CHAPTER 32

Dean ran up to the attic to Paige. He saw her sitting there with her sisters and he couldn't help himself. He wrapped her up in his arms and planted a kiss on her lips.

"Not that I'm complaining, but what was that for?" Paige asked once the kiss ended.

"Thank you. I could've been killed in there."

"Well, I'm glad you weren't."

"Yeah, me too." He smiled and kissed her once more. "It was definitely not fun and I never want to do it again."

"I hope you don't." she said and leaned into his chest. "I was…I was actually pretty scared." She admitted. Dean didn't say anything; instead he just kissed the top of her head.

He had been scared too. Not just because he could've died, but because he hated the thought of not seeing Paige again. It was the constant thought in his head; I've got to see Paige.

Paige grabbed his hand and led him out of the attic and to her room.

"Finally!" Leo exclaimed when Leigh stepped into the dining room, followed by Sam.

"Where were you?" Coop asked Leigh. "And what happened to your shoulder?" he asked, seeing the bloodstained rag that was once the sleeve of Sam's shirt.

"I kinda, shimmered to where the action was." She shrugged shyly.

"What, why?" Leo asked.

"Good question." Sam said, facing her.

"Why the hell do you think!" she shouted at Sam. "You were meant to stay here!"

"I can take care of myself." he said calmly.

"And I can't?" she asked, slightly offended. He just pointed to her shoulder and she rolled her eyes. He understood where she was coming from though. If Dean or her ran off when they weren't supposed to and put themselves in danger, he would go after them too.

"It'll heal soon." She said surely.

"You don't know that." Sam said with concern.

"Actually, you do." Coop interjected.

"We found out who your parents are. Your father was an upper-level demon called Sarpedon, but the sisters vanquished him, sorry." He added sincerely.

"It's cool. He was a demon." Leigh replied and Coop continued.

"Your mother was a Sapient. It comes from the word Sapientissimo, which is Latin for 'omniscient'. We think that's why you knew the code." Coop explained.

"Well, what happened to her?" Leigh asked fearfully.

"She, uh, she died giving birth to you." Leo gave her a sad smile.

"Just my luck I guess." Leigh said sadly and Sam placed his hand on her back, not knowing how to support her.

"She was put under a love spell by the demon specifically so you could be born and fulfil the prophecy." Leo said. Leigh nodded.

"Okay, so, my mom was all 'omniscient' and my dad was evil." She said casually. "So, are energy balls, telekinesis, rapid healing and being a walking Encyclopaedia my only powers?"

"Well, eventually you'll have the summoning power which is basically like Paige's power to orb things to her. You'll be able to draw or transport things to you, but that power is a strong one and probably won't activate for a while." Coop assured her.

"Okay, well, thanks for everything." Leigh said to them "Now, go see your wives." She added with a smile. The two smiled and obeyed her. She walked into the kitchen and took an icepack out of the freezer. She wrapped it in a tea towel and placed it gingerly on her shoulder.

"Let me take care of that for you." Sam said from behind her.

"No, I got it." She said not facing him "Besides, it'll heal."

"I know it's gonna heal, L, but at least let me bandage it until it does." Sam said sincerely.

"Fine." she sighed and finally looked at him. He'd washed the blood off of his face at the restaurant. "It kinda hurts anyway."

He took her free hand and waited for her to pull it back. When she didn't, he led her slowly to the foyer. He grabbed his duffle bag and took out the whiskey, gauze and a bandage. Leigh sat on the couch and Sam sat beside her.

He looked at her face and felt a pang of guilt. What if she didn't trust him again? What if he'd screwed it up with her?

"I'm only just noticing how intimate this is." Leigh said but it didn't come out as light as she'd hoped. Sam's fingers were rough against her skin, but it felt perfect.

"There." Sam said quietly as he finished with the bandage.

"Thank yo—" she looked up at Sam but was stopped in the middle of her thanks by Sam's lips. She shivered as their lips moved in perfect sync.

Sam deepened the kiss. He knew he'd be leaving soon, and he knew he didn't want to.
