My World and Hers (a Sam Winchester love story)

Chapter 13: Is Crazy Contagious?

<Sam's POV>

Keira falls asleep in the passengers seat halfway to the hotel Becky called us about. Becky...if crazy were contagious, she'd have started an epidemic by now. She's obssessed with me and I don't know why. It's not as if Chuck sheds some sort of manly heroic light on me in his novels, she just stalks me.

It's another couple hours before we reach the hotel, but there's no shortage of cars in the parking lot. I glance at Dean in the passenger seat.

"Demons?" I guess.

He shrugs.

"No clue."

I reach over and gently shake Keira. She blinks awake and looks out the window first, then at me.

"Demons?" she asks.

I hear Dean chuckling in the backseat but choose to ignore him.

"We were hoping you would know," I tell her.

She shakes her head.

"All she said was that it's an emergency," a rueful smile pulls her lips up, "and to hurry."

I shake my head as well. Is it possible that Becky's gotten crazier since we last saw her?

"Let's go see what's happening," I say and we all climb out.

Lucifer follows, looking vaguely amused.

"Ooh Sammy has an admirer?" he teases, "is she hot?"

I don't respond. Instead, I stand next to Dean, who opens the trunk of the Impala and removes the false bottom. Keira immediately grabs her favorite gun from the trunk-the one she shot Dean's daughter with. I don't know why she doesn't carry it on her all the time like Dean does with his, but she just doesn't. She also grabs holy water, stored in a Dasani bottle.

As we're about to pass through the doors, she touches her neck briefly, checking to make sure her cross necklace is on. The air conditioning passes over us and then we're in the lobby. It's full of people but none of them pay attention to us. Keira frowns, glances at a couple of guys passing by and then glancing at me.

"Why are all these guys dressed like you two?" she asks.

Surprised, I look down then at all the people here. She's right, they're dressed like Dean and I.

"Sam!" Someone cries and I'm attacked and nearly sent to the floor with the force of the hug.

I hear Dean and Keira snickering above me and when my attacker releases me, I'm met with the crazed smile of Becky Rosen. She looks the same as she did last time I saw her except...

"Becky...are you wearing a wig?"

She steps away from me.

"Oh, yeah," she says, rolling her eyes slightly, "the people at these conventions think it's weird if you don't dress up as someone from the books. I would have dressed up as Jessica, but she was never really described very well."

I step away from her, putting a hand up. What in the world is she talking about? Convention? Dress up? What is that even supposed to mean? But Keira gasps and then starts laughing hysterically. I look at her.

"Uh, Keira?" I say, grabbing her attention, "care to explain?"

She giggles for a moment before she pulls herself together enough to answer me.

"This is a, uh, Supernatural convention. Remember the books? Well, this a gathering of some of the fans."

Dean looks at her, his expression confused and vaguely insulted.

"Wait, wait, wait, so this is all of Chuck's followers?"

She shakes her head.

"Only some of them. This is a relatively small convention. They were talking about it on the website the other day but I didn't know where it was being held."

He shakes his head.

"This is so messed up. I need a drink."

Becky jumps in, obviously ignoring Keira.

"The bars over there," she says, pointing to another room.

Dean goes off, clearly annoyed. Becky turns back to me, her nutty smile back in place. I take in her entire outfit, realizing how the purple contacts fit in.

"You're dressed up as Kristy?" he asks.

"Well yeah, since she's the only substantial female character with detailed descriptions," Becky explains and Keira chuckles again.

I look at her.

"You only think this is funny because you're not in the books," I accuse and she nods in agreement, laughing even harder.

I roll my eyes half heartedly.

"Kris would think this is great too," she says and take a long swig of the holy water.

I turn back to Becky, getting serious.

"Becky, you know we gave you that number for emergency's," I say.

She immediately gets nervous.

"I thought it would be good for you to see it," she says, getting excited again, "I mean, can you imagine it? The real Sam and Dean coming to the Supernatural convention!"

I sigh. Well, this is as good a place as any to stop for the night. We might as well.

"We're not staying for this," I tell Becky and Keira sends me a questioning look.

"Why not?" Keira asks.

I give her a look that says 'we'll talk about it later' and she nods slightly.

"I think I'm going to call Kristy. You look like you're getting into a bad mood," Keira says and goes out to the car.

"Kristy is alive?!" Becky asks.

I remember that Becky never met Kristy and at the end of the books Kristy went to Hell, like Dean.

"Yeah, she's not human anymore, but she's alive," I answer.

Becky looks mystified. Before she can ask any more questions, Keira comes back in, Kristy with her.

"OMG you're Kristy!" Becky shouts and attacks Kris in a huge hug that sends her to ground.

She lands with a little 'oof'.

"Uh, yeah. And if you know me, you know I'm not a hugger. Please get off."

Becky climbs off Kristy and looks at her.

"I'm sorry, I'm just such a huge fan. You're so smart and pretty and OMG I can't believe you're the real Kristy!"

Kristy climbs to her feet dusting off her leather jacket and green tank top.

"Uh, yup, I'm the real deal."

Castiel comes in, his expression questioning.

"Who are you?" Becky asks.

"I am Castiel, the angel," he says, calm as always.

Kristy sends him a cute sideways smile that says she adores him and winks at me. I remember when I first asked her if she was in love with Cas. Her reaction had been so stricken and immediate that I'd known right away.

"OMG, are you two a couple?!" Becky asks and Kristy nods.

"Congratulations!" Becky cries and give Kristy another hug.

Kris's expression is priceless. It absolutely screams 'help me'. She doesn't really like hugs unless she's the one giving them out. That's proven when she sees Chuck and give him a quick hug.

"Hey there Chuck!" she says sweetly, "I missed you."

Kristy and Cas stay for a while, but in the end it's late and we all get a room in the hotel. As Keira goes to get her bags from the car, I notice Becky glaring death at her. Tomorrow is definitely going to be an interesting day.
