The Start of a Journey... and a First Disaster

Dean had been practically shaking when he was stuffing his bag with everything he'd need the previous night. He was wearing a pair of his older jeans, dark and slightly ripped at the knees, and a collared black shirt. He slid his bag over his shoulder and headed off to the dock to meet up with Selia and start their little adventure. At least he was going with someone he liked -he really liked. After kissing her the other day on the grass, his feelings about her changed. They went form just a friend in which they were going on a trip together to something much more, to something she could possibly be, and that Dean hoped would be. But maybe he was thinking to much of it. It was just a kiss...or two. And beside,s maybe Selia wasn't reading too much into it either.

Dean gave out a yawn and checked his watch. It was almost 7:30 AM, a time in which Dean was not okay with. Sure, he could have easily teleported over to where he had to go and be there in less than two seconds, but for some reason, he felt like walking that morning. It seemed to him like he didn't really get a lot of it lately.

After a few minutes Dean spotted Selia waiting for him near the docks, swaying from side to side. Deciding to use his power since she was in sight, he teleported himself right beside her, landing quietly. "You ready?"

"Yeah, I'm ready."

Dean nodded and gave Selia a toothy smile in return. He was actually quite eager to get their journey started. He took his boat ticket form Selia's hand and slide it quickly into the inner side pocket of his bag.

"Lets go. I don't want to stand away to change my mind."

"Me neither. C'mon," Dean said, extending his hand for her to take hold of it. They'd better leave quickly because if they dawdled for too long, Dean might actually change his mind and chicken out. Hopefully he wouldn't. He didn't want to look like a total loser and wimp in front of Selia.

As he and Selia walked and in hand up the ramp towards th boat, Dean looked up at the sky, just to take a quick look at what the weather could possibly be like. Sure, he was no expert in the weather department, but he could tell it if was going to rain or not. The sky was bright blue, and only a few thick clouds hovered around them. Everything seemed fine, and the weather seemed just perfect.

"Well, it will be nice scenery on the boat."

Dean shrugged lightly. "I just hope I don't get sea sick," He said with a laugh. Truth was he'd never actually stepped foot on a boat before. He wasn't afraid of traveling on a boat, and the thought that it might sink did come to mind, but the chances weren't very good, right?

"You better not get sick."

Dean shurgged as he stepped foot on the boat. I'll try not to." So far so good, no uneasiness was felt with his first steps on the slightly rocking boat.

"Now, I believe we have cabins next to each other, though, I made sure I got cheaper rooms, not wanting to use all of Daddy's precious money."

"But what if your dad realizes it's missing, goes to find out what charges have been made and then ends up tracking us down?" It was a slight pessimistic thought, but on the other hand, it would save them the trouble of searching all over for him.

"Good, I don't want to kiss anyone that gets sick."

Dean grinned and said, "All the more reason." He took a seat on the boat and peered over the edge. So far so good. And not a hint a nausea.

"He won't notice... or he won't care. And it could help us if he did start tracking us. Could get answers from him then, it would... make this trip easier."

Dean shrugged. "True, so either way, we should be prepared if he ends up attacking us by surprise or something, you know?" Sure, Dean hoped that something like that wouldn't happen; he utterly hated surprises, but if Selia's dad ended up surprising them, boy would he give him a good pounding. At least, he hoped he would, after all, he had no idea how powerful or strong he was.
