Disclaimer: I do not own Supernatural or the characters but I have managed to make them into something they hunt but in a good way.

(This is part of an arc about a living doll that is killing people so each chapter will continue from the end of the one before it.)

Warning: This is based in an alternate universe where the boys are shapeshifter twins that were adopted by John and Mary after their real parents, close friends of the hunters who were killed by Gordon. They are later adopted by Bobby after the Winchesters are killed on a hunt. He does know they are shifters and has raised them as Hunters, like their adopted parents had been doing while teaching them to be good shifters and how to hide what they are from others.

No, the other hunters don't know they are shifters and they are good at acting human but are fully shapeshifters not human genetically but raised to behave as human by their parents. No, there will be no Lucifer, Michael, or vessel, or leviathan plots in this storyline just the boys hunting as Hunters and shifters.

Yes, there will be Wincest but I will keep it brief and romantic as possible. This isn't that kind of story.

Plot: The boys are hunting a creature killing on a campus and Sammy finally meets a nice girl.

"Hi." The brunette said coming up to the table, shyly. She had her hair pulled back in a French braid and wore gold rimmed glasses. She was at least 22, from what they could tell. She seemed nice. "I'm Tina. Tina Walker."

"Dean Singer." Dean said pushing Sam more in front of him, "This is my brother, Sam." Sam smiled embarrassed. Sam thought she was cute so he didn't mind his brother pushing him at the girl, this time at least.

"You are the new teacher's assistants for Professor Thomas Cedricson. I am in his class." Tina's eyes met Sam's and she smiled sweetly at him. Her eyes slid away shyly. "I noticed you, Sam."

"You did?" Sam gulped, he wasn't used to this kind of attention. Most girls weren't nearly this nice to him and she hadn't even made the 'twin' comment yet, a point in her favor.

"Yeah. I was surprised to see you here. You don't seem the type." Tina said smiling softly, trying to keep eye contact; she liked this guy. She hadn't expected to meet someone here. Her roommate had dragged her here, saying "I'm gonna get you a life if it kills you."

She hadn't expected to meet the taller man here.

"So, what are you doing here, Tina?" Dean said scooching over and making Sam have to slide closer to her, whether he liked it or not. This girl was definitely his type; Dean wouldn't let his repressed brother pass on this girl!

"My friend dragged me here." Tina's eyes went to the big busted blonde that had managed to get herself sandwiched between two frat boys at the bar. Tina just knew she was going to try to set her up with one and she so didn't want that. "Can I ask a favor?"

"Sure." Sam was curious, she looked unhappily at the bar and her friend now. He saw the guys talking to her friend and figured out why. He knew the feeling.

"Can you pretend to be interested in me and hang out with me so she won't try to set me up with one of those Neanderthals? I would appreciate it. Trust me, you won't have to play the role long. I'm sure she will be leaving with one of them shortly; it's what she does, a lot. She's a great friend but a little oversexed to be honest. Please, Sam?" Tina begged desperately, her friend was pointing her way now, and they were looking at her appreciatively. Tina paled, ugh!

"He'd love to." Dean said smugly, and Sam blushed but took her hand, letting her pull him to the bar. He slid an arm around her shoulder to get the message to the others she wasn't available anymore. He felt the tension slide out of her shoulders, and smiled widely, dimples flaring briefly. Tina saw it and was taken by surprise with the urge to kiss him. That was a new urge and she blushed looking away in embarrassment, hoping that maybe he hadn't seen her look.

He had seen it.

As they walked to the bar area, Tina said, "Thank you for doing this, Sam. I know you aren't interested in me so I appreciate the help."

"But I am interested in you, Tina. So it's not really a problem, you don't have to thank me." Sam admitted, he did like this one. She really was what she appeared to be, nice and smart.

"Oh, you are?" Tina said and smiled wider, meeting his eyes now, smiling softer now. "Well, that's different then. Want a drink?"

"Sure, whatever you're having." Sam nodded and they sat at a couple free seats.

"What will you have?" The bartender asked.

"Two beers please." Tina ordered. She didn't drink the hard stuff so beer was as strong as she got and one was her limit.

They got their beers and found a table to talk alone together. Her roommate left with both men on her arm.

"There she goes." Tina chuckled, Sam saw she had a pretty smile, he liked it. "Glad I got cab fare."

"We'll run you home. You don't have to take a cab. If you don't mind, that is. "Sam offered, he wanted her to stay. He wanted to spend time with her. He had finally found someone to like.

"Okay, I don't mind at all." Tina smiled and kissed his cheek. "Thanks, Sam."

Sam blushed again, she was perfect.

They talked for hours about her and Sam lost track of the time. Dean picked up a girl and told Sam he'd be back , that happy-go-lucky grin on his face. He was clearly going back to their room with his newest bimbo and was glad Sam had met someone he liked.

"We'll be here. Hey, Dean, can we run her home later?" Sam asked smiling, knowing Dean would agree to it.

"Sure thing, Sammy. Be back later, don't leave." Dean threw him the look he always did. The 'stay here and don't go anywhere, you're my only backup here, man' look.

"I won't. I'll just be here with Tina." Sam said and Dean took off to the car, leaving them alone. The music started and Sam asked, "You wanna dance?" He looked at the dance floor. It was a slow song, he could dance to that music pretty well. He wasn't so good at the faster stuff.

"Sure." She let Sam lead her to the dance floor and hold her fairly closely, keeping a decent distance between them. She pushed in closer, liking the contact better that way. She could feel his muscular body beneath the loose clothing and marveled at how sculpted that body felt, so many muscles. She bet he had a terrific body under those clothes. She shook her head in embarrassment now; she was thinking bad thoughts. She had just met the guy. Hard to believe she had just met the guy and was already wondering what he looked like without a shirt, bad Tina! So unlike herself.

"Penny for your thoughts?" Sam noticed her eyeing him appreciatively and looking away in embarrassment. He felt good now, she liked his body. It was a start, a really good one.

Not many women took the time to appreciate him like that. Well, not the nice girls at least. It was all the slutty ones ever noticed. Ironically if you pulled out his mind, they could have cared less, all they wanted was a hot body to have sex with. Sam hated those types of girls. No appreciation for a good form, none at all. Like his. He had a brain, too, you know.

"Nothing." She muttered. Man, she was being all kinds of stupid here. What was wrong with her? She finds a great guy and all she can think of is how hot his body must be under his clothes. Wow, she was her roommate now, ugh. She had to stop that thinking.

"Didn't seem like nothing." Sam pushed. She was cute when she was shy.

"Well…" Tina bit her lip and admitted, not looking at him. "I was actually thinking you probably had a great body under those clothes, it felt like it anyway." She chuckled quietly, "I am not trying to pick you for sex, Sam. You did ask what I was thinking. I don't normally act this way, honest."

She kept her eyes from him. This was embarrassing enough. Sam laughed, a deep throated sexy laugh that made her catch her breath and look up at him from the sound of it, smiling a little now in return. At least she hadn't offended him. That was good.

"I appreciate the compliment, Tina. I don't mind." Sam said kissing her cheek, "I haven't been appreciated that way for a while now, it is very flattering for you to see me that way, it really is. It felt nice for once."

"Good, I thought that might offend you or give you the wrong idea." Tina said a little more confident now. He was making her feel more comfortable and at ease now. It felt nice, too.

"So what are you studying, Tina, what's your major?" Sam asked and she smiled up at him.

"I'm a physics Grad student. One more year to go." Tina said proudly and Sam smiled, she was so smart, too.

"Congratulations, Tina. Bet your folks are proud." Sam said.

"Yeah, they are. I already got an offer from college to teach it." Tina said happily.

"Going to do it?" Sam asked.

"Not sure. I kind of wanted to work at NASA or someplace like that." Tina admitted. She was flattered but it wasn't what she ultimately wanted to do with her life.

"That would be good field for you. I'd hold out if I were you." Sam advised, she shouldn't settle for teaching when she wasn't wanting to do it. She still had choices, she was young enough. Smart enough, too.

"I probably will." She hadn't wanted to admit it to her folks or her teachers but that was what she had been thinking lately. He must have read her mind.

"Good for you." Sam encouraged.

"Thank, Sam." Tina said smiling, her eyes seeing Dean entering the bar now. "Think your ride is back."

Sam turned to see Dean, feeling disappointed. She would want to go now, he was sure of it.

Dean waved them over and they came, both looking a little droopy. They expected him to want to go now and didn't want to go yet. Dean shrugged and had them sit down.

"We can stay a while." Dean said smiling, throwing his brother a wink. 'I got this, bro.' written in that look.

"So, what did you major in, Sam?" Tina asked, all eyes for Sam now, not ignoring Dean but her eyes were being drawn to him instinctively. Dean didn't mind, he saw how her attention was making his brother feel and he wanted him to feel that way. So he let them be. Sam was happy and she seemed nice. He had gotten laid and now he wanted to drink some more. It was a good night to be had for all.

"Biotechnology." Sam lied, it had been Criminal Law but since he was TA'ing for Physics professor, Biotechnology seemed a better choice.

"And you, Dean?" She asked and Dean smiled, lie ready, "BioChem." He said smoothly.

"Good fields." She nodded in approval. No wonder the Prof chose them to be TA's, they were well suited to his teaching criteria.

"Yes, they are." Sam's eyes looked into hers, making her insides feel all fluttery.

She leaned in and kissed him before she lost her nerve…again. He saw her pulling away and pulled her back, kissing her a little firmer now, not pressuring her, letting her lead the kiss. Soon enough she pulled away and looked shy again. Wow, that man could kiss. It gave her ideas she so shouldn't listen to so she decided they should probably head home. Her hormones finished that sentence with "to his room to finish what those sexy lips had started" while her common sense said "before I do something stupid and scare him off."

"I should go home now." Her eyes spoke of her true wants but they both knew it wasn't a good idea so they did the opposite of what they wanted. They decided to take her home.

When they got to her apartment building, Sam walked her to the door, suddenly nervous.

"It was nice meeting you, Sam. Guess I'll see you tomorrow." She felt shy now too. Boy, was she being schizo tonight, Tina reflected in embarrassment.

"Yes, I'll be there." Sam nodded, moving closer, not feeling so shy now. He wanted to kiss her one last time. A hand went to her face, stroking her jawline and up to her cheek. He took his time, making sure she was open to his kiss.

Her eyes closed and met his lips halfway and they kissed deeper than before but kept it closed mouth, sort of. Her hands slid to his chest and neck, pulling him in closer, liking that hard body against her. She let go and he moved away. Both smiled widely now.

"Would you be interested in lunch with me tomorrow?" Sam asked, wanting to spend time with her while they were here.

"I'd like that. How about after class we do that?" Tina suggested, eyes bright, smile still wide.

"Perfect. See you then, Tina. I had a good time tonight." Sam said stepping down the steps to go.

"Me too. See you tomorrow." Tina said, taking the knob to open the door to the building.

"Bye." Sam said walking away now and heading to the car.

"Bye." Tina whispered and smiled more, closing the door behind her and heading to her apartment. She heard no noise. Sheila must have went to their place for the night. She dressed for bed and went to sleep smiling, thinking of Sam. So hot, so smart…so nice.

As they drove to the house, Dean couldn't resist teasing his brother just a little bit. The guy was smiling way too much not to.

"So, why didn't you invite her back to the room, Sammy? She seemed interested enough." Dean was only teasing, although she had seemed very interest but Sammy wasn't like that so he knew it wouldn't have happened anyway. Sammy wouldn't let it.

Sam rolled his eyes and shrugged, he had been tempted but no, he wouldn't do that. Dean knew that and Dean was teasing him. She couldn't blame him, Sam felt so good right now that annoyance was beyond him right now, the happy feeling too strong. "Nah, got a date for lunch with her tomorrow, though."

Dean smiled happily at him now. "Good for you, Sammy! I knew you had it in you. After class, I assume?" Dean knew the class got out at noon.

"Yeah. You don't mind eating alone tomorrow afternoon, do you?" Sam realized that Dean only had lunch with him lately.

"Nah, I will get Thom to have lunch with me instead. I got to talk to him about some of the relatives and friends of the victims, gotta start that list so we can check it out. Don't need you for this part. I do need help interviewing witnesses though." Dean knew Sam would help with that.

"No problem, I can help with that. We'll split the list if it's too long a list. If it's short, we can work it as a team." Sam suggested. Already looking forward to his lunch with Tina.

"Good thinking, Sammy." Dean said. He grabbed the phone and dialed their Dad.
