A soft sigh heaved slender shoulders, a pout appearing on Jenna’s lips as she gazed at the man that was currently occupying her bed. The rage she’d felt earlier started to bubble up to the surface, but she suppressed it. Every second that she and Dean had now was precious, so why waste them being mad? Even though she was downright fucking furious at what he did. Jenna understood it, of course. Dean’s fierce loyalty to his family was one of the infinite reasons that Jenna loved him. And to be honest, she’d even thought of doing the same thing. But now that it was all said and done? The gravity of the situation was like a punch to the gut.
As soon as the words fell from Dean’s lips, Jenna felt as if she were going to vomit. He’d sold his soul to some crossroads demon—not for the standard deal, which was a decade. Nope. One year. Three hundred and sixty-five days until Dean was ripped away from her. Part of Jenna felt a little bit of animosity towards Sam. But she quickly dismissed that feeling. Sam was just as hurt and just as angry at Dean as she was.

“Couldn’t sleep either?” Sam spoke, sitting up when he noticed that Jenna wasn’t in bed—instead leaning against the open window and smoking a cigarette. She chuckled dryly, stubbing out the cigarette and putting it in the ash tray. The taller Winchester brother swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood up, walking over to his opposite. “Yeah, I get that. Hard to get any kind of sleep with all the snoring he does. Ever try rolling him on his stomach?” Sam joked, running a hand through his unruly hair.
Jenna laughed as well before sighing again. Sam could see it in how she carried herself. Just how…defeated that she looked. “Hey,” Sam spoke, putting a reassuring hand on her shoulder. “Listen to me, Jen. I don’t know exactly how, but I’m gonna make you a promise. We will figure this out. Whatever it takes. Dean is gonna be a pain in your ass for much, much longer than a year. I swear.” Sam gave her shoulder a soft squeeze before turning on his heel and heading toward the bathroom.
“Try to get some sleep, okay?” He whispered as he grabbed the door handle. “You look exhausted.”
