Epilogue. 4 Years Later. June 13, 2014.

Bela was fixing breakfast for Delia and the almost 4 year old was chatting up a storm. The girl definitely knew how to talk. She already had quite the mouth on her, sometimes Bela felt as if she was talking to a 10 year old instead. They heard a car pull up in the drive.

"Mommy he's here!" she yelled.

"Shh quiet down will you?" Bela said, but she laughed anyways. Dean opened the door and Delia had already gotten down from the kitchen chair and ran to the hall before he made it in all the way.

"You're home!"

"Hey princess." Dean said, picking her up.

"Hi daddy…guess what."

"What?"

"Guess what today is."

"No clue." Dean said, as he carried her into the kitchen. "Hey you." Dean said to Bela. She smiled back at him.

"Ugh. Daaad."

"What, am I missing something?"

"You forgot already?" she asked, giving him a look that was definitely something she got from her mother.

He grinned. "Nope. In fact, I brought you something."

Bela shook her head. Those two were impossible together. Who knew what Dean had up his sleeve.

"You did?"

"Yep." Dean said,

Bela heard the front door shut again. She shook her head, smiling as the other man walked in.

"Great, now she gets to be spoiled by both of you." Bela said.

"Whatever, like you don't give her whatever she wants." Dean said, grinning. Delia then noticed the other visitor.

"You're here too? This is an awesome birthday!"

Past. 5 Years Earlier.

Hospital.

Dean looked over at Delia once to make sure she was okay and then made his way into the hall.

"Hello Dean."

"Cas? Nice timing. You come to see the youngest Winchester?" Dean smiled. Cas did too, after all it was nice to see Dean this happy about something.

"Actually no." The angel said. "I uh…"

"What? What is it now?"

Castiel stepped aside, letting Dean see the person behind him. Dean couldn't speak.

"Hey Dean."

"Wha..Sammy?" Dean asked quietly.

"I am sorry it took so long." Cas told him. "After our conversation on the way to Bobby's, I didn't want to say goodbye like that. I did what I could until I figured out a way to get him back. Someone who would willingly throw himself into the deepest part of the pit for the world doesn't deserve to stay there."

Sam walked over and Dean pulled him into a hug. "No catches?"

Castiel shook his head. "I had some trouble…making sure his soul was intact. I had to get some help from Death actually."

"How? I mean.."

"Dean, just don't ask so many questions." Castiel said. "I promise, nothing to worry about here"

"Thanks Cas. Seriously."

"Yeah, thanks." Sam added.

"I have to go back up now. Things are still chaotic, but we're dealing. Don't worry it may be against the rules but I will be keeping an eye out for all of you."

Dean nodded. Castiel disappeared.

"Dean?" Bela called, a little worried when she woke up and he was gone.

Dean looked back at the room. "So uh…perfect timing Sammy. Wanna meet your niece?"

Sam smiled. "Yeah. Yeah I do."

Dean walked back in to the room.

"Hey, are you okay you were go…" Bela trailed off. "Oh my God."

"Hey." Sam said. "Sorry for the surprise."

"What? How?"

"Cas is awesome." Dean said. "Not sure how he did it, but he did."

Bela smiled. She'd asked Dean not to give up if he really wanted to go find a way to get Sam back, and now he didn't have to. Seemed like things were working themselves out better than they could've hoped for.

Dean heard the small cries and went to pick Delia up. She quieted down immediately.

"Sam do you want to…"

"No uh…maybe a little later. Trust me, I'd break her."

Dean laughed. "You're not going to break her, but whatever you say."

"Didn't expect anyone else to see me like this." Bela said, looking a little embarrassed.

Sam smiled. "No really you look great."

"You're right Dean…his poker face is terrible." she said.

They all laughed a little at that.

Present. 2015

"Uncle Sammy!"

"Hi you. You're bigger."

"Really? I grew?"

It'd been a couple months since Sam had been around. Dean was left for 2 weeks after Sam had called about a case.

"Yeah you did."

Delia's smile grew larger. "Did you hear?" She asked her parents loudly. "I grew!"

"Well, guess trying to keep her quiet is pointless." Bela said, giving up.

"What? She's excited." Dean said, smirking.

"Yeah well I just now got Alec to take his nap. It took me 2 hours you know."

Dean laughed. "Sorry. Developed our bad sleeping habits I guess."

"Yeah it seems that way. So, nothing major?"

"Nope, small little shifter problem in Indiana. No big deal." Dean answered.

"Good." Bela said, kissing him. They both noticed Delia was into one of her long winded stories. Poor Sam…though he didn't seem to mind.

"Told you I'd make it back."

"I know. I believed you."

Past. End of June 2010.
Dean and Bela's Home.

They'd been out of the hospital for 2 weeks, and Bobby had already stopped in for a visit, especially after learning about Sam. Hell Jo had even came by too. Sam was ready to get back at hunting.

"Are you going too?" Bela asked. She'd finally gotten a little bit of sleep last night. She was starting to get her energy back up.

"I uh..it feels too soon." Dean said. Bela nodded.

"You're right about that." Sam said coming into the family room.

Dean looked at him.

"You're not coming."

"Sam it's okay. I told him he should. After all, it's what you guys do. I get it." Bela said.

"Well I'm serious. You promised."

"Yeah, because you were going to die. I mean, I get that I should probably wait a little while longer…"

"Alright I know you're not gonna stay out of the life forever Dean…but uh, take some time off okay? I want you guys to just stay and do this together. It's always what I wanted for you Dean. I know mom did too."

"So what, stop by in another couple months?" Dean asked. Bela nodded that was good with her.

"Nope. A year…I mean I'll stop by before then, but you're not coming with me for at least a year." Sam told him.

"Really? That long."

"Seriously Dean, take the time, see if you like this normalcy. Then next year after things settle down, we'll go back out."

Dean and Bela both agreed to it. Dean knew Sam was right, and he wanted to be here with Bela and Delia. After all in this life he wasn't taking it for granted.

"Alright fine. Just don't not call if something happens you need a partner. Call me, call Bobby, hell call Jo she could use someone to hunt with…just as long as you call before you get yourself into trouble." Dean said.

"Got it."

Present, 2014.

Dean smiled. "So, he's seriously asleep?"

"Yes, don't you dare wake him either. He's already far past nap time, and at this point he's not going to want to sleep this evening. And her…well I figure she just isn't taking one today."

"One day won't kill her."

"Guess not.

A Few Hours Later

Bela had improved her cooking skills only the tiniest bit, so she stuck with store bought cake and food. They had a small little get together and Bobby, as well as Jo, showed up later.

"Hey guys."

Delia smiled at them.

"Aunt Jojo!"

"Hey kid. Happy Birthday." The blonde hunter said. "Seriously, how did you guys beat me here?" she asked Sam.

"Dean drives too fast." Sam smiled at her.

Jo shook her head. "Yeah."

Dean watched Sam and Jo go off and talk. He and Bela had this bet going on about the two of them. Dean wasn't an idiot after all, and Sam and Jo thought they were keeping their whole 'relationship' thing a secret. Everyone else knew better. However, no one said a word.

Bela finally heard Alec wake up and went to get him.

Delia smiled as she watched her mom carry her brother in. As much as Daddy's little princess pretended to be annoyed with him, she really liked the little guy. Alec would be 2 in September. Once downstairs Dean took him, all smiles.

Past.

May 2011.

After nearly a year Dean was ready to go back at it, and Sam was coming that week to meet up with him. So he and Bela..mostly Bela, decided to take advantage of their time together this week. Dean had even agreed to go to a nice dinner as well. After a million background checks on the 18 year old girl, they finally left the almost 1 year old Delia with a sitter for the night.

Restaurant.

"You know I was thinking…I may have a lot of money saved up now, but eventually it's not going to be enough. Maybe I should…"

"Oh please tell me you don't want to get back into being a 'purveyor of powerful occult objects?"

"No Dean." She said, rolling her eyes. "Look you got to try the whole normal job thing for a little while."

"So you want to go do what exactly?"

"Actually, I got a job offer already."

"What? Where?"

"That upscale auction house a few miles out. I was trying to unclutter my stuff…I sold a few things, and for some reason the owner was impressed at my knowledge and wants to hire me. Only 4 hour days and paperwork I can do at home. I mean, I'll get paid to tell people how much their things are worth? Seems good to me."

"Yeah. So then you're good with the sitter for Delia?"

Bela sighed. "Well…"

"Hey she'll be fine. Normal people do it everday."

"Yeah well normal people don't worry about the past biting them in the ass." Bela commented.

He nodded. "Seriously though, she's okay. I mean, we did every test available."

"Yeah. Guess I will call them back in the morning…tell them I can start next week."

"Look at us, talking about jobs and sitters…all while I go hunting again."

"Seems as good as it's going to get then."

He nodded.

Impala. Night.

After dinner they went out in the impala for a while, sitting against the car and having a few drinks. It was what they both needed. Bela didn't care for the romantics really, this right here was just fine.

Dean finally turned towards her. "Alright…uh I kinda wanna say something here."

"Okay? What is it?"

"Look, nothing with us has ever been simple. I mean, we pretty much are doing things backwards and in fast forward mode too…so I thought seeing that we've lived together, had a kid together…and even died and came back to life together, maybe it's time we add a little something more to that."

"Dean?"

He was quiet for a minute, fidgeting a little too.

"Dean seriously what is going on?"

He finally reached into his pocket and pulled out something.

"Ok screw it, I'm just not good at this chick flick stuff here, sorry. Here's the thing…I've went from being annoyed with you even though you were hot, to wanting to beat you at your own game, to wanting to kill you, and to hating you, then to some sort of friendship, until finally I couldn't help but fall in love with you. And I know you've done the same here."

"Hmm not sure if I ever hated you as much as you did me." She added, smirking.

"Hush." He said, smirking. "Anyways…I know I don't want anything to ever change how I feel. So in order to make sure you realize that I'm in this for the rest of our lives, even if they're shorter than most…I really want you to be my wife." Dean finally got out, lifting the ring in front of her hand.

Bela's mouth shot open, then closed quickly. She tried to tell herself she'd seen that one coming, but she hadn't. She couldn't really speak. Marriage? Well…she'd never really thought herself the type. Then again, she hadn't seen herself the motherly type either and that was going just fine.

"Bela…you wanna say something here?" Dean asked, nervous. He'd never expected he'd do this. I mean sure a kid and family, but this was totally new to him. Once he'd made up his mind though he just went with it.

She looked up at him. Oh yeah, he was waiting on her. She decided to enjoy the moment though, it was rare Dean looked so scared.

She glanced at him again. "Dean I…"

"Look it's fine you know, you don't have to say anything…I can totally take all that back." Dean started saying. Bela couldn't help herself, she finally laughed.

"What?" he asked.

"Yes."

I'm sorry? Wait, like 'yes' as in…

"As in are you going to just sit there or put the bloody ring on my finger Dean?"

He grinned and let out a breath. He slid it onto her ring finger.

"That was mean." He said.

"Yeah, yeah it was." She smiled.

"I didn't hear you say it."

"What? I said yes."

"I need more clarity."

"Your serious?"

"Yep. Say it."

"Dean."

"Nope, say it. All of it. The whole answer."

She rolled her eyes. "Fine…okay. Yes, I will marry you."

He kissed her. "Thank you."

"You're crazy." She said.

"Yeah, I've heard.

Present. June 2014.

Bobby had hit the road that evening after a call from an old friend asking him about a case. Jo and Sam left after that, something about a hunt in Missouri.

"Finally asleep." Dean said. One at a time he'd finally gotten the two kids to go to sleep. Bela was right, it was quite the chore. However, the sugar Delia had gotten from the cake seemed to help her crash a little. "So, Mrs. Winchester…want to take advantage of that?"

"Mmm how about we actually sleep and work on taking advantage of it the rest of the week since you decided to stay a while?"

"Yeah..that sounds good too." He smiled. He walked over to her and picked her up, carrying her up the stairs.

"Dean."

"What, I'm just helping you out."

"Uh huh. I was serious about sleeping."

"Yeah so am I." he said.

Past. Late December 2011.

After a very small wedding that summer they'd fallen into a routine already with Sam and Dean hunting together part of the time and Dean would come home when he could. He was great about it actually. He didn't miss any of the most important events in his daughter's life. He knew eventually there'd be school events or sports he'd miss every once in a while but it would be fine.

They'd all gone to Bobby's for an early Christmas for the first time. Then Dean, Sam, and Bela had went back to Pennsylvania on Christmas Eve. It was Delia's second Christmas and Bela was again making sure she was spoiled. Dean loved it though. None of them had ever really done Christmas. He and Sam always had fun with it, sitting around with beers and watching games. Bela usually had a glass of wine and watched some old movie. Now days though, none of the hunters took advantage of their time together.

Sam was fast asleep in the guest room, and Bela had loved the fact her house was so quiet. Delia was also sound asleep, leaving Dean and Bela to a night by themselves.

Once in their room they quickly got rid of shirts and pants. Dean drank her in like he did every time, the woman had a baby last year but it had taken her only a few months of healthy eating and exercise and she practically looked like it'd never happened.

"You're gorgeous."

She sighed into his touch. "You're not all that bad looking yourself." She smirked.

Dean laughed into the kiss. Bela pulled him around and pushed him towards the bed. They quickly got rid of the rest of the clothing.

After a few minutes of foreplay Dean looked up into her eyes again, grasping her hand.

"You know, I was thinking."

"Oh great."

He ignored her. "Seeing as how Delia could get a little lonely, and I being the awesome older brother that I am…well I was uh.."

"Dean are you saying you want another child?"

He smiled a little. "Not if you don't. No pressure here okay?"

She smiled. "Funny little thing about that…seems we're on the same page."

"What? Wait are you..?"

"No. Not yet."

"So you want to then?" he asked, surprised.

She nodded. "It sounds crazy."

"Yeah, it does. Kinda nice to actually plan it though."

"Yeah."

Dean rolled them over and kissed her slowly, then pulled back. "There's something incredibly sexy about wanting to have another baby with you."

"Good thing I was prepared then." Bela said.

"You were?"

"Yeah, no pills for a month."

"How'd you know I would want to?" Dean asked.

"Mmm after I thought about it, I heard you talking to Sam."

He laughed. "Wow. Well then, what do you say we work on it?" Dean grinned. Bela smiled and pulled him down on top of her.

And Dean was pretty damn sure it was that night Alec was made. And there was totally something special about planning to have a baby with Bela, and making love too as they'd been doing for a long time now.

Present. 2014.

"You okay?" Dean asked, turning the lamp off next to the bed.

"Yeah, great."

"So, save this date in your head. June 2028.

"2028? Why? We're already married." Bela asking sarcastically.

"Very funny. I've just…I don't want to hunt forever. So I picked a retirement date. I'll be almost 50."

"June…what for Delia's 18th?"

"Yeah. Just seemed like a good idea."

"Huh. Guess so. So, can you handle retirement?"

"I don't know, can you?"

"You only needed me on 2 cases so far. What do I have to retire from?"

"Regular work?"

"Right…well with everything saved up from the sales over the years…."

"And the stealing before that."

She rolled her eyes. "Yes, that too…anyways, I figure we'll be just fine if I quit in a couple years."

"Ha, knew you didn't want to do a real job that long."

She shrugged. "Yes well there was a time that I wouldn't be satisfied staying at home like this. Now, I actually look forward to just being here with you, Delia, and Alec."

He nodded. "Yeah, me too."

"However, I fully expect we'll keep each other on our toes."

"How do you suggest we do that?"

"Oh you know…a little bit of training, maybe shooting things every once in a while, sparring a little…I wouldn't want us to get rusty."

"Good thing I turned the basement into a hunter's playground then."

"One of your best ideas yet. I mean, shooting range and punching bags...and weapons? No one would ever know how incredibly dangerous you are." He teased.

"Cute Dean."

"Yes I am."

"This is going to come off far too sentimental….but you have no idea how amazed I am that all this happened to us. I mean, both on the road to hell, and still we could come back from that and have all this? I just…never thought this would be my life." She said.

"I know. I don't give a crap if it was destiny or the angels' plan. I'm happy with it."

"Me too."

The End! Let me know what you think? Even if you've never reviewed!
