Two Worlds Collide

Arriving

"Ok, get out of the car, I'll pick you up in a few weeks." dad said while he's driving us to school.

I just thought to myself.. great another f*cking school, another f*cking start and in a few weeks, we're out again.

"Come on Sam, you're going to be late."
I said while Dean was already on his way to his first period with some random chick he just met few minutes ago.

"But why, why can we go with dad? Why he's always drives away and leave us here." said Sam after he catch up with me.

He was freshly ten but had lot of questions. And while I was looking after him, cause I was oldest and it was my responsibility, sometimes even I loved them so much.. I wish I could just leave it all behind me and left.
I mean Dean is just five years younger than me, but still five years older then Sam, so he can take care of him as good as I do.
But I never said out loud. Dad was precise and strict but all he wanted for us to be save and together and I keep that in my mind.

"Sam, you know that what dad does is pretty dangerous. And he must do it alone or with uncle Bobby, so no one gets hurt. You're to young to do it and I don't want to have same childhood as I did. So what you say we go to you classroom and after school we pick up some dinner and movies?" I looked at him and knew he's sad, but this is the closest to normal he can get right now, so he don't have to study everything alone in a secret, while waiting on a dad in a motel room.

After a while, he smiled and said..
"Can't we watch some superhero movie, later?"

"We can watch anything you want." I replied.

I took Sam to his class, make sure he's okay and head to the class on my own.
Suprisingly I haven't problem to find it, I felt like I was somehow drown to it. I know it doesn't make sense, but trust me... It was like this is it, this is my class and maybe the last one, finally.

I went inside and first what I saw was metal head in the back living in his own world and empty seat next to him. Mr. Saltzman hold me to introduce me and send me to take that empty seat.
No one actually notice me or lift up their heads from their books. Only the metal head look straight at me and smile when I sat next to him.

"Metallica, huh?" he said looking at my shirt with straight interest.

"What? What are you talking about?"

"Your shirt. You wearing their tour shirt from 81'."

"Yeah, I mean that was their greatest tour so far and this is great reminder. By the way I'm Lexi." I said looking to his eyes, cause god damn, they were beautiful like little chocolate buttons.

"Eddie. You've must be like eight or something." he looked me in the eyes too and starts grinning from ear to ear.

"Nice to meet you Eddie. And ten actually, but I still had radio and lot of time. Now you can wipe that smirk from your face and focus on history with Mr Saltzman." I said smiling to myself.

"I'm focusing." he said while still looking at me.

After a few classes and some music breaks I went to a cafeteria to finally find Sammy and Dean to look how they're doing.
Dean was in the middle of the girl group and enjoying their attention, like he used to. And Sammy was sitting alone with a book as always, so I went straight to him.

"Hey, how was you're classes little brother?"

"Ok, I guess and I am not little anymore Lexi."

"Ok, sorry. You didn't touch your food either Sammy, I made that sandwich specially for you. You love PJ's." I was worried, Sammy was always loner, but now he was sad all the time and didn't want to eat. I need to figure something out.

"I'm not hungry, you know."

"Tell you what, if you eat it whole, we can have some ice cream after school, before we pick the movie." I'm hoping this is the right motivation... And I think it is, cause he smiled and with ok started to eat.

I was looking around, cause I wasn't hungry anymore and immediatelly found that grinning face just looking at me and thinking what he can do.

Suddenly someone came up to me and Sam and that grinning face fade away.

"Hey you must be new here. Welcome I'm Jason and I'm basketball team leader here."

"Hey." I looked at Eddie and then at Sam.

"Why is a beautiful girl looking like you wearing shitty clothes and staring at town freak Munson."

I looked at Jason, stand up to face him and say "What did you just say?"

He was standing against me, play with that f*cking ball and repeat "I said, why are you staring at that freak?!"

I caught the ball that he just threw in the air and pinned him to the nearest wall. "You want that say it again?"

"Are you f*cking crazy? What's your problem b*tch?"

"Apparently your attitude, dibshit." I punched him square in the jawline. When he went down I blinked at Sammy and left the cafeteria, without hesitation or look back.

I went straight to the football field and more, till I came across some place to sit in the middle of the woods. Take my sketchbook with headphones from a bag and start blasting Enter Sandman in my ears.
