Quiet Words

I have so many thoughts for this story that I had to make a separate document for notes just to make sure I don't fuck up and forget things lol.

"I don't know if I can keep this up on my own." Lily muttered into her phone. She had been talking to Aria but the other girl had gone to the washroom and the phone had started to vibrate on the night stand.

"What are you asking then?" The person on the other line asked.

"I don't know. Maybe some help." Lily stated the obvious as she flopped onto her's and Sam's bed.

"I have been helping." The person reminded her.

"One time doesn't count." Lily argued. "I get that this is a big deal but things are getting more twisted with Aria back and completely unaware!" She sighed and glanced over at the door, listening for anyone in the hall. "You have to be more active on this. You can't just give an order and disappear."

"Very well. I will make inquiries." The person agreed. "I must go now."

"Fine. Aria's coming back anyways." Lily finished the conversation and hung up her phone. She laid down just before Aria walked back into the room.

"Guys are so weird." Aria muttered, sitting on the bed next to the other girl.

"You're only just realizing that now?" Lily asked, laughing.

"No, I realized that when I first started traveling with three of them." Aria replied with a grin.

"So what's this statement of the day for?" Lily questioned, sitting up and looking at her newest friend.

"Sam and Dean are in the other room, talking in hushed voices but I heard something about flowers and music." Aria explained.

"Maybe there's something romantical in the making." Lily suggested.

"Romantical?" Aria asked. "Is that even a real word?"

"I don't care." Lily argued. They both laughed and Lily leaned back against the pillows.

"I so could have used you four years ago." Aria stated with a sigh. "Or really...the whole time I was with the boys."

"I know what you mean." Lily agreed. "I've been with them for a while now and it's just...I can't wait for the times we come here so I can talk with Jo."

"I know, right?" Aria asked, laughing. "I mean...you could be the biggest tom boy but after spending like two months with the Winchesters, you need to have girl talk with someone."

"Exactly!" Lily laughed. "It's been about five months since the last time we were here and Dean was in just as big of a rush as I was to get here."

"What did you do?" Aria asked, curiousity peaking.

"I started talking to him about Sam." Lily replied. Aria laughed and lied down, knowing just the way the other girl meant. She could just imagine the look on Dean's face when that happened and the imagery only made her laugh more.

"Okay okay, here's a girl talk question for you." Aria spoke up as she calmed down. Lily smiled and leaned forward, ready. "When and how did you start sleeping with Sam?"

"Umm...a few months after I joined the guys is the when." Lily answered, leaning back and looking at the ceiling. "And the how...a spell."

"A spell?" Aria asked, sitting up.

"Yep." Lily laughed slightly. "Well Dean had been teasing us the whole time about liking each other but neither of us really were brave enough to do anything. We came across some witches and they put this like...do what you wanted sort of spell on us. Turns out, Dean was right that me and Sam wanted to have sex...with each other." Aria was laughing again and Lily smiled slightly. She started wondering how she could feel this comfortable around the girl, giving the circumstances of everything around them, but it just seemed inevitable. Lily could see how Dean could fall in love with Aria.

***SL***SPN***SL***SPN***SL***

"So are you finally going to admit it then?" Sam asked, watching his brother pace around the room.

"Admit what?" Dean asked, looking through the collection of tapes that he had made Sam get out of the Impala since he himself couldn't go that far without causing pain to himself or Aria.

"Dude, I've known for years that you were in love with Aria." Sam pointed out. Dean scoffed and looked over the Metallica cassette in his hands. "Do not even think about it."

"What?" Dean asked.

"If you're going to try and get somewhere with Aria, Metallica is NOT the way to go." Sam informed him. Dean rolled his eyes but tossed the cassette onto the dresser. "I'm going to regret this." The older brother looked up and raised an eyebrow as the younger one walked out of the room. Unsure on what had just happened, Dean just continued to look through his cassettes, finding something wrong with all of them. When Sam came back, he said nothing but held out his iPod.

"What am I going to do with this?" Dean asked.

"Me and Lily share it." Sam reminded his brother. "She has play lists that would work for this sort of thing."

"You gotta be kidding me." Dean grumbled, looking over the small device. "Chick music?"

"Dean." Sam groaned out in frustration.

"How the hell does this piece of shit even work?" Dean asked.

Sam sighed as he began to instruct his brother on how everything operated on the music player. It took longer than he originally thought as Dean seemed to be just as resistant to accept new technology as Bobby was. Eventually he managed it though, much to his relief, before Dean sent him out to get flowers. Jo ended up having to go with Sam because no one could remember what it was that Aria liked.

"Lil...Ari." Sam called, knocking on his own bedroom door, knowing that his friend was in there with his girlfriend still as she had been all afternoon. The door was opened and both dark haired women stood there, smiling. "Hey, it's dinner time."

"Awesome, food!" Aria cheered. Lily laughed. "I guess I'll go get Dean and we'll meet you all downstairs."

"Sure." Sam agreed, knowing that wasn't going to happen. He put his arm around Lily and the couple went down the stairs. Sam steered her carefully out of the house rather than going to the kitchen and Lily knew then that there was some plan in motion.

"Dean, it's time for din..." Aria called out as she walked into the room but stopped short at the sight before her. There was a small table sitting in the open space with two chairs. On the table sat two plates with food and a small vase with calla lilies in it. Aria blinked and looked around, wondering what was going on.

"Hey, we need to talk." Dean spoke up from behind her. Aria jumped and spun around to look at him. "Sorry."

"How'd you...what..."

"I was in the bathroom." Dean pointed out, gesturing over his shoulder as if that made his point more clear. "Come on, the food's gonna get cold." He gently turned Aria back around and steered her into the room, kicking the door closed behind him. He placed the girl in a chair and sat in the other one. "So what do you think?"

"About this?" Aria asked, waving her hand at the table. Dean grinned and nodded. "It's...surprising."

"Sorry to say this but Jo was the only one that remembered you liked...these." Dean admitted, pointing at the calla lilies. "Mind you, the only reason she remembered was because she saw a thing for that Aladdin movie."

"Well that is why I like them." Aria laughed slightly. "So what's with the set up?"

"Eat first, then we'll talk." Dean instructed. Aria raised an eyebrow. "Come on, you gotta eat. Besides, the less things that can cause a mess, the better."

"There's going to be a mess?" Aria asked.

"God I hope not, Bobby will kill us." Dean replied. Aria smiled and shook her head. They took to eating silently, Dean watching Aria as she toyed with her food before bringing it to her mouth. Dozens of thoughts ran through his head, particularly ones about what the demon had said earlier. Had Aria seriously been in Hell the last four years? He honestly didn't want to believe that. It just seemed so farfetched that his sweet and kind Ari had been in the pit.

"So what did you want to talk about?" Aria asked, starting to get nervous as she drank the last of her beer.

"You and me." Dean replied. Aria bit her lip and looked around the room. "And...that time...last summer for you...few summers for me."

"Oh?" Aria was curious but also a little fearful. They had never bothered to talk about it. The morning after when they had woken up, they didn't even talk about it then. They had just sat quietly before taking separate showers and moving on to their next hunt. They just didn't talk about these sorts of things.

"You asked me before if there was ever anything I wanted in life." Dean recalled as he rose from his chair. Aria watched him carefully, wondering what was going on in his mind. "And you've told me a few times never to just settle, to always want more."

"Not in all cases." Aria pointed out.

"No...not in all cases." Dean agreed, smiling. "But a fair amount." He crouched down by her chair and looked at her. Aria chewed on her lower lip, unsure what to say or do. "There's something I wanted in life...and it got taken from me. Of course, I was too stupid then to realize just how important it was." He lifted his hand and ran it through Aria's dark hair, tangling the strands around his fingers. "Now it's back...and I'm not about to be stupid again."

"Dean I..." Aria started. He wouldn't let her get any further as he moved quickly, standing up enough to be more level with her before using his hand in her hair to pull her head to meet his, connecting their lips once that was accomplished. Aria's eyes flew wide open in surprise but it took her a moment to drag herself back away from him.

"It's you, Ari. It's always been you." Dean uttered the words that thrilled and terrified them both. "I was too stupid to realize...too stupid to notice. I thought about it a lot though, that night we had. I was just...I could never ask you. I wondered if it even meant anything to you. It sure as hell meant a lot to me." Aria stared at him, blue-green eyes wide and mouth hanging open as her brain slowly processed everything being said. Dean rose to stand straight, his hand falling from her hair. "That's...all I needed to say really."

She did nothing, just sat there, eyes now on his stomach, still envisioning him in his crouched position. They were silent for a while. The seconds feeling like hours as they dragged on, each lost to their own thoughts on what had been said. Dean glanced around the room then turned and walked to the door. Aria blinked, her vision suddenly void of him. She jumped to her feet and looked at his back as he reached for the knob. One single thought ran through her mind at that very moment.

Have Dean!

"Dean!" Aria called, barely a second before she was moving across the room. Dean had only a moment to turn around before his back hit the door, a small body pressing to his as soft lips collided with his own. He smirked as his hands fell to her hips, holding her to him as he felt her fingers brush through his short hair. Her tongue touched his lips and he instantly met it with his own. They dragged themselves apart after a few seconds, foreheads leaning on each other as they caught their breath. "Don't...you dare...leave."

"Leave?" Dean asked, blinking. "I wasn't leaving."

"Then what were you doing?" Aria asked.

"Locking the door." Dean pointed out. "I was going to come right back over and do this." Aria yelped when she was suddenly lifted off her feet and swung up into Dean's arms. Her feet hit the lamp on the bedside table and they both paused before Dean laughed. "Whoops."

"You're fixing that later." Aria ordered.

"Whatever you say, baby." Dean agreed with a smirk. "But definitely later because right now, we're going to do something a hell of a lot more fun than cleaning."

Okay so yes I'm being mean and cutting it off there but I really wanted to put this chapter up. If you guys want the fun dirty stuff let me know and it'll be in the next chapter.

So let's here the guesses, do you all think Lily is good or bad? I have a whole bunch of stuff planned here so let's see who gets it right with her. Also, who was she talking to? Dun dun daaa!
