More Than A Petrova (SPN/TVD)

Chapter 3

Dean glared at the vampire. "What gave you that idea?" He sneered as Sam's breathing started to slow down. "You okay Sammy?"

"Please...tell me...he's joking." Sam said between coughs as he took in a few deep breaths. It was bad enough the first time when they figured out that Dean had fathered an Amazon girl that wanted to kill Dean just because he was her father but now...Sam couldn't handle the news. If Dean was a father, he would have told Sam about it the moment he knew; that is not something you keep from your brother...right?

Dean sighed as he pulled his hand back. "I wish I could."

Sam turned to Dean in hopes that maybe he was reading the situation wrong but the guilty look on his brother's face was all the confirmation he needed. "Oh that's just perfect." Sam blurted out as he flew his hands up in the air before he slumped into the couch. "Not only have you been keeping secrets from me but you told a vampire that you were a father before your own brother!" He protested further before he glared at his guilty brother.

"Don't go there Sam." Dean warned with a hardened stare. It was obvious to Dean that Sam thought this was another Benny-problem all over again.

Damon took a sip of his drink before he added his two-cents in; things didn't need to escalate any further. "If it helps, he didn't tell me. I figured it out on my own."

Sam turned to glare at the vampire. "How?"

Damon smirked. "I'm just awesome like that." He quipped before he took another sip of his drink.

"No Damon, seriously how did you figure it out?" Dean asked as a dozen worst-case-scenarios popped into his head. He never told anyone about being a father, let alone being the Petrova doppelganger's father so if Damon figured it out, was it something that others would have picked up on? Did anyone else know?

Damon shrugged, not really seeing what the true problem was. "It's not that hard to put together."

"Meaning?" Dean pushed since he needed to know if anyone else had figured it out like Damon had.

Damon sighed as he swirled around the remaining liquid in his glass. "Well, you both share some mannerisms." He stated as he started to mentally compare the two humans.

The stubbornness was definitely inherited because Damon remembered how Dean wouldn't budge when it came to a job or when it came to an argument that he was so sure he was right about. When it came to certain things, Dean just wouldn't budge on the subject. Elena, on the other hand, displayed her stubbornness whenever she didn't get her way or when she disobeyed a suggestion that was initially made for her safety...something that seemed to be happening a lot lately.

Another trait was the charisma. Dean would use his charms on the ladies and he could talk his way around people until he got whatever he needed from them, whether it was for business or pleasurable purposes. Even when it got tough, Dean would stick with his charms to get through the rough patches as his façade and told people that he was alright. Elena had a charisma that had everyone falling in love with her, whether as a friend or as a lover, she was just a people-pleaser and quite enjoyable in practically anyone's company. Of course this charisma had diminished since her adoptive parents' death but that was understandable.

Their ability to put others before themselves was something Dean and Elena did without question. For Dean, it was mainly seen when he hunted because he would put himself in harm's way to protect an innocent. Sometimes he would outright chose to put himself in the line of fire to give another person a chance to survive. For Elena, this may have been seen through minor actions in the past but ever since the supernatural came into her life, Elena's compassion is the strongest in the group as she worries for everyone's well-being, whether she was friends with them or not.
