Impala Dreams

"If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?" – 'Chasing Cars', Snow Patrol

Dean dozed fitfully; a miracle he was sleeping at all, given recent events. Even so, he still periodically checked his brother was near. Earlier, Sam had been too exhausted to get to the car unassisted. Now he was snoring gently, uncaring of his contorted fit into the back seat.

Dean's eyes flickered open as a female hand tenderly stroked his brow.

"Shh, sleep. You're both safe and I'll watch over you," purred a middle-aged woman, in a voice like velvet.

Dean trusted her instinctively and surrendered to sleep, her words echoing in his ears

"And I always will, my boys."
