Boyfriends, Angry Dads and a P. O. ed Dean
I was sitting on my car hood with Ben eating a double cheeseburger when I heard my phone ringing in the front seat. I slide of the hood and picked up the ringing phone.
"Yup." I said quickly to happy to really care about anything.
"Where the hell are you?" Sam screamed sounding really scared.
"I'm out Sam. Don't have a panic attack. Jeez." I said leaning against the driver's door.
"We've called you like twenty times and there was no answer." Sam said just as scared.
"Who is it?" Ben asked between bites of his burger.
"Who's that? Liz, who's with you?" Dean screamed into the mic.
"It's Ben, Dean." I said in a bored tone.
"What? Why are you with Ben?" Dean said angrily.
"Dean shut up." I said getting angry at them for messing up what's left of my evening.
"No, You know what could happen if he hangs around you." Sam interjected.
"Should we tell them?" Ben asked quietly.
"Tell us what?" Dean said sounding angry.
"He remembers." I whispered.
"WHAT?" Dean screeched into the phone.
"We'll talk later Dean. I'm heading over to the motel now." I said wanting to get them off my back.
Dean started to say something but I jammed down the off button before he could say anything. "I suppose this means that the date's over." Ben said sliding off the hood and opened the passenger door and got in.
"Sadly yes. Dean's a bit of an over reactor." I said starting my car and headed for Ben's house. When we reached Ben's house I stopped him before he got out. "Hey Ben. I was wondering if maybe you wanted to come meet my dad officially tomorrow." I said nervously.
"Can't wait." He said with a smile just before he got out.
I drove off feeling ecstatic. I couldn't wait for tomorrow but my thoughts were attacked by Dean screaming into the window beside my head. "What the hell happened?"
I rolled my eyes and got out of the car ready for the heavens to rain down on me in Dean's wrath. "What happened was he saved my life." I said in an angry tone.
"Saved your life? From what?" Sam said being the only one who kept his cool.
"Apparently we forgot a shifter or it escaped. One or the other, but it was mad and tried to kill me." I said trying to calm down but failing.
"How exactly did he happen to remember?" Dean said quieter but still with the anger that he had before.
"Well my guess is it's pretty hard to watch yourself kill somebody when you know it's not you." I said in a smart elic tone.
"The shifter was Ben?" Sam asked before Dean could.
"Duh smart ones. No if you don't mind I need to try to get some sleep before I go help my dad with his physical therapy." I said walking passed them heading for the door that led to the motel hallway.
I walked into the room surprised that we had managed to keep it relatively clean besides the shattered chair. I knew I would wake up feeling that in the morning. I didn't even bother with anything after that. I slide my shoes off and curled up under the comforter and was asleep pretty quickly. I knew I was lucky when it came to sleeping. Most hunters got like twelve hours for a full week but I got at least six hours every night. Mom always said a good hunter is a well rested hunter and that's probably true but with constant danger there isn't a lot of time for sleep. Anyways I fell asleep and dreamed of a normal life.
I woke up by rolling off my bed and hitting the floor. I am, if you haven't guessed, slightly prone to bad luck. It was earlier than I expected so I decided that this morning I would treat myself to a real breakfast in a real restaurant. I got ready dressing in a dark pair of jeans and a white long sleeve shirt that was really soft and had a pattern on it in a cream color. After I was dressed it was time to do some final touches and my hair. I simply ran a comb through it and called it done. I looked in the mirror and decided that the slight waves of my hair looked good today and that doesn't happen often. I got in my car and headed for any good looking breakfast. I decided to stop at a Bob Evan's. As I was heading to the table that the hostess was leading me to I noticed my jacket on the back of one of the two chairs that was sitting at the small table. I looked around suspiciously but saw no one.
I quickly grabbed the hostess' sleeve and asked, "Who put that there?"
"Oh that was dropped off not too long ago. Isn't it yours? The man who dropped it off said a girl that looked like you would be coming in." The hostess said confused.
"It is. I just…didn't expect to see it here." I said looking at the jacket.
I had my breakfast and was out the door with my jacket on heading for Ben's house. It took hardly any time but my mind was still on the jacket that I had just gotten back. Ben was tapping on the window before I even knew I had stopped.
"You ok? You seem kinda out of it." He asked getting in and shutting the door.
"I just found my jacket…at Bob Evan's. The hostess said some guy dropped it off expecting me to be coming." I said still a little dazed.
"Let's talk about your mystery jacket finder later. We need to go or we'll be late." Ben said pointing to the clock.
I started to freak out and was speeding to just get to the hospital. The good news was if there would have been a wreck we would already be heading that way. We made it on time and turns out there was no need for my panic. We walked in quickly heading to my dad's room. I wasn't too sure how Dad would react to Ben. I kept my hopes up though trying to be optimistic. We walked in and Dad seemed…well…shocked.
"Who's that?" Dad asked with an eyebrow raised.
"This is Ben, Dad." I said trying to hide my nerves.
"And why is he here?" Dad asked with the same look on his face.
"Because…well…we're…are dating." I said struggling for words.
"Ben, right? What makes you think you can date my daughter?" Dad asked sharply.
"I…I don't know, sir." Ben said getting frigid.
"You don't know. Let me tell you something. You have no reason to think you can date my daughter. You shouldn't even look at her without-" I interrupted him quickly.
"Dad he saved my life. Now put a sock in it before you say something you wish you hadn't." I said through my teeth next to his ear.
"Well why didn't you say so! You know your mother and I met after she saved my life. I always thought that would be the way you found your man. Saving his ass but it was the other way around." Dad said a bit happier.
"Dad I was duck taped to a chair and I had to smash the chair for him to save my life. I say it was 50 50."I said trying to explain.
"Ready to go?" I nurse popped her head in.
We got Dad out of the bed, but we didn't really have to do anything Dad could get out by himself for a while. We went through the usual motions and a little while later we were heading down the hall but instead of taking a right we took a left.
"What's going on? Why aren't we going back to your room?" I asked confusion written on my face.
"The doc. says it's time I get some practice outside of the hospital." Dad said with a smile. "Going home today baby."
"Crap. I suggest when we get into the room you keep your shoes on. The chair might still be broken." I confessed.
We were heading to my car before I knew it. Dad didn't want help unless he fell on his butt so Ben hung around me and Dad was walking in front of us. I stuck my hands in my pockets feeling paper crumple as I did so. I did what any person would do if they found paper anywhere. I pulled it out and opened the folded paper. I quickly read it and shoved it in my pocket again. Ben was looking at me funny but must have known I didn't want to be questioned right now and held his tongue. Once we were all in the car and after Dad's little struggle with the seat belt I asked the question the paper had mentioned.
"Dad…what deal did you make?" I said looking at his face trying to pry as much information as I could from the expression that appeared.
"How did you?" dad asked stumbling for words.
"Does it matter right now Dad? What was the deal?" I said more fiercely.
"I-I made a deal to save you." He confessed starting at his hands.
"From what?" I asked quickly.
"It wasn't your mother's fault. She was watching you and I was supposed to go in after them. They found her and took both of you to that warehouse. I called to check on you guys like we always did but I didn't get an answer and I started looking for you both. I was too afraid to even think they had taken both of you. When I got the nerve to go to the warehouse…your mother…she…she was gone. You were alive but I knew you wouldn't make it to a hospital. That's when I heard the footsteps. I looked up to see a demon. He said he could save you. I asked about your mother and he said only one. I picked you because if your mother knew she would have hated me. I asked the demon to erase your memory of the warehouse. He did and we left before I called the authorities." Dad finished quietly.
I felt my throat close up and my eyes sting. I hurried to shove the tears away for a better time. "We…we better get going." I said starting the car and driving to Ben's house. I got out of the car with him when we stopped in front of his house. "I'm sorry. I should have done that when you weren't in the car." I said quickly.
"No problem. How about a movie tomorrow? Get your mind off monsters and demons for a bit." Ben said with understanding and caring in his eyes.
"Sounds good." I whispered almost trying to hide the tears that were coming up.
"Quite your tears. There's no need for them." Ben said giving me a quick kiss before he ran up the porch.
I went back into my car and drove to the motel. The car was silent and I couldn't stand it for too long. Luckily we got to the parking lot before I turned the radio on. We both got out but before Dad could say anything I gave him a hug. I stood there for a while just hugging him. When I let go I told him, "Don't lie to me ever again."
"I won't. I promise." Dad said quietly.
"Wait you made the deal when I was ten. Dad you only have-" But before I could finish Dad put his fingers over my lips. We walked in silence to the motel.
