Hope For a New Beginning

Here comes the King

"Do we even know if this is going to work?" Dean asked Sam as he let out a sigh. Sam shrugged his shoulders in response as they began to try to summon Lamia. Cas was standing off to the side, leaning against the wall. He was watching Dean set up the materials to summon lamia.
"You just going to stand there and admire Dean or do you wanna help?" Sam jokingly said.
"He's probably feeling too awkward since he saw my wife and I naked." Dean said laughing.
"I.. Uh.. I'll go in the kitchen.."

Alice sat at the dining room table eating a bag of Lay's wavy chips while Dayna was wiping off the counter.
"So Cas... Saw you naked?" Alice said while she was chewing. Dayna looked down at the counter, moving the rag out of the way, and chuckled.
"It's a .. long story..."
"Tell me!" Alice said as she couldn't contain her curiosity. Dayna sighed and laughed once again but took a seat next to Alice.
"So Dean and I, were.. Uh...."
"Getting it on?" Alice finished as she was completely focused on dayna's now reddened face.
"You could say that.. and um.. out of nowhere, WHOOSH... Castiel appears." Dayna said while Alice broke into laughter.
"Oh my god.... Wh-hat did he ... Do?" Alice said between her laughs.
"He said I looked lovely." Dayna said joining in on the laughter.
"I think Cassie.. Has a small crush on you!" Alice said making fun of them.
"Did you just call him Cassie?"
"Dayna and Cas, sitting in a tree.." Alice began to say in a sing songy voice.
"Oh so help me god if you finish your fucking sentence...." Dayna said but was interrupted by Alice making kissing noises.
"You're silly.." Dayna said rolling her eyes.
"Remember when mom used to say that?" Alice said changing the mood to a serious one.
"Yes, Alice.. I do.." Dayna said sighing but stood up to plant a kiss on her forehead and to ruffle her hair. She went back to wiping the counters.
"Do you think mom would be proud of us?"
"Alice, she's proud of you." Dayna said emphasizing the word," you".
"But-"
"You and mom had a completely different relationship than what I had with her.." Dayna said thinking about how she practically raised Alice. It was silent for a little while until Cas came into the room.
"Aw, look who it is!" Alice said smiling.
"Hey Cas, how's the summoning going?" Dayna causally asked.
"It's uh.. It's going.." he said while scratching the back of his neck.
"Wow, it's like you can feel the awkwardness in here..." Alice said chuckling. Thank god that this moment in the kitchen didn't last long because they heard a familiar voice who they knew was lamia.
"She's here..." Cas said and the three walked out.
"oh, hello lovelies..." Lamia said but pursed her lips as she realized she was stuck in a devils trap that was underneath the rug."
"Was that necessary?"
"Where the hell have you been?!" Dean asked harshly.
"Hey, easy there tiger! Crowley's searching for me." Lamia tried to explain. Cas, Dayna, and Alice all just watched not knowing what to say.
"And?" Sam added.
"He knows I'm working for you, the winchesters and the girls that were previously singers!" Lamia said huffing.
"Oh.." Dayna replied catching on.
"He'll kill me... I need to find a safe place to go where he can't find me." Lamia said.
"Stay here for a little while until we can figure out a safer place.." Alice said and the group turned to her.
"What...?" Dean asked as he looked at Alice for an explanation.
"Oh, come on! Where else is she supposed to go, and this is temporary until we find out where she can go.. Plus she's a great help to our whole demon and rouge Angels that are out to kill us and several other hunters!" Alice said. The rest knew that she was right.
Dean sighed as he lifted up the carpet to smudge the Devils trap so she could be free.
"I'm going to like it here.." Lamia said winking at Alice making red rise to her cheeks.
"Thanks love, for the wonderful idea!" Lamia said as she walked closer to Alice.
"Okay, okay, we get it, now please don't make my wife uncomfortable."
"Jealous Sam, that your wife has a tiny crush on me?" Lamia added with a smirk. Sam turned to Alice.
"Cas has a crush on dayna! Gotta go..." Alice said as she practically ran to the kitchen.

Only a couple hours had passed, with Dean, lamia, and Sam in the kitchen drinking beers. Alice had retreated back to the living room with Dayna . Cas leaning against the wall, again, in thought. Alice cuddled up to her sister, yawning, trying not to fall asleep. They both were beginning to doze off but were snapped out of it when they heard an accent say," hello girls... And celestial being..."
"Crowley?" Alice said standing up in shock.
"Where's the boys? Working with that bitch I assume?"
"We don't know what you're talking about..." Dayna said speaking quickly and panicked. They tried to stall him as Cas slipped into the kitchen to warn everyone that Crowley was here.
"I know you're working with lamia!" Crowley harshly spat.
"Who in the hell is lamia?" Alice added chuckling.
"Oh darling, like you don't know...."
"Let me just go get Sam and Dean.. Okay..?" Alice said while she shuffled into the kitchen.
"Okay, lamia, let's go through the back. Dean give me your keys.." Alice whispered.
"Are you sure?" Dean asked.
"There's not enough time, give me your keys!" Alice whispered loudly shaking her head, fumbling with her purse. He tossed her the keys, to which she caught, and they exited through the back quietly.
Alice drove and turned up the radio hoping the lamia wouldn't make conversation.
"Why so tense, love?" Lamia asked which made Alice sigh.
"Crowley is a dick and him being on our backs kind of tenses me out?" Alice replied in a sharp tone. Lamia reached over to turn off the radio but put her hand over Alice's which made Alice jump.
"Hey, it's going to be alright." Lamia added softly, smiling.
"I'm trying to drive.." Alice said and huffed out in annoyance.
"A little hand holding doesn't say much, it's not like you're having sex with me in the backseat. But there's room-"
"Lamia!" Alice yelled cutting her off but laughed at her sexual advances.
"Where are we going, love?"
"I don't know.. I would suggest a bar but I can't drink. I don't wanna be around people at all if they're intoxicated or smoking."
"Miss it that bad, huh?" Lamia asked.
"Yep. Why don't we just go grab a burger or something?"
"Or something?" Lamia added and wiggled her eyebrows to make Alice laugh.
"We can go see the city lights, it's where I drive to when I'm not doing well. Dayna and I go there a lot."
"I like that idea. Dayna is really protective over you.." Lamia added.
"She is, she's the best."
Alice soon pulled over and out of the way and leaned on the car to look at the city and lamia joined her.

"I thought your sister was getting Samantha and squirrel..." Crowley said harshly, having no patience.
"She uh.. Is.." Dayna stuttered and the boys and Cas walked out.
"what do you know... It's Crowley.." Dean said smirking as he took a sip of his beer and wrapped his arm around dayna's waist.
"Look, I know you know who lamia is. I need her."
"Wow, needy..." Dean whispered.
"Where is she? And what Is she doing with you knuckleheads?"
"We've been working with her." Sam chirped in.
"Working with her?" Crowley asked raising his eyebrows.
"To go after the demons and Angels that want to eliminate the hunters."
"Oh, what a shame. If you need a hand, I can help.."
"You.. Want to help?" Dayna asked in disbelief.
"Yes..."
"Why do you even need lamia?" Dayna asked.
"She stole something from me.."
"I'm guessing it was important?" Dean asked.
"My journal."
"Oh, your diary?" Dean teased.
"And my bones." Crowley added and the whole room fell silent.
"How did she get your ..." Cas asked out loud.
"Not important, I just need my stuff back." Crowley said as Sam handed him a beer.
