Want U Bad
Chapter 10.5: We'll Be Alright
OOOO
"Do I know you?" Castiel's head tilted slightly, trying to rake his mind.
Anna smiled, "He is living with Jo."
"Jo Harvelle?" Castiel smiled, too, "Its about time that girl finds someone."
Dean felt sick.
Jo was dead.
Castiel didn't know him.
All that could be wrong in the world was.
OOOO
Chapter 11: Wish You Were Here
Dean woke up. He was sweating, the alarm blaring Huey Lewis and The News.
Sam was laying on the other bed, snuggled against a pillow, snoring.
It had all been a dream.
Everything.
It had to have been.
He couldn't have been dragged through time like that, could he?
He relaxed slightly against the headboard. He closed his eyes, wanting to go back to sleep.
"Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?"
Dean jolted back up.
It was coming from the bathroom. Along with the sound of the running shower.
He stood, and tiptoed to the bathroom door. Picking up the sawed-off on the table.
His hand grabbed the door knob.
"Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality."
It was a girl's voice.
Who sings Queen in the shower? Dean thought as he opened the door.
"Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see."
Dean slipped the nose of the gun under the shower curtain.
"Any way the wind blows, doesn't really matter..."
Dean smiled, whoever it was messed up the words.
Dean put force into the gun as he ripped the curtain open.
A shriek ruined the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody.
"JO?" Dean dropped the gun.
"Who else were you expecting?" She yelled, trying to slow her breathing.
He didn't notice that she had covered herself.
"I didn't know, I just heard singing." He picked the gun back up. He couldn't help but stare at her.
Man, he missed her.
"Why are you here?" He asked.
She raised an eyebrow, "I think I should be asking you that."
"I meant in the hotel with us."
She tightened the towel, "How drunk were you last night?"
"Drunk?"
"Yeah, drunk. My mother is still mad at you for ruining the party."
"Party?"
Jo rolled her eyes, "My engagement party."
"Engagement?"
He was engaged to Jo.
Well, this wasn't too awful a world.
"Don't you remember anything?" Jo stepped out of the shoulder, "Sam is going to be pissed."
"Why would Sam be pissed?"
"You ruined our party with that speech!" She yelled, "I know you were drunk but saying that your brother was gay and you couldn't believe he was engaged to a girl, and that I was a cover-up, that was low, even for you Dean."
Sam...
Sam was...
Sam and Jo...
They were...
Dean felt sick again.
Sam and Jo?
Jo was his.
Not if she were to live...the voice slithered into his mind again.
Darkness clouded his vision.
OOOO
The woman was standing in front of him again.
"I did it, Dean." She smiled, "I pulled all the strings and gave you a world where both Sam and Jo are alive."
Dean frowned.
"What? You don't like it?" Her smile dropped, "You would actually rather have the woman you care for dead, instead of alive and happy with your brother?"
Dean didn't reply.
"What does that say about you?" She circled him, "It says that you are selfish. It says that you have wasted my time and the world's. The world is in turmoil, and the only thing that can save it is you...sadly."
"I don't want to bring on the apocalypse." Dean muttered.
"You don't want to save millions?" You are a sad little puppy, Dean." She looked him directly in the eyes, "Your reward is waiting, all you have to do is put the car into drive."
OOOO
"Daddy?" Lilith was leaning close to Castiel, who was stretched out into the backseat.
"Yes?" He still felt weak.
Her eyes flashed yellow, "Miss me?"
OOOO
AN: OH NO! WHAT IS HAPPENING?
REVIEW...PLEASE!
