[h3] Dean Winchester [/h3]

Dean glanced over to Mika as she sat on the bed and began rubbing her feet.  Her words caused him to wince in a silent apology.  He sighed, and stepped over to the bed, kneeling down onto his knees.  He reached his hands out, not saying anything, and picked her foot up, deeply massaging her foot as he looked up at her face with a sigh, “I’m sorry.  He just…He acts like he can just wiggle in and sweep you away because of a mistake, and it’s a mistake that happened YESTERDAY.”

He frowned, and turned his eyes from her face, down to her foot as he massaged it, gritting his teeth.  He could barely stand to let the mental image of Cason and Mika together into his mind, but it weaseled in, no matter how hard he tried to push it away.  He still wasn’t convinced that Cason had been under any influence when he either didn’t fight back, or fully took advantage of Mika’s trance under Cupid.  He glanced up at her again, “I’m trying.  I didn’t hurt your arm, did I?  I didn’t mean to lose my cool.”

It wasn’t in Deans nature for him to apologize for being possessive.  In his mind, it was his way of showing how much he loved her, in the past, but he had also hurt her with his possessiveness in the past.  The thought of leaving bruises on her skin, because of his own paranoia made his stomach turn as he scanned her face.

[h3] Annabeth and Cason [/h3]

Cason winced as Sam stepped up and wrapped an arm around Anna’s waist, his nose snarling in a bit of disgust at how quickly Sam had managed to wiggle his way back into Anna’s head.  Cason had worked hard to keep them apart, and after only a few days, they were close enough for Sam to show possessiveness.  He shook his shoulders slightly, staring at Sam quizzically, “There’s a graveyard, not far from the High School, and in the center of the graveyard, there’s a chapel.  The seal will be broken in the chapel.  From what I’ve heard, there’s going to be a party tonight, you know…Halloween and all that.  I figure you might want to get over there.”

Anna frowned and she tilted her head, “Why would kids at a party have anything to do with any of this?  I thought we were dealing with witches and demons and stuff.”

“Oh, you are, but Samhain needs blood.  He needs sacrifice.  What better way to get those sacrifices than idiot kids drunk and out of their mind?  I could use a date to the party.”, he chuckled, shrugging his shoulders as he scanned between Natalia and Anna’s faces.  Anna snarled her nose, “What?  Two weeks ago, we were eating sushi and sleeping in the same bed, and now you can’t even hang out with me at a Halloween party?”

“That was before I found out you’re a demon…and that you had been lying to me the entire time we’ve been together.”, Anna snapped, causing Cason to actually wince, pulling his bottom lip between his teeth, “So, that changes things, you know?  I’ve had my fill of Angels and Demons, at this point.”

“Well.  I just wanted to let you know.  I’m mostly here to bring Esme a present.”, he muttered, petting Sarah’s back.  Anna turned her eyes down to scan over the invisible hound and she pulled herself a bit closer to Sam’s side.

[h3] Duke [/h3]

Duke laughed softly at Esme’s request for cheesecake.  It was a blast from the past, instantly.  Dean’s obsession with pie, any time he went on supply runs, were closely rivaled by Esme’s requests for cheesecake.  Though, she was right.  The odds of finding cheesecake around a small dusty town were slim.  He thought about it for a moment, and then raised his eyebrows, glancing down at her hand as she squeezed his, “Well.  I’ll order us a pizza, and then as soon as you’re up and movin’ around, I’ll take you out for cheesecake.  I think a tiny diner with cute little waitresses feeding you sweets sounds like a pretty good catch up spot.”

He flashed his dazzling smile, and scooted further onto the bed beside her, pulling the blankets over his own body.  Even still wearing a towel, he felt absolutely relieved to be in a bed, even just resting before he ordered a pizza.  He scanned over her face for a moment, taking in her smile, and the feeling of her hand in his.  

Surprising himself, Duke leaned in, bringing his free hand up to brush across her cheek as gently as he could.  He hesitantly leaned in further, staring down at her lips, and gently pressed his lips to hers.  He brought his hand from her cheek, to push her hair behind her ear as he just moved his lips carefully against hers, something he had wanted to do from the day they met.
