It made perfect logical sense. Lie through their teeth, pray he never found out, or went home, and then just explain when they were ready to. The main issue with that though, was that the truth was all around them. The journal, the past, all the things Dean had done and said in the past were all in those damn pages, and Ruby knew it. Why Dean had opted to leave himself in the dark was his own business. It did sort of go a bit against what she thought Dean would do, but then again the last time he'd been there he locked away all the memories of Hell and then some.
Maybe it was better this way, but Ruby was being selfish. It was a pattern really, and she fell into it all the time. Things were better for her if she did this. If Dean died, he'd go to Hell, and then she'd come back and Sam would need her. It was selfish of her. It was probably wrong, well there was no probably about it. Things were good for them. Dean and her went out drinking, Sam and him were in the midst of a prank war, and Sam was actually somewhere close to being the happiest he'd been in a while.
Yet here she was leaning against the wall across the hall from his door, about to walk over there and possibly ruin it all. Just so she could feel better about it all, so that the truth was out there and not stuck waiting to slip out. It was funny, because that guy was telling her she was dealing in sex and lust to feel better, and if she could just use that to make Dean okay with her being a demon she still wouldn't do it. Using sex and lust was easy, but the truth and facing reality was difficult.
The truth though, was that it was so that she'd feel better and she wouldn't feel like the friendship they had was based on the fact that he didn't know. Moving forward she knocked on his door, wondering if she'd end up spending another two weeks in the black, or if she was about to ruin the most healthy Dean and Sam's relationship has been in at last three years.
