That's The Hunter's Life

Chapter 8

Sam walked over to food stand to order them food so Nova went and leaned against the car next to Dean.

"So... about what happened last night, between me and you."

"We can't tell Sam." Dean looks at her then back at his phone.

"I agree because it would devastate him." Nova sighed.

"Exactly." Dean nodded.

"I love him, I do but honestly I liked the kiss." She blushed.

"Is that so?" He smirked at her.

She nodded at looked at him, "We can't be doing that again though."

"No we can't." He turns towards her, "And I meant to kiss your cheek Nova but I didn't realize you were looking at me. I should feel bad about kissing you, hell we both should because it wasn't just me doing the kissing, you kissed me back."

"You're right there." She nodded as Sam walked back over.

"So I uh found us a case." Dean told Sam.

"Seriously? I was only gone for like ten minutes."

"Okay and that matters why?"

"I don't know Dean. Maybe because you haven't said a word since Prentiss Island. And now what? You want me to shut up and ride shotgun and act like nothing happened?"

When he said that Nova gulped not knowing if he was meaning the thing with Benny or if he actually did see them kiss.

"Is this about Benny? You wanting to talk about Benny?" Dean asked. "Fine let's talk."

"How about, he's a vampire?"

"He's what?!" Novas eyes went wide as she looked from Sam and Dean.

Sam nodded at her, "Could tell last night when he shook my hand."

"He's also the reason I'm topside and not roasting on a spit in purgatory. Anything else?"

"Don't pretend like I don't get it. I know you had to do what you had to do down there."

"Sam don't act like you know anything about being there. Hell I don't even know neither." Nova sighed

"But he's out now, that's what matters and Benny's still breathing. Why?"

"And by what I gather, Dean owes Benny that for saving his ass down there."

Dean looks at Nova nods then looks back at Sam "He's my friend, Sam."

"And what about my friend, Amy? She was what? Cause you sure as hell didn't have a problem ganking her."

"People change Sam." Nova walks over to him "Maybe since being down there and having his ass saved by a vampire changes his perspective on things."

"Exactly, Plus we let that werewolf Kate go."

"She was different. She was- wait you think Benny's different? Did he tell you he's not drinking live blood or something?" Dean didn't say anything so Sam scoffed, "And you believe him. Okay. You know what you're right. People do change."

"Yeah, I got a vampire buddy and you turned your phone off for a year."

"Don't turn this on me."

"Look if Benny slips up and some other hunter turns his lights out, so be it."

"But it's not gonna be you right?"

"Sam!" Nova scoffed. "You have no room to talk. You couldn't do it on Amy so what's the problem with Dean not wanting to do it to Benny? The man saved Dean, I'm sure Multiple times down in that hell hole."

"And what about Amy saving me?"

"By what you've said, it was one time Sam. Benny helped Dean get through that place so I don't see why you have a problem with it. Why because it wasn't you saving your brother? Because it's the fact of a vampire saving him? We should be grateful that Benny helped him instead of turning him into food."

"Why are you taking his side? My girlfriend should be on my side."

Nova crossed her arms, "I don't have to be on anybody's side honestly, I'm my own person and a grown ass woman but excuse me for wanting to give people the benefit of the doubt." She rolled her eyes, "I'm done talking about this here."

She then got in but instead of the backseat she got into the front passenger seat.

Sam just looks at her, grumbled and looked at Dean "What's with that? Her getting in the front."

Dean just shrugged "You coming or not?" He then got into the driver seat.

Sam just pursed his lips together then got in the backseat. He then leaned up to Nova.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"Riding shotgun for once." She shrugged with a smirk.

"But you realize that's my seat."

"Okay and?" She poked his nose, "It's not going to kill you riding in the back once in a while Sammy."

On the case Dean had found he let them know how the wife came home while he's working underneath his ride, puts the pedal to the metal and takes half the guys head off.

"What, that's it?"

"Sounds like the guy did or said something to piss off his ole lady enough that she finally had enough of his bullshit if you ask me." Nova shrugs with a small smirk.

"She says she blacked out, doesn't remember a damn thing."

"Well that sounds like insanity."

"I mean it's possible to get so mad and black out." Nova shrugs.

"Maybe."

"So, how does that make this our kind of thing?"

Dean sighed, "Because, Kevin's in the wind okay? You're sulking around like a Eunuch in a whore house and I can't help but ask myself when is decapitation not my thing?"

"What the fuck is a Eunuch and why is it sulking in a whore house?" Nova giggled.

"Don't ask." Dean rolled his eyes with a sarcastic smile then got out of the car with Sam following him.

Nova chose not to join them because since it's usually just 2 FBI agents checking out crime scenes. She decided to look up what a Eunuch was and cringed at what she found.

"Oh ow! Poor guy." She put her hand on her crotch.

Because she found out a Eunuch was a man who has been castrated.
