[This bar isn't anywhere near Indiana. He's ... supposed to be heading to Indiana, but he's not there yet. He's not ready to be there yet. So he's sitting at the bar and having a beer and trying to pretend that the whole mess of is life isn't getting to him.

It's harder than it looks.

Another guy comes in and slides onto the stool a bit of a ways down from him, but other than that the bar was pretty much empty. Just the way he liked it.]

[kind of freaking out, but this other guy seems to at least have her best interest at heart. she holds onto his jacket with her free hand]

[hasperkynipples]

[the vamp eyes him for a moment, before letting go of her wrist. Dean gave him a thin smile, before glancing back at the girl as he started to pull her away]

Need a ride home, sweetheart?

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[she doesn't answer, but instead clings to him, burying her face in his chest as she cries]

[hasperkynipples]

[his face softens a bit, as he wraps his arm around her more and starts to ease her towards the door]

C'mon. I'll take you home.

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[the word "home" breaks her heart, but she nods]

Okay.

[hasperkynipples]

[he slowly takes them outside to the Impala, sliding her into the passenger seat, before making his way around to the trunk. He knows his machete is there under the false bottom, and he doesn't trust that vamp not to come out and try to reclaim his dinner.

And to his credit, he's not wrong. He picks up the knife and makes his way around to the driver's side when the thing suddenly has him by the throat, and is tossing him across the hood of the car.]

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[SCREAMING. All the screaming. She would get out of the car...but maybe it's better if she stays in.]

[hasperkynipples]

[it is better if she stays in. And Dean doesn't stay down long. He's up on his feet and ten minutes later, it's all over. The vamp's head is at his feet and he's ... covered in blood because that's how it works. It's annoying]

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[just staring with her hands over her mouth. what in the world has she stumbled into?]

[hasperkynipples]

[glances over at the window and the girl who was sitting there, and sighs. This ... was going to be hard to explain. But he starts to make his way back around to the driver's side anyway.]

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[there's a pause, because she is really freaked out, okay]

Please tell me I am that drunk. [meaning drunk enough to be seeing monsters and their heads being chopped off]

[hasperkynipples]

Oh, you might be. But that was very real.

[a pause, and he turns to face her again]

That was a vampire. And odds are, if I hadn't stepped in, he would have killed you.

[positiveoutcomesonly]

Oh my god.

[She might start crying again.]

[hasperkynipples]

Yeah, look -- I know this is a lot to take, but we're better off being not here when the rest of the nest finds him. Is there somewhere I can take you?

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[She nods and gives the address to the crappy apartment building where she lives.]

[hasperkynipples]

[nods, and starts driving in that direction, letting them fall into silence for a bit.]

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[after she calms down a little]

Thank you.

[hasperkynipples]

[glances over before nodding]

Don't mention it.

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[wipes at her face]

My mom was right. I should've stayed home.

[hasperkynipples]

[Dean ... can't really argue with that]

What's your name?

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[sniff]

Savannah.

[hasperkynipples]

Savannah, I'm Dean. Let's get you home.

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[SOB]

I can't go home! Not home home, not to my family. [Yes, this is the part where she just bears her soul to the guy who saved her from the monster while she cries some more.] I miss them so much, but I can't--

[More sobbing. Sorry, Dean, she is really emotional.]

[hasperkynipples]

Oh ... Okay, okay. Just ... breathe.

[why is this his life?]

Do you have somewhere where you're staying?

[positiveoutcomesonly]

[nods]

I'm sorry. I just--I'm a mess.
