That's The Hunter's Life

Chapter 28

Nova was starting to feel better after her surgery. She was finally able to get up and move without any pain. She went into the library where she seen Sam.

"Hey baby."

"Hey you. How are you feeling? Why are you up and about? You should be relaxing."

"Sam, it's been a couple weeks since my surgery I'm fine. I can move with no pain I promise. The doctors told me to take it easy they didn't tell me to stay in bed until my incision is fully healed."

"I know but I still worry about you."

"I understand I do because I was constantly worrying about you after these trials but I promise I'm not going to overdo it. And look." She showed him her incision, "The stitches are finally starting to dissolve, meaning the incision is starting to heal."

"Ok ok I get it I'm sorry." He loosely wraps his arms around her.

She puts her hands on his chest "Don't be sorry." She kisses him.

"So, we've got a case in New York, you up for coming along?"

"Of course I want to." She grins.

As they were heading to New York they let her know about the case and how they came across it.

"Why does it not surprise me that you were a bad kid?" Nova chuckled.

"Hey I only got caught this one time. And I'm sure you're not miss innocent yourself."

"But I never got caught." She stuck her tongue playfully at him.

"Don't stick it out unless you plan on using it." Dean joked.

"Okay." She smirked with a shrug then quickly sat up and licked Sam's cheek.

"Seriously?" Sam laughed as he wiped his cheek off.

"And that was a bad idea." She groaned quietly while putting her hand on her lower left side of her stomach.

They both look at her with worry on their faces.

"Babe, you okay?"

"Do I need to pull over?"

"I'm fine and no, no keep driving." She motioned with her hand forward.

She looked at her incision, it was pink but no blood.

"I knew this was a bad idea." Sam shook his head.

"I said I'm fine damn it. It's just the sudden movement shot a pain through my stomach." She took a deep breath and let it out, "I'm fine now." She gave Sam a reassuring smile.

"You sure?" Dean questioned as he glanced back at her through the rearview mirror.

She nodded, "I'm sure I promise."

She took a pain pill then laid down, moving slowly this time as to not hurt herself again.

She then put her hand up towards Sam, "And before you say anything I'm not over exerting myself by coming. It'll do me some good to be able to get fresh air. I'd rather be with you guys out here than stuck in that bunker where I've pretty much been since I've been out of the hospital."

Dean smirked shaking his head while glancing at Sam as he just sighed.

"So, this is where you were and you said your dad couldn't find you?" Nova questioned as they got out of the car.

"Oh no, he found me. He found me quick. But he left me here because I lost our money."

"But you were 16, you made a mistake." Sam pointed out.
