The Familia's Family~ Supernatural Fanfic

Chapter 8

When I get back to the kitchen, I find Skylar gripping onto the counter. I quickly unfold the blanket I hold and place it over her shoulders. She looks to me, before gripping the blanket. I give her a weak smile, before declaring "I'll make breakfast."

When I sit her at the table, I sit across from her and ask "What do you want for breakfast?"

She shrugs, before declaring "It doesn't matter."

I furrow my brow and insist "You get to choose."

She furrows her brow and looks down at the table, before asking "You know what I haven't had in awhile?" She looks up at me and smirks "Blueberry waffles."

I furrow my brow and declare "Blueberry waffles, coming right up."

When I stand to make the waffles, she sits with her back to me. When I'm about to add the blueberries to the mix, she states "You have to muddle the berries."

I hum, before turning around to grab a bowl. When I turn back, she's got the mortal and pestle.

As she grinds the berries, I stand next to her and watch. She stops after a moment and furrows her brow "My personal space bubble is bigger than most."

I give a confused look and she gives me a weak smile. After a moment, I take a step back and ask "What are Dean and Cas arguing about?"

She furrows her brow and states "You know." She gives me a weak smile "You've always known."

She furrows her brow and places the pestle down "I'll be back. I've got to talk to Cas."

When she walks out of the room, I furrow my brow and continue with the waffles.

About three minutes later, Dean walks in and turns to the coffee maker. I furrow my brow and state "I haven't made any, yet."

Dean sighs, before pulling out the funnel and dumping the grounds. As he waits for the pot to coffee, he doesn't move from the spot he stands at, back turned.

About two minutes later, I state "Skylar and I are making waffles, if you want some."

He hums and I state "Dean-"

"Sam!" He interrupts, before looking to me tiredly "Not now."

I nod, before Skylar walks in, followed by Cas, who calls after her "You had no right-"

She turns to him and states "I can smell how your emotions and, believe it or not, you have a soul! There's a reason why you woke up in the empty! You don't belong there!"

Cas sets his jaw and she rests her hand on Cas's chest "I afforded what I had, my two masters that belong in purgatory, to help the empty pass eternity."

Cas furrows his brow and I ask "What are you talking about?"

Skylar steps back and states "Cas made a deal with the empty. The empty takes him when he finally feels happiness."

Dean cocks an eyebrow to him "You did what?"

Cas looks to Dean and states "I did it to save Jack's life, Dean."

Dean furrows his brow and asks "So, you're a deadman?"

"No, no he's not." Skylar insists, before declaring "I made a deal with the empty, and with death, to stall them both."

I furrow my brow and ask "How'd you do that?"

She furrows her brow and states "It's not the consciousness that drives the empty up the walks. It's the nothingness that's maddening."
