Secrets Part 1

Sam woke up in the middle of the night to hear Tessa screaming in her sleep. He sat up, ran his fingers through his hair, then made his way down the hall and into her room. He sat down on the bed and put his hand on her arm.

" Tessa. "

The last thing I remembered were the black eyes. I sat straight up, my breathing hitching in my throat.

" You alright? " My dad asked.

This had become frequent over the past couple months, so I knew that I would be.

" Yeah. "

My dad looked at me, and pulled on a smile.

" Try and get some sleep. "

He kissed my forehead, and closed the door behind him.

" She okay? ' Jade asked, putting her head on his chest, after he climbed back into the bed.

" It's getting worse. " Sam sighed, feeling helpless.

Jade hesitated. She knew that they had decided not to tell her about the " Family Business" but they worse she got, the more she felt like they needed to.

" She's old enough now Sam. "

" No. "

" If this get's any worse, I'm telling her, with or without you. " Jade rolled over to her side of the bed and closed her eyes.

I shook my head, knowing there was no way I was going to get back to sleep. I got up, went into my bathroom and flicked on the lights. I took a long hot shower and when I looked at the clock when I got out, it was 7:30 am. I grabbed my helmet, hopped on my bike and went for a drive. When I came back around 9, I seen a beautiful black Impala in my spot. I pulled off my helmet then went inside. When I came into the living room, my dad got to his feet.

" Tessa, this is your Uncle Dean. "

Dean couldn't believe what he was seeing.

" You grew up since the last time I seen you. "

" Is that your car? "

" Sure is. " Dean smirked.

I looked between my dad and his brother. They looked a like, but so different at the same time. We talked for a bit until my phone rang.

" Excuse me. " I said, stepping into the kitchen.

" She's pretty amazing. " Emma smiled.

Dean's smile faded as he seen the look on his brother's face.

" What's wrong? "

Jade let out a breath.

" She's been having nightmares. She wakes up screaming. "

" About what? "

" We don't know, she doesn't talk about them. "

" And you haven't filled her in on. "

" She doesn't know anything about this life and I plan to keep it that way. " Sam said, his anger scratching.

" Sam. " Jade spoke up.

" No Jade. " He shot back.

Jade felt her temper flare.

" She's my daughter too Sam, and if telling her about this life is going to help her, then I'm going to tell her everything, "

Sam looked at me as I came back into the room and his heart broke. By the look on his face, I knew something was up.

" What's going on? " I asked, slipping my phone into my back pocket.
