Chapter 3

Dean and Sam looked around, hearing Cooper's footfalls. Sam turned back around and ran after her.

"Cooper?" He stopped dead in his tracks as he rounded the corner. Cooper was standing in the middle of the salvage yard, her hands clenched into fists at her sides.

Dean ran into Sam and looked up to see Cooper. A crash of thunder sounded and a flash of lightening lit up the yard. Sam thought he saw someone standing in front of Cooper when he blinked, they were gone.

She stood there trembling, dripping wet. She couldn't believe Kallie was right there in front of her.

"Why did you let me die Cooper?"

Cooper choked on a sob, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean too!"

Both boys looked at each other then back at Cooper "Who the hell is she talkin too man?" Dean asked. Sam shook his head, watching her.

"You could have saved me Coop" Kallie spat out. She walked towards her, making Cooper step back.

Dean reached into the back of his waistband and pulled out his .45. Sam drew his own gun and clicked off the safety.

Kallie stood toe to toe with Cooper and smirked down at her "You're weak Cooper, always were. You know it was me that always saved your sorry ass? You're pathetic!"

Cooper took in a breath "Your…your dead"

Dean's eyes widened. He looked around the empty lot and moved over to stand behind her, Sam stood right beside him.

Kallie gave a sickly sweet smile "So that just leaves one question…Is this really happening?"

Cooper set her jaw, this was real. She wasn't loosing it, Kallie was there right in front of her!

"You're not real"

Kallie nodded "Oh! I think you'll find I am, in the flesh" she gestured down her body with her hand.

Cooper clenched her eyes shut and swallowed hard. Another crack of thunder sounded out. Cooper opened her eyes to find the lot empty. - Kallie no where in site.

She turned around and heard the safety of the boys guns click back into place. She broke down, letting the tears fall. She couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Cooper?" Dean asked as he pulled her to him. "Let's get you inside." He walked passed Sam silently telling him to check the area.

The door closed behind Dean as he lead Cooper over to the kitchen table, he sat down next to her.

"You wanna tell me what happened?" he asked her.

She shook her head, he'd think she was crazy. She was even beginning to doubt herself.

She paled and placed her head in her hands "I'm loosin my mind Dean"

He reached out to take her hand "Talk to me Coop?"

She looked up at him with teary eyes "I…Kallie was out there" Dean furrowed his brows.

"See? I told you you'd think I was crazy"

"No! Wait! Cooper" Dean spoke up as he got up out of his chair. He walked over to her and stood in front of her. He placed his hands on her shoulders "Sweetheart, I was there, there was no one out there... just us"

She shook her head "No! That's not right! Kallie was there Dean," she protested. "She spoke to me"

Dean heard the door open and looked around to see Sam walk in. He shook his head letting him know that it was clear - nothing out there. Dean sighed and turned back to face Cooper.

"Calm down alright?" he asked her.

She glared up at him "Calm down, Dean? Calm down? I'm loosin my fuckin mind here!"

He ran his hand through her hair "Just calm down Coop, why don't you just go to bed and relax? We'll talk about this in the morning"

She nodded her head, still feeling numb from the shock.

Dean smiled at her "Good girl, you want me to see you up?"

She turned to him and nodded her head "Yeah If…If you don't mind?"

He shook his head and threw his arm around her, comforting her the best he could. This was usually Sam's job. He guided her over to the kitchen door and pulled it open.

She pushed her bedroom door open and walked inside. She reached into her pack for one of her hair ties and pulled it up in a messy bun. She grabbed a fresh changed of clothes, needing to get out of her wet ones and turned to see that Dean had turned down the bed.

She smiled over at him "I just…need to get changed"

She closed the bathroom door behind her and sighed. She quickly changed out of her wet clothes and placed them into the hamper, so that they were ready for her to wash in the morning.

Cooper leaned on the sink and sighed, looking up at her reflection. She didn't like what she saw. Her eyes were sunken into her head, she had black rings underneath them, like she hadn't slept for days. Her skin was that pale it looked almost transparent.

She turned around and pushed the door open, making sure to get the light and headed back to her bedroom.

She walked into see Dean waiting for her. She gave a small smile and climbed onto the bed, sliding underneath the sheets. Dean pulled them up over her and tucked her in. He leaned down to place a kiss to the top of her head.

"Night kiddo"

She nodded her head as she got comfy "Night, Dean"

He turned to leave but then told her "If you need anything Coop, you just call me alright?"

She looked over at him and nodded "Thanks, I will"

Dean sighed as he walked into the kitchen.

"What she say?" Sam asked as he got up from the table.

"She said Kallie was out there man" Dean walked over to lean on the counter and ran his hand through his hair.

"Dean! This is bad"

"I know right? What the hell we gonna do?"

Sam leaned on the back of one of the chairs "Did she say anything else?"

Dean shook his head "I didn't get that far, you saw her Sammy. I'll talk to her when she wakes up."

Sam turned to look out of the window, over the lot. There was nothing out there, he furrowed his brows and straightened. He had thought he'd seen someone out there when the lightening lit up the lot.

"Who's gonna tell Bobby?" He asked turning to face Dean.

Dean shook his head and raised his hands.

"Come on Dean you saw her, you talked to her"

"Yeah, Sammy and you checked the yard"

Sam hung his head, knowing he would have to tell Bobby.

When Cooper woke up she was scared and confused. She pulled the blanked around her and looked up at the ceiling, trying to figure everything out. She heard movement on the stairs and sat up. She heard the bathroom door close and pulled the blankets back and swung her legs over the bed.

She heard the toilet flush and walked over to the door, before opening it. She poked her head out, seeing Dean in the hallway. He stopped and walked up to her.

"You alright?" he asked as he leaned against her door frame.

"I…I can't sleep"

Dean's eyes travelled her body and he cursed himself, seeing her bare legs. "You…um want me to stay with you?"

She gave him a sheepish smile and nodded her head, opening her bedroom door for him to make his way inside. He checked that the coast was clear and then walked in, closing the door behind him. He kicked off his shoes and slid into the bed beside her.

Sam woke up and looked over at the alarm clock on the nightstand 6.42am. He groaned and stuffed his pillow over his face, knowing that he had to tell Bobby. He had decided to wait till Dean had spoken to her, see if he could get anymore information out of her. He swung his long legs out of bed and made his way over to his pack that lay on the chair in the corner of the room.

He grabbed some clean clothes and reached up to rub his tired eyes, before he made his way to the bathroom. He walked passed Dean's room to find the door still shut, must still be asleep. Sam walked into the bathroom - closing the door behind him.

Cooper woke up and rolled over. She gave a sigh not really feeling like getting up just yet. Her eyes flew open as she felt warm breath on her face, Dean. She smiled at his sleeping form it was the only time he ever looked at peace.

He had stayed with her all night? She turned over and yawned before stretching. 8.05am were the angry red numbers looking back at her from her alarm clock. She slowly sat up being as careful as she could not to wake Dean and slid out of bed.

She grabbed a pair of clean jeans out of her pack and pulled them on. Checking every so often to make sure Dean was still asleep. She tied her hair into a side braid before slipping into her army boots and made her way out into the hallway.

"Mornin" She heard Sam's voice behind her - making her jump.

She placed her hand over her heart and turned to face him, her cheeks a little flushed.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you"

She shook her head and smiled back at him "It's fine Sam, morning,"

"How you feelin?"

"I,,,I'm so confused Sam" she admitted to him.

His brows furrowed before he asked, "You wanna talk about it?"

She sighed and nodded her head "Alright,"
