Title: Winchester Love Part 7B Author: myguys_sam-dean Rating: R Characters: Sam/Abby, Dean/Kylee, Bobby Disclaimer: I don't own the boys, I just play with 'em. Summary: Written for fanfic100 prompt #74 - Dark. Electricity goes out at Bobby's. Abby's bad memories of a big secret is triggered.
The storm was starting to pick up outside. The simple raindrops had been joined with thunder and lightening. The electricity went out. "Sam?" some man called in the darkness and Abby screamed as she sat up, held the covers to her chin, and started to violently shake Sam.
"Wha-" Sam started to wake up.
"Sam?" the man asked again.
"Hey, Bobby," Sam rubbed his eyes. "What's up?"
"Electricity went out. I brought a flashlight that I'll leave on your dresser here in case you need it."
"Okay, Bobby," Sam was still struggling to get awake. "Thanks."
"And Abby," Bobby's voice was familiar to her now in the dark, "Sorry I scared ya, darlin'. I'll see you in the morning."
"Goodnight," was all Abby could think of to say to him.
*** Abby slowly lowered herself back into bed. Sam moved in closer to her and found out that she was shaking. He was instantly awake and peering through the darkness at Abby. "Honey, are you alright?"
She nodded but from what Sam could see, he knew she wasn't. He circled his arms around her and drew her in. Tears fell on his chest. "Bobby didn't mean to scare you. You know that, right?"
"Yeah," her voice was very shaky. "I like Bobby."
"So what is it then?"
"I just have a big secret and it makes me react strangely sometimes." Sam decided to accept that as an excuse.
"What situations are bad for you?" he was trying to figure out a way to keep her from getting that scared again without actually asking her what her secret was. He thought she'd tell him when she was comfortable enough to.
"Sleeping in a house with a man in it . . . tiny babies . . . " her voice drifted off.
"Do you feel safe sleeping with me?" Sam was still fishing for ways to help.
"Yes. I do." Kylee was quiet. "I never thought I would feel that way. It is only because you befriended me first and didn't push a romantic relationship."
"I'm sorry if our intimacy in the scrap yard brought back bad memories for you," Sam felt just awful that he could have brought something bad up to the surface just by loving her.
"You don't need to be sorry for that, unless I goofed it up somehow and you don't ever want a repeat of it."
"I don't want to scare you away. I want to help us," Sam told her. "It isn't just you and me separately anymore, Abby. If something scares you or makes you uncomfortable, I want to know about it. If you think telling me part of your secret would help, I'm here to listen and try to help you through it. Nothing could change the way I feel about you. After all, you're willing to accept hunting."
"There are some things darker than hunting," her voice sounded so desperate. "There are things that should be killed that aren't supernatural."
After Abby was silent for a minute, Sam asked, "Things like what?"
