There he was standing right in front of me my best friend, he wanted me dead. I screamed and cried even though no one could hear my screams. Shaun, Dean and Sam still pounded on the door. Greg grabbed me and pushed me out the window just as Dean yelled. "Stand back, I'm going to break the door down."

Greg smiled climbing out the window, I was so scared I just took off running. Greg tackled me to the ground. "Now Nikki you'll be punished for that too."

I heard the motel bathroom door collapse. Shaun ran over to the window. "Nikki!"

I looked up at him, tears came down my face. "Shaun!" I cried out, he couldn't hear though.

Greg grabbed me and pulled me along with me kicking at him. Shaun jumped out of the window and ran for us, he tackled Greg to the ground. "You son of a bitch. No one touches my sister." Shaun punched Greg hard in the face.

I crawled away from the scene, Sam and Dean came out with their guns in hand as Shaun and Greg rolled around on the ground. Dean stood over them. "Knock it off!"

They pulled apart and Sam pointed his gun at Greg. "Greg you need to be put back to rest. Dean, Shaun, and I will help you with that."

Greg stood up. "Okay but..." He trailed off grabbing me and holding a knife to my throat. "You put me to rest, I'm taking her with me."

Shaun looked at me. "Let her go Greg."

He moved closer but Greg put some pressure on the knife. "Stay back or I'll do it."

Shaun stepped back. "Okay Greg listen to this one. If you were alive right now you wouldn't want to be doing this. Nichole was your best friend, you saved her life, you cared about her that much. I'm greatful for that and you should be too. You were a hero Greg. Don't throw that all away tonight. Don't kill your best friend. You wouldn't want that."

Greg pondered over this for a couple seconds. "You know what..." He put the knife down. "Your...wrong." He put the knife to my neck and only got to cut it slightly before Sam broke his neck. He fell to the ground and so did I.

Shaun came over. "Nikki. Hey sweetie. You with me?"

I nodded slightly looking at Greg's lifeless body yet again. Why does this happen to me? Dean came over and checked my injury. "It's not bad. A band-aid should stop the bleeding." He said looking at me.

Shaun smiled and helped me stand up. Sam frowned. "Dean and I will take him back to his grave. Will you be alright with her?"

Shaun nodded. "Yep, I'll calm her down and let her get some rest."

Sam smiled. "Okay we'll be back in a few."

Shaun took me into the motel room and I went over to the bed and laid down. Shaun cleaned my cut for me, then he sighed. "Nikki. Are you alright? I mean cause of Greg and all this is the second time you had to see him die."

I looked at him. "I guess." Hey my voice was back after all that my voice is back.

He smiled. "There's that beautiful voice of yours. Where's it been hiding?" He asked.

I giggled. "I don't know."

He put a band-aid on my cut. "I was really scared tonight Nick. I thought he was really going to kill you and I'd never see you again. I'm so happy your okay." He said as he kissed my head.

I frowned. "Shaun?"

"Yeah?" He asked.

I looked at him. "Why...Why couldn't it have been me to die that day?"

Shaun's expression went from concern to panic. "Why would you say that?"

I sat up. "Shaun, I was supposed to die that day. That truck was supposed to hit me, not Greg. Greg saved me...but why couldn't he have just let me go? He'd still be here and I wouldn't have to live day after day with the guilt of killing my best friend."

Shaun wrapped me in a hug. "Hey it wasn't your fault, Greg did what he thought was the best idea. He wanted you to live that day, he wanted you to live your life even if he didn't live his. He wanted you safe. You shouldn't be guilty, Greg loved you and he's in a better place. Don't listen to what that zombie told you, that wasn't Greg talking and you know it."

I sniffled. "I wish it would have been me that day instead of him."

Shaun pulled me away from him and looked in my eyes. "Nichole Winchester! Don't you ever say that again! You hear me never!" He was almost yelling it at me.

I frowned. "He'd still be alive Shaun."

Shaun hugged me as tears fell from my eyes. "Nikki, he wouldn't have been happy and niether would I have been happy. You were the light in his life, just like you're the light in mine and if either of us ever lost you we'd be so damn depressed we would try to drown in alcohol or better yet we wouldn't want to live either. It wasn't your fault, you have to believe me on that. It wasn't your fault." He explained.

I looked in his eyes as tears filled them. "You promise?"

He kissed my head. "Yes I promise you."

I ended up falling asleep in his arms. When I woke up, Dean and Sam were back and talking. "Hey guys." I said rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.

"Hey Nikki." Sam and Dean both said.

"You alright?" Sam asked.

I nodded. "Yeah I'm okay. How about you?"

Dean smiled. "We should be asking you that."

I nodded. "Well I'm good." The next day Shaun, Dean, and Sam were all packed up for the day. "Can't I come?" I asked.

Shaun looked at me shaking his head. "No you can't this is too dangerous for you. I want you to stay here and call uncle Bobby every hour on the hour."

I sighed. "Okay."

Shaun came over and kissed my head. "I love you Nikki, we'll be back monday." He gave me a quick hug and walked to the door.

"Okay I love you too." I smiled slightly.

They left and I was left in a motel room with nothing to do but watch television. I sighed loudly sitting on a bed and turned on the TV to spongebob, a couple minutes later I was dying of boredom. I decided to call Bobby because at least then I'd have something to do. Oh yeah Bobby is our dad's friend. Shaun and I met him a long time ago when we were on a hunt. His phone rang a couple times till I heard his voice. "Hello?"

"Hi uncle Bobby." I said half-heartedly.

He replied. "Well hello there. How are you?"

"I'm climbing the walls Bobby. There has to be something I can do, anything." I sighed.

Bobby chuckled. "Aww. I'm sorry Nichole to hear that theres not much you can do."

I groaned. "But Bobby."

He chuckled. "Sorry. Why don't you watch TV."

"Because one episode of spongebob is enough to make you go crazy." I replied.

"Nikki. You have to just find something to do." Bobby said.

A while later I was still in the motel bored out of my skull till I saw a young boy about my age. I wasn't supposed to leave the motel room but I thought what the hell I got to do something. I walked out of the room and over to the boy. "Hey." I smiled.

He looked at me. "Hi, what's your name?"

I smiled. "I'm Nikki."

He nodded. "That's a pretty name. I'm Joe."

"It's nice to meet you Joe." I said politely.

He smiled. "Pleasures all mine."

I blushed. "So what are you doing around here?"

He shrugged. "Parents, wanted to go on a road trip."

I giggled. "Wow, same like my family. My 3 older brothers left me for the weekend and I'm so bored."

He frowned. "They just left you?"

"Yeah they work around here. They have to make a living somewhere you know." I told him.

He smiled. "Oh I get it now."

"Yeah." I smiled.

He turned to me. "So-"

I've walked amongst the living dead
And I'm sick of the voices that are in my head
I've taken the ride and I've danced with death
I had nine lives and I've got one left

Cause I've got what you want
You've got what I need
Let's get together it'll take me forever
Yeah waaaaaaaaahhh!

"Sorry that's my cell." I told him. "Hold on one second."

He nodded. "Sure no problem."

I picked up. "Hello?"

Shaun replied. "Hey how you doing?"

"Fine. I have to go." I told him.

"Nick your alone in a motel room what's so important that you can't talk for a second?" He asked.

"Sorry. I'm bored and I finally found something to do." I replied.

"Like what?" He asked.

"I'm talking to someone." I smiled at Joe.

"Really? Who? Uncle Bobby?" He asked.

"No his names Joe." I replied.

"You left the room didn't you?" He asked.

"Yeah." I said.

"Nichole you weren't supposed to leave the room." He said sternly.

"Shaun if you were me you'd understand." I told him.

"Nichole I understand you broke a rule." He said.

"Shaun really? I'm bored out of mind in there. You would've left the room too." I said being stubborn.

"I guess your right. Be careful okay? You have a gun and knife right?" He asked.

I replied. "Yep, when don't I?"

He replied. "That a girl. I'll see you in two days. Love you."

"Love you too. Bye." I said closing my phone. "Sorry about that Joe."

He smiled. "It's no problem."

"So what were you saying?" I asked.

He smiled. "I want to know if you want to go to the diner over there with me tonight?"

I blushed. "Like as in a date?"

He nodded. "Yeah."

I blushed more. "Uh, yeah I'd love too."

"Great meet me there at 7." He told me.

I smiled brightly as he walked away and then I ran into the motel room and went to get ready. At 7 I was all dressed up and ready to go. I walked over to the diner and saw Joe sitting at a table with a rose in his hand. I blushed seeing him there he looked so handsome. I walked in and over to the table sitting down. "Hey."

He brightened up. "Hi."

I smiled again. "Hey."

"Hi." He replied. "Oh I got this for you." He said handing me the rose.

"Thank you. It's beautiful." I sighed in awe.

"Just like you." He told me.

I blushed again. "Thanks."

"Your so cute when you blush." He complimented.

I smiled more then ever in my life tonight. He had so many compliments, funny jokes, humorous stories, he was just the type of guy for me. After the diner we both went for a walk and just talked about our lives, I didn't tell him about my life of hunting though. Eventually as we were walking back to the motel room it started pouring. Joe and I collapsed into laughter. He looked in my eyes and then he kissed me, right there in the pouring rain. I saw fireworks as he kissed me, it felt like I was flying. I knew he was the right guy for me. When we got to my room I smiled at him. "Thanks for the wonderful night Joe. I had so much fun."

He smiled. "I'm glad you did. I hope I can't take you out again maybe tomorrow?" He asked.

"I'd love to." I answered.

He kissed my cheek. "Till then my darling you have sweet dreams."

When he left I went into the door and closed it, then I leaned back against the door and sighed in love. I Nichole Winchester was in love with a guy I just met that very afternoon. My cellphone had some texts on it mostly from Shaun wondering where I went. Gosh if he knew I went on a date he would flip his lid. I texted back telling him I fell asleep and then laid on my bed with my rose and really fell asleep.
