Rain. All I could see was freaking RAIN. How much could it possibly rain in just one day?
Sam, Dean and I had been in the impala for hours trying to find a motel to rest at for the night. Typical salt n' burn in North Dakota, but in the pouring rain? I've had better hunts.
"Dean honestly, I love ACDC but how many times can you repeat this album?"
I groaned in frustration, hours on the road, clothes damp and exhaustion was slowly driving me mad. All I wanted was a change of tune, surely that's not too much to ask? "Quit with your whining (Y/N) I think that's a motel up ahead."
"Don't sell me a dream Dean, I swear to god I'm this clo-"
Oh sweet Jesus, a motel. Finally I could get out of these soggy clothes and get into a hot shower.
At the promise of dry clothes and a warm bed Sam perked up, he'd been quiet most of the ride, the corners of his mouth lifting into a tiny smile as he listened to mine and Deans bickering every now and then.
'1 VACANCY' The flashing LED sign read at the entrance to the motel. That meant sharing beds. Though I wasn't exactly a stranger to sharing with the boys, having one room meant one shower, and I was beyond prepared to fight for it. "Dibs on the first shower!" I shouted as soon as the sign came into view. "No freaking way (Y/L/N) that shower is mine!"
Sam shouted, quickly turning his head to look at me incredulously, like the idea of me getting the shower first personally offended him. I prepared for battle. I ran as fast as I could with my aching muscles but I knew Sam was running too, and there is no way I'll beat him, tiny legs VS long legs never turns out well. An uncontrollable bout of laughter bubbled up out of my chest and into the cold night air, I pushed my legs even faster, but I wasn't fast enough, a laughing Sam ran straight past me, his hair whipping around his face. "SAM WINCHESTER GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!"
I shouted through my laughter.
"Getting a little soft there (nickname)?"
Sam teased as he waited by the motel room door, breathing heavily.
"Shut it, Rapunzel."
I retorted, and because I'm really a child at heart, stuck my tongue out at him. Dean strolled over to the both of us, muttering something about Sam and I being children, but it sounded fond. As soon as the door was unlocked Sam pushed his way through the door, successfully knocking me flying into Deans chest.
"Oops, sorry (Y/N)"
Sam said with an impish grin on his face, Sam knew I was attracted to his brother, although he wouldn't ever say it outright, he knew I'd be embarrassed. I scowled at him, still pressed up against Deans chest. "You alright (Y/N)?"
Dean said, both hands on my shoulders, he had an amused look on his face, almost like he's trying not to laugh for my sake. I looked up at him, those eyes, damn it, I just couldn't find the words. "Uhh, yes."
I said with a too-big grin spread across my features, Deans grin softened when I smiled up at him, but queue the interrupting moose, "What in the hell are you guys still doing outside?"
I hastily removed myself from Deans arms in an attempt to cover up my ogling. The motel room really wasn't anything special, two double beds side by side, a small bedside cabinet placed in between them. The room was somewhat dingy but it was warm, and for that I was grateful.
As predicted, Sam was the first in the shower, leaving me shivering slightly, rummaging through my bag trying to find something that wasn't damp, the only thing I found was a pair of sweatpants, not exactly going to keep the top half of my body warm now is it? "No no no, are you kidding me?"
A little huff of air left my lips as I frowned at the damp contents of my duffle.
*Deans POV*
Finally somewhere I can get some sleep, it's not perfect, granted. But it's warm. "No no no, are you kidding me?"
My head snapped up at the sound of (Y/N)'s frustrated voice, she was standing, an adorable little frown on her face staring at the only dry clothing she had, sweatpants. The corner of my mouth quirked as I watched the scene unfold, I picked up practically the only hoodie I owned and threw it at (Y/N)'s head laughing quietly when she jumped at the unexpected hit. "Present for you kiddo." A genuine smile spread across her face, "Thanks Dean."
I noticed that her cheeks slowly grew red. Is she blushing? My god, she's adorable. I'm starting to get sappy, I could pinpoint exactly what it is that has me so interested in (Y/N) but we'd probably be here all night. Sam chose that moment to burst from the motel bathroom with just a towel covering his bottom half, he made his way over to (Y/N) and shook his soaking wet hair at her face. (Y/N) let out a small gasp and hit sam lightly on the back of the head, "Thanks Sam, real nice."
She said, her voice practically dripping with sarcasm. I knew that Sam and
(Y/N)'s relationship was platonic but I couldn't help but feel a small pang of jealousy, I quickly tucked it away and found something dry to wear. I heard the bathroom door shut behind (Y/N) and smiled a little bit because I knew she was going to come out wearing my clothes.
"You like her don't you?"
Sam said, a curious expression adorning his face. "What? Don't be stupid Sammy, it's (Y/N)"
He wasn't convinced. "Dean, I see the way you look at her, it's okay man, I know you've got a crush."
Okay, he's just teasing now, look at that face! He's trying to press my buttons.
"Crush! Sammy we are grown adults, I'm pretty sure crush isn't the right word."
"Fine then, you're attracted to her, but not just the physical attraction. Am I right?"
He was smiling, showing teeth now. "Shut up Sam." I muttered, my cheeks getting warm.
*(Y/N)'s POV*
I pulled Deans soft hoodie over my head, it smells like him, peppermint and a tiny bit of aftershave. It's so warm and comfortable I could die right here and now. I push open the bathroom door and flop down onto the closest bed, I open my eyes to see that Dean is laying right next to me, eyes piercing. "It suits you (nickname)."
And with that he got up and went into the bathroom. A warmth spread throughout my chest and I hid my face in my pillow to avoid Sammy seeing my giddy expression. "Goodnight (Y/N)" Sam came over to me to lightly peck me on the cheek, I smiled up at him and wished him goodnight before slipping into the half consciousness state where you're awake, but not totally aware of your surroundings.
The bathroom door swung open and then shut again, I felt the bed dip under the pressure of another body, and snuggled closer the to extra warmth. Arms wrapped around my small frame, I tucked my nose into the crook of Deans neck and pressed a small kiss there, I froze as I awaited his reaction. Dean simply sighed happily and hooked a finger under my chin so my face was in line with his, Dean pressed his lips to mine softly, slowly.
"Night (Y/N)"
"Goodnight Dean."
