Daughter of the Moose (sequel to 'Married to a Moose')

Chapter 9

The boys got home after a couple hours. They both had a lot of scratches and cuts on them.

"Oh my gosh! Are you guys ok?" I asked

"Yeah, we're ok. Don't worry." Dean said

"Do either of you need stitches? I know how. They made us learn first aid in health."

"I probably do." Dean said, as he rolled up his sleeve and showed me his cut.

"Yes, definitely." I went with Dean to my room and grabbed the first aid kit from the bathroom.

"How'd the hunt go?" I asked while I was putting in the stitches.

"It went fine, just got a little cut up, that's all." He was trying to downplay everything. Something was really getting at him.

"Dean, I can tell that whatever you were going to tell me last night is eating you up. You've seemed different ever since you said you wanted to talk."

"Don't worry about it Alex."

"Look, I'm starting to comprehend what's going on, and I think I'm ready to listen to you. I know it's only been a day, but I had a long time to think about stuff today and I'm doing ok."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, totally. I'm here for you. You're family, and family helps family."

"I'll tell Sam I want to stay with you one more night to make sure you're ok. We can talk tonight." Dean said, already perking up a bit.

"Ok." I replied, both happy that he trusts me and nervous because I had no idea what he wanted to talk about.
