Funny story, I had no plans on writing in Dean's pov, but as usual the ornery Winchester has to have his way *rolls eyes. He claimed he had his own version of this story to tell.

What the fuck is she doing? I watched Ri through narrowed eyes as she flirted with the quarter back. It wasn't her style or her type. She preferred to stay under the radar, and liked egg heads. At least I think she did. It suddenly dawned on me I'd never really seen her with a gut that way. The fact that she was growing up had started to become a problem. She had curves in a the right places, and a sassy mouth match. I didn't like the way guys looked at her, or the fact that I was one of them. The Qt gave her a quick once over that made my temperature boil. The scum wanted one thing and I'd be damned if he got it from my sister.

"Dean… Dean."

"What?" I turned to peer at the petite blond I'd been chatting up at the pep rally.

"I said we should get together after school today."

"I'd love to Sarah, but I can't family stuff."

"Oh yeah, I know how that is, especially being the oldest." She rolled her blue eyes and I nodded. Any other time I'd be all over her like a cheap suit. Right now, I couldn't muster up enough energy to give a damn.

I saw Brad Johnson lean in and whisper into Ri's ear. She laughed and gave him a sly smirk. That's it.

"I'll catch up with you later, I need to check on my little brother and my sister."

"Okay?" I could hear the question in her voice. Ignoring it I walked over to Ri.

"Ri, we should go."

"Why? I'm having a good time."

"Don't' worry I'll make sure she gets home." The jock's cocky tone stuck in my craw.

"Yeah I just bet you would. Come on Ri. We got that family thing to do." I was lying out my ass, but she didn't know that.

Her body tensed, and she turned to me.

"Dad?"

"Yeah." I'd wing it, make up something that sounded good, but lead to a cold trail.

"Sorry, Brad, we need to get out of here."

"Its cool… don't' be a stranger."

"I won't." She shot him a wink. I turned and began to walk, she'd catch up.

"So where's the fire?"

"Apparently in your pants. Really Ri? A jock?" Fuck I wish I thought more before I opened my trap.

"Really you lecturing me? Weren't you over there talking to the living, breathing, blonde, Barbie."

"That's different."

"Why because you're a boy and I'm a girl."

"No."

"Then why?"

I could see the glimmer of pain my words caused.

"Look I'm sorry, just forget it."

"No. I want to know what's going on Dean. It's not like you to give a shit what I do."

"Maybe it is," I mumbled.

She opened her mouth to speak .

"Hey, what's going on? Are we leaving?" Sam appeared beside us, unknowingly saving my bacon.

"Yeah I guess so, Sammy. You ready?" RI asked.

Sam nodded.

Things are grim when I have Sammy to thank for saving my ass. I need to get my head on straight.
