Library [01/21]

Sam was doing his best to not think about the weekend as he went to open the library. He was working especially hard to not think about being in Dean's room the night before. There were certain things little brothers just didn't need to know about their big brothers.

"I completely agree," Sam said. "I just wanted to make sure you felt the same way, that's all."

"It can't be coincidence," Peter said. "Her being here, us being here. We may not be directly related, but it's got to count for something."

"Maybe it's a good thing you're all together," Sam said. "Good things are possible, you know."

"I was thinking maybe it's about changing the future," Peter said. He looked up at Sam from under his bangs, not bothering to push them out of his way. "Like... maybe this is our chance to make it different?"

"Oh, sure, now you think you can change the future," Sam said, teasing. "I think that's a very good chance."

Peter hid behind his hair some more. Mostly out of habit than anything else. "I could change time. Sorta."

The urge to push Peter's hair out of his face was great, but Sam managed to restrain himself. "What do you mean?"

"This weekend," Peter said. "It was one of my powers. I could stop time."

"Seriously?" Sam said, grinning. "Wow. Was it as awesome as it sounds?"

He wanted to be nothing but emo. He really did.

Still...

"Yeah," he admitted, finally tucking his hair behind his ear.

"Well, then I hope that's a part of the future that won't change," Sam said. Anything that got Peter to cheer up a little could stay.

"It was weird," Peter admitted. "Some of my powers I had, and others I didn't. Like I could turn invisible, and I could fly, but I couldn't unlock doors."

"Maybe you're right. Maybe that was the future that would have happened if you and Nathan and Claire hadn't come here," Sam said.

"I hope so," Peter said. "There's no way I could go through that again."

"You won't," Sam said firmly. "There's no way I'm letting you go through that."

Peter gave him a small smile. "Thank you. It means a lot."

"Hey, I know that if I saw the future and thought that Dean might die, you'd help me stop it too," Sam said. "That's what best friends are for."

"It's not even a question," Peter said. "Absolutely I would."

"And it's not a question for me that I'd help you too," Sam replied. "Just remember, it's going to be okay."

"Repeating it," Peter said with a nod. "Good. Keep up with that."

"I will," Sam promised. "I don't want you looking like you did when you came in again."

"Remember when magic was the biggest of our worries?" Peter asked. It was an attempt at humor, honest.

"We'll just have to get back to that," Sam said, smiling softly.

"Do my best," Peter said. Oddly enough, that almost made him lose it again. He leaned forward, raking both hands through his hair as he tried to get it under control.

"Hey," Sam said quietly, before scooting close to Peter and trying to pull him into a hug. "You will do your best, and that's why everything's going to be all right."
