The Perfect Crime [ABANDONED]

Angel and Man

Lisa dropped her backpack on the floor as she walked into her room, flopping over on her bed. Two weeks. In two weeks time, she could get her cast off. She was going to miss the rest of skating season, but at least she was going to have plenty of time to get back in tip-top shape for next year. And then she was going to blow away every judge. If she was good enough, maybe she could catch the attention of a big team. Maybe, just maybe, she'd have her shot at the Olympics. She shut her eyes and mused at how amazing it would be in two weeks, two weeks, two weeks....her eyes jolted open as the door to her room squeaked. 

"Your mom let me in," Benny said shyly from the doorway. Lisa smiled. 

"Come in," she said. Benny did as she said and shut the door behind him, sitting down by her side. 

"You look happy," he noted. 

"I am. The doctor's say I can get my cast off in two weeks," Lisa said, sliding her hand into Benny's. "And as soon as I do, I'm going to end things with Dean. I feel so horrible sneaking around behind his back, but he's just so worried for me, and I don't want to...I don't know. I think it'll be easier. I can blame it on skating. Say I don't have enough time for him...I'll think of something." Benny cut off her rambling by pulling her into a gentle kiss. 

"It's okay, I don't mind waiting," he said with a small smile. 

"Well, I do. I just don't want to do this. And I don't think he does either. Sometimes I catch him smiling, and I...I know it's not me that he's smiling about," Lisa smiled and looked out the window. "You know the best part? When I catch him doing that, I'm happy. I'm so happy for him." 

"I'm glad you are," Benny said. "I don't want you to still have feelings for him. If you did, I wouldn't ever want to come in between you two. You know that, don't you?" Benny asked. Lisa nodded and kissed him again. 

"Yeah, I am well aware," she said with a chuckle. "I don't though. I'm always going to love Dean, but I've never been in love with him." 

"Lucky for me," Benny said. She hit him on the arm lightly but then nodded. 

"Look, I've been thinking. The weekend I'm scheduled to get my cast off, my parents are out of town. And we have that cabin out by the lake, and I was thinking maybe you and I could go? Get some private time?" Lisa offered. Benny blushed but nodded. 

"I would like that a lot, Lisa," he mumbled. 

"Good, then it's settled," she said before pushing him onto the bed for another kiss.

Dean rolled off the couch and headed up the stairs to his room, careful to knock before he opened it. He raised an eyebrow as he saw Michael sprawled across the floor, Lucifer on his back as he attempted to wrestle an eraser out of Michael's hand. The older Milligan brother had his hand so outstretched that Lucifer couldn't reach it even though he was literally laying on top of Michael. 

"Umm...hi," Dean said, frowning at his best friend. Michael blushed and pushed Lucifer off of him. 

"We were just studying," Michael explained, handing the eraser back to Lucifer. Dean tried not to focus too hard on the look of hurt that crossed Lucifer's face. 

"I can see that," Dean said, gesturing at the textbooks and notebooks all over the floor. "I'm just here to get clothes. Cas and I are going on a date tonight." 

"Oh, where?" Michael asked. 

"The roller skating rink in Stull," Dean explained. "I thought it was far enough away where no one will see us while being close enough it doesn't feel like we're hiding too much."
