Dean walks out of the bathroom with Liddy wrapped up in a towel. Sam looks up and frowns when he see's the look on her face. Liddy' s face is all red and she has a snotty nose from crying. "Dude what happened?" Sam ask's from where his siting in front of his laptop.

Dean gently sits Liddy down on the bed and pats her head before grabbing her bag "she really does not like her wound being cleaned. It's almost all healed up so I don't get why she reacts like this." Sam looks over at Liddy as she wraps her arms around her self trying to stop dean from being able to touch it again.

"I don't think it's a pain thing. I think it just scares her." Sam says while thinking. Dean nods "yeah I think your right. But she doesn't have anything to be scared of now" Dean finish's in a cutesy voice trying to get her to smile. Clearly Liddy wasn't fulling for it though since she just crunched up her nose and tries to crawl away from him.

"Nope, get your but back here little miss. For starters I know better then to not put cloths on your straight away or your little nudy butt will be running around the room, two I'm not doing anything more to your boo boo. It's pretty much allll better. No more touchy." He says as he starts putting her in some clean cloths.

Deans words seem to work as Liddy starts giggling "no more?" Dean shakes his head. Once dean got her all dressed, Liddy was so happy that she didn't need her boo boo to be touched anymore, she had so much energy she started running around the room looking at everything she could get her hands on. Dean watched her carefully just in case she found something she shouldn't.

Sam smiled then turned back to his laptop. "So there's the 3 drowning victims this year..." Sam says readying threw articles. Dean was now sorting dirty clothes "and before that?" Sam found a new articl "ahhh yeah, 6 more over the past 35 years. Those bodies were never recovered either. If there is something out there. It's picking up its pace."

Dean smells a pair of liddy's shorts and gags before throwing them across the room to the dirty pile " what we got a lake monster on a binge?" Sam shakes his head "this hole lake monster thing, it just bugs me." Dean leaned closer to Sam "why?" He starts readying threw some of the articles Sam has brought up.

"Locness, lake chanpain. There are literally 100's of eye witness accounts but here it's almost nothing. What ever it is out there, no ones living to talk about it." Sam says as he scrolls threw more articles until dean stops him and points at one "wait, bar. Christopher bar, ah where have I herd that name before?" Dean leans down close to look at the laptop over Sam's shoulder.

"Christopher bar, the victim in may.... oh" the brothers a shocked by the photo that pops up of Lucas, Andreas son. " Christopher bar was andrea's husband, lucas's father. Apparently he took Lucas out swimming. Lucas was on a floating wooden platform when Chris drowned.... 2 hours before the kid got rescued.."

Dean stands up shocked by what Sam read out. It hit him in the gut so hard and made him think of his baby sister. He couldn't image her going threw what the kid had, but he realises she's stuck in a life where she's gonna see things even more horrifying. It breaks his heart.

"Maybe we have an eye witness after all..." Sam says scratching his head uncomfortably. Dean continues to frown "no wonder that kid was so freaked out. Watching one of your parents die isn't something you just get over." Dean says as he thinks about his mum.

Breaking the mood, Liddy pops up beside the boys with some cloths over the top of her head "rawr!" She tries to be scary but ends up giggling and running off to something else. The boys look at each other and realise she has too much energy right. "Dude, remember Andrea saying something about taking Lucas to the park... what do you say we take this one out for a walk and pay them a little visit?" Dean says pointing over his shoulder at Liddy who was currently rolling around and giggling at absolutely nothing.

....

They made it to the park and there are kids running everywhere. Dean can see they are all way to old to be playing with Liddy so he doesn't let her got over to the play ground. He watch's her walk in front of him picking up dandelion's a few steps in front of him when Sam smacks his arm "over there" Sam points out Andrea siting in a seat not far from them. "Liddy come on, this way bubs" dean says as he tries to get her to follow them in andrea's direction.

Sam is the first to speak up to Andrea "can we join you?" This makes her jump but then she smiles "I'm here with my son" before she can continue, little hands start tapping her. She looks down so see Liddy holding out some crumpled dandelion's to her. Dean comments "yeah, we're here with this little munchkin, she has waaay to much energy right now." Right as he finish's saying this, Liddy takes off running right over to where Lucas was siting.

"Me draw too?" Liddy ask's Lucas. Lucas looks up at her for a few seconds before pushing a blank piece of paper over to her. She grabs a crayon and starts scribbling on the paper as dean walks up behind them. "How's it going?" Dean asks as he Seattle's himself down beside Liddy and pulls onto his knee. He's unsure how to start a conversation with Lucas so he looks at everything he's got set up.

Dean spots some army men "ah, I use to love these things." He starts making gun sounds and attacks liddy's cheek with one of the figures making her squirm and giggle. He stops and she goes back to scribbling. He looks over to see Lucas didn't pay any attention to them. "So crayons are more your thing? That's cool, chicks dig artists... hey these are pretty good" dean says as he looks at a few of lucas's drawings.

Liddy taps a crayon on deans hand and try's to hand it to him. Dean smiles and takes it from her and starts drawing on her piece of paper with her. "You mind if I sit and draw with you and Liddy for a while? I'm not so bad myself". Liddy pays close attention to deans drawing and try's to copy everything he's drawing.

"You know, I'm thinking you can hear me you just don't want to talk. I don't know exactly what happened to your dad, but I know it was something real bad. I think I know how you feel. When I was your age, i saw something.... anyway. Maybe you don't think anyone will listen to you, or ah.. or believe you. I want you to know that I will. You don't even have to say anything, you could draw me a picture about what you saw that day with your dad. On the lake.... ok, no problem." Dean looks down at the two pictures on there paper and is really proud of Liddy copying his drawing even if he sucks at drawing.

He takes the paper and shows it to Lucas "this is for you. This is my family. That's my dad..and ah.... that's my mum. That's my geek brother. And this perfect little angel is my baby sister Liddy." Liddy giggles at being mentioned. Dean is quiet for a few seconds looking at the picture " alright, so I'm a sucky artist. We'll see you around Lucas." Dean says putting the picture down beside Lucas before getting up with Liddy.

He puts her down on the ground "I'll race you back to Sammy." Liddy giggles and takes off before he can say go "hey no fair. You cheated" he slowly jobs behind her so that she can win. They ran all the way back to sam and Andrea. Liddy throws her self into Sam's leg "winny winny!" Sam smiles down at her as dean smirks.

Dean looks over to Andrea who smiles down at Liddy sadly. She looks up at dean "Lucas hasn't said a word, not even to me...not since....his dad's accident." Dean nods sadly "yeah we herd. Sorry." Sam ask's "what do the doctors say?" Andrea sighs "that it's a kind of post traumatic stress." Sam says sadly "that can't be easy, for any of you."

Andrea nods "we moved in with my dad. He helps out a lot. It's just..... when I think about what Lucas went threw, what he saw." Dean looks over at Sam then down at Liddy and was busy wrapping herself around Sam's legs, off in her own little world "kids are strong. You'd be surprised what they can deal with."

Andrea says " you know, he use to have such life. He was hard to keep up with to tell you the truth. Now he just sits there. Drawing his pictures. Playing with his army men. I just wish.." Andrea says and looks over to see Lucas walking up to them. "Hey sweety"

Lucas silently holds up a piece of paper to dean. Everyone is shocked. Dean takes it "thanks.. thanks Lucas." Lucas walks back off and dean keeps looking at the picture before putting it away. "Well we best be taking this one home....ah, that's if we can detach her from his legs." They all giggle a tiny bit at Liddy being completely twisted around Sam's legs.

Dean bends down and looks at her twisting his head around "how on earth have to twisted around like that. I swear baby girl. Some times I think your not human." Sam and Dean giggle as she pokes her tongue out at him. Dean grabs her and removes her from Sam's leg. They start to walk off and wave to Andrea before heading back to the impala.
