Maybe...

His feet moved below him, the coffee cup hot in his hand.

it’s alright…

Could he trust this? Could he trust the prayer rolling around like a litany in his head?

Maybe...

Everyone survived, miraculously. All three of them were going to walk out of this place.

we won’t fight anymore.

They still had the colt and the bullet. They could still track down the demon.

I don’t know...I don’t know.

The car could be fixed, damn it. They still had Dad’s truck if it couldn’t be.

But maybe, just maybe...

The coffee cup slipped from his hand.

The broken structure works so well in what must have been a disjointed moment in Sam's head just then. Very nice.

Thank you so much! I can't imagine he was thinking very coherently right then.

Oh... *hugs Sam*

I know. I just wanted to pull him to my ample bosom at that point and just comfort him and kiss him all over...*ahem*

Oh, this is so heartbreaking. A small moment of hope, denial, wishing and realization. *sniff*
Lovely job.

Thank you so much for reading! I wondered at the end how Sam was feeling about his dad's "Can we not fight anymore?" speech.

you just know sam's world got a whole lot brighter between dad sending him out for coffee and dean waking up, and then got a hell of a lot dimmer right after, and this mirrors that perfectly, the little bit of hope and the sudden knowledge that no, it's not going to be ok.

Thank you for reading. Sam completely and utterly broke my heart in that scene, the walking down the hallway, catching his father out of the corner of his eye, the realization and then...you know.

That episode still hurts.

Oh. MY. God.

You quoted one of my favorite Patty Griffin songs.

"Maybe love is waiting at the end of every war..."

I always wished I coudl be the kind of person who could get up int he morning and drink coffee with Mary.

This is just beautiful.

All you kids get out the back door, I've never seen her this mad before...

Yeah, Patty Griffin is one of my favorites. She never fails to give me plot bunnies. ;)

Thanks for reading!
