(I swore I replied to this

When the wind began to pick up, Sophia let out a sigh and pulled her shirt a bit closer to her body to try and warm up as much as she could. She was tired and ready for sleep because this had been her first time really doing anything on her own. She had been hopeful she would do well and she seemingly had, they had gathered enough information to know what sort of creature they were up against. All because she had done her job well. As the thought sank in, Sophie felt a sort of pride beginning to well inside of her. A little smile settled onto her features as she heard Sam speak. Looking up, it dropped a bit as her eyebrows pulled together. "No. I signed up for this, I don't get to sit out just because things might be a little dangerous or whatever."
Once they were finally at the motel, Sophia wasted no time in kneeling down by the door to undo her shoelaces. She kicked off her shoes and padded over to the bed that she dropped down onto. She let out a quiet sigh, falling backward as her eyes slipped shut. It was such a welcome relief to be able to relax for a night, knowing that she didn't really have to worry about much for the rest of the night. Other than whether Dean was still okay or not because she could only imagine what was happening over the past little bit.
Sitting back up, Sophia let out a sigh as she looked toward Sam. "Besides, last I knew, wendigos are dangerous and I don't want you guys going out on your own. Even if you're both strong as all hell. And be honest, you'd be the same damn way if roles were reversed."
"Because," Dean tried to come up with a better sort of reason but he just sat there watching as Evelyn spoke. He wanted nothing more than to reach forward and hold her hand, he wanted nothing more than to slide to the other side of the booth so he could wrap his arms around her and try to reason with her. Try to explain why but this wasn't where he was going to be able to do that. There were too many witnesses, too many people listening and potentially overhearing things that they didn't need to know. "Because I had never met someone like you in my life before. Not someone I've ever been able to find a replacement before since." Dean didn't stop long enough to consider what he had just admitted to without the proper words.
Dean straightened a bit, shovelling a few bites of pie into his mouth in hopes that he could figure out some sort of answer to offer her but it didn't seem right to lie to her. Not her of all people. "I can't... not here.." he trailed off, letting out a sigh as he reached up to run a hand through his hair. "If you come back to the motel we're staying at, I'll tell you more. But not here. There's too many people listening and it could... could put them in danger that I'm trying to save them from." Dean offered a small smile as he dropped his gaze down, pushing his pie around for a moment. "Please. I want to tell you but I can't here."
