She slid out of her chair to wrap her arms around Dean, pulling him into a fierce hug. Five years with Carrot, and she hadn't thought-- no matter how she'd tried she never could imagine herself as his wife. She never thought what they had had a chance of surviving. But with Dean she couldn't see how there was anything else, or anyone, for her.
Dean had helped her in so many ways, she'd never been as happy as she was here, with him and the life they'd made on this strange little island. "I don't ever want to leave you, Dean. I won't."
