How To Be a Hunter- A Supernatural Fanfic

Chapter 13

Dean's P.O.V.

I didn't go to sleep that night, instead I replayed the scene with Stella in my head over and over wishing it would change and that I told her how I felt instead. No matter how much I wished though, it never happened. I decided to open her iPod back up and scrolled through her music and playlists. She had practically a playlist for everything, she even had one that was titled "I fucking hate men" and it had music that just screamed how pissed she could get. I laughed and pictured her listening to it when she was mad, she was so beautiful. I kept scrolling through the playlists and found one that was titled "True Love" and I decided hit shuffle on that one. A song titled Crazy Beautiful by some person named Andy Grammer came on and I rolled my eyes at the softness of her music taste. I would've never listened to anything like this, but I couldn't help but like it since it made me think of her. He sang about a girl that he just found unbelievably beautiful and described what he loved about her, the girl he sang about sounded so much like Stella. How she said she was a rebel but she was way too sentimental, how she is precious when she gets mad, how she sings whatever she wants and doesn't care, and how she is just wild and unlike anything else; I swear he was singing about Stella and how he felt was exactly how I felt. 

I love her more than I could ever understand and I could never want anyone else besides her, but the difference between me and him was that Stella never got to know how I felt. I frowned and paused the song and put the iPod back under my pillow. "Dean?" I heard Sam knock on my door. 

"Come on in." I yelled back. 

Sam walked in and gave me a curious look. "What was that you were listening to?" 

"Nothing." I dismissed. "Whats up Sam?" 

"Gadreel is here... He has news..." He trailed off. 

"What about?" 

"It's about Stella. Metatron has a plan to trap her and kill her... and he plans on executing his trap tonight." 

I sat up straight and looked at him. "Where?" 

"Some forest in Colorado. Gadreel will lead us too him if we let him." 

"I don't trust that son of a bitch after what he did to you Sam." 

"I know, I wouldn't either in any other circumstance, but this is Eden we're talking about. He was the one that failed to guard it, so of course he would want to bring it back for a second chance in Heaven. It makes sense and you know it does." 

I sighed, "Fine." I got out of bed and Sam followed me down the hallway to the library where I saw Cas and Crowley talking. "What the hell are you doing out?" I paused and glared in Crowley's direction.

"I don't need to explain myself to you." Crowley responded. 

"Yes you do or I'm going to throw you back in where you belong!" 

"He wants to help, Dean. He doesn't want to be a part of Hell anymore." Cas said, stepping in front of Crowley. 

I shook my head and walked away. "What the hell has this girl done to us? Just a few weeks ago we didn't even know this girl existed!" I walked over to the stairs and turned and stared at everyone in silence and they did the same. "Go!" I motioned up the stairs. Everyone quickly filed up the stairs and out the bunker, but before Gadreel had the chance to step onto the stairs I blocked him. "I swear if you make one wrong move, I will kill you. You help us bring back Stella and that's it. Got it?" 

"Easy brother, I truly mean to help. I no longer agree with Metatron's ways. I want Eden and peace just as much as you do, possibly more. So please trust me let me help you." He said, putting his hands up in an act of peace. 

I let him go and he walked past me up the stairs. I shook my head and ran back to my room to grab her iPod and then turned back to follow them to my Impala. I slid her iPod into my back pocket and whispered a message to the wind. "Please, Stella just hold on. For me."

Stella's P.O.V

Soon enough the sky became dark and it was becoming harder to see where to walk through the trees. My surroundings became darker and scarier as I listened to the leaves rustling behind me, making me flinch and stop to check if I was being followed. I thought about turning back several times, seeing that I made a mistake and should not have left the protection Sam, Dean, and Cas offered, but then I remembered Dean and I's fight and tears sprung to my eyes realizing I couldn't go back. I could never face Dean again especially after learning that the whole thing was a lie and he never cared. 

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize the overgrown root that popped over the surface of the Earth and tripped me. I landed on me shin and hissed in pain as warm blood trickled down my leg. I rolled onto my back and held my leg to my body and rubbed it, trying to make the pain go away, I could tell it was going to bruise. "Dammit." I whispered. "Really good timing, Stella." 

I stopped when I heard a twig snap in the direction I was coming from and snapped my head up to peer into the darkness where I saw a silhouette moving in the darkness. I quickly moved behind the tree I tripped over and hoped that they didn't notice me. That is when I heard a familiar voice call out in the distance. 

"Stella! Stella I'm sorry please come back! We need you!" It was Dean. "Stella, please! I didn't mean what I said! Just come back!" 

A smile came across my face and I peered back around thee trunk to see the silhouette walking away and that time I could tell it was Dean. 

"Stella!" I heard other voices cry out that I placed as Cas, Sam's, and Gabriel's. 

I stood up and yelled back. "I'm here guys! I'm here!" 

I turned to where I saw Dean who was getting farther and farther and limped after him. "Dean! I'm here! It's me!" I cried out as tears of happiness spilled down my cheeks. He didn't hear me and kept on walking so I yelled again. "Dean! Wait please! It's me!" He somehow kept getting farther and farther until I couldn't see him anymore and I cursed and started walking faster. "Dean!" I shouted looking for him.

"Stella please where are you!" I heard him yell.

"Dean, I'm here!" I cried out frantically. It was when I came to a clearing in the trees that I knew I lost him. "No." I whimpered. "Dean? Cas? Where are you!?!" I cried out. I didn't hear a response so I fell to my knees in defeat. 

"Stella." I heard someone behind me and I looked up in joy and that quickly fell away when I saw a man with black eyes grinning down at me. 

"Welcome home." He spread his arms out and soon angels and demons pored out of the trees with weapons in their hands. 

I stood up quickly and turned in a circle keeping an eye on all of them. I bent down in the fighting stance that Dean taught me even though I knew there was no chance of me surviving this.
