Everything Has Changed

Twenty-Eight

Dean bought Claire her piece of pie but she felt bad so she got him a whole one. "So, how did you get here so fast?" Sam asked curiously. "The Dauntless tunnels. I took a chance and they were there. I got here just a few minutes before you two." Claire said and Dean looked at her in disbelief. "The what?" He asked and she smiled taking a bite of her pie. "In my world, we built tunnels to get anywhere we wanted in fast time. I took a chance and you have them here too." She explained finishing her pie. "So where's home?" She asked wiping her mouth with a napkin.

"We'll show ya and get you all settled in." Dean said as they all stood up and walked out. "So just follow us. It isn't far from here." Sam said and Claire nodded. "Let's go then." She said hopping on her bike. Sam, Dean, and Claire all left the parking lot and started for the bunker. Once they reached the bunker and pulled into the garage, Claire was already excited. They walked in and went straight to the library. "Sweet baby Jesus. This is your library?" She asked turning in circles taking it in. "Great another nerd." Dean said under his breath but Claire heard him. "Yeah. All the Men of Letters archives. Books on lure, that kid of thing." He said and she smiled.

"3,589." Is all she said and Sam gave her a confused look. "What?" He asked and she looked at him. "There are 3,589 books in this room. Insane." She said and Sam shook his head. "Wow, you are Erudite." He said chuckling. She looked him in the eye seriously. "I was Erudite." She said correcting him. There was a pain in her stomach and she looked down concerned. "What? What is it?" Sam asked but she just smiled and grabbed his hand. "Gabriel is awake." She said and placed his hand on her fast growing tummy. Dean watched as his brother looked so happy. He hasn't been that happy in well, ever. He walked out of the library and to his room leaving his brother with Claire.

"And you're sure about Gabriel?" Sam asked knowing a certain Gabriel that he didn't get along with. "Yes. Gabriel Ross Ackles. After his dad." She said smiling. Sam took his hand off her stomach and sat on the edge of the table studying her. "What?" She asked snapping Sam back to reality. "Nothing. S-Sorry." He said and looked down at his feet. "Tell m about yourself Claire." Sam said breaking the silence and Claire laughed. "There isn't much to tell." She said sitting down in a chair next to him. "Well then tell me." He said moving from the table to a chair. 

"Okay let's see. Uh, I was born in Canada moved to Austin when I was twenty-five, I don't work or play nicely with others. I've killed 157 people starting when I was 12. Oh, I'm an angel, pregnant with a Nephilim, and I like long walks on the beach." She said making Sam laugh. She was just like Dean in a lot of different ways. "Wow. Okay, any siblings?" Sam asked and she shook her head. "Nope next question." She said smiling. "What does you father do?" He asked and she shrugged. "He was the leader of Erudite before they killed him. Next question." She said shaking off the memory. 

"Mother?" He asked and she shook her head. "Just a normal human before she was also murdered." She said and Sam nodded is head. "I think that's enough questions for now." He said and this time Claire nodded. The room went silent before Sam spoke up again. "Can I ask you why you chose Gabriel?" He asked and Claire smiled. "Technically, you just did. I chose Gabriel cause Jensen wanted his first boy to be Gabriel." She said looking down. "Do you miss him?" Sam asked and she shook her head then wiped her eyes before looking  up at him. "Very much." She said with a sad smile. 

"He's better off without me." She said quietly making Sam look up. "How do you figure?" He asked cocking an eyebrow. "I just brought pain and danger. He doesn't deserve that." She said and Sam shook his head. "The man I saw, loved you very much and wanted to get back to you as soon as possible. I don't think he cared about that. Any of it." Sam said and Claire just nodded. "I'm gonna hit they hay. Is there a room I can take or a couch maybe?" She asked and Sam nodded. "Follow me." He said guiding her down the hallway. He got to an empty room and opened the door. There was a queen bed in the middle of the room and it had plain walls.

"This is it. If you need anything, Dean and I are just down the hall okay." He said and Claire nodded. Just as Sam started to walk away, Claire grabbed his hand making him stop and turn around. She pulled him into a hug wrapping her arms around his neck and he wrapped his arms around her waist. Claire leaned back a few inches and pressed her lips to his in a sweet kiss. Sam pulled away and smiled down at Claire. "What was that for?" He asked and she smiled back at him. "Helping me. Thank you Sam, I appreciate it." She said hugging him once again not wanting to leave his arms. 

"Of course Claire. Anything you need." He said into her hair pressing a kiss to the top of her head. "Sammy!" Dean's voice carried through the whole bunker. "I better go. Get some rest okay?" Sam said and she nodded. "Thank you Sam." She said pecking his lips before going into her room and closing the door. Sam walked to the kitchen where Dean was and sat down at the table. "What's up?" He asked Dean smiling. "We have- woah. What did you do?" He asked sitting down across from his brother. "What do you mean? I didn't do anything." Sam said and Dean shook his head. 

"You kissed her didn't you?" Dean asked moving his eyebrows up and down. "She kissed me... Twice" Sam said and Dean smiled. "That's my boy!" Dean said happily but Sam shook his head. "Dean, she misses Jensen. I'm showing her kindness and she is going through a lot. Which results in her kissing me. I would've loved for it to be real and mean something to her but she probably regrets it and will tell me not to talk about it tomorrow." Sam said and Dean shook his head then got up and walked away.

Claire was trying to get her clothes into the drawers of the one dresser when there was a knock on the door. "Yeah" She said having her back still to the door when someone walked in. "You kissed my brother." Dean said closing the door. "Correct." She said not turning to face him while still putting away her clothes. "Did you mean it?" He asked making Claire stiff. "Why wouldn't I have meant it?" She asked turning around. "I fucking knew it! He thinks that you didn't. Do you have feelings for my brother? Cause he likes you. He has ever since you appeared in our motel room." Dean said and she smiled. 

"Dean, your brother is amazing, hot as hell and super sweet. I just don't know how I feel right now. I know I would most certainly want to do it again." She said and Dean smiled. "You think you can tell him that by chance?" He asked locking eyes with her. She smiled and walked out of the room. "Kitchen!" Dean called and she walked to the kitchen. "Hey Claire, I'm sorry about-" Sam started but Claire stopped him crashing her lips to his.
