074. back in time

Natalie is asleep and snuggling under the small blanket she keeps in her bag. She was too tired to change or do much so she just grabbed the blanket and crashed.

Her eyes open and she looks around, finding comfort of the motel room. She takes a deep breath, rubbing her hands over her face. She sits up, jumping when she spots Cas sitting on the edge of Dean's bed.

"Dude, what the fuck?" Natalie asks, putting her hand over her heart. "Jesus. What the fuck is your problem? Friggin' Edward Cullen." She grumbles.

Dean wakes up, turning around to find Cas.

"Hello, Dean, Natalie. What were you dreaming about?" Cas asks.

"Stabbing you and successfully killing your weird, creepy ass." Natalie remarks.

"What, do you get your freak on by watching other people sleep?" Dean asks. "What do you want?"

"Listen to me. You have to stop it." Cas says.

"Stop what?" Dean asks. Cas puts two fingers to Dean's forehead.

"What the hell did you do?" Natalie asks as Cas walks over to her. "Castiel, what--" She stops as Cas puts two fingers to her forehead.

"Move it, guys. You can't sleep here." Natalie wakes up at the unfamiliar voice.

"Okay." Dean mumbles. Natalie lifts her head, seeing her feet by Dean's head as they sleep on a bench. "Sleep... where?"

"Anywhere but here." The cop says, walking off.

Natalie groans, sitting up and Dean sits up, making sure not to accidentally kick his sister. Dean takes his phone out, but doesn't have any signal.

"Perfect." Dean sighs. "You got any?" Natalie feels her pockets.

"I don't have my phone." She says.

"Great." Dean rolls his eyes.

They go across the street to a diner and go in, sitting at the counter.

"Hey, where the hell am I?" Dean asks the guy he sat next to.

"Jay Bird's Diner." The guy answers.

"Yeah, thanks. I mean, uh... city and state." Dean says.

"Lawrence, Kansas." The guy says, giving Dean a weird look.

"Lawrence." Dean mumbles.

"Hey, you okay, buddy?" The guy asks.

"Yeah, tough night." Dean says.

"Hey, uh, coffees here, Reg." The man says, pointing to the two siblings.

"Okay, coming right up." Reg says. Dean pulls his phone out.

"Can you tell me where I can get reception on this thing?" Dean asks.

"The USS Enterprise." The man scoffs. Reg walks over, giving the siblings their coffees, his outfits incredibly '70s hippie looking.

"Thanks." Dean tells him. "Nice threads. You know Sonny and Cher broke up, right?"

"Sonny and Cher broke up?" The guy asks.

Natalie and Dean share a look before looking around, seeing that everybody and everything is very '70s. Dean looks at the newspaper in the guy's hand and elbows Natalie. She follows his gaze, reading the date on the newspaper.

April 30, 1973

"Oh, shit." She whispers.

"Hey, Winchester." The three at the counter turn to the man's voice. He walks past Dean and Natalie, going straight to the guy by Dean. "Son of a bitch. How you doing, Corporal?"
