All You Did was Save my Life

Don't You Dare

Note: Cas is about three and a half months along here

"What d'you mean you've been seeing Lucifer?" Dean asked, crossing his arms as he stood in front of his younger brother.

"I dunno Dean," Sam shrugged, "I mean... it used to just happen when I would get a migraine. Then I started having nightmares... and now..."

"Now what?" Dean asked. Sam shifted uncomfortable and glanced over to the opposite corner of the waiting room.

"Hold up, are you seeing him right now?" Dean asked and Sam nodded minutely. "You know he's not real right?"

"He says the same thing about you," Sam said miserably.

Dean sighed, trying to think of what to say to his brother. He was also trying to think of a way to kill Gabriel for hiding this from him. However, before he could do either of those things, a doctor walked through the double doors.

"Family of Bobby Singer?"

"That's us," Ellen said as the group stepped forward.

"You're all family?" the doctor said skeptically.

"Yes," Jo said, "Is Bobby okay?"

"Mr. Singer is very lucky," the doctor said, "An inch to the right and he wouldn't be here right now."

"So he's going to be fine?" Dean asked.

"He's alive," the doctor replied, "He's still unconscious right now and until he wakes up we won't know for sure the kind of damage that was done."

"But he will wake up?" Dean pressed.

"We are hopeful yes," the doctor nodded and the six of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can we see him?" Ellen asked hopefully.

The doctor hesitated. "Alright, but only for a minute, he's up in the ICU right now." They followed the doctor as he showed them to Bobby's room.

They entered slowly, all of them staring in shock at the man in the bed. Bobby had machines attached to him all over the place and thick bandages wrapped around his head. The group walked over to stand next to the bed and Ellen slipped her hand into his.

"Can't you fix this?" she asked Cas and Gabe.

"I can't," Cas shook his head and rested his hand on his abdomen. Ellen nodded in understanding, remembering what it had been like for Cas last time. She really hoped this time would be different for him. She turned her attention on Gabriel.

"Not yet," he shook his head, "I will, or Balthazar will, but not yet."

"Why?" Jo asked.

"He just got shot," Gabriel said, "A miracle healing might look a little suspicious. And we're trying not to draw attention to ourselves right now. No, once he's started healing then myself or Balthazar will come down and speed things up a bit. A fast recovery looks less suspicious than a miracle."

Ellen nodded and looked down at the man in the bed.

"We'd better go," Jo said after a moment, "Before that doctor comes back and sees we're over our minute."

"We can find a motel to stay at," Dean nodded, "Balthazar can look after the kids for one night."

"I think I'm gonna stay here," Ellen said quietly.

"They might not let you stay in the room with him mom," Jo said.

"Then I'll stay in the waiting room if they tell me to leave," Ellen replied, "I want to be here when he wakes up."

They all nodded and walked out, leaving Ellen alone with Bobby.

"Now you listen here Bobby Singer," she said, leaning closer to him. "You better wake up, you hear me? You..." She turned her head away, blinking rapidly for a moment before looking back. "You are not allowed to die, got it? You rte not allowed to leave. You have me and Jo and Ash, Sam, Dean, Cas, and Gabe, even Balthazar. And the boys... They need you. I need. I love you. So don't you dare die. Don't you dare."

I'm back! Wow, I was gone for a lot longer than I originally meant to be. I meant to start posting again in April and then I ended up with all this other stuff I had to do. Then it was supposed to be up last week, but life has kind of been getting in the way a lot lately. I didn't update any of my fanfics last week and I missed my Walking Dead updates for two weeks now. I've had these chapters written, it was just finding the time to sit down and type them that was the issue.

I finally got a chance to do that and now I'm back! I don't have quite as much written as I hoping to, but I definitely have enough that I have time to get more out and I'm also enjoying writing it again!

So, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, I wanted to kind of explore Bobby and Ellen's relationship a bit more as I love those two.

Thank you for being so patient, and thank you for reading! Let me know what you think and I will have a new chapter up next week!
