The hunt was over, easily finished, and the night before Halloween, Dean told Sam not to wait up. After Dean drove away, Sam resumed his research—he’d find a way out of Dean’s deal. He would, no matter what it cost. Dean was not going to Hell, not even for half a moment.
By one in the morning, Sam was exhausted, so he shut down his laptop and crawled into bed.
He woke at seven to an empty motel room. Dean had yet to come back.
After showering and packing, Dean still wasn’t back. When Sam looked out into the parking lot, Dean’s Impala, however, was there.
But Dean wasn’t.
Sam called Dean’s phone, and Dean didn’t answer. He examined the car and surrounding area, and called Dean’s phone again. And again. And again.
But finally someone did pick up. A female voice said breathlessly, “Hello?”
Annoyance swept through Sam, immediately followed by anger. If Dean had hooked up and not bothered to answer Sam before now… “You’re not Dean,” he said, the words bitten off and harsh.
“No,” the stranger replied after a moment. “I found this cell beneath a bush.”
Sam felt his heart stop. No. Dean couldn’t have gotten into trouble.
Oh, hell, of course he could.

He dated a feminist once. Well, okay, he fucked her. (If you want to get technical about it, she fucked him. It was an interesting month, okay? No one could ever accuse Dean Winchester of being afraid to experiment.)
But anyway. During the act, she said poetry. It was hot. After, when they were both sated and languid, he asked what she’d been saying.
She laughed. “Anne Sexton. You wouldn’t like her.”
The next time, and the time after, and the time after that, she kept quoting the same poem. Dean got curious. So he looked up Anne Sexton and tracked down the lines he remembered.
The poem she’d been murmuring into his ear and screaming between curses, his name, and moans? “In Celebration of My Uterus.”
Dean laughed so hard he got kicked out of the library.
He went back later and read the whole thing. Come to find out, he liked it.
Not that he’ll ever tell anyone.
‘specially not Dad. Or Sammy. Sheesh. Sammy would never let him hear the end of it.
The feminist(name of Dale, if you can believe that) taught him a lot. He owes her.
… maybe he should send her some flowers.
Everyone in me is a bird.
I am beating all my wings.
They wanted to cut you out
but they will not.
They said you were immeasurably empty
but you are not.
They said you were sick unto dying
but they were wrong.
You are singing like a school girl.
You are not torn.
Sweet weight,
in celebration of the woman I am
and of the soul of the woman I am
and of the central creature and its delight
I sing for you. I dare to live.
Hello, spirit. Hello, cup.
Fasten, cover. Cover that does contain.
Hello to the soil of the fields.
Welcome, roots.
Each cell has a life.
There is enough here to please a nation.
It is enough that the populace own these goods.
Any person, any commonwealth would say of it,
“It is good this year that we may plant again
and think forward to a harvest.
A blight had been forecast and has been cast out.”
Many women are singing together of this:
one is in a shoe factory cursing the machine,
one is at the aquarium tending a seal,
one is dull at the wheel of her Ford,
one is at the toll gate collecting,
one is tying the cord of a calf in Arizona,
one is straddling a cello in Russia,
one is shifting pots on the stove in Egypt,
one is painting her bedroom walls moon color,
one is dying but remembering a breakfast,
one is stretching on her mat in Thailand,
one is wiping the ass of her child,
one is staring out the window of a train
in the middle of Wyoming and one is
anywhere and some are everywhere and all
seem to be singing, although some can not
sing a note.
Sweet weight,
in celebration of the woman I am
let me carry a ten-foot scarf,
let me drum for the nineteen-year-olds,
let me carry bowls for the offering
(if that is my part).
Let me study the cardiovascular tissue,
let me examine the angular distance of meteors,
let me suck on the stems of flowers
(if that is my part).
Let me make certain tribal figures
(if that is my part).
For this thing the body needs
let me sing
for the supper,
for the kissing,
for the correct
yes.

Nicely done. And I’m intrigued about the rest of the story.
