Bobby headed to bed and could still hear Sam and Dean arguing over the remote. He had to laugh. Not much had changed. Bobby slipped into bed beside Jo thinking she was fast asleep. He jumped when Jo asked, "How do you feel about me?"
"I love you, Jo," there was no hesitation in his voice. "I thought you knew that."
"I love you, too, Bobby," Jo wanted to cry with happiness. "I never knew if you felt protective of me or loved me."
"Oh, darling," his voice was soft. "You should have asked sooner. You didn't have to worry."
"Well, Bobby," Jo was having a hard time with her words. "It's just that . . . I wish . . . I wanted to ask you . . ."
"Just ask me, Jo," he put a hand on her cheek so he could see her face. "Whatever is in your mind, it's okay to say."
It was the look in his eyes that calmed her. He was giving her his undivided attention and really wanted to know what she was trying so hard to say.
"I'd like to, but I don't want you to be grossed out. I didn't know if you wanted me the same way. I want something wonderful to erase the Road House memory." She looked at Bobby and hoped he'd understand what her broken sentences were trying to say.
"Take a deep breath, Jo, and relax," Bobby was smiling. "The picture you painted wasn't too clear. But did it start like this?" Bobby kissed her and held her close. She melted under his lips. "More?" Bobby asked.
"All," was her reply.
"All?" Bobby asked. "I've never been with a lady who's expecting."
"You don't have to if it grosses you out--"
"No, Jo. It's just that I didn't want to hurt you. I don't know if there are rules during pregnancy."
"I think we just do what feels good," Jo replied.
"If you say so," Bobby captured her lips with his once again.

Meanwhile, Sam and Dean tired of late night television. They turned it off and could hear the rustlings coming from Bobby's room. "Good for him," Dean said. "I don't ever recall seeing Bobby with a woman. Jo could be good for him."
Sam was shocked at his brother's insight. "I think she already is."
They were climbing into bed when Dean asked, "Do you think we should call Dad and let him know what Bobby said?"
"That's for Bobby to do," Sam replied. "Like Bobby said, we can handle Dad later. He doesn't need us right now."
There were a few minutes of silence.
"Didn't that video seem gross to you?" Dean asked.
"Well, it's not something I'd rent for a Friday night if that's what you mean," Sam remarked. "It's just a fact of life, Dean. We all got here the same way."
"I prefer the stork theory," Dean stated.
"You prefer to live in the land of make-believe?"
"Yeah. Besides, after seeing someone go through giving birth, wouldn't it be kinda difficult to think of them as sexy?"
"They're the ones going through the pain to get the baby. Our part of the baby making is easy and fun. You'd have to respect and love a woman wanting to have your baby, Dean. I think the love part gets you through. I think Dad had that with Mom but he doesn't with Jo."
"Why is that?"
"He must not have made a connection with her."
"Connection. I get those."
"No, Dean, not hook-ups. An actual connection or relationship."
"Oh," Dean's voice fell flat. "One of those."
"Didn't think those were high on your list, Dean," Sam chuckled.
Dean would have thrown his pillow at Sam but then he'd have to walk over to retrieve it if Sam wouldn't give it back.
