It took us a good long while to calm Garth down. He kept pointing at Venom then at me then back at Venom as he tried to form words. To make things short, Garth ended up having the biggest freakout of his life.

He screamed like a girl.

That's another way to put it.

He kept pointing at me and going 'Alien, alien, it's an alien!'

How would you expect someone to react when they've seen you?

At least he didn't shoot us like the Winchesters.

And now we've got to explain to him who you are back at the hotel while Sam and Dean left to get the box translated. I feel so bad for Garth. We practically scarred him.

"So let me get this straight," Garth began. He pointed at me. "Your old man had this parasite -" PARASITE! "- stuck inside of him for a good part of his life."

"Yeah," I answered.

"And he didn't know you hunt the supernatural even though he fought this kid with spider powers, aka Spider-Man, who you won't reveal his secret identity?"

"Right."

"Now, Venom lives inside of you so you gain all of these superhuman abilities?"

"Right again."

He looked a bit worried and scared at this point. "Was he there when you and I -" Garth held one finger up and used his thumb and pointer finger on the other hand to make a circle.

My eyes widened. "No, God, no. I only had Venom for a few months. What happened that night was just us."

Venom popped out from my shoulder and I grinned at him. "Yet, I know every detail that happened," he teased. "I know every sound Lexa made. I know every sound you've made." He got closer to Garth's face. "I really hope you washed that sock."

Garth began blushing as the door to the room opened. Sam and Dean entered the room which made Garth jump back.

"Are Sam and Dean ok with it?" he asked.

"With Lexa? Yes," Dean answered. "With the parasite living inside her? No."

Venom growled before going over to Dean. "How many times do I have to tell you...I. Am. Not. A. PARASITE?!"

Dean was getting annoyed by the second. "You eat off the nutrients coming from Lexa as you live inside of her." He pointed at me. "Host." Then at Venom. "Parasite. Point proven."

"But I'm not like other parasites. I am much more powerful than a stupid parasite. We are not parasites in my home. We are known as Klyntar -"

Dean waved him off. "Yeah. Yeah. You're an alien."

Garth snapped his fingers. "I got it," he said. "Venom is a parasitic alien."

Venom went back to Garth and to my surprise, he smiled. "Ok, Garth, I'll go with that."

Dean gave Venom a what the hell look. "Seriously?"

Venom turned to Dean. "It's real simple, Dean. I like Garth more than you."

I sighed in annoyance. "I'm surrounded by children," I said.

Sam cleared his throat. "Hey, Lexa...Where's Baxter?"

"Bathtub," Venom answered. "I wanted to eat the sucker while he's passed out but someone told me not to. And Garth was still screaming so I ended up dragging his body while Lexa gagged him."

Dean looks at me. "You have the CEO of the douchiest microbrew in the US gagged in the hot tub? You really think that's gonna end well?"

I rolled my eyes. "Well, what else was I supposed to do? Garth was freaking out over Venom and Baxter was waking up."
