Sin City (3x04)

~A couple days after Bad Day At Black Rock~

Sam was seated in the kitchen at Bobby's house, he was looking through books about demon deals. Suddenly, Tanner walked through the kitchen back door in her waitress outfit. Sam looked up at her and smiled.

"Hey," Sam greeted her as she hung her jacket on the coat rack. Tanner turned to him and gave him a charming smile.

"Sam, what are you doing up so late?" Tanner asked as she placed her hands on her hips. "Where's the Mr. & Mrs. and baby Winchester?"

"Uh, Shia and Dean are upstairs asleep, Lynx is asleep too...well...not for long." Sam said with a light chuckle. Tanner smiled at him before she sat at the table with him. "So, uh, I heard that you're looking for schools to attend?"

"Yeah, I am. I want to go to a good science program. I've found a school, actually."

"Yeah? Where?"

"Well, it's outside this state....and this country." Tanner mumbled now getting very interested with her bracelet she'd gotten a while ago. Sam looked at her with wide eyes, he couldn't believe she was considering a school so out of reach. "Sam-"

"So, that's it? You're just going to apply for a school so far away, where I can't even visit you?" Sam said, in a way he was hurt by this.

"I'm trying to better myself, Sam-"

"It's dangerous out there, Tan."

"I'm no safer there than I am here. There will always be danger, Sam, I'm a big girl. I can handle it. I know how to control my powers now...I will be fine." Tanner explained to Sam as she walked in the living room to sit on the couch. Sam followed after her, he was trying to figure things out.

"What about me? Us? You're just going to leave that behind."

"Sam, I'm not saying that I'm leaving yet, but I'm thinking about it. School there starts in a month, I have two weeks to think. I just- I don't want to lose you as a boyfriend, but I have to do this."

"Boyfriend?" Sam asked with a small smile, as if he didn't hear anything at all as soon as she said the B word.

"Yeah, I mean, we are together, right? Every time you're here we'd go out if I'm not working."

"You're right. We- we could be become e-mail pen pals if you decide to go, I don't want to be in the way." Sam said suddenly getting sad a little again, he felt like there was so much on his plate. His girlfriend leaving, a new baby niece, Dean's deal. It was a bit much.

"Yeah, we could. I'd email you as much as possible. So, I'd like you to keep me updated." Tanner told him as she pulled the ponytail out of hair, letting her beautiful brown hair to fall down her back. She looked at Sam after a small amount of silence, she smiled at him before leaning in to kiss him softly. Sam almost immediately returned the kiss, he gently laid Tanner across the couch as they continued to kiss. Sam's hand slowly went up from her legs to her thighs. Moments later the kissing was becoming heated, Tanner's fingers were locked in Sam's hair as their tongues were fighting from dominance.

"Grossly adorable." A voice from the stairway said with a smirk, the pair separated to see who was talking to them. The man who said it was Dean, he was holding a almost whining Lynx who was hungry. Dean was downstairs to warm up an already made bottle for her in the fridge. Dean walked to the kitchen after saying "Be careful, you two, or you'll end up having to do late bottle feedings with your own kid."
