WHO: Sam Winchester & Anne
WHAT: Talking & such
WHEN: Three days after she left
WARNINGS: Don't think so...?

Anne had invited Sam over. She needed to talk to him. Having had a chance to recover, at least a little, thanks to Psyche, it was time. It wasn't in her power to fix the wallpaper, but at least it wasn't reacting as much to her anymore. Ares had fixed the staircase, the bookshelves and the couch, so at least things were presentable.

As for herself, she'd managed to be upright enough to take a shower. Her hair hung loose, the light curl to it something she wasn't used to. And yes, she might have been just a little vain, staring into the full length mirror to see if she was changing yet. She wasn't, at least as far as she could see, but she didn't look too bad, either. Not as pale and gross as when she'd left Sam's, at any rate.

When he knocked, she opened the door, dressed in a pair of jeans and a red tank top. It was the most 'dressed' she'd been since she'd left.

"Hi."

	"I'll have to thank her, after I apologize to her." Sam remarked, grinning a little bit. He wondered about the chocolate, but if it was making Anne feel better? He'd buy Hershey, Pennsylvania for her. His hand reached out and smoothed a lock of her hair behind her ear. "I've missed you too. You're feeling better?" He was desperate to know.

	It was automatic. He touched her and her eyes drifted closed and she swayed, just a little, into his touch. She closed the distance between them and even though she wasn't sure he wanted her to, she slipped her arms around his waist and hugged him. "I am. Much. I haven't been sick at all today," she said, tilting her head back so she could see him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He pulled her close, and bent his head down to smell her hair. Tears sort of bit at his eyes, as he kept them closed.

"I'm glad. I don't want you to be sick." Sam murmured to her, holding her as closely as he thought was safe. "Oh, Anne."

His family would just have to understand, he thought. Sam loved this woman beyond reason. His hand drifted to her hip, then hesitantly to her belly. He kissed her forehead tenderly.

Hearing Sam say her name like that made tears spring to her own eyes. The tenderness with which he held her, touched her and kissed her forehead brought her close to actual crying. She knew she didn't deserve him.

"Sam," she whispered, opening her eyes to look at him, "I'm so sorry. For everything. All of it. I didn't mean-" She shook her head and looked down at the hand on her abdomen with a tender smile. Placing her own over it, she continued in a whisper, "I love you."

"I know." He whispered, into her hair. "I know, baby."

He held her close for another moment, hand splayed wide and protective over her belly.

"I love you, too." He sighed and leaned back as if to study her. If even she didn't want to marry him, she was still the person he loved the most in the world, outside of his blood family. He loved her, and their little family. "Is there anything I can get you? Are you hungry? We could get some lunch. Anything you want."

His protective streak kicked in like a flame from lighter and he was back to hovering and looming.

Anne started shaking her head as she pulled back, too. "I'm not hungry. Not right now. I just- I wanted to tell you something."

Taking a deep breath that was very shaky, she took both of his hands in hers. "What you saw me saying, about marriage? Had nothing to do with you. I wasn't talking about you, or marrying you. And in my haste to save myself from heartache, I hurt you. Again. It's not marriage that scares me, Sam. It's that you'll find something better, or want something better or feel like you're missing out on something better-" And here she started to ramble, "- and I don't want you to feel trapped. I want you to be happy. I promised Dean that you'd be happy and watching you go would break me. I couldn't function. The last three days proved that to me and I-"

There were tears and she couldn't stop them. "I would marry you, Sam. Tomorrow, yesterday, five years from now..." She shrugged and dropped his hands to wipe the tears from her cheeks. "You're a part of me like no one else has ever been."

He watched her in silence, unmoving except to squeeze his fingers around hers when she faltered in her speech. Somehow, he couldn't bring the right words to the front of his brain. He couldn't say what he'd been dying to say since he saw her. So..he said,"Okay." and nodded. Sam bit his lip and closed his eyes and drew her close.

"Shh, it's okay. Everything's gonna be okay." He believed that it would be, with his whole heart.

So much for not feeling ill. Anne let him draw her to him once again, where she felt the safest. Where she'd always felt the safest. She breathed him in, her head resting against his chest, her eyes closed. Her palms were flat against his back and she nodded, repeating what he'd said.

"Okay." She even nodded, as if that would help. There wasn't anything else to say. But she trusted him to believe him when he said everything would be okay.

	"Want to get out of here for awhile?" He asked. "We could go downtown and go shopping or something." Sam was good boyfriend, and he knew how to show that. He also wanted away from the creepy wallpaper. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Or something. Anne wasn't sure how to tell Sam that she had never, not once, been shopping for fun. she knew that women did that, she just wasn't one of them. It was why her wardrobe consisted of... well, of a borrowed red tank top and jeans and his t-shirt and sweats at the moment. Previously, clothing came with a thought, closet not needed.

Biting her lip to stem her nervousness, she nodded. "We could do that." Pause. "I've never been. Shopping."

She barely knew how to do her hair without waving her hand. It was kind of ridiculous.

	"Really? Okay. Um, well let's see if we can fix that." Sam was shocked. Girls shopped like it was their religion. "You're probably going to need roomier clothes soon, anyway." He smiled, hand going like a magnet to the place where their child waited to be born. "You want to put your hair up? It's kind of windy out there. You have a jacket, too, right?"

Anne nodded at the obvious shock on his face. A smile came immediately after when she looked down at his hand on her stomach. Touching his with both of hers, she felt her cheeks flush and she took a deep breath.

"I'm going to get so big," she said in a warning tone, turning slightly to the side and pulling his hand out to a distance that was probably, slightly, exaggerated. "Like this."

Unable to stop the giggles, she shook her head and moved toward the stairs. "I'll find something better." What she found was a sweater of Ares' that wouldn't have even fit Sam, but she did put her hair up. As proof of feeling better, she practically bounced down the stairs again, beaming when she saw Sam waiting. "There."
