked.
"Hey, Bobby," Dean said smiling at Bobby.

Dean wiped his face with a dish towel and looked at Bobby. Bobby shrugged and leaned against the desk. Dean couldn't believe that Bobby hadn't believed that he was really alive again. It had taken Dean cutting his own skin with a silver knife and holy water to the face for Bobby to finally believe that he was back and alive. Dean tossed the dish towel aside and looked at Kat's bracelet for a moment. He shook his head and looked back at Bobby.
"So, where's my pain in the ass little brother?" Dean asked.
"Don't know, he doesn't keep in touch anymore. By the way, I have a question for you."
"Alright."
"Did you happen to get a girl pregnant before you died?"
"WHAT?!"
"Huh, so Sam wasn't lying, you didn't know."
"Know what? Bobby what the hell are you talking about?"
"Katerina McCrae. She's here and she's about a month away from having your baby, Dean. Too bad that at the moment she is AWOL with your brother."
"Wait... Kat is here?" Dean said trying to wrap his head around that. The words he had spoken to her came floating back to him and he wondered why after that she would want to come here. Especially if she was pregnant; he would think she would want a safe life for her baby. Then it hit him; Kat was pregnant with his baby.
Bobby saw the exact moment Dean realized he was going to be a father. Dean's face lost some colour and he grabbed a chair to sit down. Bobby leaned against the desk and waited while Dean pulled his thoughts together. He smiled a little thinking he never thought he would see the day that Dean Winchester would be terrified out of his mind. One little baby had done what years of hunting and monsters couldn't, the thought of Hell included; they had Dean scared out of his mind.
"She's... Pregnant?" Dean asked looking up at Bobby his voice a little shaky.
"Yes, she is. I thought... Well, I was hoping that her being here and being pregnant could help Sam. You know, keep him sane but..."
"They took off."
"Yeah. Sam got quiet that week; one thing was he stopped drinking as much but... Then one morning I woke up and fully expected to see them curled on the couch together but-," Bobby started.
"Wait, they would sleep on the couch? Together?"
"Boy, they were comforting each other. Believe me I saw the look in Kat's eyes when Sam or I would mention your name. There was and never was going to be anything but familial love between Sam and Kat."
Dean ran his hands over his face. He stood up and took a deep breath. He looked at Bobby and knew he needed to find Sam and Kat. There were so many things he needed to say to Kat. He just wanted to hold her in his arms and love her for the rest of his life. However before he did that he needed to make sure that neither she nor Sam had done something to get him back; something that might have cost them their souls. He couldn't deal with losing either of them.
"Alright, we need to find them. Can I use your phone?" Dean asked.
"Of course. I've been waiting to give that ijit a piece of my mind."
Dean nodded and smiled. He went over and grabbed the phone. Time to track down his brother and his baby's momma. He smiled knowing that Kat would smack him silly if he ever told her that to her face. God, he had missed her.

Kat heard the soft whispers and the harsh words that were being used. She moaned and grabbed a pillow and placed it on her head. Apparently Ruby and Sam were arguing again. And she knew exactly what it was about; her. Sam insisted that they share a motel room because he didn't want Kat being alone this close to her due date. He had read all kinds of books from the many city libraries he had visited as well as websites that insisted on scaring the crap out of mothers to be by listing every single horrible thing that could go wrong; Sam had apparently believed every word. It wasn't a problem when it just the two of them; people thought they were a happy couple and they usually took a king and shared. But when Ruby decided to drop by to annoy the hell out of Kat and use Sam's guilt to her advantage, they usually got two rooms; one for Kat and one for Sam and Ruby. This time however, Sam hadn't given into the demon and she was pissed about it. Kat couldn't really careless where she laid her head considering she barely got any sleep at all anyway.
"You two do realize I can hear you right?" Kat asked sitting up and moaning at the pain in her back.
"Are you alright?" Sam asked coming to her side his hair still wet from the shower. He still felt guilty that he had let Kat come with him on his quest to find Lilith. Then again, it had been Kat who had told him that wherever he went she was going to go with or without his knowledge. It was either let her come with him or just have her follow him and get hurt.
"Well, let's see... My ankles are swollen, I haven't seen my feet in about two months, and I am fat and need to pee all the time. Does that mean alright?" Kat asked standing up and rubbing her back. She was relieved when Sam took over massaging her back in slow circles.
"No one asked you to come along for the ride," Ruby said glaring at Kat.
"Someone had to. Someone needs to watch over Sam's back."
"I am watching Sam's back."
"Sure, as long as you get what you want, you demonic whore."
"Hey, I'm not the one who is unmarried and pregnant. I think that makes you the whore."
"Ruby, stop it," Sam stated coldly.
Kat smiled and watched as Ruby walked over to her jeans and grabbed them. Kat pulled away from Sam's touch and turned to look at him. The soft, caring, warm man she had known had been replaced by a cold, dark controlling man. He was bent on having his revenge against Lilith. Kat had seen him be cold to people and brush them off like they were no one. She seemed to be the only one that he was still his old self with. She placed her hand on his cheek and wished that he hadn't changed. She worried about how he would be with her child.
"So, been thinking of names," she said smiling.
"Alright. Boy or girl?" Sam said smiling as well. He loved playing this game. They would each pick out names, first and middle and then listen to what the other thought. Ruby had told him the game was childish; he had told her to piss off.
"Girl. I told you I have the boy name already."
"Uh huh, John Dean. Well, you name him that then we can move to Virginia to Walton's mountain."
"Funny," Kat punched him in the shoulder.
"Okay, tell me the name."
"Morgana Adare."
"Yeah, not happening."
"Excuse me? This is my kid."
"And my niece, no way are you hanging that name on her. I would like her to grow up being non Emo, please. I still like mine from yesterday."
"I told you Hannah means 'Grace' so what be the point in naming her Hannah Grace? Might as well name her Grace Grace."
"Grace Grace?.... Nah, kind of repetitive, don't you think?"
Sam smiled when Kat hit him again. He watched as she walked over to the washroom. She shut the door behind her. He turned and saw Ruby pulling her jeans on. He walked over to her and took her arm. She turned around to face him. He wished that he didn't need her around because he knew how Kat felt about her but he did. If he had any chance of getting rid of Lilith he needed Ruby.
"I told you to leave Kat alone, alright? She isn't having an easy time right now," Sam said.
"She shouldn't be here, Sam. She should be at Bobby's. Having her here with you is only dragging you down. And it gives Lilith another target to hit. She took out Dean; do you want her to take out Kat too?"
"Kat isn't going to get hurt; I won't let her get hurt."
"Sure, keep telling yourself that, Sam. She is going to get hurt, or worse that baby is and it will be all on your head."
Sam was about to answer when a knock came on the door. He looked at Ruby. She sighed and went over to the door. She pulled it open. He heard Dean's voice and shook his head. That was impossible, his brother was dead. He walked over and saw Dean standing there. Dean smiled at him.
"Hiya, Sammy," he said just like Dean would. Sam couldn't believe what was going on. He just looked at Dean when he came into the room. He then decided this couldn't be Dean. He grabbed his knife and lunged at the imposter.
***
Kat splashed cold water on her face and told herself she couldn't murder Ruby because Sam would miss her. He would be the only one to miss her but still. She shut the water off and stood up. She winced and rubbed her stomach. She sighed when her child stopped kicking in her ribs. She looked in the mirror and wished Dean could be with her. Deep down she was scared out of her mind about giving birth. She knew that Sam would be there but it wouldn't be the same. She wanted Dean beside her but he wouldn't be.
"You aren't him!" she heard Sam yell.
"Sam, it's him! It's really him!" she then heard Bobby's calming voice.
She went over and opened the door and stepped into the room, "What the hell is-," her words died in her mouth as she looked over and saw Dean standing there.
Dean looked at Kat. Her saw her large rounded stomach and sucked in a breath. She was beautiful. He walked over to her and smiled at her. He placed his hand on her stomach and realized she was stunned into silence. His smile widened when he felt their child kicking against his hand. He rubbed her stomach and looked into her grey eyes.
"Hey Kitten. You look... Beautiful," he said reached out and stroking her cheek.
Kat looked up at Dean and realized she had spent the last eight months in emotional hell because of him. He had broken her heart and now just because he was back from Hell he thought that that gave him a free pass. She shook her head as tears came to her eyes. She looked into his eyes and hated him with everything at the moment. She balled her hand in a fist and hit him on the jaw just like he had hit her.
"You son of a bitch, how dare you think that you can just walk back in here, into my life and that all would be forgiven?" she demanded.
"Well... I was dead and did go to Hell, so yeah, I thought you would be happy to see me," Dean said.
"Screw you."
Dean turned and watched as Kat marched over and sat on the bed. She looked at the floor, Sam, the walls, Sam anywhere but him. He sighed. So that wasn't going as planned. He told himself he would grovel at her feet later. He rubbed the spot on his jaw where she had hit him. Damn, girl packed a punch. He looked up and saw Bobby and Sam trying to hide their smirks. Oh yeah, he would get both of them back later. He looked at Kat and watched her wince and rub her stomach. He wanted to go over to her but didn't. He knew she didn't want him around her yet. He just hoped he would have time to get closer to her before their child was born. Last thing he wanted was her keeping him out of the delivery room; then again he had heard some other hunters describe the experience and he wasn't sure if he could handle that. Demons yes, babies being born maybe not.
A/N: So, some of you have brought up the fact that I left things with Jensen unresolved. Well, there is a reason for that. I have been thinking of doing a story with him and Jared about how thinsg go after Kat leaves. However, as of right now I am still working on Change of Fate, Get Down Women with nobodyxwhore and this story. So, I have decided not to even start writing this new story until I finish some of my other ones. But don't worry, I have thought of it which means I will probably do it. I have this problem with saying no to story ideas. You don't even want to know how many notebooks I have filled with ideas. It's pretty sad. Anyway, thank you for reading and reviewing and favortiing this story and other ones of mine. Makes me happy inside when you do. Let's me know that people enjoy my work. So, thanks again and until next time, folks.
