Dean, age 13, his perspective

Flashback

"So, dad and I were working a case at a school. Apparently students have been killing others. Dad liked this case, I told him that there wasn't a case, I think he just wanted me to tour this school he wanted me to go to. Well, when we got to the school I saw a group of kids huddled up in a circle. Scratch that, not a group, a full circle, there was a looked like a seventh grade girl and an eighth grade boy. He was taunting her and she ended up breaking his nose. A couple hours later after meeting all of the teachers they were talking about schedules. I heard someone speaking Latin,"
"Slow down boy!"

"Sorry Bobby." I was telling Bobby at what happened at the school we toured. "So, I told dad I was going to the bathroom because of the 'pie' I are before." Pie was our code word for 'I am going to check something out' "so, I walked down the hall and saw the girl. I picked the lock and saw her exorcising a demon. I stopped in my tracks, surprised she knew the words by heart. She stopped for a minute and look at me. I kind of gave her the 'hurry up' look and she continued. As soon as she finished she helped the boy from the fight and I bolted. I could hear footsteps from behind me. Dad and I left and that was it"

"We need to kill her. She knows who you are truly." Bobby said

"No! Are you crazy?" Just then Sammy came in bouncing up and down. "Let's find her!"

"You heard?"

"Can we find her! Please! Please!"

"No, I am sorry, bud, we can't. " he started to cry.

"Hey, hey, don't cry, crying is for the weak." I said gently. "I promise you, Sam, we will find her one day. One day, I swear."

Flashback over

Dean present time

Memories flooding in of that day. My eyes started to water a little. I didn't want to show it but I was so happy that I didn't break my promise. That I actually found her, still as beautiful. She was the light of my life. I don't want to let that light get to anyone else because it can't. Because it's the brightest light to light up my life, it's so bright that no one else can have it because she is the light. I won't let her go like everyone else in my life that I let there light go. "Dean, hello?" Sam was snapping in front of my face. "Sorry, remember how I made that promise to you that we would find that girl, the one in the story that I was telling Bobby?"

"Dean, that was years ago it doesn't mat-"

"You know her, you have met her. And she is the most beautiful person I have ever met. The nicest and the funniest."

"Stella?"

"Yes. It's her, and god, I love her, I will do anything for her. God, what has gotten into me." Just then Stella came out from behind Sam "oh shit." I mumbled. "Hi, Dean. Is that how you really feel?"

"I hate to say it this early but yes."

"Oh, Dean Winchester has a soft spot."

"Guess so,"

"I am going to go, want to come with, I am going out to eat at Bennys?" Sam finally said after Stella and I look at each other for a long time. "Sure!" Stella finally said. I smiled and we left.
