Chapter Text
*Skylar’s POV*
“Ready to go, sweetheart?” I heard Dean ask behind me. It’s been about two weeks since I nearly died, and today was the day I got to go home. I turned around and smiled at this beautiful hunter that I am proud to call mine. “Yeah, I’m ready to get home and just be normal.” He smiled and hugged me gently, like he was scared that if he squeezes too hard, I would break.
The drive to the bunker was long, and I longed for my bed. Dean sensed my silence, and silently asked. “Are you okay, sweetheart?” I smiled at him, “Yeah, I guess so. I’m just nervous about going home.” He gave my hand a quick squeeze, and replied, “Don’t worry honey, it’s just Sammy, Cas and Gabe there. They are waiting for us.” I smirked, “An archangel, huh? What, do they suddenly care for humans?” He laughed, “You know Gabe has always seen you as a little sister.”
*Dean’s POV*
She noticeably stilled when we pulled up in front of the bunker. “Hey, don’t worry, everything’s gonna be okay”. She nodded and swallowed. I got out, and walked around to open her door for her. She rolled her eyes, and graciously accepted my hand to help her out. “Why thank you, kind sir.” She sarcastically said. “Anything for you, m’lady.” She laughed, and we walked hand in hand into the bunker. “Hello Dean, Skylar.” Cass greeted us with his usual gruff voice. Gabriel, on the other hand, swooped in next to Skylar, and held her in a tight bear hug. “I missed you too, Gabey.” She softly said and leaned against his shoulder. When Gabe released her, she looked at them quizzically. “Where’s the Squatch?” Gabe laughed, and led Skylar to the kitchen. I followed close behind. The sight that greeted us, had me bursting out in laughter. Sammy was busy cooking, and had a pink apron on. He turned to us, and smiled his usual dazzling smile. “Hey, Fireball, how are you?” Skylar visibly reddened Sam’s use of her code name. She hugged him. “Hey Squatch, what’s for dinner?” Sam guided her gently out of the kitchen. “It’s a surprise. Why don’t you get settled in, and dinner will be ready in ten?” She nodded, and took the hand I offered to her. “Let me show you to our room, m’lady.”
