[Fact of the matter is that most people she knows don't stay in one place long enough to form attachments. Most of them were like Dean, on their way after a day or two. Some of them came back, if only briefly. Some didn't. It made it difficult, when you let yourself begin to care about someone.
Her family had a history with the Winchesters, but it was a painful one. She'd liked Dean immediately, but she still wasn't sure how she felt about him or his brother, looking at the bigger picture, anyway. He'd helped her. She was grateful for that. She'd returned the favor. And when he walked off without her, she'd been disappointed, but it's been years since then. She'd carried that torch a long time, but without anything to kindle the fire, it had died out.]

[She tilts her head towards the door, questioning. No funny business, but if they were going to chat awhile, privacy would probably be better.
She was pretty sure she'd left the room in a decent state.]
I don't want to hold you up if you have other things you need to do.
