Pairing: Dean Winchester x Female!Reader

Summary: Your kids plan a weekend at the family cabin, hoping to catch the snow one last time before summer comes. What you don't know is that your ex-husband is coming along, an ex-husband that you're still in love with.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You ask her."

"No, you do."

"I'm the oldest and I say you go."

Your oldest daughter pushes your youngest son over to you who is sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee and a newspaper in hand. Your kids have been whisper arguing for the past ten minutes so now it's a matter of who will actually come over to you and ask you.

"Are you three just gonna stand there or are you going to ask me whatever it is that you want?" you ask without taking your eyes off the newspaper.

Your son walks over to you and taps the table nervously. You move your eyes from the newspaper to his, and he nervously chuckles.

"Listen, I love you so much."

"Spit it out, Jacob. What do you three want?"

"We want to go to the family cabin this weekend," your oldest daughter blurts out. "We've been working hard in school and think we deserve a break. This is probably the last weekend we'll get snow and we want to go to the cabin for it."

"I don't see why not," you shrug.

"Really?"

"Yeah," you laugh. "It'll be fun." You look at your kids and notice a nervous look between them. "What is it?"

"Dad's going."

Your entire body goes rigid at the mention of your ex-husband. You haven't seen or heard from the man in four years. Your daughter is old enough to keep in touch with her father on her own, and the other two are young enough to follow in her footsteps. When she goes to stay with him, they both follow her. She's been your scape goat for not wanting to talk to him.

"Okay. It's going to be fine. You three can go with him and I'll have the house to myself for a bit. It'll be fine."

"What? You're not coming with us?" your middle son asks.

"I don't think that's a good idea."

Your youngest son puts a hand on your thigh and looks at you with wide green eyes. God, he looks just like his father.

"But I want you coming, Mommy. Please don't break up our family."

Yep, just as manipulative as his father is, too. Okay, that was harsh. They're not manipulative as an evil way, they just know how to play you well enough to get what they want. You set your newspaper down with a sigh, a sigh that your kids know as you being compliant.

"Fine, I guess a weekend wouldn't hurt."

Immediately, all three of your kids jump on you to hug you. You can't be mad at them. They're children. They want to have fun and be kids. You can put aside your feelings for your ex-husband for a weekend. If he can do it, you can.

That night, you're packing your pag deep in thought. Does he know that you're coming? Was it his idea? Is he going to stay if you are? Can you two get along? The family cabin is a good place to stay in during the summer and spring months, but it's very isolated during the winter months. There are tons of storms up north that will keep you stuck inside the cabin for days at a time, but you think it'll be fine since winter is ending. There will be snow but not enough of it to keep you from leaving... You hope.
