Library [12/10]

It had been months since Sam had been in the kind of good mood that hit him on Tuesday, and he was enjoying every moment of it. It didn't matter that he'd woken up and found little candy canes in his drawers. It didn't matter that his morning walks with Scout were getting colder every day. He was in love, and that made everything all right. He knew he'd see Dinah at the play performance tonight, but maybe, if he hoped really hard, she would have enough time to come in and see him today. That was the thought that carried him through as he got settled in for the day.

"With Dinah," Sam said, laughing. "I know, I can't believe it either. But we've been working on the play together and...I don't know, we just connected somehow. It's hard to explain."

Claire's jaw met the floor. "You are in love with Dinah?"

She felt betrayed. Dinah was her roommate, one of the first friends she made in Fandom and one of the people who consoled her when she found out about Peter.

"And she feels the same way?"

"She does, yeah," Sam said, his smile fading a little when he caught her expression. "You don't look happy about this."

"That's because I'm not," Claire said. "Did you just forget about Peter? He's dead so he doesn't matter any more? I thought you still loved him. But five weeks and not only are you done mourning, you're in love with someone else?"

"I didn't forget about Peter," Sam said, shaking his head. "I'm just moving forward. I think Peter would want that, and that's what Dinah wants too. She makes me as happy as Peter did."

"Yes, Peter would want you to be happy," she admitted. "But, Sam, don't you think this is kind of fast? I mean, you and Peter were together for a long time."

"I wish I could explain it, but I can't. All I know is what I feel," Sam said. "I love Dinah, and she loves me. You should be happy that we're both happy."

"I can't be," Claire said, shaking her head. "It's just too soon. Peter hasn't been gone that long. It just feels... wrong."

"You just don't understand because you're not in love like we are," Sam said with a scowl. "If Jon loved you the way Dinah loves me, you'd get it."

"Do you even hear yourself?" Claire asked. "You were in love with Peter for over a year. He's barely been dead a month and now and you Dinah have some epic love? I can't do this right now. I gotta go."

Because if she didn't, she would probably end up in tears.

"Fine, go," Sam said with a sigh. "If you come to your senses and decide to be happy for me, you can come back then."

"Don't hold your breath for that," Claire snapped, turning to storm out of the library.
