The Usual Suspects

It was a couple of days later when Dean showed up to Sarah’s place. He seemed a bit nervous which if you know Dean, nervous doesn’t happen to him; at least he never shows it. He had prompted her to pack some things to help him and Sam. So there he was on her bed watching in amusement the girl going back and forth. Once in a while you’d also see Bobby go by her opened bedroom door just in case. Of course he just played it off as being forgetful at his age and needing something from upstairs. The smile on Sarah’s face every time he did it showed that she knew.

“Dean,” spoke Bobby just as the two stepped down the stairs, “I found out where Lilith is.”
“Where?” Dean blurted before Bobby had gotten the chance, Sarah grabbed Dean’s arm. He looked at her for a brief moment to see a look of worry flash across her features. Bobby noticed this and stepped closer to them.
“New Harmony, Indiana now get going and get rid of her.”

Dean walked ahead and out the door while Bobby had wanted to talk to his daughter.

“Sarah, don’t get involved with the Winchester’s they’re nothing but bad news,” he warned
“Dad I don’t plan on, I’m worried about him but I’m also worried about Sam too with that Ruby turning him away from us. Besides I’m old enough to make my own mistakes.” At this she placed a hand on her father’s face, “you know I’ll always have you dad no matter how old I am.”

This caused the sad, sombre look on her father’s face to soften as he pulled her into a hug, “just be careful out there, you’re the only blood I’ve got left and I can’t have you spilling it over foolishness.”
“I promise dad, I’ve gotta go time is ticking,” she than kissed his cheek before heading off to the impala and jumping in.

Sam had been finishing up something and was going to meet them there. The drive would take them two days, she sighed looking at the front door of her house before wiping a stray tear from her eye.

“We’ll make it out of this thing you wait,” Dean spoke gruffly before putting a hand on her shoulder, with that he started the impala and they were off. They drove through the night and day before stopping in a little town, the two decided they needed food, a place to sleep and a hot shower. As soon as Sarah walked through the motel door she plopped on the bed.

“This is so much more comfortable than the impala,” she exclaimed.
“I agree with you Sarah,” Dean replied plopping down beside her face buried into the pillow. This caused her to roll on her side and smile at him wildly.
“Dean, who said you were sleeping in the bed with me?” She asked coyly, this caused him to look up from the pillow eyebrow raised. He smirked back before crawling on top of her.
“Me.”
“Really? And what are you going to do about it Mr. Winchester?” She asked again.

Without another word his lips crashed onto hers, she couldn’t help but feel herself give in to the eldest Winchester. She could feel every part of her body scream out in ecstasy with his kiss, with that touch. Her hands gradually found his neck pulling him in deeper. She could feel his experienced hands on her bare skin causing shivers to run down her spine. When they finally broke apart to breath Sarah couldn’t help but stare into his eyes with longing. It only took Dean a minute to register what was going to happen next. In one swift movement they were both naked and giving in to what their bodies wanted.

Sarah awoke the next morning still naked and with Dean’s arms still around her, she couldn’t help but smile. She glanced at the ancient digital clock on the bedside table. It was 10:30 this caused the smile to disappear and be replaced by a frown there was almost thirty hours left until Dean’s contract was up. She slid out of bed grabbed a fresh batch of clothes and headed to the shower. When she stepped out and into the room Dean was now awake, he pushed passed her and into the bathroom.

She left out a heartfelt sigh when she heard the water running and decided to write a note to Dean telling him she went for food.
While waiting for her food she couldn’t help but notice a man who looked like he was in his mid-thirties staring at her out of the corner of her eye. Once she noticed she was uncomfortable the entire waiting period. She couldn’t help but notice him get up and follow her as she left the dingy diner.

“It better be something important you want from me or else you just followed the wrong girl mister,” she spoke coldly as she stopped when they were a little ways away.
“Well it’s a charm to finally meet the always witty Sarah Singer,” replied the man, whom she noticed was British by the sounds of it.
“How do you know my name?” She asked, all of her senses were in high gear at this point.
“A lot of people, or not so much people know your name love, I for example am king of the crossroads,” he replied smugly.
“Crowley? I’ve heard of you too, always one for sealing his deals with a kiss,” she told him.
“That’s me, now I have something to trade, only if you’re willing to deal.”
“Don’t you dare wave Dean’s soul in front of me, if you know who I am than you know I don’t deal with demons well,” she spat.
“That wasn’t my plan love, Dean made that deal with another demon, and he needs to pay for his actions. What I want to do is offer you my services anytime you may need them.”
“What’s my price, my soul isn’t up for grabs for anyone.”
“You’re soul is all to important just when the time comes maybe offer me a bit of protection of sorts, I may actually come in pretty handy one day.”
“I’ll think about it, right now I need to get back to Dean.”
“Remember you always know how to reach me.”

With that he disappeared and she walked the rest of the way back to the motel. Dean was happily waiting for his breakfast though Sarah knew he wasn’t all too happy. He didn’t want to die as much as she wanted him to die. As they reached New Harmony Sarah had told Dean that no matter what happened she would always care about him, and what had happened back at the motel hadn’t ruined their friendship. Dean was relieved he wanted nothing more than her not to feel cheap, if anything he was happy that their friendship had only gotten better.

When they arrived at the house that Sam was staking out they had found Bobby with him. Bobby’s excuse he “didn’t want to see his daughter get hurt.” Either way Sarah was pulled in for a hug, she in her heart, did not want to go thorough with this. She just wanted to wake up and this all be a bad dream. Of course the demon Ruby showed up at that moment and Sarah wanted to pounce on her but she felt Sam’s hand tighten around her wrist. Sarah was left outside for the most part as the action went down but adrenalin kicked in and she ran into the house.

It was a bad idea, the next thing she knew she was pinned down telekinetically beside Dean. Lilith smiled at the sight, at one point she burst out in laughter. Sarah’s heart than broke when she heard the hell hounds, she couldn’t help but scream in terror and pain as she watched Dean get torn up by the creatures. As soon as she felt the grip loosen she crawled to Dean and laid her head next to him. There were no words she cried, and cried. She then felt Sam’s presence on the other side of Dean, she watched as he cradled his brothers’ head into his lap. They were broken; the only family the four of them had been broken. Sarah knew she could get him back she knew it, she hoped it.
