Library [02/18]

After spending the previous evening drinking, getting into a fight, having quality time in jail, and finding out that Chuck Bass was actually kind of human, Sam was hoping for a quiet day in the library that would be kind to his mild hangover. He was never, ever drinking on a Tuesday night again. Probably.

Sam turned red as his mind went to a combination of Peter and handcuffs. "Um, no, although thanks for that thought," he said weakly. "Actually, I wanted to ask you how much you know about guns."

"Hopefully this isn't because things went really bad last night and you're looking for a way to tell me," Peter replied.

Sam rolled his eyes at Peter. "No, it's not. I've just been thinking about your powers a lot lately. Sometimes I wonder if maybe it would be good for you to know how to defend yourself without them. I mean, what if you're in a situation someday where using your powers will do more harm than good?" Not that that was a scenario of his Peter-related nightmares or anything.

"Is that scenario likely to happen?" Peter asked, just because Sam sometimes had his own prophecy/destiny thing going.

"I don't know specifically, if that's what you're asking," Sam said. "It's more of a general concern. And one that I actually feel like I can help with."

"What'd you have in mind?" Peter asked.

"Teaching you how to use a gun," Sam said simply. "We can go to the gun range and I'll take you through all the steps and everything you need to know. I know you're a big fan of non-violent defense, but sometimes, there's no other option."

Peter actually knew how to use a gun. His father had taught him when he'd taken the Petrelli boys on hunting trips. Peter could mention that to Sam. On the other hand -

"All the steps? Like hands-on training?"

Sam smiled and turned a little red again. "Very hands-on," he promised.

Hmmm - mention that he already knew how to use a gun or agree to an outing that involved being close to Sam?

Yeah, no contest.

"Sounds good," Peter told him.

"Really?" Sam asked. "You don't have to if you don't want to. I just thought...I want to help, and this is something I know really well."

"Why not?" Peter said. "Especially if it means that much to you. When were you thinking?"

"Whenever you want," Sam said. "I'm not in a rush or anything, I just wanted to make sure I brought it up while I was thinking about it."

"Maybe over break?" Peter suggested. "When you won't have classes distracting you?"

"I like that idea. We won't have anything distracting either of us," he said.

"Except maybe each other," Peter pointed out with a grin.

"I won't let that stop me from teaching you," Sam assured him.

"Maybe we should get some of the distraction out of the way right now," Peter suggested. He leaned across the counter to give Sam a kiss.

"Good idea," Sam murmured, closing the space between them. He'd only been at it for a few moments when he felt something smack against the back of his head, and he pulled away. "Hey, ow!"

Peter pulled back in confusion. "What happened?"

"Something hit me," Sam said. Looking down, he spotted a small book sitting on the floor, and picked it up, glaring at it.

"Want me to kiss it better?" Peter asked, having no idea this was only going to make the problem worse.

"You can kiss me, and maybe it'll feel better," Sam said, because the head smack had clearly made him a little slow.

Peter moved in to kiss Sam again.

And moved back when something whapped him on the head. "Ow!"

"Are you okay?" Sam asked, looking to see if someone else had snuck into the library when they weren't paying attention."
