With a soft sigh and a tiny smile, Shannon awoke to the sight of the morning sun peeking into the windows of the room in which she'd fallen asleep, spooning Sam as per their usual arrangement. It had been a cold night and, she realized as she stretched, it was an even colder morning. She was dimly aware of a blanket she didn't remember having the night before and thought maybe the Doctor had given it to them after she had fallen asleep for her shift. She was also dimly aware of the warmth of Sam against her back, still holding her close to keep her warm. There was snow falling, much to her surprise, visible through the window and--

Hold on. Time out. Something didn't quite add up. Shannon shook her head slightly and blinked rapidly, trying to get her head. She felt almost as out of it as she had when she'd first arrived her, although not quite as such. But something felt wrong. Sam felt amazing up against her but...

Shannon lifted an end of the blanket and peeked underneath. Okay, then... Yeah, that was what felt different for sure. Skin on skin. It had been a really long day, yesterday. She'd been hungover and exhausted and, well, horny, so it almost didn't surprise her that she'd slept with Sam before passing out for the night. Except for the part where she didn't actually remember doing it.

"Sam...are you up?" she whispered hoarsely, elbowing him slightly as she snuggled back into him. "Did we...? I feel all weird...like the morning I got here. I must've been really fucking tired..."

Not that she minded, of course. It was Sam. She had wanted it to be Sam, if she was honest, although she'd never admit that out loud - ever - considering the whole thing with Dean in the showers, but... There it was. She just wish that she could fucking remember it. Shit, what a waste.

The crashing painting made him jump. Panic was rising and he didn't know what to do. Had he slept with this woman? Why would he do that? It wasn't that she wasn't hot, but he wasn't going to be Kara and make their marriage even more complicated than it already was. He didn't need something else tho hide from her either. He wouldn't. He couldn't. Could he?

Sam stopped the sliding painting with his bare foot and decided he'd use it as a shield. Unfortunately it didn't keep the cold out when he covered up his bare necessities.

He held out his free hand in surrender. "Woah there. Just slow down. I'm Anders. Sam Anders."

Slow down? He wanted her to slow down?! Was he on crack?! Anders. The fucking new guy? She hadn't told him where she lived, no way. She didn't trust anyone as far as she could throw them, with very few exceptions to the rule, but she hadn't even met that Anders guy; she'd talked to him on the journals and he'd seemed nice enough but--

"What the fuck?!" she shrieked at him. "Did you--? Did we--? Jesus fucking Christ, dude, when I said I wanted to learn to play your stupid game, this isn't what I fucking meant!"

And still she felt sick at the idea. Especially if she'd been really out of it when they - if! she reminded herself as a last ray of hope - had done whatever they'd done to get themselves under one blanket, freaking cuddling, completely naked. "Where are my clothes?" she snapped, setting her jaw. This wasn't cute, it wasn't funny, and Shannon was angry now. How dare he and who the hell did he think he was, anyway?!

"Look, lady," he tried again, the panic rising further. This really didn't look good. "I don't know what the frak happened last night. I was in the gym, trying to get some shut eye. Now I'm here."

Gods it was cold. Very, very cold. Worse than yesterday kind of cold. "So, I don't know where either of our clothes are."

Not only that, he didn't know where any of his stuff was, including his knife and stash of food.

Sam pushed the door to the museum open and slipped inside, rubbing his hands together. He pushed the desk back into place and moved towards Shannon's torch, blowing it out. He'd woken up to find Shannon gone, wondering if she'd left at daybreak because she was tired of always having to convince him not to go along. He had gotten the impression yesterday morning as she'd left for the Thrift shop that she'd been slightly annoyed by constantly reassuring him she'd be fine on her own.

After going out to relieve himself he'd found the morning was colder than any of the other days since they'd been there and her torch was low so he picked it up and started moving towards the back where there was a particular oil painting that he'd already noticed had been ripped and would be perfect for torch fodder. However, when he turned the corner he found Shannon clutching a blanket around her and a naked man holding a painting in front of his waist.

Sam froze, his eyebrow raising in surprise before his face fell into one of confusion. "What the hell?"

"Oh whatever," Shannon spat at Anders, reflexively moving to take another step back until she realized there was nowhere left to go. Yeah fucking right he went to sleep in the gym and woke up inside the museum. She knew that people woke up in weird places practically every day, but she and Sam always, always barricaded that fucking front door. No way could the sick fucks running this place have gotten him in through the damn window in the far back room.

She heard Sam's voice and for the first time since she'd scrambled up, she let her sights off Anders to look back at Sam. "I just woke up next to this guy naked and I've never even met him much less slept with him. And he fucking took my clothes! Where were you?" she asked, furrowing her brow. "Didn't you hear him come in?" she asked, moving toward Sam and further away from Anders, going back to eying the intruder suspiciously.

This was now worse. She was being completely unreasonable, which Anders could understand, but at the same time, he was completely innocent. At least that was what he kept reassuring himself with. No way did he go and have a sleepfrak.

"I didn't do anything. Gods damn it, you gotta believe me!" The floor wasn't the warmest place to be, especially since the warmth on the floor where they had been was now dissipating. Now all he had was a stretched piece of canvass to warm himself.

The panic in Shannon's voice instantly pushed some of his confusion back as Sam moved forward, putting himself between Shannon and the stranger. "I woke up and you were gone," Sam said, quickly, thinking back and trying to remember when they'd switched being lookouts. He couldn't remember. In fact the exact time that the sirens had stopped and he'd drifted off was hazy. He felt his stomach drop as he realized he'd failed to keep his promise to her. "I thought you'd left at daybreak," he said.

He looked at the man in front of him, channeling his guilt into anger. "You'd better hope you didn't. Who are you and how'd you get in?" His face screwed up into one of disgust. "And where are your clothes?"

Shannon shook her head and shrunk back a little further as Sam put himself between she and Anders. "No, you never woke me up for my shift," she insisted. Great. Sam had fallen asleep on his shift and hadn't bothered to wake her up when he'd been feeling too tired to continue. Her mind briefly processed the fact that usually the Doctor stayed with them and she'd been really too tired to think about it before, but hadn't he been there, too? Had all three of them fallen asleep?

She looked back at Anders when Sam started addressing the other man. That was what she wanted to know, too. How had he gotten in and where were his clothes?

Anders, despite his better judgment, started laughing nervously. "You gotta be frakking kidding me." The laughing died quickly as he looked both of them in the eyes. "I don't remember ever being here. Where are we?"

Finally feeling the disadvantage of staying on the floor like he was, he gathered up his frame and sat up pressing himself up with both his hands and leaving the painting to rest on his pelvis and legs.

This wasn't the reaction that Sam would expect from someone who was guilty. Not only that, but how the hell would the guy had been able to get Shannon untangled from Sam and undressed without either him or her knowing it. If he'd been knocked out or drugged somehow, he'd understand it, but even after the exhaustion of the day before he didn't think he would've have felt someone pulling Shannon away from him.

He regarded Sam on the floor again, catching the use of frak and figuring this must be the cage's newest addition, the other Sam. He hadn't been around long enough to even know where Shannon was staying, since Sam knew how carefully Shannon gave out that information.

"Shannon," he said, his voice low. "I think he's telling the truth. Even if I was asleep, there's no way I would've let you go without...force." He sighed. "I think this might be an experiment and yours and..." He nodded towards Anders. "His expense."

As much as Shannon probably should've continued to listen to and process the entire thing that Sam had said first, her focus and attention stopped with "there's no way I would've let you go." It was a small piece of the whole picture, but Sam wasn't using the same gruff voice he'd been using before and the accusation in his tone was gone, so she pursed her lips together against an inappropriate and ill-timed smile, allowing herself just a second to savor those words.

But then, she looked back at Sam, away from the man on the floor. "I thought that the experiments were, you know, scary," she said awkwardly, pulling the blanket more tightly around herself and shifting her weight from one foot to the other. The floor was cold beneath her feet when she moved and she gasped. Oh shit, that other guy must be fucking freezing his nuts off. "Fuck, hang on," she said quickly and retreated from the room entirely. If Sam thought that it was an experiment and he wouldn't have let her go, she had to trust that. So, then, it was time to rifle through the Doctor's things for another blanket until they found the other Sam's clothes.

"Experiment?" The previous day's readings and conversations were catching up to him. "More like a sick joke."

Thank the gods, at least he was starting to wonder less if he had done something tremendously stupid. As he sat up further, he unconsciously rubbed his left hand over his right forearm where his giant tattoo was. "I'm, uh, I'm Sam, by the way. Anders. Sam Anders."

As always, he sized up the other guy. He was actually about Anders' height as far as he could tell, and could probably throw a right hook that would feel like a brick to the face. The mental notes concluded with the mental note that he should avoid that fight, because that's one he might not win.

Sam's brow furrowed as Shannon suddenly left the room, leaving him with a naked Anders. He shifted his gaze to the floor to the right of him instead of looking directly at the man in front of him. "Uh, yeah," he said, feeling bad for the guy. "I guess whoever is in charge has a sick sense of humor."

He raised his hand in greeting, but didn't move any closer. "I'm Sam Winchester. I think we talked over the journals."

He dropped his hand to his side. "You said you were in the gym?" He asked, not sure what else to say until Shannon got back. He wondered if she was putting on some clothes, or grabbing something for Anders to wear. Or both.

While pawing through the Doctor's stash - and only feeling slightly guilty, considering the situation at hand - it occurred to Shannon that maybe she ought to get dressed. Her backpack was right there, after all, just across the room. Only, when she thought about it, the idea of getting dressed in the main room was completely unappealing. It would definitely be her luck the Dean or the Doctor would walk in when she was in the middle of the process and get a show she wasn't prepared to give. Again. Fuck, this morning was awful so far...

Still, after snatching up one of the blankets neatly folded in the Doctor's little area, Shannon rifled through her own bag and took out a pair of jeans, the hoodie--

There were clothes in the bag that weren't hers. Shannon's brow furrowed. They were men's clothes and she couldn't remember if they were Dean's and he'd put them in there after the shower - no, because he'd put them back on himself, idiot - oh! Abandoning the blanket and putting it back with the Doctor's things, Shannon took out the men's clothing as well as undergarments for herself and headed back into the room, clutching the blanket that was wrapped around herself tightly to keep it from falling. She'd change in another room in a few minutes.

"Uh, I found these..." she announced sheepishly as she re-entered the room, holding up the outfit that wasn't her own. "Are they yours...?" Her eyes were back on Anders again.

The gym, where he had been playing around on the courts until the sirens finally stopped. "Yep, waiting out the sirens." Then it got a bit more vague to him. There was some smoking, a bit of uncomfortable alone time, then he woke up here. At least he remembered that much.

Upon the woman's return, Sam hoisted up his painting a bit more. The clothes she pulled out, a mix of mostly grays and greens, looked familiar. "Yeah," Sam sheepishly answered. "Those look like mine."

He wondered if anything else of his was around, but for now, he'd let that wait until they weren't having this conversation mostly in the nude. "And for what its worth... I'm sorry I scared you like that."

Sam shook his head at Ander's reply. He had no idea how whoever was pulling the strings around this place could move people around so easily.

Shannon reappeared with extra clothes and he looked at Sam as he confirmed they were his. "At least they're not back at the gym," Sam said, thinking about how awkward that could've been for Anders.

Sam looked back at Shannon and waited for a reaction. He could only imagine what she'd been feeling when she woke up next to some random naked guy.

"Should we...give you a moment?" Sam asked, nodding towards Anders' clothes.

And then it was Shannon's turn to feel sheepish. And stupid. She felt a blush creeping up into her cheeks and she gave Anders a small, embarrassed smile as she moved forward to hand him his things. "I'm sorry I called you a perv," she said quietly. ...and then, the stupidity of the whole situation hit her and she laughed. Rubbing her forehead with the hand she'd been using to hold his clothes, Shannon shook her head. "I'm Shannon, by the way," she said and failed to keep herself from letting out another snort of laughter. "Uh, nice to meet you." The laughter was mostly her nerves, but she couldn't help herself.

When Sam asked if the two of them should give Anders a moment to get dressed, her face reddened even more. Making conversation with a strange, good looking naked guy. In front of Sam. While wearing nothing under the blanket she had wrapped around herself. ...awkward...

"Uh," Anders awkwardly shuddered, starting to shake again. "Yyeah that'd be great." He noted that it would be awkward for all parties involved, unless this other Sam liked men, for them to just stand there and watch. Then it would just be extra awkward for Anders.

Sam's look of concern curved up into a smile as Shannon laughed. She gave a soft snort and he couldn't help but feel a small huff of laughter escape his own lips. He exchanged a glance with Shannon, relieved that she was able to laugh about it instead of getting upset over it.

He saw her face redden slightly with embarrassment and he found it a little hard to look away from her and back at Anders as he started to talk. He shifted his gaze over the Anders when he heard the slight chatter in his voice. "Yeah, sure thing," Sam said, moving towards the door. He waited for Shannon to go through the door first, his eyes landing on her bare shoulders and remembering the first night he'd come to the museum and how she'd peeled off her sweater revealing the tank top below.

"You okay?" He asked, ducking his head and lowering his voice so that Anders wouldn't hear.

Shannon hesitated for a moment, if only because she was still caught between shock and embarrassment. "Oh! Yeah, sorry. Jesus..." she breathed, again with a light laugh in her tone as she winkled her nose at herself for being so suddenly childish about the whole thing. It wasn't her fault and it wasn't the other Sam's fault, either that they'd woken up together like that. They were both adults, right? They could move past the whole thing. ...right?

When Sam moved toward the door, Shannon headed out of the room. She looked back over at Sam and reached around him with one hand - the other holding her clothes against her chest because she hadn't thought to tuck the blanket to hold itself in place - to pull the door shut so Anders could get dressed again in privacy. "Yeah, I'm fine," she said, blushing again and shaking her head. "I just...feel kind of retarded," she admitted.

Then she chewed her bottom lip and shifted her weight from one foot to the other. Awkward pause. Awesome. "Uh, I should..." she let her voice trail off as she held the blanket in place with the hand she'd used to close the door and raised her clothes up a bit with the other hand before nodding back toward the door across the hall from the room she'd woken in.

She meant to say she ought to get dressed, but she couldn't make herself actually say it, even as she took a few steps backward toward the empty room in question. Almost as though she was waiting for Sam to stop her from doing so, even if that was beyond stupid. At that realization, Shannon pursed her lips and blushed yet again.

"So, yeah...uh, I'll just...be a second," she said before backing into the room and closing the door behind herself. She spared herself a moment to close her eyes and drop her head back against the door. "Idiot..." she whispered at herself before finally getting to the actual task at hand and dressing herself.

In no time flat, Anders was at his clothes, tugging them on, trying to get his balls warm before the froze off.

This was nearly too much. Experiments with needles and scalpels were one thing, social experiments were another. Anders had his fill of social experiments when it came to testing a new life in the fleet. He'd tried living with all the crap on New Caprica. Even being married to Kara seemed like an experiment in enduring pain.

All life after Caprica's bombing seemed a bit unreal. As if being a pro athlete wasn't enough of a dream.

These things all rushed through his head as he tugged on his pants and shirt, quickly followed by his shoes for his cold feet.

Sam had started to reach for the door at the same moment Shannon moved forward to pull it shut and his hand brushed her arm as she reached for the door. He stilled, swallowing and standing a little straighter than his usual slouch as she pulled back. Shannon blushed as she said she was fine and Sam couldn't help but think that the bit of color in her cheeks only managed to make her look even prettier than usual. "Don't," he said, shaking his head. "I mean, you don't have anything to be embarrassed about." He meant with the situation, after all it wasn't like she'd gotten drunk and woken up naked with a complete stranger, but the moment he said it he was worried it had come across as more of a comment on her physique.

There was an awkward pause in which Sam tried extra hard to maintain eye contact, but couldn't think of anything else to say that wouldn't come across as suddenly inappropriate as that last comment had. The awkward way in which she started talking and then trailed off made him wonder if she thought he was staring. "Oh, yeah, right," Sam said, nodding as she started backing towards the door behind her. He glanced downwards when she raised her clothes up, reflex momentarily overriding logic and then he was back to maintaining careful eye contact. She seemed to hesitate and he wondered if he should apologize or explain, but mainly he knew anything he tried to do would lead to further awkwardness. Instead he gave her a small smile and raised his eyebrows. "I'll wait out here," he said slowly. "You know, keep watch."

Shannon blushed again and Sam felt responsible for making this whole situation even more mortifying than it was already. He shot her another forced smile before she closed the door and it fell away into a frustrated frown. "I'll keep watch," he said, making fun of himself and shaking his head. "Nice one, Sam."
