CHAPTER 35

"I can't believe I'm actually about to do this." Leigh said as she sat on her bed after Sam helped her pack.

"You don't have to. If you're going to regret it, then I want you to stay." He said.

"No, I want to; it's just, a lot, ya know."

"I know." He said and pressed a kiss to her forehead.

"I guess I should go and tell everyone." She said. Sam nodded and stood up. He took her hand and led her downstairs. Everyone was down there waiting for them already, to say goodbye to the Winchesters.

"Hey." Phoebe smiled at the couple suggestively.

"Hey." Leigh said nervously. "So, um, guys, I am so, so grateful for everything you've done for me."

"Well, you're welcome." Piper said sweetly.

"Yeah, of course." Paige added.

"Well, Sam asked me to go with him and Dean, and I said yes."

"What?" Leo asked.

"Am I not allowed to do that, as your charge?" Leigh asked.

"No, no, you can. If you need me just call and I'll be able to hear you anywhere in the world. I'm just shocked."

"Yeah, me too." Phoebe said.

"I'm not." Coop said smugly "I told you there was something there. I think you should say thank you."

"Thank you, Coop." Sam and Leigh said together and rolled their eyes. Coop smiled.

"Welcome to the family." Dean said, patting her on the back.

"Dean, be careful!" Sam shouted seeing Leigh wince as Dean clapped her on her injured shoulder.

"Oh, sorry." Dean flashed Leigh an apologetic yet goofy smile.

"Its fine." She replied earnestly. Sam stood next to her and slipped an arm around her protectively.

"So, you're really leaving?" Piper asked.

"Yeah, I'm really leaving. There's nothing keeping me in San Francisco, so why not?" Leigh replied.

"Sammy, Leigh, we should probably hit the road soon. We gotta take Leigh to Bobby's and if we leave now we can make it by tomorrow morning." Dean said.

"Yeah, alright." Sam said and went back upstairs to get Leigh's suitcase.

Phoebe walked up to Leigh and hugged her.

"Goodbye Leigh. It was great meeting you." She said. "Make sure you come and visit."

"Definitely." Leigh smiled and turned to Leo and Piper. "Thank you guys, for letting me stay in your house and looking out for me."

"Anytime." Piper smiled.

Sam came back down the stairs, stopped beside Leigh and gave her a peck on the cheek.

"You ready sweetie?" he asked.

"Just a sec." she replied and walked over to Paige and gave her a hug.

"You be good to her Sam." Paige told him.

"Of course." Sam said and gave Paige a smile.

Leigh hugged Coop, and whispered into his ear "Thank you, Coop."

"Okay, I'm good." Leigh said as she reached Sam. She turned around one last time "Bye guys." They all waved back to her and Sam carried her suitcase out to the Impala.

Paige walked Dean out and stopped just outside the door. She hugged him and pulled him into a deep kiss. She didn't want him to go, and Dean didn't want to leave, but he was a hunter and he had to choose need over want.

"I'll see you soon." Dean whispered into Paige's ear and she couldn't help but let a single tear fall.

Leigh smiled watching Paige and Dean, she was glad they found each other. Sam put Leigh's suitcase in the boot of the Impala and then walked over to her. He put his hands on her hips and kissed her. Sam smiled, then pinned Leigh to the Impala.

Sam kissed her with enough enthusiasm to convince her of anything. All her second thoughts disappeared. They knew this was the time when 'I love you's would be said, but they weren't ready for that yet. They were close, but it wasn't time. Sure, they were worried about the prophecy, but they'd think about that when it happened. For now, they had each other. That was good enough for them.

A/N: There it is the end of the story. I chose that quote at the start because it basically said what the story was about. Also, I've started a sequel! I hope y'all enjoyed it, thank you for the reviews!
