Dean awoke the next morning to hear consist knocking at the front door when he reached for his phone it was only 7:45 in the morning, he groaned getting up to answer the door before the twins woke up. He opened the door and sighed he saw his mother there. He went out in the hall and closed the door behind him.
"Hi son". Jackie said.
"Your not suppose to be within a 1,000 feet of us, what are you doing here?" Dean replied.
"I wanted to say I'm sorry for everything I did, to you and to the twins. They're better off with you than with me and Jackson".
"Save your apologizes mom you're not sorry, you never are and you never will be sorry. And I know that they're better with me because I'm there for them".
"Well I thought you should know, Jackson and I are moving to Cincinnati we won't both you three anymore".
"Bye have a nice life".
"Dean I'd like to see the twins before I leave. Just to say good bye".
"Not gonna happen, you can't be here anyway so leave. Look I'm giving you once chance to leave your lucky I haven't called the cops yet for violating the restraining order so leave I don't want the twins seeing you. Besides leaving has always been your specialty".
Jackie then walked away just as Dean went back inside he shut the door and threw his head back on it, he was lucky the twins didn't wake up. He went back to his room and grabbed some clothes then headed for the shower. Once Dean was finished in the shower the twins were wide awake fighting for the remote.
"It's my day TJ you had it last time". Sophie said.
"That doesn't count". TJ said.
"Yes it does".
"Does not".
"Does too".
"Does not".
Dean couldn't stand the bickering anymore so he went over and took the remote from TJ and spoke. "Now it's my remote, you guys need to get ready we have to head out soon".
"Where are we going?" TJ asked.
"Soph has therapy today".
"Do I have to go dad?" Sophie asked.
"TJ go get ready while I talk to Soph".
The young boy went to the room closing the door behind him, Dean sat next to his little girl. "Sweetheart it might help this time".
"I don't want it to be like last time, I'm afraid it might not work".
"We won't know until you go and you talk".
"I'll give it a try".
"That's my girl". He then kissed her temple. "Go get ready".
Sophie then ran off to her room and shut the door as she began to get ready. Once the twins were dressed Dean had gotten his wallet and keys.
"TJ make sure you have something to keep yourself occupied I don't want you getting into trouble". Dean said.
"Me? Trouble? Dad I never get into trouble". TJ said.
"Yeah that's a joke let's go before we're late".
The trio left heading to Sophie's therapist appointment, the twins kept talking about which movies to watch that night Dean looked in the rear view mirror to see them talking and laughing it was music to his ear. When the twins were happy he was happy. After a little more driving they arrived to the office buildings, once the car was parked they exited and headed inside. Sophie had butterflies in her stomach she was nervous about going back to therapy but she wanted to be her old self again and this would be the first step.
They headed to the second floor where the children's therapists were they were on the elevator and the twins began talking in their made up language.
"Dit'rr fo axarlidd Seph". TJ said. (It'll be alright Soph)
"Pum gned quich jolveus zaxat nud axarr". Sophie replied. (I know just nervous that's all)
"Juch taxako pit pour floaxath pi croaxal yeep whoaxad, daxad pi Pum axalo lidd wholo". (Just take a deep breath and clear your head, dad and I are right here)
Dean heard them talking in their made up language and chuckle shaking his head. "Guys were here so English". He said.
They enter the office and Dean signed in while the twins sat down Dean then went and sat beside TJ.
"I'm bored". TJ said.
"We just got here TJ". Dean responded.
"But I'm a kid dad we always get bored".
"Just don't cause trouble and you'll be fine".
After a few more minutes Sophie has calmed down but was still a bit nervous just then a tall brown haired woman, wearing a blue knee length dress and black pumps emerged from her office.
"Sophie Ambrose?" She says.
Dean and Sophie got up going to the woman.
"Hi you must be Dean, I'm Dr. Rebecca Jones".
"Yes I'm Dean and this is Sophie". Dean says introducing him and Sophie.
"Hi Sophie".
"Hi". Sophie said shyly.
"Shall we go to my office Sophie?"
The young girl looked up at Dean. "Go on sweetheart I'll be here when your finished". He said.
Sophie then went to the office with Rebecca she shut the door behind her, Dean went to go sit with TJ.
"Dad why'd she close the door?" TJ asked.
"Sessions are private TJ nobody is suppose to know what's said except the doctor and patient". Dean explained.
"Would Soph open up to us if this works?"
"I don't know bud".
Sophie sat in the chair across the Rebecca just as the older woman got her note book and pen ready.
"Alright Sophie why don't you start by telling me something about yourself". Rebecca said.
"Like what". Sophie replied.
"Do you have any brothers or sisters, what do you like to do in your spare time".
"I have two brothers, TJ's my twin brother he's older by only 5 minutes. Dean's our older brother but he's also like our dad since he raised us, but he adopted us so he lets us call him dad".
"I think that's very nice. What about yours and TJ's parents?"
Sophie then stopped for a moment and took a deep breath. "They went to jail, over the weekend Dean took us shopping then when he wasn't looking they took us from him".
"That must have been really scary for you and TJ".
"It was when we were in the car I had a panic attack, TJ helped me through that".
"Do you have panic attacks a lot?"
"Sometimes but not all the time".
"What happened after the attack".
"They took us to a rest stop and while I was cleaning myself up TJ had called Dean, they then took us to a motel they wanted to take us home".
"Where was home?"
"Back to Cincinnati, that's where we're from".
"What happened after that".
"They left us again and we went to the motel manager and he helped us, we went back to Dean".
"Do you talk about what happened to either Dean or TJ?"
"Not really".
"Why's that".
"If I don't talk about it, it's like it never happened".
"I think if you do talk about it, it could help you. Once you open up it'll be a weight lifted off your shoulders".
"Really?"
"Yes".
"Will it help with my nightmares?"
"It will help with that too. When you're ready to talk about you can always go to your brother or Dean".
"I think I'll do that".
"Good. I think that will be all for this session Sophie you did great".
The two went out of the office to see Dean and TJ on their phones, Dean heard the office door open and seen Sophie exit with Rebecca.
"Hey everything go ok". Dean said.
"Sophie could I have a minute with Dean". Rebecca says.
"Ok I'll go sit with TJ". Sophie said.
Once the young girl went to beside her brother the two adults began quietly talking.
"How'd it go?" Dean asked.
"Sophie did really well, she said she has a hard time opening up about what happened. Be there when she's ready to open up about what happened". Rebecca replied.
"I will".
"See you next week".
"See you then".
The two shook hands Dean went back to the twins while Rebecca had another appointment. Dean took the twins to get some lunch he wanted Sophie to open up to him about the situation but he didn't want to push her without her shutting down.
They arrived at a small cafe they looked at the menus to decide what they want.
"Hey dad can we get coffee". TJ said.
"Not happening bud your hyper enough". Dean said.
They placed their orders, Dean got a grilled chicken sandwich with fries and a coke, TJ got a burger and fries with a sprite, and Sophie got a chicken salad with a burger and a coke. "Daddy". Sophie said.
"Yeah sweetheart". Dean replied.
"I'm ready to talk about what happened".
"Alo ug sulo? Ug peniz whaxavo te" TJ spoke. (Are you sure? You don't have to)
"Pum'v sulo dit nud timo te saxaupp haxat whaxapponow" (I'm sure it's time to say what happened)
"Take your time Soph". Dean put a hand over her's.
"When we were in the car with them I was scared because they wanted to take us back to Cincinnati, where it all started. I had an attack and got sick and Jackson got really mad I thought he would hit us or something".
Dean growled lowly as he felt his blood boiling he cleared his throat but the conversation stopped for a moment as the waiter brought them their food, when the waiter left Sophie had taken a couple of bites from her salad.
"Why do you always eat rabbit food?" TJ asked, eating a french fry.
"I don't always eat rabbit food". Sophie replied.
"Yes you do".
"Do not".
"Do too".
"Do not".
"Hey that's enough both of you". Dean said.
"Sorry dad".
"Can we finish the conversation later?" Sophie asked.
"Sure sweetheart".
After the trio ate their lunch Dean decided to spend the day with the twins, first they decided to do a round of mini golf.
"You guys are going down". Sophie said.
"If you say so little sis". TJ said.
Dean chuckled as they went to the Indoor Mini Golf Center, after a couple of rounds Sophie had won.
"Alright Soph good game". TJ said.
"Thanks". She says.
They then went to High Roller Ride and when they got to the top they saw a breathtaking view of the sun setting.
"That's so pretty". Sophie said.
"Amazing". TJ said.
The twins took out their phones and took pictures. It was now nearing 8 in the evening Dean decided to grab pizza for dinner, once they were back at the small apartment Sophie decided to finish the earlier conversation with Dean.
"Dad can we finish what we were talking about earlier". Sophie says.
"Of course baby". Dean said.
"After I had gotten sick in the car I thought Jackson was gonna do something but he didn't, TJ helped me clean up then we went to a motel Jackie and Jackson dropped us off then left again so that's when TJ and I went to the motel manager for help".
"I'm proud of you guys".
"Proud of us? Why?" TJ asked.
"You guys were so brave in that situations, it may have been frightening but you still managed to keep calm and look out for each other". Dean then turned to look at TJ. "I'm especially proud of you TJ for looking out and helping Soph when she needed you".
The twins then flung their arms around Dean's neck. "I love you guys so much". He wrapped his arms around his kids holding them tightly.
"We love you too".
After the family moment was over the twins turned the couch into a fort and began watching movies. It was now going on midnight in the Ambrose apartment the twins had fallen asleep in their fort Dean had checked on them before he had went to bed, he covered them back up when he saw the blankets on the floor. Sophie had stirred a little waking up.
"Daddy?"
"Shh sweetheart go back to sleep".
"G'night daddy i love you".
"I love you too sweetheart".
Dean had kissed her head before going back to his room for the night.
