Sam's eyebrows rose as there was a knock on the motel room door. Dean went to answer it, only to find...
"Hey! Bobby!" Dean's face lit up, stepping back to let the older man in.
"Heya boys," Bobby's smile was wider than Dean's as Sam stood up to greet him.
"What brings you all the way out here?" Sam asked, surprised to see him.
"I came to see that book you boys got actually," Bobby admitted, not one to dance around the subject, "I trust you still have it in your posession."
"Yeah it's in the car. I'll get it," Dean offered, walking out to fetch it from the trunk.
"I haven't really had a chance to look it over yet, we've had a lot going on," Sam looked a little sheepish.
"That's ok, it's nothing to rush into," Bobby said pointedly.
Faith and Angel
Faith rounded the corner, tucking a stake back into the back of her pants.
"I'm telling you Angel, it's getting hairy out there," she said, balancing the phone between her ear and her shoulder.
"Something's going on," Angel agreed. "I've got my people on it."
"The fate of the world is in good hands then. See ya."
"Bye, Faith."
She flipped her phone shut as she came to the door of the motel room, and opened it, barely paying attention to what was going on in the room.
Dean, Bobby & Sam
Dean was just handing Bobby the book when the door opened again.
"Who's this lovely lady?" Bobby asked, quickly taking off his trucker cap to make her aquaintance.
"Bobby, this Faith," Sam introduced them.
Faith
"Oh, so this is Bobby," Faith said, smiling at the older man.
"If I'd known he was this young and cute, I would've requested a meeting sooner."
Bobby, Dean & Sam
"Little lady, you're a diamond in the rough," Bobby took her hand and kissed it before replacing his trucker cap to his head.
Dean took a moment to muse over Faith and Bobby hooking up. Awkward...
"So did you want the book for a particular reason? I mean you can take it with you if you want and we can just swing by later," Sam offered.
"I might take you up on that," Bobby looked across at him, "I haven't had the chance to study it as extensively as I'd like."
Faith
"Another cute bookworm, hmm?" Faith mused, starting to empty her pockets of the weapons she'd taken out patrolling.
"Is that the book from Cougarfest 2006?"
Bobby, Dean & Sam
"From what?" Bobby raised an eyebrow.
Dean snapped his fingers, "that's the one."
"Nevermind them," Sam shrugged them off as Bobby opened the book.
Faith
Faith sat down on the bed and stretched her arms up, joints cracking softly. She winced slightly, feeling a small cut on the side of her hip.
"Hmm."
Bobby, Sam & Dean
"Isn't Faith your girl?" Bobby looked up at Sam.
"Uh..."
"What makes you ask?" Dean asked curiously.
Bobby looked between them.
"Because the sexual tension in this room is astounding," he blurted.
"Oh Bobby," Dean cringed.
"What? I was doing the deed long before you were, boy."
Sam just laughed.
Faith
Faith grinned.
"I like him," she said, looking at Bobby. "If I wasn't with Sam, handsome, I'd be after you like a flash."
Bobby, Dean & Sam
"Is it getting hot in here?" Bobby looked toward Dean curiously.
Dean just glared back at him as Sam chuckled.
"Right, back to work then," Bobby's eyebrows rose, "so you haven't looked this over at all?"
"Haven't had time," Sam shook his head.
"Yeah being kidnapped tends to take up a lot of that lately," Dean spoke up.
Faith
"Yeah," Faith agreed. "There's been way too much kidnapping as of late."
She paused.
"But, on a brighter note, we have learned how long it takes a sedative to wear off. And we still have full functionality of our bodies."
Dean, Bobby & Sam
"Which is a good thing," Dean agreed, sitting back on his bed.
"What are they talking about?" Bobby looked up at Sam.
"Don't worry about it. We've just had a few tough cases of late," Sam reasoned.
"And you didnt think to call me in on them?"
"They were very short notice."
"How many of them?" Bobby demanded, "boys, you know when I say 'take care of yourselves' I kind of mean it?"
"Nothing we couldn't handle Bobby," Dean inssted.
"Apparently. But you said the same thing going after Lilith," Bobby pointed at him, "and look how that turned out. You went to Hell."
Faith
"He has a point," Faith said, glancing at Bobby.
"Sooner or later, something is going to be too big for you guys, and I'm not going to be able to save your asses."
Sam, Bobby & Dean
"Until we run into Lilith again, we should be fine," Sam assured.
"Yeah. And like you're gonna tell me when you do," Bobby rolled his eyes.
"You've made your point about this being your fight Bobby," Dean looked up at him seriously.
He nodded.
"Don't think we won't include you when the time comes."
"Well thankyou," Bobby said to Dean, "and finally."
Faith
"Yeah, I'll pretty much be off like a drunk girl's prom dress," Faith quipped.
She nodded and indicated her face.
"Too pretty to die. Too pretty for responsibility."
Dean, Sam & Bobby
"Gee, thanks," Dean scorned as Sam gave her an understanding look.
"Don't blame you love," Bobby said pointedly, "things can get petty hairy when it involves these two."
"Yeah cos Sam has too much," Dean quipped, then laughed at himself.
"I amuse me..."
Faith
"I have my own demonic apocalypses to worry about," Faith said, shrugging. "Plus, I'm about to star in my own prophecy, so that's fairly exciting."
She ran a hand through her hair.
"Well, guess you can never accuse us of being boring."
Bobby, Sam & Dean
"Damn right," Bobby agreed as Sam nodded.
"But who would want to be?" Dean asked, amused.
Sam gave him a look.
"Well, guess I should be heading back," Bobby announced, starting to head for the door.
"To South Dakota? This time of night?" Sam frowned.
"No ya idjit, booked into a motel a few blocks from here. I'll be hanging around the next few days - working a job for Olivia - so if anything comes up, call me."
"Will do Bobby," Dean promised.
"And it was nice meeting you, Faith. You keep these boys in line for me," he nodded to her.
Faith
"Nice meeting you too, handsome."
Faith smiled warmly at him.
"Oh, I will. One step out of line and punches will be thrown. Promise."
Bobby, Sam & Dean
"Keep up the good work," Bobby nodded, Sam patting him on the bck as he stepped out.
"Bye Bobby," he smiled.
"Yeah see ya!" Dean called after him, before laying back on the bed and unwrapping the take out that had probably gone cold by now.
Sam closed the door and turned back to Faith.
"So that was Bobby," he smiled.
Faith
"Indeed," Faith said, tucking her hair behind her ears. "He's cool."
She reached out and tugged on the edge of Sam's shirt.
Sam & Dean
Sam let Faith pull him, sitting down on the bed beside her.
"Closest thing to a father we've got, and we'll probably ever have," Dean added, stuffing his face with Chinese food.
Faith
Faith turned to face Sam, so that her front met his side and she slid her legs over onto his lap.
"Must be nice."
