Katherine

7.

K woke up to the smell of bacon. She opened her eyes and looked around. She was in a bed. She must've passed out talking to Sam and he carried her to bed. She got up and looked for some clothes to wear. She found a pair of blue jean skinny jeans, a black tank top, and a blue flannel over shirt. She went into the bathroom and took a shower. The water pressure was amazing and she didn't want to get out but she knew she had to or she would look like a raisin.
She didn't do anything special to her hair. It was long and very hard to maintain. But she dreaded haircuts. It was to her waist and was the longest she's ever been able to grow it.

She walked out of her room and into the kitchen. Dean was cooking a big breakfast.
He saw her and gave her a quick smile. "Mornin'. Hope you like to eat." He said flipping the bacon to the other side.
K smiled back. He must've went out last night and felt bad about what happened here them. She wasn't going to ask. The important thing is, he wasn't being a total douchebag.
"Do you need any help?" K asked.
"Yeah actually. You can grab me the eggs out of the fridge and the orange juice, and start pouring us all a nice glass of O.J." Dean replied.
K did as he asked. Sam walked into the kitchen as well and smirked and folded his arms across his chest.
"What?" Dean asked.
"Oh nothing." Sam said. It was like they were having a secret conversation between each other that only required looks.

Dean finished cooking breakfast and everyone sat down to eat. A few minutes later, K's phone vibrated in her pocket. Which was weird because no one texted her. She pulled it out and checked it. It was a message from Arthur. Her breath hitched in her throat.
'I miss you. Please come home.'
K didn't know what to say back. She was just frozen and confused on what to do.
"Everything ok?" Sam asked from across the table. She looked up and both Winchesters were looking at her.
"Uh yeah. Just spam email." She told them. They seemed to believe her because they went back to eating breakfast.
She sent a quick text back to avoid the Winchesters' glares.
'Meet me.'
Arthur didn't text back but K knew he would do it. She finished breakfast without another word to the brothers.
K was thinking of how she would get away from the Winchester's, and it was like Sam read her mind.
"Hey man, we're getting pretty low on groceries. We might need to make a run." He told Dean.
"Alright be ready in 10 or I'm leaving your ass." Dean said back.
"Can I come?" K asked a little too enthusiastically.
"Woah calm down. Yeah you can go I'm sure your tired of being stuck here. Just stay close to us. Literally anyone could be a demon." Sam told her. But K didn't care. All she wanted was to go home. Maybe her and Arthur would make up and he could protect her from evil things. She didn't need the Winchesters. K went to the bathroom and pulled out her phone to text Arthur.
'Meet me at the supermarket in Lawrence.'

'When?'

'Now'

------------------------

"I'm gonna go to the bathroom while you two shop for a minute." K told them.
Dean and Sam both nodded and walked off, scanning their grocery list. K turned toward the bathroom but as soon as the Winchesters were out of sight, she headed out the door.
It took a minute to find him considering the large parking lot but she finally spotted Arthur. She took a deep breath got in the car with him. He looked at her in disgust.
"Where did you get those rags, and where have you been?" He asked.
"I was staying with a friend, and these are her clothes." K said looking back at him.
"Cut the shit, K, you don't have any friends." He told her. K looked down at her lap. Arthur grabbed K's arm and she looked at him, terrified. "Where have you been?" He asked again, this time louder than before. K was thinking of what to say when Sam appeared outside of Arthur's open window. He had a gun pointed straight at him.
"Let her go." Sam said calmly yet firmly.
Arthur whipped his head around to see who was talking.
"Who to the hell are you?" He asked.
"Doesn't matter. Let her go." Sam said again.
"Sam please-" K started. Arthur cut her off.
"Sam? Sam Winchester? Ha. You're the so called friend she was staying with aren't you?" Arthur laughed.
K didn't notice the tears coming out of her eyes. She didn't know what to do. Dean opened her door and pulled her out. She couldn't help it, she grabbed him and hugged him, crying into his t-shirt. Dean hugged her back, telling her it was going to be ok. Sam lowered his pistol and backed away from Arthur, but never letting his gaurd down.
Arthur was furious. He got out behind Sam and threw his hands in the air. "What the hell is this? You've been gone two whole days and are already hugging on some other guy? Who is this joke anyway?" Arthur asked.
Dean pointed his finger at Arthur. "I'm the guy that's going to kill you if you ever touch her again, you son of a bitch! Didn't your dad ever teach you how to treat a woman?"
"As a matter of fact, he did. He taught me to be higher than a woman and not let her walk on him. And that if she got brave, you knock her back down to the floor where she belongs." Arthur smirked.
Dean was livid. He pushed K to the side and lunged for Arthur. He hit him with so much force they both fell and landed into the empty parking space beside them. Dean was on top of Arthur hitting him left and right, not showing any mercy. K ran towards them to stop the fight but Sam caught her.
"K you know he deserves every bit of that. " Sam told her. K watched as Dean kept hitting Arthur, Arthur getting a few hits in. But they didn't seem to phase Dean at all. After a few moments Sam stepped in and pulled Dean off, Arthur's blood evident on Deans hands.
"Come on, Dean. He's not worth anymore of our time." Sam said.
Arthur stood up as well, wiping blood off of his face. He looked straight at K.
"So. What's it gonna be?" He asked with his arms stretched out to the sides.
"Goodbye, Arthur." K told him. Dean wrapped an arm around her shoulders and kissed her on the head and they walked away from Arthur. Leaving him bloody and bruised, as he did to K just two days before.
