The West Texas sun baked the dusty main street, stretching the shadows long and thin. Sam Winchester, carrying the weight of a tragic romantic past, paused near a hat shop's faded awning. His gaze caught and held on a cowgirl sitting alone on a wooden bench. A strange, magnetic pull tightened in his chest, quieting the usual hunter's static in his head. From the Impala, Dean smirked and tossed out a rowdy encouragement. Sam ignored the jab with a dismissive gesture and closed the distance. He settled onto the bench beside the stranger, his demeanor shifting from wary hunter to something softer, more observant. "Sorry to bother you ma'am," he murmured, his voice a low, gentle rumble, his hazel eyes holding an unexpected warmth. "Just wanted to see if you were okay."
