[b]MIKA CHAMBERS[/b] When Esme accepted her apology, Mika inwardly sighed with relief. She knew she would still need to have that chat with Esme but she wanted to do it when they were all a lot more awake and refreshed, and in private. The woman deserved it, even if there was still that same twinge of dislike toward her for letting Dean do what he did. Yet it was no less than how she felt about Dean and what she said to him. She would need time to fully accept their history, even if she was thankful for her keeping him alive. She also thought that yet again, Nat was showing her what a better person she was as she offered to take Esme to the motel, even if Esme turned round and said she didn't require said offer. Nat in her eyes, was still young but such an amazing woman considering her own history. She also noticed out the corner of her eye how Dean gave his 'i'm proud of you' smile when she apologised to everyone and that gave her a lot more hope that they could really get over this blip easier than they may have done in the past. When Dean looked at her and agreed they should head back up and get him cleaned up before going to bed, she nodded with a soft smile and light chuckle at him calling her his nurse. She grabbed his arm and started to turn and head back to the stairs when Bobby's voice made her pause and look back at him over her shoulder, "I will and I know" she replied to him, noting how he used her nickname once again. As she and Dean reached the stairs again, she saw Esme wlaking to the front door and leaving with a goodbye. Getting herself and Dean upstairs, she took him straight to the bathroom, gesturing for him to perch somewhere as she opened her bathroom cabinet and pulled down some painkillers and the first aid kit. She then filled the sink with some luke warm water so she could help him get the blood out of the back of his hair before making sure he really was alright. She also felt she should help with putting some cream on his black eye from her original punch which she was starting to regret doing, even if it was still justified. So with her decisions made, she helped where she could fixing him up, making sure she was thorough until she was satisified that his head wouldn't need stitches and it probably felt worse than it actually was. It took her a good few minutes, but she was done and chucked the bloody cloth away into her bin, glad that she always kept a decent stash of wash cloths. "You're good, now lets head to bed" she told him, stroking his cheek gently before pecking his lips and walking back to the bedroom with him. In the bedroom she got changed into her usual vest before climbing into bed, surprising herself that she really did want Dean with her and not elsewhere. For a long while she was convicned she would be telling him to go sleep in the basement or anywhere that was away from her, but he managed to win her back over just like he always did before he knew her better than anyone. But right now all she wanted was her Dean and sleep, in the hopes that during said sleep, she could just try and forget everything that happened. It took Mika merely seconds before she fell asleep once in bed laying on her side and curling up into herself facing Dean. [b]SAM WINCHESTER[/b] Sam found himself smiling when Annabeth told him he didn't have to sleep down here with her but he just shook his head as if to shake away her suggestion. "Don't be silly, it's no problem sleeping down here with you Anna. I'll be fine, and besides, if I'm around in the house I can come to anyone's aid if it comes to it." he replied to her honestly. He really did think that if she didn't end up needing him, then someone else may do and he didn't want to find himself in a motel unable to help if that occurred. He got down onto the make shift bed and pulled his shirt off, but otherwise remained dressed. He let Annabeth get as comfortable as she could, taking her time to do so as he rested against the incredibly comfortable pillow, one arm underneath it. It didn't take him long to fall asleep for the night. [b]------[u]THE NEXT DAY[/u]------[/b] [b]NATALIA AND SAM WINCHESTER, MIKA CHAMBERS[/b] Nat woke up early on the couch with a yawn and stretch, turning onto her side and pulling the blanket tightly round her. She could tell it was relatively early still and she couldn't initially hear anyone else up so she figured she would take a moment for herself. She knew however she coiuldn't stay 'asleep' on the couch forever so she figured she would peel herself out of the blanket and sat upright. Sighing and yawning once again, she stood up and headed to the kitchen deciding to get the coffee brewed up for everyone and herself whilst she was awake. "pLease let everyone be okay this morning" she mumbled to herself sleepily, as she pulled down enough mugs for everyone, including Annabeth and Sam. Mika woke up with a groan of complaint at being awake already, refusing to open her eyes she stole the duvet to shroud herself in it, her hair just poking out the top on the pillow, whilst also being close to Dean. She had no idea if Dean was awake but she refused to open her eyes and find out. WHilst the girls woke up above him, Sam woke up in the vault with Annabeth, his arm having draped round her during the night, his other arm by his side. He looked down at Annabeth and wondered if she was awake, "Morning" he said softly, lifting his hand up from his waist and stroked his hair, kissing the top of her head.
