Hannah
My eyes fluttered open and slowly looked around the motel room.

The gap between the ‘closed’ curtains was letting in some of the sunlight from outside, making every dust particle in the room visible to me. The funky smell from last night seemed to be gone, but I’d probably just adjusted to it. I wasn’t under the covers, which was strange, I normally can’t sleep unless I’m tucked up in bed.

Slowly, I remembered what happened last night and realised that I was curled into someone, probably Erin since I had a tendency to wander to wherever she was sleeping and snuggle up beside her and fall back asleep. I’d done it for years, since I moved out here, actually.

I learned a lot last night from what I remember, Castiel happily sat in my room with me and told me stories from over his many, many years as an angel, he told me a lot about his brothers and his sisters, but we made a deal last night that whenever we came across one another, he would tell me more of his story.

I let my eyes slip shut again and snuggled in a little closer, suddenly a little chilly from being on top of the covers.

“Good morning,”

My eyes snapped open at the sound of the voice and the rumbling chest underneath me. I squeezed my eyes shut, not daring to look, but I used my hand and felt around on top of the body that I was curled against, and instead of feeling Erin’s soft curves and smooth skin, I felt hard muscle under smooth fabric.

“Cas?” I asked, my voice barely a whisper.

“Yes?”

“Have you been here all night?” I asked.

I slowly opened my eyes again and propped myself up on my elbow and removed my arm from over the top of him.

He looked just as he had last night only now his hair was a little more tousled than I’d ever seen it and his tie was loosened, but he still wore his shoes and his trench coat. I had to admit that was adorable.

“I had planned on leaving once you were asleep,” He started “but then you looked so peaceful and I feared that I might wake you if I moved from underneath you, so I decided to wait a little longer but then you started to have nightmares so I switched them to sweet dreams,”

“You can do that?” I asked, a gentle smile tugging at my lips.

“There are a lot of things I can do,” He smiled back “over time you will find out just what they are,”

I stared into his amazingly blue eyes and he stared back into mine. I don’t know how long we stayed like that, but the door to my room swung open and we jumped apart, but I jumped too far away from him and tumbled off of the side of the bed and onto the floor, just like I had done last night.

I looked at the door and saw Erin and Dean standing there, and then I looked at Cas and realised that he had an insanely guilty look on his face and I guessed that I must have had the same expression.

“What… were they fucking?” Dean asked, a smirk spreading across his face, earning him a slap to the chest from Erin.

“No!” I said a little louder than I meant to, my defensive side kicking in “We talked last night and I passed out on his chest, okay? Go away!” With that, I rushed into the bathroom and locked the door.

That couldn’t have been more embarrassing. Of course it looked like we had been… ‘fucking’ as Dean so crudely put it, and I made
it even more suspicious when I threw myself onto the floor just to get my body away from Cas’.

“We’ll be outside!” Erin called to me “Get ready to leave!”

Once I heard the motel door close, I came out of the bathroom and got myself ready for the day.

I could already feel that it was going to be a particularly hot day today, so I decided to dress light. I slipped into clean underwear and a matching bra before pulling an ‘Army Green’ shrunken boyfriend tank top over my head and slipping into a pair of low waist denim
shorts and stepped into my black Converse. I decided to skip out on makeup today and pull my hair back into a messy ponytail on the back of my head to keep my hair off of my neck and let the ends of my hair hang down at the middle of my back, causing a slight breeze as my hair swung from side to side with every step I took

“Where’s my car?” Erin asked loudly from outside and I hurried out of the room to see her walking over to her room, she was only inside for a moment and came back out with her phone against her ear.

“Where THE FUCK is my car?!” She asked, starting to completely freak out. I’d sat myself up on the little porch fence and couldn’t help but laugh at her.

“Alright, alight,” Dean chuckled “Calm down, Little Mermaid, all is not lost, your friend Izzy needed some air after everything and drove off to meet up with that guy Jimmy,” Erin took a deep breath to regain her composure, but I could see it on her face that something was bothering her.

“I just wish that she would have texted me or something letting me know that she’s alright,” I slipped of the fence and walked over to her, leading her into my room and Dean and Cas followed suit so we were all in my room.
Cas started to pace and Dean started drinking.

“The angels,” Cas frowned, continuing to pace “have been talking a lot this morning… there is something happening around here, and I’m pretty sure that whatever it is may be too big for just the two of us, Dean.”

“We can help, y’know,” Erin cut in before Dean could say anything.

“Yeah,” I added “I think that we could be good to have around,”

Dean looked at Cas, then Cas looked at me and Dean looked at Erin.

“No,” Was the only word to leave his mouth.

Erin slammed her fists down on the chair she was sitting on, stood up and walked out of the room and Dean quickly followed her.

“Why is Erin upset?” Cas asked “Dean is just concerned for her safety, he knows that if the two of you get into the hunting lifestyle, you won’t be able to get out,”

“Maybe that’s what we want to do with our lives,” I shrugged “We packed up our lives and hit the road in search of an adventure, aren’t all things supposed to happen for a reason?” I asked “You’re an angel, you should know that,” I giggled a little “There’s a sentence I never thought I’d say,”

There was some yelling from outside and then a moment later Dean came back into the room, breathing hard with a red tint to his cheeks.

“Get your shit,” He ordered me before turning to Cas “We’re taking them to wherever their friend Izzy is and then we’re carrying on,” With that, he left the room and slammed the door behind him, making me jump a little.

“Well,” I breathed “That escalated quickly,”

“We better hurry,” Cas said “We don’t want to keep Dean waiting around when he’s in a foul mood, it’ll only make it worse,”

“Alright, I just have to pack away some of my things,” I told him “I’ll get you outside?”

“I’ll be waiting,” He smiled slightly before vanishing before my eyes.

“That’s not weird at all,” I muttered, starting to pack my bag.

“What was all of that about?” I asked, appearing in Dean’s room, making him jump slightly.

“What was all what about?” He asked.

“Don’t play dumb with me, Dean.” I ordered “You were yelling outside and then you were very rude to Hannah, why?”

“Erin,” He grunted.

“What about her?”

“She wants to help us,” He spoke “But she doesn’t know the extent of what we’re doing, she doesn’t get how dangerous this life is,
and I will not have another innocent woman die because of me,”

“Who is to say that she would die?” I asked “Who is to say that any of them would die?”

“It comes with the job,” He snapped “Once you’re a hunter there is no getting out, you don’t get married and have kids, you don’t live in a nice house with a white picket fence and a dog, and you most certainly don’t grow old!”

“Dean-“

“You die bloody, you die suddenly and you die on the job, you of all people should know how horrible it is to be a hunter,”

“Hannah said that they decided to live on the road so that they could find adventure,” I told him “She also pointed out to me that maybe hunting is what they are supposed to do, because everything happens for a reason and you and I both know that they didn’t just wander into that warehouse because Izzy overheard people talking, despite what they might think,”

“I know everything happens for a reason, trust me, I know who’s out there and what they do, but goddamn it, if I can prolong their lives, even just for a few more years, by staying as far away as possible, I’m doing it,”

“You are one stubborn man, Dean.” I sighed “You think you’re no good and you think you don’t save people but do you remember what you did?” I asked “Do you remember stopping the apocalypse?”

I leaned against the passenger side door of the car while Dean loaded his things into the trunk and Hannah and Erin came out of their rooms with their bags in their hands. Erin was quickly typing something on her phone with a concentrated look on her face and
Hannah was scrolling down hers with the complete opposite expression from Erin.

“Here,” Dean spoke, getting their attention as their heads snapped up from their phones “Give me those and get in the car,”

“Where are we going?” Hannah asked as she handed Dean her bag and glanced at me, a slightly blush creeping up her neck and onto her cheeks.

“Well, I don’t know about you girls but I’m absolutely starving so I want to go and get some breakfast,” Dean answered.

Hannah and Erin glanced at one another before turning back to Dean.

“We could eat breakfast,” Erin shrugged, hanging over her bag.

“Did you two just have a telepathic conversation?” He asked with a chuckle.

“Sort of,” Hannah shrugged “But not exactly,”

Dean got into the driver’s seat and I got in beside him while Erin and Hannah slid into the back so that Hannah was being me and
Erin was behind Dean.

After only five minutes of driving, which felt like forever to me, Dean pulled up outside a diner.

“They better have pie,” He muttered as we all piled out of the car.

“Pie?” Erin asked with an amused smirk on her face.

“I need road pie,” Dean told her, walking into the diner “Makes any day a good day,”

The three of them were eating, but I wasn’t. Being an angel means I don’t have to eat, I could eat, but I can taste every single thing in the food and it makes it taste horrible, humans should count themselves lucky.

“Aren’t you going to have anything, Cas?” Hannah asked, tearing off another piece of her pancake, dipping it in syrup and bringing it to her mouth.

“I don’t eat,” I told her matter of factly “I can taste every ingredient in the food,”

“What does that taste like?” She asked.

I thought about my answer for a moment.

“Molecules,” I answered, making her laugh which made me smile.

“We better get on the road soon,” Dean spoke, clearing his throat a little and taking a drink of his coke “Gotta make sure you girls have enough daylight left to get at least a couple of towns over once we reunite you with Izzy,”

“I’ll meet you in the town,” I told the three of them before vanishing out of the booth and out of Lincoln to where Izzy had apparently come last night to see Jimmy.

I decided to search the whole town before Hannah, Erin and Dean arrive, it would save time and allow us time to plan our next step if we needed one.

I checked the park, the mall, the movies, the lake… everywhere, but Jimmy and Izzy where nowhere to be found.

To waste some time I decided to take a walk and just be alone with my thoughts for a while. I thought about everything from Sam going to Hell and Dean doing everything he could think of to try and bring him back. I thought back to the night I met Hannah and how terrified she had looked when I found her running from one of the werewolves and all of the amazing things that have happened in the few days that I’ve known her.

I was walking by a parking lot that was overlooking some small cliffs and realised that it was void of any life, of any vehicles… except for one. I spotted Erin’s car down the other end of the lot. I zapped myself over to the car and looked inside, Izzy and Jimmy weren’t in the car but the packet of cigarettes on the dashboard suggested that Jimmy had been in the car and, obviously, Izzy was
the only one who could have driven it here. I walked around the car and kneeled down to look underneath when something glinting in the sunlight caught my eye.

Keys.

The car keys were on the ground, seemingly dropped or thrown.

I picked them up and called Dean who told me exactly where they were so that I could zap myself back to them.

“What did you find?” Dean asked, and I held up the keys for him to see and Erin gasped.

“Are those my keys?” She asked “Is the car still there? Did you find them?!”

“The car is there and the keys were under the car but there was no sign of Izzy or Jimmy,” I told her.

Dean drove a little faster after Cas came back, and Erin and I were losing our minds in the back of the car. I felt sick with worry thinking about all of the possible things that might have happened.

“Fuck,” I breathed, seeing the car abandoned in the parking lot.

Erin and I almost tumbled out of Dean’s car, we were in such a hurry to inspect the car and see if we could find anything. We were
circling the car and when I reached the trunk Erin reached the bonnet and she stopped.

“What is that?” She asked, pointing to the hood of the car, looking at Dean and Cas.

“What the fuck is that?!” She almost screamed.

“It’s Enochian,” Cas informed us “It’s a message,”

“From who?” I asked.

“Whoever took Izzy and Jimmy,” He answered.

“Who?” Erin asked.

Cas and Dean just looked at one another, and didn’t say a word.
