Problems And A Change Of Plans

**Two Days Later**:

 Dean sighed as he watched the rainfall, it was early afternoon and it had been raining since that morning, which meant Dean was forced to stay in the church with Father O'Conner. It wasn't that he didn't like the Priest or anything like that, it was just being in a church made him uncomfortable; hell, it even made Zander uncomfortable, but that wasn't the only reason Dean was angry about being stuck. The other reason was Father O'Conner's constant apologizing to him and Zander for what happened when they had first met him. It's been two days now and if he hears one more apology, he was going to rip his own ears off! If that wasn't bad enough, Father O'Conner would stare at both Vamps, like he was waiting for one of them to do some kind of stupid trick, mortals believed Vamps could do. Then there were the Priest's thoughts; all the constant religious stuff Dean had no need for, so he made sure to not listen to the Priest's thoughts anymore. Dean sighed again, thankfully he was alone right now, everyone else was downstairs having lunch together. Dean couldn't relax though knowing that Vassago had sent the family out into the city to find him and that meant innocent people were going to be hurt because of him. He couldn't even mindlink with Vassago to learn anything, no matter how hard he tried!

 "Dean?" Zander's voice spoke from behind him, breaking into his thoughts, he turned to face him.

 "Yeah?"

 "I brought you lunch, I thought we could eat together." Zander said smiling, as he held up two cups.

 "Thanks." Dean replied smiling, as he went to him and took one of the cups, before they sat together on one of the pews. "Why aren't you with the others?"

 "Same reason as you." Zander answered, before he took a drink from his cup.

 "Father O'Conner?" Dean asked smiling, Zander nodded smiling too.

 "I appreciate all his help, but..." 

 "If he doesn't stop apologizing, you're going to rip your ears off?" Dean asked, cutting him off smiling.

 "Exactly!" Zander agreed, making them both laugh.

 Meanwhile, Roman sat at the table drinking his coffee, after everyone had finished eating lunch. Rose and Violet were in the small kitchen keeping Seth, Paige and Father O'Conner company, as they cleaned up. Roman had been helping them too, but couldn't concentrate; he was too occupied with Dean and Zander's distancing themselves from the family. So, Father O'Conner noticing his distraction, handed him a cup of coffee and sent him out here to think, of course, he had spent the last 10 minutes listening for any movement from above him where Dean and Zander were. He knew how uncomfortable both men were being here at the church, but he figured it was just a Vamp thing, until over the last two days they began to spend more and more time away from the family. That worried Roman, he was afraid it had something to do with Vassago and the other Vamps, something neither of them were telling them about. He was so lost in his thoughts, that he never noticed Dean and Zander come into the room, until Dean spoke scaring him.

 "You scared the crap out of me, Dean!" Roman said, as he stood up looking at them and held a hand over his racing heart.

 "Sorry, baby boy, I thought you heard us coming. It's not exactly easy; even for Vampires  the masters of stealth, to sneak up on someone in an old church like this."

 "It's okay." Roman replied smiling, as he calmed down.

 "It stopped raining, so Dean and I were going to do some training. Would you like to join..."
