The morning's were quickly becoming hectic now that Aria insisted they all stay in the same room, a difficult feat when they were mainly large men and also a tiny girl who liked to make a mess whenever possible. Blocks, coloring books, stuffed toys. The floor was quickly becoming a minefield that some were not equipped to make it through (Sam had tripped twice and cursed so foul that Castiel covered Aria's ears)

     "Why can't we just have two rooms like always?" he complained rubbing the bottom of his foot.

     "Becaaause I like when we are all together."

Aria wrapped her little arms around his middle and sent a smile up at him resulting in an automatic win for her cause, with Sam returning the warmth and leaning down to kiss all over her face. They had arrived in Meridian Idaho a day ago and Aria had insisted they share a room with two big beds so she could have everyone close to her.

     "Alright," Sam relented and put his arms around her "But you need to start cleaning up your toys before we all end up in the hospital."

Dean snorted from his place on the bed, realizing it was the safest bet during hurricane Aria, and took another bite of his burger while talking between chews

     "It's good reflex training Sammy, get into the spirit."

     "Is that why you haven't moved in an hour, Dean?"

     "Shut up Cas."

Aria fell into a fit of giggles and looked back up at Sam, moving his hair from his eyes and placing a soft tap onto his nose making him smile wider. Their skin ship was always so light and playful, with little taps having multiple meanings and her eyes asking questions he didn't need to hear to answer. Like a language they only spoke to each other. 

Castiel stood up and fixed his jacket. He and Dean were going to go and follow a lead on the current case; they believed it was only hex work but they wanted to be extra careful in case any angels or demons popped up, hence why Cas was going instead of Sam. In the meantime Aria and Sam would be heading to the supermarket and then to a witness's house where Aria, begrudgingly, would wait in the car while he talked to them. With all their tasks in mind Dean finally got up and Sam helped Aria put her jacket on before they all left, Dean and Castiel placing kisses onto Aria's head and getting into the Impala while Sam headed to the other car they had 'liberated' about three towns over. Aria liked this car because it was silvery and she was allowed to sit in the front as long as she kept her seat-belt on.

     "Ready to go?" Sam asked clicking his own seat-belt into place.

     Aria grinned and kicked her legs "Ready!"

Trips to the supermarket held different perks depending on who you went with. If you went with Dean he would let you sit in the car and would pile groceries around you so when you saw the cashier finally they would try and hide their giggles but also offer you a lollipop. When you went with Castiel he would make you hold onto his hand and get very nervous if you let go, but would let you grab the groceries and place them into the basket and let you get whatever you wanted as a snack. And if you went with Sam he would have you hold onto the cart and trap you between it and himself so you couldn't run away but he also let you get a healthy snack of your choosing, an unhealthy one if you gave him puppy eyes.

Aria was already in his arms scanning for something Sam approved of as they went to grab the basics, fearing it would be a longer stay than they had hoped and taking advantage of the small fridge in their motel room. They were in the fresh foods isle grabbing a bag of apples when Aria felt a chill that had nothing to do with the cold air circulating around. Her eyes automatically began to dart around to find the source....but she saw nothing out of the ordinary.
