Chapter 13
A/N- I do not own Supernatural
I had been staying with the boys for a few months now. I had been teaming up with the boys and Cas but I would sometimes go on hunts on my own. I was just finishing one up in Illinois and as I was driving back to my motel to stitch myself up, I saw some movement on the side of the road.
I pulled over and got out of the truck. As I got closer, the yellow Labrador mix started to growl at me. I hushed him and slowly moved towards him to show that I was going to help him. He couldn't have been more than a few years old. I had managed to get him into the truck and was taking him with me to get him some temporary treatment and food. I would take him to the vet on my way out of town the next morning.
After the seeing the vet and getting the Lab taken care of, I drove back home to the bunker. There were no tags or a chip on the dog so I decided that he would go with me instead of the pound. We had found out that the dog was malnourished and dehydrated and had a few broken bones in their tail and front left leg. The vet splinted the leg and gave me the speech about not letting them do too much. What she didn't know was that I was going to have a certain angel heal the Lab once I got back. The vet had also given the dog medicine to help with the pain which caused the dog to sleep the whole way back to the bunker.
Once I pulled into the garage, I called Cas for some help. Thankfully, he didn't take too much time to get to me. I guess that whole guardian angel myth has some truths to it.
"Cas, I've seen you heal humans but I was wondering if you can help heal my new furry friend here." I asked Castiel with pleading smile.
"Of course, but how will Dean react to you bringing a dog back." He touched the dogs head and they started to wake up. I took off the cast on the Lab's leg while telling Cas about Dean's promise he made before I moved into the bunker. I grabbed mine and the dog's stuff before having them follow me in with Cas not too far behind.
"I'm back boys." I shouted once I was walking down the stairs. Once they shouted that they were in the library, I shouted back that I would meet them there once I put my stuff away. The Lab followed at my heels the whole time.
"Sarah?" Dean asked with a raised eyebrow as I walked into the library.
"Yes?" I asked feigning innocence.
"What's that?"
"Well, this is a new member to the team. At least to my team." I said while petting the dog's head. "His name is Cash and I found him on the side of the road on my way back from the hunt. Don't worry, he's fixed and Cas helped healing him so he should be a healthy and happy pup now."
"Cash?" Sam asked while getting up to pet the dog's belly.
"Yepp. After the great Johnny Cash himself." I said with a smile. I could see a small smile on Dean's face from the corner of my eye. I had a feeling that he would remember me explaining Molly's name to him when they first met. I then pointed a finger and said, "You promised that I could get a dog."
"I remember." He said faking annoyance and shaking his head. "If you found him then it sounds like he needed a home anyway."
"Umm… Sarah?" I heard a gruff voice ask from beside me.
"What's up, Cas?"
"What is he doing?" Cash was pawing a Cas' leg and staring at him with a pleading look.
"He wants you to pet him Cas." I said with a small laugh. "Pet him like you did with Molly."
He followed my instructions by sitting in the floor cross-legged and petting Cash. It wasn't soon before Cash flopped on his back and was getting a belly rub from both Sam and Cas.
"Cash, you've been here for less than ten minutes and you've made those three forget about me." Dean said walking over and sitting next to me on the couch. It wasn't soon before Cash walked over to get some pets from Dean too.
"Don't worry Dean, no one could forget you." I said playfully bumping into him.
A few months had passed and Cash had become a part of the family just like Molly had. Molly could never be replaced but Cash did remind me of her personality wise. However, unlike Molly, he didn't always sleep with me at night. He had developed a habit of switching randomly between my room and Dean's. We were reluctant at first but we both thought that it was better to just sleep with our doors open enough to let him go back and forth.
However, my door was closed this morning. That meant that Dean had woken up early to take care of Cash or Sam had taken him with him on a run. Either way, I didn't worry about it and fell back asleep.
I was woken back up when I heard music blaring through the bunker. I groaned and tried to block out the noise with my pillow. When that didn't work, I got up and pulled on a hoodie to go find the source of the music.
Once I opened the door, it sounded familiar. It sounded like Careless Whisper… I was very confused by the song choice and followed the music to the library. I stood in the doorway once I saw Dean standing next to a table with a boom box on it and a grin on his face. Cash was sitting on the floor next to him. The scene caused me to burst out laughing.
"So, what's up with the cheesey '80s teen movie reference? Not really expecting to wake up to that." I said with a smile and walking towards the Winchester and Lab.
"Well, remember when I told you about my 'mystery girl'?" He continued once I nodded. "Well, you told me that if I ever confessed that I shouldn't do something like this. You also said that you would probably laugh and I thought that would be a good way to kick off the conversation."
"Well, if you're mystery girl is anything like me then I think you'll do well with this plan." I said with an unsure smirk.
"Yeah? It seems to be going well so far." He said with a confident smirk filling his face.
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah." He then leaned down to meet my lips with his.
His rough chapped lips moved in synch with mine. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I wrapped mine around his neck with one hand tangling in his hair. His tongue ran across my bottom lip to ask for entrance which I happily granted. We eventually had to pull away for air but he rested his forehead on mine.
"So… Did my plan work?" He asked with a small chuckle and his usual smirk on his face.
"Hmmm…" I said faking deep thought just to tease him. A smirk then grew on my face. "I think it did. Nice job, Winchester."
"Finally!" I heard Sammy shout from the doorway signaling he had gotten back from his run. "It only took you guys 10 years!"
"Shut it, Sammy." Dean said annoyed. I laughed before kissing Dean once again. Who knew that I would end up with the random guy that I met at the bar and forced to perform with me on stage?
We were a weird family but I wouldn't have it any other way.
The End!
Thanks for reading y'all! :]
Edit: I am very happy you have enjoyed this story! I'm kind of sad to see it end too. I have been asked about a sequel and that originally was not in the plan. However, I do have some ideas for a sequel but I'm not sure if I want to pursue them. I do have other stories that involve Supernatural and I am currently working on.
Thank you all for reading and stay tuned for future projects! :]
