It's been two years since Bobby gave his permission for Dean to date his daughter. So much has happened since then. Angels, demons, monsters, hunts... But through it all one thing remain the same: their love. Dean would go on hunts with Sam, while Sophia stayed with him backing the phones. But after every hunt, the boys would return home and they were a family.

That was what was on Bobby's mind while trying to figure out an answer to give Dean. You see, Dean had just asked him for his permission to marry Sophia. He said all the right things and Bobby knew that he truly loved her, but still was afraid that he might hurt her, one way or another. Eventually, he came to a decision.

-''Dean, you know I love you like a son and nothing would make me happier than to see Sophia marry you.'' – he said with a sincere smile. He knew he couldn't keep those two apart, hell, he even had that same conversation with Sam and he told him something that stuck with him.

A few weeks before, he and Sam were in the yard talking about Dean and Sophia's relationship.

-''Bobby, I know you had your doubts about them, but let me tell you, being with Sophia changed Dean. He no longer goes in guns blazing, he's careful; his only thought is that he needs to stay safe so he can come home to her arms. He was never like that, you know as well as I do. Trust me when I tell you, they're meant to be together.'' – Sam said, with a gentle smile.

What Sam said that day, stayed with him and now there Dean was, asking for his permission to marry his daughter. He'd seen the change in Dean and he could see how happy she was with him, so how could he say no? He gave his permission knowing that his daughter was going to be the happiest girl around. She really loved him and couldn't live without him. He smiled, knowing that a new chapter in all of their lives was starting.
