Just A Dream

Chapter 3

The Impala flies down the road following Bobby to the psychic's house. Dean drives with his brother in the passenger seat, the twins in the back arm wrestling. Dean glances in the rearview to see his daughters on either side of the car, leaning forward with their hands joined in the middle seat, Aspen's left hand resting on top of their right hands, making sure neither of them were starting before their uncle said they could. 

"Ready?" Sam asks. 

"Ready." The girls chorus. 

"3, 2, 1, go!" He says, turning in his seat to watch. Kenna waits a moment, seeming to struggle against her sister, before quickly slamming her twin's hand into the seat. 

"That's 4 wins for me and 1 for you." She says, grinning triumphantly. 

"You cheated!" Aspen exclaims, glaring at her sister, who raises a brow and cocks her head to the side. 

"How can I cheat?" She asks. "I only have one arm!" 

"You still could've cheated." Aspen says, crossing her arms. 

"You're just mad because you have the upper body strength of a two year old." Kenna snarks. 

"At least I have both my arms." Aspen shoots back. 

"Listen here you little-" 

"Girls!" Dean says from the front seat, cutting off whatever insult Kenna was about to hurtle at her sister. "That's enough." 

"She started it!" They say at the same time, pointing at each other. Sam stifles a laugh as he sees the exasperated look on his brother's face. Not even a day into fatherhood and he's already having to diffuse an argument. 

"Well I'm ending it." He tells them. "Kenna, apologize to your sister." 

"But she-" She starts. 

"Kenna!" Dean warns, giving her a look in the rearview and she immediately knows he means business. She sighs and looks at her twin who was grinning smugly. 

"I'm sorry for saying you have the upper body strength of a two year old." She says glumly. 

"Now, Aspen, apologize to Kenna." Dean says, making her smug grin disappear, reappearing on her twin's face. 

"I'm sorry for accusing you of cheating." She says, matching her sister's tone. 

"And?" Dean asks expectantly. Aspen huffs. 

"And for the comment about the arm." She adds, sinking into her seat. 

"It's alright." Kenna says. "At least I have both my legs."

"Dad!" Aspen exclaims, shooting up in her seat. 

"Alright, that's it." Dean says. "For the rest of the ride, you two are not to talk to each other. Do you understand?" 

"Yes, dad." They say in unison. 

"Good." He states with a nod. "Now, Kenna, apologize to Aspen. Again." 

"But you said-" she starts but one look from Dean shuts her up. 

"I'm sorry, Aspen." She says. 

"Good. Now neither of you talk to each other." He says. Sam just sits in his seat, impressed at his older brother, who already seems to have his dad look and voice down. "There's still one thing that's bothering me." He says after a while and the twins share a confused look. They haven't done anything else, have they?

"Yeah?" Sam asks, his voice portraying the same confusion the twins felt.

"Yeah, the night that I bit it. Or... got bit." Dean begins, chuckling at his own joke. "How'd you make it out? I thought Lilith was going to kill you."
