Chapter Six: Expanding The Family
"About time you guys showed up." Ash greeted Dean and his family.
Dean chuckled, "Oh no it's all Sammy's fault today."
"Sure whatever you say dude. We all know how much you love your bed."
"Nah, today he was up bright and early. The kids decided to jump on him." Sam grinned.
"It's not like I could stay in bed after that kind of wake up." Dean looked pointedly at his kids, who giggled. "Anyways, since Sammy's been tired lately I let him sleep in."
"Tired? Dean not lettin' ya' get enough sleep?" Ash asked Sam as he let them inside.
Sam chuckled, "No, work has been busy lately and some of the guys have been sick. So I take over for them sometimes."
"Yeah Stace told me. She finally got the day off today."
Ash and Stacey's children ran straight to Sam and Dean for hugs then they ran off with their cousins to play. The adults watched them go then went to the living room to talk.
"So guys how was the visit to Bobby's?"
"It was great! Bobby took the kids to the zoo and the park. He also showed them off to a few neighbors. Of course he also spoiled them." Sam replied.
"The kids helped me with the Impala too." Dean added proudly.
Ash raised a brow, "Startin' young are we?"
Dean grinned, "They wanted to help and I wasn't gonna say no. They gotta know how to work on my baby."
"Sure…"
"Hey tourists!" Stacey walked up to the guys and gave them a big hug. "How have you been?"
Sam and Dean told Ash and Stacey all about their visit to Bobby's. They also got caught up with everything they missed in the week they were out of town. Stacey mentioned that Mike and Alex were looking upset and more quiet than usual, especially Alex. Sam vowed to talk to his friend, already knowing the problem.
The two couples spent the rest of the day together, even cooking dinner while they planned a date night. They figured out which babysitter was crazy enough to stay with all five children for a few hours.

*A few weeks later…*
"Hey Sammy I kinda brought ya' something while I was at the store…!" Dean called out from the kitchen. He put away the groceries while he waited for Sam.
Sam made his way down the stairs. He had felt a bit sick for the past few days, "Did you get me something for my stomach?" He asked hopefully.
"Not quite." Dean held up the box of pregnancy tests. "You haven't been feeling well lately so I uh thought you might wanna take a test…" He looked sheepish.
Sam nodded, "Maybe you have the right hunch." He gave Dean a small nervous smile before heading to their room.
Dean kept putting away the groceries until his curiosity got the better of him, "Screw this." He bolted up the stairs.
Sam had just stepped out of the bathroom as Dean walked into their room. The two stared at each other for a few moments until Dean opened his arms. Sam practically ran into his husband's embrace. Even though they were planning on adding to the family he still felt nervous.
Dean laughed nervously as he held Sam, "You would think that we're having our first kid."
Sam smiled into his brother's neck, "I know. I guess since we actually planned this one it's probably why we're like this."
"I'm guessing this is how you felt with Peanut." He planted a kiss on the top of his husband's head.
"Yeah that and nauseated, but I was also happy."
"So…How long are we supposed to wait for?" Dean wasn't one to be patient.
"I set the alarm, so not much longer." Sam assured.
The two jumped when Sam's alarm went off. Sam stared at Dean then broke off from the embrace and headed to the bathroom. He brought back the two tests to where Dean was sitting. He hadn't looked at what they said.
"Here, I want you to read it." Sam's hand trembled slightly as he handed the tests to Dean.
Dean's eyes widened as he grabbed them, "O-okay." He looked at the two little windows, but didn't say a word. His face maintained the same expression, not giving anything away.
The suspense made Sam even more nervous, "So? What does it say?"
Dean gave Sam a blinding smile, "You're pregnant Sammy! We're having a baby!"
Sam jumped on Dean, covering him in kisses, "We're having a baby De."
Dean laughed like if he was a little kid, "We did it Sammy." He didn't hesitate in kissing him back. "I love you so much. I can't wait to tell the kids."
"I love you too baby. Do you think we could keep the news to ourselves for a while?" Sam bit his lip. "You know till I'm a few more weeks along."
"You don't want the kids to know either?" Dean raised a brow.
"No we can tell them, but I wanna keep it between the four of us for now."
"Okay, we'll wait Sammy." Dean pulled Sam into his arms again. "No more heavy lifting for you, so be careful at work."
Sam rolled his eyes, "You're startin' the overprotectiveness early De. I think with two kids I should know what to do already." He looked amused.
"I know you do, but I also know how stubborn you can be."
Sam chuckled, "I'll be good Dean. Now let's get dinner started before we have to go pick up the kids from school." He reluctantly broke out of Dean's embrace.
"No, I'm gonna cook and you get to sit and relax." Dean followed Sam out of the room. "I was thinkin' of homemade pizza. We already have pizza dough."
"That sounds delicious. Make it with extra cheese. You know we have two little mice." Sam smiled as he thought of his children.
"Only the kids?" Dean smirked. "'Cause I also know of a six foot four mouse that loves cheese on everything especially when he's pregnant." His smirk grew at his brother's flush.
"Well you better start stocking up." He stuck his tongue out at Dean.
Dean chuckled, "Don't worry, I will."
Sam helped Dean get all the ingredients while his brother prepared his special Winchester pizza. Dean made Sam sit down after a while. Sam chose to sit on the counter next to his brother while he worked. He instinctively laid a hand on his flat stomach.
"I can't wait to tell the kids. They're gonna have someone new to play with, their cousins too." Sam looked excited.
Dean leaned over and gave him a kiss, "We gotta go see Ashley so she can tell us how far along you are and to see our little munchkin."
Sam nodded, "I'll make an appointment tomorrow." He licked his lips. "Uh I think we're gonna need a bigger car…"
Dean shook his head, "We are not getting a mini-van! We can fit three kids in our backseat just fine."
Sam rolled his eyes, "Whatever you say sir."
He got in between Sam's legs, "You know we can. I don't really see the need of another car."
Sam nodded to placate Dean, "Okay." He leaned down and gave him a passionate kiss. "Finish our pizza mister. We gotta head out in half an hour." He pushed him away playfully.
Dean laughed, "Yes mama bear." He dodged before Sam could hit him.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
"Daddies!" Adrianna ran to her parents, Tristan followed behind at a slower pace.
Dean caught his little girl in his arms, "Hey Jellybean! You're a happy little munchkin today." He bounced her.
"You're both here to pick us up." Adrianna smiled brightly.
Dean laughed, "Well we thought we might surprise ya'."
Tristan was cuddled up against Sam, "Yeah and we also have a surprise for you two when we get home."
Tristan and Adrianna squealed at hearing that, "Let's go! C'mon!"
Dean and Sam laughed at their children's reactions as they headed towards their car. Sam couldn't wait to see what they would say to having another little sibling.
"Okay you monkeys settle down." Sam said as he helped them into their seats.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
When the Winchesters arrived home Dean went straight to the kitchen to place the pizza in the oven. He could hear his kids asking his brother about their surprise. He laughed knowing they wouldn't stop until they were told. It was their common trait. Their dad hated it when they were stubborn as children. Even more when they were older, but it couldn't be helped. Dean shook himself out of the memories. He then went to save his brother once he made sure the pizza was baking.
"Settle down you two." Sam gestured for Tristan and Adrianna to sit down next to him on the couch. "We'll tell you once your dad joins us." Adrianna sat on Sam's lap while Tristan sat down in between his fathers.
"So I'm guessing you guys wanna know what's going on huh?" Dean smirked while he ruffled his son's hair.
"Yeah!"
Sam laughed, "Okay, okay."
"Tell us already Daddy. Please!"
"Well the surprise is…" Sam and Dean loved the two exasperated faces.
"Daddy!"
"In a few months you're gonna have a baby brother or sister!"
The two siblings looked at Sam's flat stomach, "What?" They were stunned.
Dean laughed, "Your Daddy's pregnant. He has a baby inside his tummy." He placed a loving hand on Sam's abdomen.
"Did you eat a baby, Daddy?" Adrianna looked at Sam innocently.
Tristan and Dean practically rolled on the floor with laughter. Sam glared at them, especially at his husband.
He wrapped his arms around his little girl, "No baby girl. I didn't eat a baby. I have a baby growing inside my tummy. Your father can explain it to you better. He did it for your brother when you were in my tummy."
"Ohh okay. So when is the baby coming?"
"When I go to the doctor we'll find out, but I still have a couple of months to go." Sam kissed the top of her head.
"So Peanut, what do you think of being a big brother again?" Dean asked his son once they stopped their laughter.
"I can't wait! We get someone new to play with."
"Yeah and Jellybean gets to be a big sister." Dean smiled at his little girl.
"Yay! We're gonna play tea party and dress up!" The youngest couldn't wait to have someone new to play with.
"Maybe, but remember that when the baby's born they're gonna be too little and won't be able to play yet." Sam warned his daughter.
"That sucks!" She pouted.
"Hey, we don't talk like that." Dean reprimanded. "Either way your brother said the same thing. The months will fly by, you'll see. Before you know it Baby will be here." He reassured his daughter.
"We're having a baby! We're having a baby!" Tristan and Adrianna sing-songed as they jumped off their parents laps and danced around the living room.
Sam and Dean smiled at the scene before them. They should've known they had nothing to worry about. They had great kids and would love the new baby just as much as they love each other.
Once the kids calmed down Sam and Dean told their children to keep the news of the baby to themselves for now. Tristan and Adrianna were confused, but promised their parents that they wouldn't tell anybody even their grandfather. It didn't stop their little dance.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
Later that night Adrianna sneaked into Tristan's room once she thought her parents were asleep. She stood next to him and tugged on his sleeve.
"Peanut." She tugged again. "Peanut wake up."
Tristan groaned as he woke, "Wh-what?"
"I can't sleep…" Adrianna looked down.
"Did you have a bad dream?"
The little girl shook her head, "No."
"Then what's wrong Jellybean? I'm sleepy."
"Can I sleep with you?" She gave her big brother the puppy eyes.
Tristan scooted over in the bed and lifted the sheet, "C'mon."
Adrianna didn't waste any time and jumped under the covers, "Thank you."
The older brother wrapped his arms around his sister, "Now are you going to tell me what's wrong?"
She sighed against his chest, "It's about the new baby."
"What about the baby? Are you scared of being a big sister?"
"Are Daddy and Daddy De gonna treat me different? Are they gonna stop playing with me?" Adrianna's eyes filled with tears.
"No Jellybean they won't change. I thought the same thing when you were in Daddy's tummy. They have to give the baby extra attention because they can't do anything for themselves, but they'll still play with you. Plus I'll play with you too and our cousins. So don't worry about it sis." He wiped the tears that had escaped.
"O-okay if you say so."
"I promise Jellybean, now let's go to sleep before our dads catch us still awake."
Adrianna cuddled up against Tristan, "G'night."
That's how Sam and Dean found them the next morning. At first they had a mini heart attack when they walked into Adrianna's room and didn't find their daughter in her bed. They wondered what had happened during the night.
Sam smiled, "Wake up sleepy heads." He rubbed their backs.
The two kids groaned as they tried to hide under the covers, "Nooo…Five more minutes."
Dean chuckled, "No, it's time to get up now munchkins." He pulled the covers off them.
"Daddy no!" They curled up into little balls, still not wanting to get up.
"I have Jellybean, you get Peanut." Sam lifted Adrianna into his arms ignoring Dean's glare. "I can still carry her De." He headed to the bathroom while Dean dealt with their oldest.
It took them a while, but they got their children ready for their visitor. Ash was on his way with Ellen. Sam and Dean quickly fed their sleepy children while they waited for Ellen.
"Adri did you have a bad dream last night?" Sam asked Adrianna as he set down a bowl of cereal in front of her.
She shook her head, "No, I just couldn't sleep."
Dean frowned, "Why not?"
She shrugged, "I don't know. Peanut helped me go to sleep."
"Yeah, she was alright after I tucked her in with me." Tristan smiled.
"That was nice of you Peanut." Dean ruffled his hair. "Now let's finish up before Aunt Ellen arrives."
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
"Oh my goodness, look at how big the two of you have gotten!" Ellen hugged the two Winchester children. "You look more and more like your parents every day. I bet you guys hear that all the time." She hugged Sam and Dean after she was done hugging the little ones.
"How have you been Ellen?" Dean asked once they were all settled.
"I've been good. Things at the Roadhouse have been the same as usual. No big monsters like before at least. I've missed you guys."
"We've missed you too, especially Ash here. Stacey doesn't let him get away with as much as you did." Dean grinned.
"Hey! That ain't true!" Ash looked indignant at the statement.
"You know it is." Dean looked smug.
"Boys stop acting like children. Tristan and Adrianna are more mature than you too." Ellen reprimanded Ash and Dean.
"That's what we're always telling them." Sam chuckled.
"Shut up Sam!" Dean and Ash chorused.
Adrianna and Tristan giggled at the exchange between adults, "They're so funny. " Adrianna brushed her fairy's hair.
"So Ellen, are there any keepers yet?" Sam asked as he handed her a beer.
She shook her head, "No, not yet, I am talkin' to this one guy, but we'll see how it goes."
"Well we'll need to meet him and he needs to get our approval if it becomes serious." Dean said as Ash nodded in agreement.
Ellen rolled her eyes, "I'm a grown woman. I should know by now who's good for me or not."
"He still needs our approval." Ash didn't want his surrogate mom ending up with some psycho.
"Yes mother." She saluted to Ash.
The four kept talking all the way to dinner time. Sam luckily already had lasagna waiting to be heated. Stacey had joined them later that day with Mikaila, Chase, and Kasey. Stacey and Ash's children called Ellen grandma. It always melted her when they called her that. The children were always happy when their grandmother came for a visit.
By the end of the night Ellen said goodnight to the Winchesters and went home with Ash and his family. She was going to stay with them for the next few days.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
Kendall's smile grew wide when he spotted Sam in the diner, "Hey Sam long time no see."
Sam chuckled, "It's only been a few days dude."
"I know, I know. So…did you think of a day to go to the movies?"
Sam had forgotten about their movie day, "Umm how about next week?"
"Yeah that sounds good to me, can't wait!" Kendall sat in the booth Sam directed him to.
Sam laughed at Kendall's enthusiasm, "Yeah we're gonna have fun. I've been so busy lately that I didn't have time to pick a day."
"Oh it's okay. I thought you had forgotten about it." Kendall looked over the menu absentmindedly.
"I'm sorry if I made you think that Ken."
"Don't worry Sam, it's okay. I understand. It's no rush if you can't go next week either."
"No, I'm good for next week." Sam smiled at his friend.
Sam took Kendall's order and went to give it to the chef. He attended to other customers, but would stop to talk to Kendall when he wasn't busy. He wondered what movie they were going to see. He really hoped it wasn't anything that would be a waste of time and money. At the same time Sam tried to hide that he wasn't feeling well. Morning sickness was hitting him hard. He still had to make an appointment with Ashley. Dean wanted to go with him so they had to wait for a day they could go together.
-SDSDSDSDSDS-
"Hey Alex." Sam waved to his friend from the bench.
"Hey Sam, how are you?" Alex joined Sam. The two were at the park.
"I'm good. How are you? Stace said you and Mike have been quiet."
Alex sighed, "I'm fine, really."
"I don't believe you." He placed his hand on Alex's knee. "You know you can talk to me about anything Alex."
Alex looked down sadly, "I still haven't gotten pregnant and Mike and I barely talk nowadays. I'm so scared Sam."
Sam hugged him, "Hey I'm here, and it's going to be okay. You and Mike are just going through a rough patch. You look like you've been losing weight."
Alex tensed against his friend, "I've had some trouble eating. It's just the stress from everything."
"Can you keep food down?"
"Sometimes." He shrugged. "Most of the time it makes me sick."
Sam frowned, "Have you taken a pregnancy test or gone to a doctor? That sounds like morning sickness."
He shook his head, "They're always negative so I stopped taking them."
"I think you should take one. I'll go with you if you want." Sam encouraged.
"I'll…I'll go, but please don't tell Mike. Please?" Alex begged.
"Hey it's okay. I promise I won't tell him. It'll just be between the two of us." Sam promised. "Let's go." He slowly got up, Alex still enclosed in his arms.
"I hope your hunch is right…"
"I hope so too." Sam smiled reassuringly.
Half an hour later, Sam and Alex were at Alex's house after going to the pharmacy. Sadly two tests later both said negative. Alex broke down in Sam's arms. Sam felt powerless; he didn't know what to tell his friend to make him feel better. To him something wasn't right. There was nothing wrong with either Mike or Alex that he knew about. There had to be a reason why he couldn't get pregnant.
"I told you Sam. It's my fault!"
"No Alex don't say that. You're probably still too stressed and I think you should go see a doctor and get an opinion." He rubbed his back. "Let's go out. Something to keep you distracted. I don't want you to think about it anymore for today."
Alex looked up at Sam, "O-okay." He wiped away his tears. "Let's go to the movies."
Sam smiled brightly, "That sounds like a great idea."
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
Sam sighed as he leaned against the front door. He was disappointed that Alex's pregnancy tests had read negative. He had thought for sure that his friend was pregnant. Out of a lot of people Sam knew he thought Mike and Alex deserved to have a baby the most. He knew that there was always adoption. There were a lot of children in the world that needed a family.
"Sammy you okay?" Dean had heard Sam walk in. His brother looked upset. He hadn't even opened his eyes.
"I'm okay De…"
"You don't sound like you are. Sammy what's wrong?"
"I was just with Alex."
"I know you were, but how is that bad? You guys always have fun when you hang out." Dean was confused.
"No, no we had fun in the end. It's just that he's so upset about the baby issue."
Sam blew out a breath and began to explain to Dean what had happened earlier that day. Everything from the pregnancy tests to the way Alex was feeling. It broke Sam's heart as he remembered the look in Alex's eyes that he couldn't stop the tears that formed and rolled down his cheeks.
Dean pulled Sam into his arms, "Hey it's gonna be okay Sammy. They'll make it through this. Mike and Alex will have a baby. It just might not be so soon." He thumbed away Sam's tears.
"I know it just makes me sad to see him so heartbroken. He looked so defeated when he saw the negative sign on both tests." He laid his head on his husband's shoulder.
"I can imagine baby, but please don't stress yourself out. It's not good for you or the baby." Dean ran his fingers through Sam's long silky locks. "Have you made an appointment with Ashley yet?"
Sam shook his head, "No, not yet. I was going to call her tomorrow."
"Okay, but don't forget to call." He knew he was mother henning Sam, but he didn't care.
"I won't, I promise." He sniffled. "How were the kids?"
"They were good. We were outside most of the day. They had fun running around and goofing off." He smiled at the memory of Adrianna trying to tackle her brother.
"Let me guess. Jellybean was trying to knock down Peanut again." Sam grinned.
Dean laughed, glad that the atmosphere had changed to a cheery one, "She isn't going to stop until she does. You know we could teach them some of our moves…"
Sam pulled away from Dean, "No way Dean, that's in the past. They don't need to learn anything."
Dean sighed, "Sammy I didn't mean to teach them how to hunt or use weapons. I just meant some innocent fighting moves, nothing too serious."
Sam looked away, "I don't know Dean…" He really didn't want their children learning anything that would remind him of hunting.
"We can even wait till they're a bit older. It's just for fun. We're not going to be hunters again."
"I'll think about it De." Sam gave his husband a small smile.
"Okay Sammy." He pecked Sam on the lips. "That's all I ask."

He laughed knowing they wouldn't stop until they were told. It was their common trait. Their dad hated it when they were stubborn as children. Even more when they were older, but it couldn't be helped. Dean shook himself out of the memories. He then went to save his brother once he made sure the pizza was baking.
"Settle down you two." Sam gestured for Tristan and Adrianna to sit down next to him on the couch. "We'll tell you once your dad joins us." Adrianna sat on Sam's lap while Tristan sat down in between his fathers.
"So I'm guessing you guys wanna know what's going on huh?" Dean smirked while he ruffled his son's hair.
"Yeah!"
Sam laughed, "Okay, okay."
"Tell us already Daddy. Please!"
"Well the surprise is…" Sam and Dean loved the two exasperated faces.
"Daddy!"
"In a few months you're gonna have a baby brother or sister!"
The two siblings looked at Sam's flat stomach, "What?" They were stunned.
Dean laughed, "Your Daddy's pregnant. He has a baby inside his tummy." He placed a loving hand on Sam's abdomen.
"Did you eat a baby, Daddy?" Adrianna looked at Sam innocently.
Tristan and Dean practically rolled on the floor with laughter. Sam glared at them, especially at his husband.
He wrapped his arms around his little girl, "No baby girl. I didn't eat a baby. I have a baby growing inside my tummy. Your father can explain it to you better. He did it for your brother when you were in my tummy."
"Ohh okay. So when is the baby coming?"
"When I go to the doctor we'll find out, but I still have a couple of months to go." Sam kissed the top of her head.
"So Peanut, what do you think of being a big brother again?" Dean asked his son once they stopped their laughter.
"I can't wait! We get someone new to play with."
"Yeah and Jellybean gets to be a big sister." Dean smiled at his little girl.
"Yay! We're gonna play tea party and dress up!" The youngest couldn't wait to have someone new to play with.
"Maybe, but remember that when the baby's born they're gonna be too little and won't be able to play yet." Sam warned his daughter.
"That sucks!" She pouted.
"Hey, we don't talk like that." Dean reprimanded. "Either way your brother said the same thing. The months will fly by, you'll see. Before you know it Baby will be here." He reassured his daughter.
"We're having a baby! We're having a baby!" Tristan and Adrianna sing-songed as they jumped off their parents laps and danced around the living room.
Sam and Dean smiled at the scene before them. They should've known they had nothing to worry about. They had great kids and would love the new baby just as much as they love each other.
Once the kids calmed down Sam and Dean told their children to keep the news of the baby to themselves for now. Tristan and Adrianna were confused, but promised their parents that they wouldn't tell anybody even their grandfather. It didn't stop their little dance.

Later that night Adrianna sneaked into Tristan's room once she thought her parents were asleep. She stood next to him and tugged on his sleeve.
"Peanut." She tugged again. "Peanut wake up."
Tristan groaned as he woke, "Wh-what?"
"I can't sleep…" Adrianna looked down.
"Did you have a bad dream?"
The little girl shook her head, "No."
"Then what's wrong Jellybean? I'm sleepy."
"Can I sleep with you?" She gave her big brother the puppy eyes.
Tristan scooted over in the bed and lifted the sheet, "C'mon."
Adrianna didn't waste any time and jumped under the covers, "Thank you."
The older brother wrapped his arms around his sister, "Now are you going to tell me what's wrong?"
She sighed against his chest, "It's about the new baby."
"What about the baby? Are you scared of being a big sister?"
"Are Daddy and Daddy De gonna treat me different? Are they gonna stop playing with me?" Adrianna's eyes filled with tears.
"No Jellybean they won't change. I thought the same thing when you were in Daddy's tummy. They have to give the baby extra attention because they can't do anything for themselves, but they'll still play with you. Plus I'll play with you too and our cousins. So don't worry about it sis." He wiped the tears that had escaped.
"O-okay if you say so."
"I promise Jellybean, now let's go to sleep before our dads catch us still awake."
Adrianna cuddled up against Tristan, "G'night."
That's how Sam and Dean found them the next morning. At first they had a mini heart attack when they walked into Adrianna's room and didn't find their daughter in her bed. They wondered what had happened during the night.
Sam smiled, "Wake up sleepy heads." He rubbed their backs.
The two kids groaned as they tried to hide under the covers, "Nooo…Five more minutes."
Dean chuckled, "No, it's time to get up now munchkins." He pulled the covers off them.
"Daddy no!" They curled up into little balls, still not wanting to get up.
"I have Jellybean, you get Peanut." Sam lifted Adrianna into his arms ignoring Dean's glare. "I can still carry her De." He headed to the bathroom while Dean dealt with their oldest.
It took them a while, but they got their children ready for their visitor. Ash was on his way with Ellen. Sam and Dean quickly fed their sleepy children while they waited for Ellen.
"Adri did you have a bad dream last night?" Sam asked Adrianna as he set down a bowl of cereal in front of her.
She shook her head, "No, I just couldn't sleep."
Dean frowned, "Why not?"
She shrugged, "I don't know. Peanut helped me go to sleep."
"Yeah, she was alright after I tucked her in with me." Tristan smiled.
"That was nice of you Peanut." Dean ruffled his hair. "Now let's finish up before Aunt Ellen arrives."
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
"Oh my goodness, look at how big the two of you have gotten!" Ellen hugged the two Winchester children. "You look more and more like your parents every day. I bet you guys hear that all the time." She hugged Sam and Dean after she was done hugging the little ones.
"How have you been Ellen?" Dean asked once they were all settled.
"I've been good. Things at the Roadhouse have been the same as usual. No big monsters like before at least. I've missed you guys."
"We've missed you too, especially Ash here. Stacey doesn't let him get away with as much as you did." Dean grinned.
"Hey! That ain't true!" Ash looked indignant at the statement.
"You know it is." Dean looked smug.
"Boys stop acting like children. Tristan and Adrianna are more mature than you too." Ellen reprimanded Ash and Dean.
"That's what we're always telling them." Sam chuckled.
"Shut up Sam!" Dean and Ash chorused.
Adrianna and Tristan giggled at the exchange between adults, "They're so funny. " Adrianna brushed her fairy's hair.
"So Ellen, are there any keepers yet?" Sam asked as he handed her a beer.
She shook her head, "No, not yet, I am talkin' to this one guy, but we'll see how it goes."
"Well we'll need to meet him and he needs to get our approval if it becomes serious." Dean said as Ash nodded in agreement.
Ellen rolled her eyes, "I'm a grown woman. I should know by now who's good for me or not."
"He still needs our approval." Ash didn't want his surrogate mom ending up with some psycho.
"Yes mother." She saluted to Ash.
The four kept talking all the way to dinner time. Sam luckily already had lasagna waiting to be heated. Stacey had joined them later that day with Mikaila, Chase, and Kasey. Stacey and Ash's children called Ellen grandma. It always melted her when they called her that. The children were always happy when their grandmother came for a visit.
By the end of the night Ellen said goodnight to the Winchesters and went home with Ash and his family. She was going to stay with them for the next few days.

Kendall's smile grew wide when he spotted Sam in the diner, "Hey Sam long time no see."
Sam chuckled, "It's only been a few days dude."
"I know, I know. So…did you think of a day to go to the movies?"
Sam had forgotten about their movie day, "Umm how about next week?"
"Yeah that sounds good to me, can't wait!" Kendall sat in the booth Sam directed him to.
Sam laughed at Kendall's enthusiasm, "Yeah we're gonna have fun. I've been so busy lately that I didn't have time to pick a day."
"Oh it's okay. I thought you had forgotten about it." Kendall looked over the menu absentmindedly.
"I'm sorry if I made you think that Ken."
"Don't worry Sam, it's okay. I understand. It's no rush if you can't go next week either."
"No, I'm good for next week." Sam smiled at his friend.
Sam took Kendall's order and went to give it to the chef. He attended to other customers, but would stop to talk to Kendall when he wasn't busy. He wondered what movie they were going to see. He really hoped it wasn't anything that would be a waste of time and money. At the same time Sam tried to hide that he wasn't feeling well. Morning sickness was hitting him hard. He still had to make an appointment with Ashley. Dean wanted to go with him so they had to wait for a day they could go together.
-SDSDSDSDSDS-
"Hey Alex." Sam waved to his friend from the bench.
"Hey Sam, how are you?" Alex joined Sam. The two were at the park.
"I'm good. How are you? Stace said you and Mike have been quiet."
Alex sighed, "I'm fine, really."
"I don't believe you." He placed his hand on Alex's knee. "You know you can talk to me about anything Alex."
Alex looked down sadly, "I still haven't gotten pregnant and Mike and I barely talk nowadays. I'm so scared Sam."
Sam hugged him, "Hey I'm here, and it's going to be okay. You and Mike are just going through a rough patch. You look like you've been losing weight."
Alex tensed against his friend, "I've had some trouble eating. It's just the stress from everything."
"Can you keep food down?"
"Sometimes." He shrugged. "Most of the time it makes me sick."
Sam frowned, "Have you taken a pregnancy test or gone to a doctor? That sounds like morning sickness."
He shook his head, "They're always negative so I stopped taking them."
"I think you should take one. I'll go with you if you want." Sam encouraged.
"I'll…I'll go, but please don't tell Mike. Please?" Alex begged.
"Hey it's okay. I promise I won't tell him. It'll just be between the two of us." Sam promised. "Let's go." He slowly got up, Alex still enclosed in his arms.
"I hope your hunch is right…"
"I hope so too." Sam smiled reassuringly.
Half an hour later, Sam and Alex were at Alex's house after going to the pharmacy. Sadly two tests later both said negative. Alex broke down in Sam's arms. Sam felt powerless; he didn't know what to tell his friend to make him feel better. To him something wasn't right. There was nothing wrong with either Mike or Alex that he knew about. There had to be a reason why he couldn't get pregnant.
"I told you Sam. It's my fault!"
"No Alex don't say that. You're probably still too stressed and I think you should go see a doctor and get an opinion." He rubbed his back. "Let's go out. Something to keep you distracted. I don't want you to think about it anymore for today."
Alex looked up at Sam, "O-okay." He wiped away his tears. "Let's go to the movies."
Sam smiled brightly, "That sounds like a great idea."
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
Sam sighed as he leaned against the front door. He was disappointed that Alex's pregnancy tests had read negative. He had thought for sure that his friend was pregnant. Out of a lot of people Sam knew he thought Mike and Alex deserved to have a baby the most. He knew that there was always adoption. There were a lot of children in the world that needed a family.
"Sammy you okay?" Dean had heard Sam walk in. His brother looked upset. He hadn't even opened his eyes.
"I'm okay De…"
"You don't sound like you are. Sammy what's wrong?"
"I was just with Alex."
"I know you were, but how is that bad? You guys always have fun when you hang out." Dean was confused.
"No, no we had fun in the end. It's just that he's so upset about the baby issue."
Sam blew out a breath and began to explain to Dean what had happened earlier that day. Everything from the pregnancy tests to the way Alex was feeling. It broke Sam's heart as he remembered the look in Alex's eyes that he couldn't stop the tears that formed and rolled down his cheeks.
Dean pulled Sam into his arms, "Hey it's gonna be okay Sammy. They'll make it through this. Mike and Alex will have a baby. It just might not be so soon." He thumbed away Sam's tears.
"I know it just makes me sad to see him so heartbroken. He looked so defeated when he saw the negative sign on both tests." He laid his head on his husband's shoulder.
"I can imagine baby, but please don't stress yourself out. It's not good for you or the baby." Dean ran his fingers through Sam's long silky locks. "Have you made an appointment with Ashley yet?"
Sam shook his head, "No, not yet. I was going to call her tomorrow."
"Okay, but don't forget to call." He knew he was mother henning Sam, but he didn't care.
"I won't, I promise." He sniffled. "How were the kids?"
"They were good. We were outside most of the day. They had fun running around and goofing off." He smiled at the memory of Adrianna trying to tackle her brother.
"Let me guess. Jellybean was trying to knock down Peanut again." Sam grinned.
Dean laughed, glad that the atmosphere had changed to a cheery one, "She isn't going to stop until she does. You know we could teach them some of our moves…"
Sam pulled away from Dean, "No way Dean, that's in the past. They don't need to learn anything."
Dean sighed, "Sammy I didn't mean to teach them how to hunt or use weapons. I just meant some innocent fighting moves, nothing too serious."
Sam looked away, "I don't know Dean…" He really didn't want their children learning anything that would remind him of hunting.
"We can even wait till they're a bit older. It's just for fun. We're not going to be hunters again."
"I'll think about it De." Sam gave his husband a small smile.
"Okay Sammy." He pecked Sam on the lips. "That's all I ask."
