Largest Ball of Twine: Cawker City, Kansas. You were working there after having graduated university and entering the world as a 'new adult'... without a job. Of course they wouldn't have any jobs for a mythology major, you weren't sure what you expected anyway, but you didn't mind the job. Tourists came and went, they were traveling for you. It was secondhand adventure; you could hear their stories without having to worry about spending the money.

You met the Winchesters when you were brutally informed that everything you'd been studying was real. Dean told you to be happy they were saving you from being run over by the world's largest ball of twine, anyway, and you didn't mind going along with them. You had nothing holding you back, anyway.

The Beer-Can House: Houston, Texas. Three months after having met the Winchesters. A drunken Dean—he thought it was only fitting, after all, to be drunk while visiting a house made up of beer cans—admitted that even though you were a pain in his ass for the first few weeks, you grew on him. You could smell the beer on his breath even when he pressed his side to yours, looped his arm around your back and let his hand rest on your hip. He kissed your forehead and you thought for sure that if you opened your mouth, butterflies would fly out. That night was the first night you slept in the same bed as him and you were so much warmer than you'd ever been before. It was so warm, it almost made you forget that you were alone in the world, now, that he and his brother were your new family members. He smelled like soap and beer and motor oil but he smelled like kindness.

Benewah Milk Bottles: Spokane, Washington. Four months with the Winchesters. You convinced Dean to climb to the top of the building with you and take pictures when you were up there. He snapped a good shot of you after he told you to imagine what your obit would say ("Milk further showed its hatred toward a lactose intolerant moron, who climbed up to the top of a giant jug and fell to death") and ended up getting it printed because he said that's the most beautiful picture he has of you. It's currently in his wallet, and even though he says he only keeps it there so he won't lose it during all of the moves, you know he looks at it a lot. Sam makes fun of him for it. It gave you the idea to print all of the pictures you'd taken and make a scrapbook, which Dean laughs at but sometimes you catch him looking through it. He added a few of his own and you can't help but notice how much happier he looked when he was real young.

World's Largest Thermometer: Baker, California. Six months with the Winchesters. "Imagine getting that shoved up your ass." That's what Dean said and Sam even chuckled a bit, which surprised you. You didn't know Sam to laugh at things so silly or inappropriate as that so the fact that he was chuckling made you laugh even harder. You sat on Sam's shoulders and tried to reach the top of the red marker while Dean took a picture, then you took over the camera when Dean decided to try and climb up the world's largest thermometer. He didn't make it very far before falling and landing on his butt; he complained for days about that, but every time you offered to take over driving so he could lay in the backseat, you were greeted by a string of expletives, a bout of silence, then an embarrassed apology from the eldest Winchester. You didn't mind: he was cute when he was grumpy.

Gorilla Holding a VW Bug: Leicester, Vermont. Ten months with the Winchesters. Dean was appalled that someone would keep a bug alive for that long, especially since VW is "the devil's brand of car." Sam was quick to inform his older brother that it is, indeed, not, and that Lucifer preferred flight over anything else and you interjected to say that you figured it was improbable that Lucifer had a favorite car brand. Sam laughed when you said that, then agreed, and Dean slapped his brother's arm before accusing him of trying to steal his woman. You got a picture of everyone hanging from the gorilla's arm, and it wasn't until Sam was hanging—the last person—that the owners found out and called the cops on you. Somehow the three of you managed to escape without wearing orange, and Dean held your hand while you squealed away, you in the front seat between each of the Winchesters the whole while. Dean told you he loved you after the three of you nearly died, but the car was in tact so Dean's stress levels were only high for a little while. After he realized Sam was okay, after he realized you were okay, he was okay, too. The three of you got dinner at one of Sam's favorite eateries and Dean complained when they didn't have burgers. What kind of place doesn't have burgers?

Dinosaur Park: Rapid City, South Dakota. Fourteen months with the Winchesters. After visiting this, Dean made you and Sam watch the entire Jurassic Park series with him in the motel room. You pulled out some of the knowledge your sister laid on you about dinosaurs (she was such a nerd, was really good at that dinosaur crap) and Dean had to whisper into your ear when he told you that you were being really sexy right then. Sam must have overheard because he threw a pillow at the back of Dean's head, which Dean picked up and chucked back at him, missed, and ended up breaking the picture that hung above the bed. Silence fell while the three of you looked at each other, but when Dean's cackle broke the silence all tension disappeared and you only laughed, leaned against him, allowed him to put his arm around you. He smelled like soap, he just got out of the shower so that made sense, and that was the last thing you smelled before falling asleep. You were in the bed with Dean's arms wrapped around your waist the next morning, and you couldn't stop smiling when you realized he must have managed to pick you up and get you under the covers without your waking. He made breakfast for you that morning, then promptly told Sam to make his own. You shared with Sam and Dean smacked your butt every time you turned your back to him because of it. Sam said he was going to vomit if the two of you kept that up.

Cadillac Ranch: Amarillo, Texas. Sixteen months with the Winchesters. Dean proposed to you by hiding a ring by one of the cars; Sam must have been in on it because he was the only reason you went up to one of the cars in the first place. It was a simple ring, it had no gems or stones of any kind and you remembered Dean getting the ring at a thrift store quite some time ago, but you never imagined what he was using it for. He got down on a knee and everything, was grinning like a moron while you tried to hold back your tears and told him that yes, even though neither of you were technically alive, you would love to marry him. He stood and lifted you when he kissed you, then, a very cliché and ridiculously happy moment. But you wouldn't have traded it for the world.

You wouldn't have traded any of it for the world.
