Sooner or later Dean figured the beast would get someone he cared about. Maybe Red had been just a convenient lay, and a pretty friggen good one, but it was hard for him not to care about the few people he'd met on the Island

It seemed that Hermione's Avada Kedavra curse had done at least some good. The animal had taken a good chunk out of her shoulder and upper arm, but it turns out the only reason she blacked out was because it knocked her back onto the sidewalk and she hit her head. The spell must have scared the thing away because she was alive and it didn't attempt to do more than it's initial grab for her. She didn't kill it. If what she suspected was true, the killing curse wasn't ever going to do more than scare it away anyway because it technically wasn't a living being

Dean reached out to touch his fingers to her hair as he tried to keep from touching her injured shoulder. "Hey, hey... it's okay. You're safe.

"Most chicks would've just screamed and stood there doing nothing."

He leaned down to try and catch her gaze again. "Exactly where are you planning on taking the Big Bad Hunter, anyway?"

"If I was a guy, saying I pulled my wand could actually sound like quite a feat," Hermione said through the tears. "I'm usually not this weak. Let's blame the drugs. At least, that's what I'll say if anyone hears I'm bawling like a baby."

"Anyone accuses you of bawling like a baby and I'll kick their ass," Dean promised. "You're allowed to get a bit emotional after what you went through, Red. I won't hold it against you. However, I will need to ask if you remember anything. Me and Sam could really use a break with this thing."

Dean smirked and helped brush the tears away with his thumb. "He's hardly going to object since he had so much fun the last time. If he keeps talking about himself in the second, or third person, then he might just wind up taking his own life first."
