A/N: Hey there! Well, I got two requests, despite the wait on this story to get updated. Anyhow, I was planning on doing a Dean/Elena one when Castiel's Little Angel requested one, so here it is. Stay tuned for a Sam/Dean one. ;) * FF is messing with my Format, so sorry if some stuff is mashed together...*

Over My Head ( Cable Car) – The Fray.

Dean/Elena.

I never knew,
I never knew that everything was falling through.
That everyone I knew was waiting on a cue,
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth.

Elena watched as she saw him leave in the middle of the night again. She rubbed her neck, having trouble swallowing. She wanted to know why he had to leave every second day or so, he never tells her what he's doing, or where he goes.

" It's complicated." He would say every time she would ask him what he's doing out there. She turned heading up the stairs to her bed.

She had said the words he says to her so many times before she had ever met him.

But that's how it's got to be.
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy.
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see,
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears.

Dean ran out to the Impala, sitting down in the divers seat and stared out at the road. He really wanted to go back inside and tell her everything. About Sam, Hell, Heaven, Angels, the whole God-damned Apocalypse.

But, he was worried that she would call him insane- not that he isn't, but hearing the words from her would be too much, seeing her leave would brake him. Dean looked down at the steering wheel, a smirk on his lips, sadness in his eyes.

" I'm such a love sick sap." He said to himself as he started up the car and drove off to Sam.

Like he always did, and always will.

Everyone knows I'm in,
Over my head.
Over my head.
With eight seconds left in overtime,
She's on your mind.
She's on your mind.

" I just want to know where you go!" Elena yelled, fists clenched at her side. " And don't feed me that ' it's complicated' bullshit, Dean Winchester!"

Dean clenched his jaw, " you really want to know?" He asked, his voice deep with anger, " you want to know where I go to? What I do?" He stepped closer, Elena's eyes never leaving his, " Because whatever is going to leave my mouth is probably the most messed up crap you've ever heard."

" Try me." Elena said, " because I've had my fair share of crap in my life time."

" Exactly!" Dean said, " You're family was killed by some deranged vampire, right?"

Elena's eyes darkened, " what does that have to do with this?"

" I don't want to throw my baggage on top of yours." Dean said, " so, move out of the way and let me do what I have to do."

" You know what?" Elena said, stepping aside, " don't bother coming back, Dean."

" Elena-"

" Just go!" Elena yelled, finally braking down, tears brimming in her eyes. She closed the door tightly behind him as he left.

Let's rearrange,
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage.
Just say that we agree and then never change,
Soften a bit until we all just get along.

Dean came back, knowing that he will not be welcomed. He just couldn't stay away, not that he had a choice. Sam and his grandfather, Samuel, both freshly plucked out of the dead, it was too much. He needed a bit of normal, even if it was something like just hearing Elena scream at him. He lifted his fist and knocked lightly on the door, hearing someone behind the door. He saw the dark tresses, first, but the face didn't match. Bonnie stared at him, her eyes wide and accusing.

But knowing, as well.

" Dean?" She asked, she closed the door behind her as she stepped outside. " What are you doing here? Elena called me, sobbing because you left. She said you wouldn't come back." Her voice became hard at the end.

" She okay?" Dean asked, knowing how stupid the question was.

" She's a mess." Bonnie growled, opening the door, " thanks to you. Well, you might as well stick your wrench in this and try and fix it."

But that's disregard,
Find another friend and you discard.
As you lose the argument in a cable car,
Hanging above as the canyon comes between.

Elena watched with tired eyes as Dean walked in, sitting down on the couch beside her. She threw her arms around him, happy that he came back. She cried into his shoulder, Bonnie watching from afar.

" You're all I have left." She whispered, " they're all gone, and it's just you and Bonnie left."

She felt Dean place a hand on her back, " I know."

" I don't care if you don't tell me anything. I don't care! Just please, I don't want to be alone." Elena pulled back, eyes wide and staring. Dean nodded, placing a hand on her shoulder. " I'll be here when I can, Elena."

Elena nodded, her bottom lip trembling. The answer was just fine with her at the moment.

She was just happy he came back.

Everyone knows I'm in,
Over my head.
Over my head.
With eight seconds left in overtime,
She's on your mind.
She's on your mind.

Everyone knows I'm in,
Over my head.
Over my head.
With eight seconds left in overtime,
She's on your mind.
She's on your ...

Elena thanked Bonnie for staying with her while Dean was gone, Bonnie saying that she wanted to stay with her. She could sense that Elena was putting on a good act, but with Dean coming and going as he usually did, she didn't want her to be alone.

Elena, on the inside, was drowning in a lake that was too deep.

She was in over her head.

And suddenly I become a part of your past,
I'm becoming the part that don't last.
I'm losing you and its effortless.

Without a sound we lose sight of the ground.
In the throw around.
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down,
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves.

Dean stayed for a whole week after Elena's brake down, making sure Elena didn't do anything stupid. She didn't say much when he was there, not like the other times. Bonnie was a help, just a bit though, she at least got Elena to talk with her.

" There was a vampire." Elena said one night, crossing her arms, " his name was Klaus."

Dean looked up, listening.

" He killed everyone. Damon, Stefan, my family." She stopped, taking a breath. " I loved them all so much. But they died because I was selfish. That Klaus wanted me because I was the doppelganger, the one he needed for a spell. But I said no to his face, he relented by killing everybody I cared about. Now...he's still out there. Waiting for me. He'll come for me, and he'll kill you and Bonnie. I can't have that." She sat down, " I wish there was something I could do, but I'll sacrifice myself for you and Bonnie."

Dean stared at her, then shook his head, " Well, that's just...awesome." He muttered, " Elena, you will tell him no. You tell him no until you're blue in the face. You know why?"

She paused, " why?"

" Because that's what me and Sam did." He said, " and that's why we're still here today..." He paused, " and you have me and Bonnie. A witch and a kick ass hunter. That vampire won't stand a chance."

Elena smiled, " I still don't understand."

Dean leaned back, " well, I guess I'll start from when I got out of Hell."

Elena nodded, knowing that story about Dean selling his soul for Sam.

" His name is Castiel..." Dean started.

And everyone knows I'm in,
Over my head.
Over my head.
With eight seconds left in overtime,
She's on your mind.
She's on your mind.

Everyone knows,
She's on your mind.
Everyone knows I'm in over my head.
I'm in over my head.
I'm over my...

Everyone knows I'm in,
Over my head.
Over my head.
With eight seconds left in overtime,
She's on your mind.
She's on your mind .
