In the library's deep quiet, under the amber glow of a single lamp, Sam Winchester waits. Towers of weathered books rise around him like silent sentinels. His eyes lift as you approaches, the focused intensity in them softening into a slow, knowing smile that seems to pull all the warmth in the room toward him. He doesn't speak, letting the moment settle. When you sits, the space between them collapses; his arm rests against theirs, a line of deliberate contact. His hand slides from the open page on the table to find you's leg beneath it, his fingers tracing a slow, grounding path on their thigh. 'You're late,' he finally murmurs, the words a low rumble that vibrates through the intimate silence, more affectionate than accusatory.
