Summary: “I don’t want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off” (Loosely based on the song “Dress” by Taylor Swift.)
It shouldn’t hurt this much right?
To watch something that was never yours to begin with get taken away from you, that was.
It shouldn’t feel like someone was stabbing a dozen daggers into your chest all at once then twisting it around once it was well and sunk inside your skin. It shouldn’t.
You have to know by now; Dean Winchester would only ever belong to you in your dreams.
A man like him- tall, gorgeous, charming- would never go for someone like you.
If he hadn’t done so during the many years he’d known you why would he start now?
That slender, big-chested, perky blonde on the other hand- she was exactly the kind of woman he’d go for.
And the way he looked at her, gripped onto her protruding hips and gazed at her glossy lips- it was more than obvious how much he wanted to get her into his bed.
You had spent years wishing that was you. Wishing those rough hands would hold you like that, that those sparkling emerald eyes would ravage you hungrily.
Unfortunately, not only did Dean only see you as a little sister, but you were the farthest thing from his type.
With a sharp inhale, you force yourself to look away from the heinous scene unfolding before you, even when it took nearly all your strength to do so.
Because you couldn’t tear your eyes away from how easily her body curved in that skin tight red dress, the way her long legs seemed to go on for miles in those heels…and then comparing her utter perfection to your own body- only to come up short.
You were always too fat. Your curves were always too aggressive, too vuloptuous and out of control.
Not to mention, you could never pull off a dress like that. You knew this which is why you stuck to baggy jeans, and big t-shirts and flannels.
It was what you felt comfortable in, after all.
Never pretty- you don’t remember the last time you’ve felt pretty, but that was why comfort was what really mattered to you.
Without noticing it, your eyes fill to the brim with tears when you peek back at them and realized the way Dean’s hand fit so neatly in her tiny wasp-like waist, plump pink lips tilted upwards into a tiny smirk as he stares her down with hunger.
You never even stood a chance, did you?
When the sinking feeling settles in you at the thought, like an anchor sinking to the bottom of an ocean, you suddenly get off your stool, slamming a twenty on the bar.
“I’m leaving Sammy,” you inform your best friend, trying to keep your voice from breaking.
“Y/n-“ He opens his mouth to retort something to you but one look at your face and his mouth instantly snaps shut.
You probably looked like a kicked puppy.
He offers a sympathetic little frown, looking like he wants so badly to say something but instead only nods at you without further protest.
You sniffle, shoulders sagging with the weight of your heartbreak as you trudged your way back to the dank motel you’d gotten for the night.
After a long shower and changing into a baggy shirt and shorts, you tucked yourself into your bed and began watching some TV, trying your damn hardest not to burst into tears in case the brothers came back.
This was the way it would always be.
Another town, another night, another hunt.
“Friggin witches man,” Dean hisses with disdain, shaking his head. “I hate them.”
You can’t help but laugh at him. “I, for one, like witches.”
Both Sam and him stare at you like you’ve grown two heads.
“…dead,” you quip with a tiny smirk, pausing right outside the motel door.
Sam chuckles, pressing the key into the slot and pushing the door open for you. “Yeah,” he agrees.
“Second that, sweetheart,” Dean sighs out with a soft smile, ruffling your hair as he walked past you and made a beeline to the bathroom.
Your chest tightens at the tiny gesture as you pause by the door.
And once more it was made clear to you just who you were to Dean; a kid. A sister.
That’s all you’d ever be, you keep reminding your crushed hopes everytime they resurrected.
You wanted to stomp them out and keep them that way, but you just couldn’t help but let a tiny part of you hope for something more.
Despite how impossible it was for that to happen.
Sam presses a gentle kiss to your forehead when he gently pushes past you and sees your conflicted expression, rubbing your back comfortingly.
“We’re going out tonight- somewhere special to celebrate. You’re coming right?”
You shoot him a look as if to say ‘really?’.
Ever since the last time you’d seen Dean with that blonde woman, you refused to go with them to any more bars, opting to stay home in your pjs, eating ice cream and binging TV.
“No,” you instantly reject the offer.
Of course Sam knew exactly why you were refusing, but whenever Dean asked, you had to make up excuses so he wouldn’t get suspicious.
Most of the time you just acted like you were too sick or too tired from the hunt and although you could tell he was concerned for you, he fortunately never pushed for more than you were willing to give him.
“But why not?” He whines. “It’s gonna be fun I promise. Plus we get to dress up for once.”
You laugh. “You say it like I wanna dress up this whale body of mine.”
“Y/n,” he enunciates sternly. “Don’t talk like that. You’re gorgeous.”
You instantly scoff, rolling your eyes. “Okay.”
“He ain’t lying,” Deans gruff voice chides in.
A towel hangs low on his slim hips as he steps out fresh from the shower.
His tan skin glistening with fresh water, sparkling green eyes, damp dirty blond hair clinging to his forehead and that manly scent are all entirely too much for you.
“I never got why you feel the need to bring yourself down, sweetheart. You’re pretty.”
You have to force yourself to snap your gaze onto your duffel bag, aimlessly ruffling through your clothes to make yourself look busy.
“I-I’m too tired,” you manage to stammer out, trying to control your pounding heartbeat.
Dean clicks his tongue with slight irritation. “You always say that.”
“Well I am,” you insist. “Plus guys, it’s not like some fancy night club is really my scene anyways.”
Sam huffs. “Yeah, it isn’t ours either. But we deserve a night out, don’t you think?”
“You guys can go. I’ll just stay here and-“
Dean cuts you off. “And what, Y/n? Wallow in self-pity?”
“No, Sam. I’m right and she’s knows it. Look at me, sweetheart,” he commands and acting on pure instinct, you obey.
His breathtaking gaze bores straight into you, unwavering. “You think I haven’t noticed how strange you’ve been acting lately? How you refuse to share so much as a beer with us? You’re sad and I’m worried about you,” he breathes softly.
You swallow the lump in your throat, but your brain is still unable to form anymore words. You just stare at him, watery eyed, praying to whatever will listen that the truth doesn’t burst out of you.
That you don’t blurt something like “it’s because of you dummy. Because you break my heart everytime you leave with a new set of tits. Because you could never love me the way I love you.”
Sensing your discomfort, Sam tries to diffuse the situation. “You can stay if you want to, Y/n. We understand. Right, Dean?”
Even without even looking at him, you know Sam is giving Dean a death stare.
Dean looks at you then back up at Sam, sighing. “Fine. Yeah okay.” And walks towards the bathroom to get dressed.
You instantly relax once the weight of his gaze is off you, shoulders drooping.
“Y/n. C’mon, you need to unwind. At least think about it? Look if you change your mind I texte you the address. ”
You purse your lips, staring at his puppy dog eyes. “Okay,” You whisper softly.
A little while later, the boys are all dressed up and ready to go- meanwhile you’re still in your pjs.
Dean looks absolutely scrumptious and all you want to do is rip that button off right off those broad freckled shoulders and mess up that perfectly styled spiky blonde hair.
The green-eyed five course meal pauses before you, frowning. “Not saying you don’t look good in them, but maybe a change of clothes once in a while wouldn’t hurt, sweets.”
He presses a kiss to your forehead, petting your head as he walks out.
You know he didn’t mean it like that with his remark.
Dean would never bring you down like that, but for some reason it still stung like a bitch.
To further confirm that you would never be the kind of woman he’d please endlessly or hell- even look twice at was something Dean probably hadn’t realized he’d done but that stuck with you for the rest of your uneventful night.
At the peak of your boredom, you start looking through old pictures of you and the brothers. The nostalgia that flooded through you at the memories nearly made you cry as you came to stop on a certain one- your favorite picture.
It was one with only you and Dean, leaning on the impala. He was staring down at you with a soft smile and made you laughed gleefully at some dumb shit he’d said.
Your chest clenches tightly at the look in his eyes. It almost looked…wistful. Like he was happy and sweet and tender but also…sad.
It was the same look you’d give him.
You gasp without noticing. What if-
You stop yourself before letting your thoughts get much farther and shove the picture away.
Stop getting your hopes up Y/n.
Maybe Dean was right and it was time for a change.
Because if you were going to forget the Dean Winchester, you were gonna need a hell of a replacement and the only way to get that was to at least try to look good.
You started with your hair, curling it loosely so it fell softly over your shoulders. Then you shaved your legs and went about doing your make up.
You weren’t very good at make up, but you had watched a few you tube videos so you settled for a deep wine lipstick, a bit of a Smokey eye and some mascara. Good enough.
Next was your clothes. You didn’t have very many nice clothes, but at some point Sam had convinced you to buy a few dresses and heels along with your formal FBI suits in case you needed it in the future.
You never did which had made you extremely grateful because you didn’t feel comfortable in anything other than your baggy clothes.
“Today isn’t about comfort though,” you mutter to yourself with disdain, tugging uncomfortably on the tight black dress as it clings to your thick thighs.
You clasp on some heels, walking around a bit for practice. Your ankles bend and your knees wobble at first, but the longer you walk in them, the easier it gets.
When you feel comfortable enough, you head over to the mirror, staring at yourself.
Instantly, a wave of insecurity slams down on you. The dress left basically nothing to the imagination and you were less than pleased.
Your tummy was protruding and your thighs were basically glued together. Your stretch marks were in full view too.
Before you let the thoughts get to you too much, you stop staring at yourself and spin on your heel to walk away from it.
Not today Y/n. Not when you’re this desperate to stop caring for someone who would never care for you in the way you did.
You’re forgetting Dean remeber?
Needless to say, your resolve doesn’t last long once you step foot into the night club bar situation the brothers had opted for.
It immediately feels like everyone is looking at you as you nervously play with your fingers, writhing uncomfortably beneath the itchy fabric of the dress.
You already regret doing this.
It isn’t long before Sam spots you by the entrance of the semi-packed club and comes running over, eyes wide.
“Y/n,” he breathes, eyes trailing over you. “Oh.”
You scrunch you’re nose up. “It looks bad doesn’t it. I knew it did! I shouldn’t have-“
“What?!” Sam shook his head furiously. “What? No. Not at all Y/n. You just look different is all.”
You look down at yourself, pouting. “Is that bad or good?”
He throws an arm over your shoulder, tugging you to his side. “Good. Definitely good.”
You’re skeptical of his words, but follow him anyway to the bar where Dean is currently at- flirting with a perky brunette.
Your heart instantly drops, but you hide it behind a polite smile as Sam taps his brother’s shoulder.
Dean, looking downright annoyed, turns around, clearly ready to tear Sam a new one for interrupting his current rendezvous.
“Sam what- sweetheart,” the nickname falls from his lips like a curse. Like a “fuck!” Or “holy shit!”, except it’s quiet, breathless.
His mouth snaps shut when those eyes land on you, timidly standing beside Sam.
His eyes widen and his lips part as he inhales sharply. And then his eyes are flying everywhere at once, taking in your full figure with a slack jaw.
You shyly smile. “Hey, D.”
He doesn’t say anything, just stares at you and you instantly grow insecure thinking maybe it’s because of how ugly you look.
Was he so shocked to see you being “brave” by showing off your huge body like that?
He finally snaps out of it, shaking his head. “Y/n.” He swallows thickly, smiling warily.
You excuse yourself to go to the bathroom, desperate to leave their judging faces.
In your halphazard attempt to run away, you accidentally bump into someone, nearly knocking both of you on the floor. You topple to the side in your tall heels, letting out a tiny yelp.
Without hesitation, two big hands watch you by your arms, steadying you.
“Be careful there sweetness,” his southern accent is thick as sweet molasses and it instantly attracts your eyes to his dark brown ones.
You flush with embarassment when you realize how cute he is. “Oh my God! I am so sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going.”
He lets out a bemused chuckle. “It’s quite alright, hun.”
You smile up at him bashfully, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. “Thanks.”
And with that, you start to walk away from him. He stops you before you can get too far, gripping onto your forearm firmly.
You look cautiously at where his hand was and he quickly takes it away, laughing nervously. “Sorry. I just- I hope I’m not being too forward. You’re beautiful.”
You raise your brows in disbelief almost instinctively, blushing madly. “Me?” you blurt incredulously.
He laughs fully this time. “Yeah. You. Come sit with me?”
You glance over your shoulder at where the brothers were, immersed in flirty conversations with pretty women and decide why the hell not.
So you nod at him affirmitively with a tiny smile. “Sure.”
It wasn’t long before you were laughing full-heartedly at the man, James. He was genuinely funny and cute and for whatever reason, seemed taken by you. I mean, you couldn’t possibly fathom why.
But the more time passed with the easy banter, the more you drank and the less you worried about well, anything.
“You wouldn’t like me in real life. I’m not like this usually,” you confess, taking sip of your matini when he compliments you once again.
He raises a brow. “Oh? I highly doubt that. But tell me, miss Y/n, what do you usually wear?”
You lean forward, smirking confidently. (Yeah the alcohol was getting to you.)
“Well for starters, the baggiest shirts. The biggest jeans. The oldest flannels,” you lean back, laughing loudly.
“You still look gorgeous probably.”
You can’t help but giggle at his remark, touching his arms for a second. “Oh, James!”
Who even are you right now? Giggling…flirting..
You weren’t used to any of this. So when he places a gentle hand on your thigh you freeze, unable to react any other way because you’d never gotten this kind of attention.
He smirks. “Wanna head back to my place? Keep the party goin’?”
You open your mouth to answer but are cut off by another voice- gruff and angry.
“I don’t think so, buddy,” the deep voice bites.
Your head snaps up and you see Dean, flaring deep green eyes glaring holes into the hand which was still nestled neatly on your thigh.
“Take your hand off her before I make sure you don’t have one at all,” he husks without even looking at either of you.
James instantly retracts his hand, looking between you two with his brows furrowed.
Dean doesn’t let either of you say anything before he’s yanking you off your chair by your arm.
“We’re leaving,” he informs grumpily, leaving no room for protesting of any kind.
Then he’s yanking you along behind him, rough fingers wrapped tightly around your forearm as he carelessly pushes people out of his way.
“Dean-” you whine, struggling to keep up with his long and angry strides in your heels and intoxicated state.
He doesn’t stop until you’re standing before baby and you physically have to rip your arm from his hold.
You’re absolutely fuming at this point.
Who the fuck did he think he was, pulling you out of there like that?
“What the hell, Dean?!?” You wrap your arms around yourself to protect your exposed skin from the cool night breeze.
He doesn’t turn around to look at you, but his voice says it all when he speaks. “Get in the car, Y/n.”
He’s one-hundred percent serious. And done. So so serious and done, in fact, that his voice wavers with the weight of his stern.
And if it weren’t for the fact that you desperately wanted answers or the fact that you were buzzed enough to be able to ignore his fury, you might’ve let it go.
Unfortunately, neither was currently the case.
“No. You had no right! James was-”
“Oh, James!” He exclaims, throwing his hands up sarcastically. “Is that his name!?”
You reeled back from his harsh tone, frowning. “What the fuck is wrong with you Dean? You’re acting completely irrational.”
“Nothing is wrong with me, Y/n. Absolutely nothing,” he grits out with a wry smile.
“I’m going back inside.” You shake your head at him.
He laughs bitterly. “And I’m the one acting irrational! That- that ass just had his hand on your thigh and you just let him. Oh. And now you’re going back inside to do what? Continue letting him feel you up?”
“And what’s so fucking wrong with that?!” You yell back, frustrated by his hurtful words.
What was he insinutating? That you were easy? And anyway, what did he care?
He pauses for a split-second before answering in a venomous snap. “Everything! You’re…” he trails off abruptly.
“I’m what, Dean?” you growl, stepping closer to him.
You licks his lips, inhaling sharply. “You’re-” he falters, softening for only a split second. “Just get in the car, sweetheart” he demands once more this time more quietly, apple green eyes shimmering under the dim street lights.
But you refuse to back down. “No. Tell me what the hell your problem is or I go back inside.”
He let’s out a yell, slamming a hand on the hood of the car and leaning his forehead against it. “Dammit!”
You jolt, startled. He stays there for a few more seconds, back heaving with his audibly labored breaths,
You’re afraid to touch him right now, so you just speak in a soft comforting tone. “Dean. Just talk to me. Why are you acting like this?”
He sighs, slowly turning around to face you. He looks pissed.
“You really wanna know why I’m acting like this?” You go to say yes but before you can, he’s cutting you off. “It because of you,” he growls.
“Yes, you, Y/n. W-with your fucking tight little dress and your heels.” He motions loosely to you, jaw clenched and tight fists by his side. “Flaunting that ass around like-like you wanted James and every damn douchebag in there to fucking come up to you!” He spits the name out like it’s vile in his mouth and you flinch at his accusatory, disgusted tone.
Why the hell was he blaming you for something like that? It made no sense.
You raise your brows, shocked and hurt. “Oh, so because for one night I’ve decided to do what you suggested and actually got some male attention you’re acting like a little bitch?! What the hell is so wrong with that, exactly, Dean? You do this shit all the time, and you don’t see me giving you shit about it!”
He huffs, rolling his eyes and muttering, “It’s different with me.”
You bark out a laugh. “Different how?”
His jaw flexes. “I’m not a kid, for starters!”
You let out an incredulous sound, looking at him like he was out of his damn mind. “I’m not a kid Dean! When are you going to get that? There’s no need to act like a protective ass. I can damn well take care of myself.”
“I’ll get it when you stop acting like some sleazy hooker,” he snaps, green eyes flaring a darker, sinister shade.
You instantly stop, freezing at his words. As if realizing what he’s just said, Dean’s face drops.
He tries to grip your shoulder. “Y/n-“ but you aggressively shove him off of you, holding back tears.
He frowns apologetically. “Sweetheart I didn’t mean to-“
“I’m going home Dean. Alone.”
And with that, you spin on your heel and start making your way back to the motel.
Five minutes don’t pass of you first getting inside the motel before you hear the sound of the impala’s engine pulling up.
And suddenly the door is being thrown open, startling even your bones.
Then, before you can even react, Dean is standing in the doorway, chest heaving.
“It’s because I was jealous,” he blurts as soon as he sees you.
He doesn’t say anything as he runs a hand through his hair, stepping into the dark room and closing the door behind him.
The tiny ‘click’ of the door closing is defeaning against the tense silence now settled in the four of five feet between you two.
He licks his lips the way he always does when he’s nervous, cautiously look up at you. “I was jealous of James,” he repeats, the confession quiet but more powerful than if he would’ve screamed it because the raw emotion and sincerity were in clear display.
You don’t know what to say for the first few seconds after he speaks and so many thoughts are spinning around in your head.
“Dean I know I’m like your little sister and you’re protective of me but I’m fully capable of-“
“I know you are,” he mumbles, looking at you with a strange glint in his eyes- something new and unfamiliar. “That’s not…” he inhales deeply, searching around in his head for the right words. “I wasn’t jealous of you as a….sister.”
Still bewildered, you step a bit closer to him. “Dean, what are you trying to say?”
He groans, chuckling softly. “Are you really going to make me say it?”
Silently, he strides up to you, closing the remaining distance between you two. His hands creep up, gripping your face between them like he’d done so many times before, except this time it felt…different.
The air around you cackled with an unspoken electrifying emotion, his fingers felt like pure fire against your skin and you did it understand what exactly was about to happen but it felt like Ike you were on the verge of something big.
You gaze up at him through your lashes, questioningly.
He smiles, swiping his thumb over your cheek. “You look absolutely beautiful tonight sweetheart. Did I tell you that?”
Your breath hitches and you can’t help but blush madly. “I-I thought you didn’t like it,” you stammer out the admission, scared of his reaction.
He chuckles and his warm breath warms your skin. “Of course I do. You’re stunning. I just don’t want…other guys to see it.” He winces at his confession.
You laugh- not because it’s funny but because you’re nervous and all you can do is laugh.
He turns serious. “I’m sorry for the way I talked to you, sweetheart. I just-“ he purses his lips, pausing. “I hated seeing his hands on you. I hated the fact that he made you laugh in that way the makes your head go back and your eyes glimmer. I hated his stupid accent and his dumb hair because I knew you’d find it adorable. And fuck, I hated that he could give you everything I never could or will be able to,” he lets out all in a few breaths.
You just stare up at him, tears building up in your eyes, starstruck.
“I hate you,” you mutter finally.
You pound on his chest harshly, sobbing. “I hate you. I hate you. I hate you! How could you!”
You try to get your hands on him ever after he’s easily grabbed your wrists, wriggling aggressively.
“Sweetheart! Calm down. What the hell are you on about?!”
You settle for a second, warm tears rolling down your face and easily answer him because he was being a complete and utter jackass right now.
“The fact that you’d lie to me because you pity me makes you a cruel, vile human being Dean Winchester.”
He instantly shakes his head at you, eyes sad. “I’m not saying it because I pity you, sweets. Why would you even think that?”
You laugh bitterly, pointing to yourself. “Well, isn’t it obvious? I’m fat!”
At your words, something clicks in him and he’s suddenly titling your head up to meet his perfect green eyes.
“Y/n, I need you to listen to me very carefully right now okay? You are and will forever be the goddamn most beautiful thing that asshole God has put on this earth. If there is anything I have to thank him for it’s you. Don’t you understand?” He pleads quietly.
You don’t know how you manage to work around your erratically beating heart or the fact that Dean is so close and he smells so much like him, but through the huge lump in your throat you manage to stutter something along the lines of “understand what?”
“That I have to hold myself back from moving my lips from just a few inches away your cheek or your forehead to your lips and kissing the living hell out of you every damn time I touch you. That I love everything about you, even the bad things. Especially the bad things because really, they’re all good.” He laughs breathlessly. “That I wake up and go to sleep with that sweet smile on my mind. That I would do anything to keep it on that pretty face of yours. That I fuck anything with legs imagining that it’s you I’m sinking into. That all I want- no. All I need and fucking ache for every damn day I spend with and without you is the feel of your skin and the softness of your voice.” He swallows thickly, whispering. “That I am so hopelessly in love with someone I can never have.”
You close your mouth after a few long stretched out seconds of having it open. You don’t know what to say at first, still trying to process the emotion in his voice and the sincerity in his eyes and the sudden jolt of electricity shocking your entire body to your very core.
All the same, Dean is looking at you with a terrified expression, holding his breath.
He looks relieved at first, but then he turn wistful, brushing a strand of hair away from your face and behind your ear, lingering with his fingertips on your cheek for a few seconds.
“I couldn’t do that. You’re so young and we’ve been practically raised together. I couldn’t.”
“But you could!” You protest, chest clenching. “For as long as I can remember, Dean, you’re all I’ve ever wanted.” You bite your lip, placing a tender hand over his chest. “You’re all I need,” you finish in a breathless whisper, leaning against his touch.
You hear him breathe in shakily before he abruptly takes his hand off you and answers in a quiet, regretful tone. “I can’t.”
His words are like another stab to your chest and before you know what you’re doing-
“Fine. But don’t try to stop me from finding someone who can.”
You angrily walk towards the door, but before you can so much as lay a finger on the door knob, Dean’s own hand is shooting out, grabbing your elboe tightly. And then he;s yanking you back.
“The hell you are,” he growls, crushing his mouth onto yours roughly.
The kiss is enough to freeze you in your tracks and everything stops moving for a split second as you take in the feeling of his lips on yours, hard enough to bruise.
Your eyes flutter shut and you suck in a sharp breath, melting in to his touch as his fingertips glide into your hair, tugging at it gently. You moan lightly into his mouth as it slants over yours, deepening the kiss.
His tongue is warm and wet and silky and he tastes like liquor and apple pie and it leaves you breathless for a minute. You drown in his scent of leather and cologne, kissing back with just as much passion, holding onto his neck and shoulders in order to remain upright because your knees are about to give out beneath you.
The kiss happens in a flurry of heat and passion and anger and ends with unimaginable sweetness.
You peer up at him, chest heaving.
“Dean?” your voice trembles.
He smiles softly. “I love you and I’ll be damned if I let you go running to some other man.”
You laugh unbelievingly. “Really? Y-you love me?”
He nods instantly. “Of course.” Suddenly, he smirks.
“Nothing, I’m just glad you wore that dress.”
