Episode: Season 5 - Swan Song
After everything that happened with Dean last night... I broke it off with Hal. I could tell he was crushed and I hated myself for it but I knew it was the right thing to do. Hal was too sweet to be played like this. I couldn't keep pretending to love someone that I didn't. It wasn't fair to either of us. I went to sleep after that, warm in my bed at Bobby's house when there was a sudden knock on my door.
Crawling out of bed slowly, I made my way to it. I glanced at my clock and let out a groan when I saw the time. 2:35 AM. Who in the world was here at this hour?!
"Hold on, hold on, I'm coming," I grumbled just as I wrenched it open.
Dean stood before me. He looked a bit nervous, I could tell.
"Dean, hey," I said, wiping the sleep from my eyes.
"Hi, Parker," he smiled slightly and I tilted my head to the side in confusion, "I know it's late but-"
"No, no, it's okay. I'm just surprised," I told him, shutting the door behind me before sitting down on the stairs.
Giving me a small smile, he joined me and it was then I realized I was still in my pajamas. But I just shrugged. Oh, well, it's not like Dean ever cared about that kind of thing.
"So how are you?" he asked me quietly and I knew he was referring to the Crowley thing.
I shrugged slightly, "Okay, I guess. I'm coming to terms with the whole situation anyway,"
"That's, uh, that's good. I mean, that you're trying to cope with it. Not the situation 'cause that's, you know, not so good-" he said, stumbling over his words nervously.
"You all right?" I asked him in concern.
He never acted this way. Sighing, he scratched the back of his neck before meeting my eyes.
"No, not really," he admitted and I twisted in my seat to face him as he did the same.
"What is it?" I asked, worried as he looked down at his hands.
"Look, I have no illusions. Okay, I know that I messed up big time. And for that...I am so sorry, Parker. And I know the life that I live. I know how that's gonna end for me. Whatever, I'm okay with that," he said seriously, making me frown slightly but then his eyes met mine once more, "But I wanted you to know that when I do picture myself happy it's with you,"
I sucked in a sharp breath at his revelation, feeling tears prick my eyes as a small smile lit up my face, "Wow..."
My heart felt like it was soaring in my chest. Dean...Dean just apologized. And...he still cared about me.
"I mean, you don't have to say anything-" he started but I cut him off.
"I mean, I know. I know... I want to," I told him softly and something changed in his eyes.
