Summary: You and Dean don't always get along, so when he calls for you to pick him and Charlie up from a bar at two in the morning, you're reluctant to help. Then you find yourself stuck in a panic because of your claustrophobia, so Dean decides to give you something sweet to focus on instead.

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

For the past hour, Charlie has been ranting on the phone about the girl who dumped her. She's not usually a commitment girl, but she really liked this girl. Being her younger sister, you're the one she always goes to whenever she gets out of a relationship. You're the one to hear all of her rants, just like she's the one to hear yours.

"Charlie, I love you, but I have to go."

"No, don't leave. Want to go out with me to the bar that just opened?"

"Right now?"

"Yeah. We haven't hung out in so long, and I just need to forget about Candice. What better way to do that than with a copious amount of alcohol? You can be my wing woman."

"Charlie, I'm sorry, but I have work in the morning."

"Please? I won't even be out long. We can go out at nine and be back by eleven. You can sleep by midnight and wake up in time for work at nine. Please?"

You haven't seen her in a while, but you hate sleeping late. Yes, you don't start work until nine, but you have to be there early for a meeting. Maybe you can go out a little earlier than nine.

"I don't know..."

"Please? Dean will be there."

You bark out a hostile laugh and get comfortable in bed. "Absolutely not. I don't know why you think Dean being there will make me want to go."

"Please?" she begs.

"No. I'm sorry, but I have to be at work early for a meeting, anyway. Go have fun with Dean, okay? I'll talk to you tomorrow."

You hang up before she can say anything else. You might have said yes if it were just you and Charlie, but you'd rather stick a needle in your eye than spend any time with Dean. Charlie was doing just fine until Sam and Dean barged into her life. She was doing well working for Dick Roman, and they turned her life upside down.

Yes, they won against Dick, and she survived, but it didn't stop them from reaching out when they needed her. For a time, you hated Charlie for always agreeing to do whatever they wanted. She's your only sister, and your parents are dead. If Charlie died, then you'd see no other reason to go on. She's your rock, your best friend.

You can't lose her.

Sam gets that. He's nice, and he always feels so guilty for calling Charlie in. At least Sam tries all other possible ways to get what he wants, so when he calls her, you know she's the last resort. You don't mind as much knowing he tries to keep her out of it.

Dean, on the other hand, calls her in for dumb shit all the time. If she's in trouble with monsters, it's usually his fault. It doesn't help that he's stupid gorgeous, too. That's another reason why you don't like him. If he were ugly, he wouldn't get away with half the shit he does, but he's dumb and pretty and uses his charm to your disadvantage.

Fucking idiot.

You fall asleep twenty minutes later to the sound of your white noise machine. When you wake up, you expect the sun to be already creeping up the horizon, but it's pitch black outside. What time is it? You look up to see the projected time reflecting on the ceiling and frown. Two in the morning. What woke me up?
