A Supernatural Life- Season 1

Chapter 6

Chapter 6- Skin

I opened my eyes and blinked in confusion before settling my gaze on Sam and Dean, who were looking at me over their seats. I frowned at them.

"What? You never watched a teenage girl sleep before?" I mumbled and they rolled their eyes at me as I sighed and shifted in my seat before sitting upright instead of slouching in the position I'd fallen asleep in this morning, since I hadn't slept well last night. Dean shook his head and frowned at me.

"What's going on?" he asked and I frowned at him before shrugging.

"What are you asking me for? I just woke up to see you chuckleheads staring at me. Talk about scaring me half to death" I replied and Dean glared at me as Sam sighed and shook his head at me.

"That's not what I mean and you know it" Dean stated, making me frown in confusion. He'd lost me; then again I was very slow when I had just woken up.

"You sleep with Sam every night now and when I wake up, you're already awake and showered, or I wake you up and you look half dead. Now tell me what is going on. Are you having nightmares again?" he asked and I bit the inside of my cheek before shrugging in response and shaking my head.

"I don't-"

"Don't lie to me Ali. I know you remember and I'm not blind so stop treating me like I'm stupid" Dean snapped and I sighed, before rubbing my eyes tiredly and nodding.

"Yeah they've come back" I sighed and Dean frowned before looking at Sam who shrugged and looked out of the window.

"Dude, you knew and didn't tell me?" Dean asked harshly and I sighed.

"Don't blame your brother Dean. I told him not to say anything because I didn't want to worry you" I sighed and Dean glared before turning around in his seat to look at me easily.

"Ali, whatever you think about you having to look after Sam and I and protect us is fine, but it doesn't mean to keep putting yourself on the backburner" Dean frowned and I sighed before shrugging.

"Well Sam isn't sleeping either and I figured that we may as well keep each other company and not interrupt you. We can't have all of us being sleep deprived" I shrugged and Sam snorted slightly as Dean frowned at me.

"This has been happening longer than I thought?" he asked and I shrugged.

"Err... over three weeks now" I said and Dean squeezed his eyes closed before opening them and fixing me with a look.

"What, before the last job?" he asked and I shook my head.

"No, the nightmares returned the night before Jerry phoned about the demon on the plane" I sighed and saw Sam turn in his seat to look at me but I ignored him and Dean sighed before shaking his head and turning around in his seat.

"Do the two of you think that I can't handle these things or something?" he asked and I bit my lip before shuffling forwards and wrapping my arms around his neck, resting my chin on my arm over his right shoulder.

"I'm sorry Dean, but Sam and I love you. You already knew about Sam's nightmares and I thought that mine would disappear after a little while, that I was just stressed because they reappear when I'm stressed and I haven't been very well either, so I'm sorry" I sighed and Dean shook his head but twined his fingers with mine, where they hung over his chest.

"Were you not going to tell me then?" he asked and I shrugged in reply.

"Maybe, but I probably wouldn't have you told for about another month at least. But now you know, let's drop it, yeah?" I asked before kissing his temple and pulling away slowly, which made him sigh.
