Authors Note: Sorry I’ve been absent, I’ve had training courses, birthdays, sport and just family chaos. Enjoy, My Lovelies, xx.
Y/N rolled over in bed, her face wet from the constant flow of tears. Nothing she did stopped them.
‘He’s gone, Dean’s gone.’
Y/N stared at Sam blankly like he was talking a foreign language.
‘Did you just say gone?’
Sam nodded and waited for the explosion. Y/N and Dean were complicated to say the least. Both wanted to date, but they both refused to do it. Both too scared of letting go, of loosing the other in a hunt, the pain associated with the loss, of becoming dependant. Not that it stopped them. All that still happened, in spite of their being no relationship of any kind other than close friends. They did everything together, expect kiss and have sex. Dean took her out for dinner every Valentines Day, if he was out and saw something she would like he’d get it and vica versa. They were unofficially together. To the outside world they were madly in love, to each other they were madly in love, but together it was platonic and just friends.
‘Sure Sammy, he just got up and walked away,’ she mumbled, rolling back over.
‘I’m serious, Y/N,’ Sam grabbed her hand and yanked her out of bed and down the hall.
Y/N stood in the doorway of Dean’s room looking at her bed.
‘I don’t know. He was here, now he’s gone.’
‘Where the hell did you put him, Sam?!’ Y/N screamed, becoming hysterical.
‘Y/N, I swear I don’t know where he is,’ Sam said gently.
He watched as she collapsed, and he dropped with her wrapping her in a hug and kissing the top of her head.
‘We’ll find him, I swear.’
Over the next few months the two worked tirelessly at research and following leads. It was then that they got word Dean was a demon and where to find him.
They arrived at the bar and Sam made Y/N wait outside, they both knew if Demon!Dean hurt her then Dean would never forgive himself.
Sam went in and Dean came out alone. Y/N watched as he beat up and went to kill person after person.
‘Dean!’ Y/N screamed running towards him. ‘Dean, stop. Please.’
The demon froze and turned to face her.
‘Please don’t do this, this isn’t you.’
The black eyes flickered and the emerald green iris’s came back.
‘Hey, Sweetheart. It’s been a while.’
‘You look good, really, really good,’ Dean commented, licking his lips he eyed her off.
‘I try,’ she smiled, sadly.
The tone, the words, the looks, this wasn’t Dean, but Y/N knew she just needed to keep him talking while Sam did whatever he needed to do to get him in the car.
Dean walked up to her and slipped his arms around her waist, pulling her flush against him. He felt her stiffen slightly, but he ignored it. Every part of him wanted her, needed her. Something about her sated the desire he had to kill everyone in a two block radius.
‘God I missed you,’ Dean mumbled. ‘More than I realised.’
He thought about his time away with Crowley, the people he had killed or put in hospital. How it made him feel. If he had of know being here with her would have made him feel better, he would have stayed at the bunker.
‘I missed you too, Dean. Please tell me you will come home?’
Dean looked down and looked into her eyes, his own eyes flicking black and then green again. He felt her flinch at the change and his heart sunk.
‘I’m not going to hurt you, Y/N. I never could. Demon or not.’
She looked at him through her eyelashes and nodded. Dean watched as she bit her lip while she considered her options. It became too much, he pushed her up against the wall and kissed her roughly.
‘Sweetheart, as long as your mine, I’ll follow you anywhere,’ Dean mumbled into her neck as his hand pushed up her top.
Y/N stood unsure of what to do. Sam came out and gave her a funny look, before realising it was all Dean.
‘Can I have you when we get there? Cos against a dirty wall isn’t my style.’
‘Let me help you first and you can have me however you want,’ she smiled seductively.
Dean moaned and pushed his face into her cleavage.
‘We need to go now,’ Y/N told him quietly.
Sam handed Y/N the cuffs and she looked at Dean.
‘Sweetheart, as long as your riding me while I’m chained I’m good with anything.’
Dean held out his hands, and watched as Y/N handcuffed him. He slid his hands over her head and pulled her in, kissing her again.
They got back to the bunker and Y/N helped Sam get Dean into the chair and devil’s trap.
‘Am I getting a lap dance for my cooperation?’ he asked seductively, running his eyes over her.
‘Once we make you feel better.’
‘Baby, having you touch me will make me feel better.’
Y/N smiled at him, she went to walk over to him when Sam put a hand on her elbow, stopping her.
Dean’s eyes turned black instantly.
‘I wouldn’t be doing that, Sammy. Do not keep her away from me.’
‘It’s for her safety, Dean. You know that. You’ll hate yourself if anything happens to her.’
Demon!Dean’s eyes only appeared to get darker.
‘I’d kill every damn person on this planet, before I even consider hurting her. Come here, Sweetheart,’ Dean growled.
The Demon needed her, his whole body ached for her. The desire to kill, the need to harm all coming back. He didn’t want it. He wanted her. He wanted to feel her, taste her, hear her moan.
He watched the pain in her eyes, as she looked at him. Before looking at Sam. Dean watched as Sam squeezed her arm gently. He wasn’t liking the way the guy looked at her, the way he touched her. She wasn’t his to touch. She was Dean’s. No one but him was allowed to touch her.
‘You should leave, Y/N,’ Sam said quietly.
Dean watched the tears form in her eyes.
‘Give us a minute first,’ she said quietly.
Sam nodded and went to get the gear.
‘Dean,’ she said quietly, walking over to him and squatting down in front of him, resting her hands on his legs. ‘I know you’re still in there. You have to be.’
‘I’m still him, just less likely to die.’
‘Your chances are still the same. Given his death rate, you haven’t got long.’
Dean grinned at her. ‘Then we should use that time wisely. How about you undo these chains and we go for it on the floor?’
‘I can make it more than tempting.’
‘I’m sure you can, I have no doubt in that,’ she smiled, sadly.
She used his legs to push herself up to a standing position and leant down, kissing his head. Dean leant into her kiss, her lips on him only turned him on more, made his desire stronger.
She leant down, putting her lips close to Demon!Dean’s ear and spoke quietly, her breathy whispers enough to send a shiver down his spine, in a good way. What he wouldn’t have given to have his hands free and to be able to pull her into his lap.
‘I love you Dean, I need you to fight this. To come back to me.’
She placed a soft kiss on his jaw and turned to walk over to Sam.
He looked down at her sadly, he knew she was struggling.
Y/N looked over at Dean, and watched as he licked his lips and looked at her. It was killing her to see him like this, to know that he was in there somewhere and that this demon thing was doing everything they had both wanted to do for so long.
‘Y/N,’ Sam said quietly, he put his hand on her back and led her out the room.
The two listened as Dean started yelling for her to come back, not to leave. Sam walked back in and looked at the demonic version of his brother.
‘I warned you, Sammy. I told you not to take her away from me,’ Dean hissed. ‘And while I’m going, touch her again or even look at her and I’ll kill you. She’s mine. You hear that. Mine! And you had better go bring her back in here. Go-,’ his threats were cut off by screams as Sam injected him with the first dose of blood. Y/N sat on the other side of the door sobbing as she listened to Dean’s screams. Fighting back every urge she had to run in there and stop Sam from hurting him. She heard movement coming towards the door and she stood up, catching a glimpse of Dean as Sam came out.
He held her eyes the whole time until the door closed. She looked up at Sam and couldn’t take it anymore. The tears started falling and Sam wrapped her into a hug and tried to comfort her.
As the treatment continued, Sam refused to let Y/N in there. This demon version of Dean was obsessed to say the least, he screamed for her constantly, he threatened Sam and Cas if they didn’t let her come in. He blamed them for keeping her away.
Y/N was fast asleep in bed when she felt someone run their hands up her legs. She froze, and slowly opened her eyes, preparing to attack.
‘Hey, Sweetheart,’ he murmured huskily into her neck.
‘What are you doing here?’
‘I’m fixed, I guess. Just got up and walked on out.’
‘Baby, stop talking. We can do that later,’ Dean smiled, kissing her.
‘I just want to know what’s going on,’ she tried.
This wasn’t right, something wasn’t right. Her body screamed for him to continue. She had wanted this for so long, but her mind and heart screamed run.
‘Baby, I’ll be back in a minute,’ she said calmly, going to sit up.
Dean pushed her back down on the bed and held her there.
‘Where exactly are you going, Sweetheart?’
‘I need to ask Sam something and then I’ll be right back and we can finish this off,’ she smiled.
‘No! You’re mine not his, you don’t need to ask him anything,’ Dean growled. ‘You’re my girl. Mine!’
Dean looked at the woman he’d pinned down, the one that was once again his brother was trying to keep from him. He was going to find Sam in a minute and kill him. Just as soon as he finally got to be with her.
‘I’m yours Dean, don’t doubt that. I just need to make sure that Sam finished his treatments, that’s all.’
Dean pushed his hand behind her head and yanked her up so she was sitting facing him. He kissed her roughly and looked at her.
‘I don’t want the treatments, Y/N. I like the disease.’
He watched as fear and panic crossed her face. This made him mad, she shouldn’t fear him. He’d never hurt her.
‘I’m stronger, there’s no regret, no guilt and I have you. You’re mine. I was too weak for that before. Too weak to handle you.’
‘No, you weren’t. We were too strong, too stubborn. Dean, we were so scared that the other would get hurt, of the pain if we lost one another. We did everything but have a relationship.’
‘We have that now, so it’s better. Trust me, Sweetheart, I can take care of you in everyway. In ways you never dreamed of.’
He ran his hand over her body, letting his fingers roam.
‘Dean, please,’ she begged. ‘Let me talk to Sam. You said you trusted me, do it. Please.’
Dean ignored her and Y/N felt tears in her eyes. She was running out of options. She didn’t want to fight him. She couldn’t.
‘I’m sorry,’ she whispered.
Dean stopped and looked at her.
Dean’s eyes flicked black as the anger washed over him.
‘You’re mine! Not his!’ he screamed, hitting her.
Y/N lay there frozen, holding her face, she knew what the demon was like. How many people he had killed just because. She also knew her Dean was under it and what he was like. She had avoided upsetting him for that reason. Her Dean wouldn’t hurt her, he wouldn’t want to and it would kill him knowing that the demon was.
The demon looked at her and stopped before his fist came down a second time.
‘I’m sorry, Baby. I shouldn’t have.’
He leant down and kissed her again, making it better. Her face was damaged and that made him mad. Her beauty marked. While it would heal, he would be reminded of it until it did. This was Sam’s fault. Sam was the one that made him do it. That made her call for him. The way he controls her was ruining everything. It needed to stop.
The door burst open and Sam took in the scene.
‘Dean, get off her,’ he yelled, raising a gun.
‘Really, Sammy, you think that will work?’
Dean looked down at Y/N who now had tears in her eyes and kissed her again.
‘Baby, I’ll be back in a minute. We can finish then. I’m going to go show Sammy here why he should have stayed away from my girl.’
Sam looked at Y/N and then Dean who was climbing off her and ran. He felt bad leaving her behind but he had a feeling she wasn’t in any danger.
Y/N flew out of bed and chased after the two men, trying to come up with a way to get Dean. She called for Cas over and over, hoping he could help. She even considered calling Crowley, but there wasn’t much he could do.
She ran into the electronics room, and put the bunker into lock down. At the very least, hopefully he couldn’t escape. She ran through the halls looking for the two men, eventually finding Dean beating Sam up. She ran up and pushed him off of him, screaming for him to stop.
Dean shifted her out the way so she didn’t get hurt and grabbed the hammer, preparing to swing it at Sam. Y/N threw herself in between the two men.
The hammer smashed into the tiles, the ceramic shattering and shards of it hitting her cutting her face.
‘Get out of the way, Y/N!’ Dean growled.
The demon’s stance softening just slightly when he saw the blood starting to run down her head. His anger quickly coming back with force towards his brother. She would never have been hurt if he hadn’t of been here.
‘Baby, move!’ the Demon demanded.
‘Dean, please. Stop,’ she cried.
Dean went to grab her arm, when a pair of arms wrapped around him.
‘Enough, Dean. It’s over,’ Cas growled in his ear.
Dean watched as Y/N turned and dropped to help Sam. He continued to fight and try and break free of the angel’s grasp but failed.
‘Dean,’ Y/N said softly. ‘No more fighting.’
He stopped struggling and just looked at her. She stood up, tears running down her face.
‘I’ll stay with you, just stop fighting,’ she said quietly.
Dean’s eyes flashed black and he looked at Sam with nothing but hatred.
‘No Sam, not this time. If it helps, I’ll stay.’
She held out her hand for Dean to take and walked with him into the dungeon where Sam and Cas tied him back up.
They continued with the treatment and Dean didn’t move, didn’t falter, didn’t even speak. He just spent the whole time watching her. He screamed as the pain ripped through him, and felt his grip on her hand tighten. He watched as tears rolled down her cheeks, with each injection.
She sat on the floor next to him, still holding his hand and watching as he screamed with each injection, before finally passing out. She went to remove her hand, but his grip only tightened.
She too eventually fell asleep listening as Cas and Sam talked quietly. She stirred as water hit her face. She sat up and looked at Dean.
Dean watched as Y/N’s eyes looked right at him.
‘You’re back?’ she whispered.
He nodded and watched as she jumped up and undone his bindings, before hugging him. Dean held her tight and memories and guilt washed through him, what he did, what he wanted to do. He pulled back and moved away from her.
Y/N let him do what he needed and stood back quietly while the men talked. Dean eventually leaving to go to this room and Sam off to do research.
She knocked on the door and let herself in.
‘Hey,’ she said quietly, watching as Dean put some photo’s away.
‘Dean, it wasn’t you. You don’t have to apologise.’
‘The things I did, wanted to do, tried to do…’
‘Things you didn’t do,’ she added, she walked over and sat next to him on the bed.
Dean, touched her temple gently, the butterfly strips holding the cut closed.
Y/N reached over and took his hand.
‘I thought I lost you. That you’d…’ she struggled to get the words out.
Dean watched as tears rolled down her cheek.
‘It’s so stupid we spent all this time fighting how we feel because it was supposed to stop the pain. It never did. It made it worse. There is so much I should have said. So much we should have done.’
Dean looked down at her and knew she was right. He’d known for a while. His biggest regret was not telling her before going in to fight Metatron. But he also knew he wasn’t safe to be around, he could feel it. The demon, the call of the mark. And while right now it seemed to have eased, he knew it was only a matter of time until he lost control.
Funnily enough, he knew the demon side of him wouldn’t touch her, not like that that. He’d do everything else. But he wouldn’t kill her. The mark though, that was what truly scared him.
He pushed his hand into her hair and and pulled her in, kissing her, he should have done it years ago. He felt his tears rolling down his face. God, he loved this woman more than life. More than anything. She tasted every bit as good as he expected, sweeter even. His kiss grew more intense, more desperate and he forced himself to stop.
‘I love you,’ he said huskily.
He kissed her again softly and closed his eyes.
‘I want you to get your gear and get out.’
‘You heard. I need you gone, Y/N.’
‘No. There can’t be an us. Ever. And I can’t have you here. Not anymore.’
He watched as her entire world fell apart, as she tried to protest, as she begged for him not to do this. But he didn’t listen. For her own safety she had to go.
‘Pack up and leave. You have an hour or I’ll make you leave with nothing.’
‘I’m sorry, Sweetheart, but it’s what’s best for you.’
He got up and walked out leaving her there on his bed crying. Y/N walked out into the library 45 minutes later and found her bags packed and dumped on the floor, Dean no where in sight.
‘I’m sorry, Y/N,’ Sam said quietly.
‘You’re supporting this?’
‘Apparently he needs to know you’re safe and this is the the best way.’
‘It’s bullshit,’ she snapped.
‘Yeah, I can’t argue that. I’ll talk to him, see what I can do. Just give him time. He’s pretty cut up about what happened, about hurting you, and what he did.’
‘He tried to kill you,’ she pointed out.
Sam gave her a sad smile and helped her pick up her bags.
Dean sat against the wall, bottle of whiskey in hand, listening as Y/N continued to protest his decision. He wiped his hand over his face, trying to wipe away the tears. He didn’t want her to go. He didn’t want her anywhere but right beside him. But he wanted her safe and he couldn’t guarantee that when he was around.
He listened as her car drove out of the garage and the threw the bottle of alcohol against the wall as he broke down.
He just hoped that one day, she would forgive. That one day if this all ended, she’d still love him.
