“What are you doing?”

            She spun around to see Nicole eyeing her curiously. “Nothing…”

            “Slapping your forehead red is nothing?” Nicole asked as she came to stand beside her. She looked down on what Dean was looking at but all she could see was Mary Cherry doing backstrokes. “You’re watching Mary Cherry?”

            “Is that so strange?” Dean asked.

            “Well, yeah… I mean that’s Mary Cherry…” Nicole said as if that would clear everything up.

            “Stranger things have happened…”

            “Like what?” Nicole turned and was a bit startled when she found the brown eyes looking down at her. “Strange as in Easter Bunny strange?”

            “Nah… Sleeping with you…”

            Dean saw the hurt in her eyes and she felt a jab of guilt. They had never talked about that, not even during the times of her ‘visits’. They were too busy ripping each other’s clothes off to bother for words. And she was afraid of what the consequences might be when they talked it out.

            What she did next was the only solution she knew that could make Nicole compliant. She pulled her into her arms and closed her mouth on hers. Nicole didn’t fight the kiss. The feeling that passed between them was electric but neither Dean nor Nicole wanted to think about it as they tumbled down onto the bed.

            Suddenly the door swung open and Sam came walking into the room. Her eyes widened at sight of the tangled limbs on her bed.

            “Argh!!”

            They both jumped away from each other.

            “My eyes!” Sam cried. “Oh, god! I’m blind!”

            “Spam!”

            It was lucky that Dean was quick to grab Nicole before she jumped on Sam. “Whoa…! Nicole… It’s okay… Nicky… Listen to me…” She tried to explain. “Spam – I mean Sam, already knows…”

            Nicole stopped struggling. “What?”

            “I’ve known about you two for ages…” Sam said still covering her eyes.

            “And you didn’t publish it in the papers?” Nicole asked in disbelief.

            “Surprised?” Sam asked. “It surprised the ***** out of me too…” she said.

            “She’s doing it as a favor for me…” Dean said.

            “Can I open my eyes now?” Sam asked.
