"Jeez, Adam, your phone's been blowing up all night," Ben said as the trio walked home late one night. "Is it a case?"
"Uh... no, just a friend," Adam said as he stared down at his phone. It was his friend Matt. The two had been keeping in close contact since Adam had rescued Matt from a ghoul. Matt was traveling cross country before he settled down for a career that was waiting for him, and the two had decided to meet up at certain points along the way. Of course, Adam had yet to tell Ben and Alfie who his new friend was, or that they had begun a romantic relationship. And he also had yet to tell Matt that he only had five months to live.
"A friend, huh?" Ben asked. "Anyone we know?"
"Where did you learn to hustle pool like that? I haven't seen anyone do that since my old man taught me when I was 12," Adam asked, changing the subject as he watched Ben counting the money he'd just earned for the group.
Adam, Alfie, and Ben were headed back toward the house they shared together after dinner at the local bar. It had been a long day, tracking leads to find not only the Winchesters, but Patrick Wheat's missing twin sons, as well as Ben's mother. Ben still had not revealed any of his past to them, only that his mother was out there and he needed to find her. In fact, all three of them were keeping secrets from each other.
"It's a talent," Ben said. "We should have enough to last us for a while now. Are we hitting the road soon? I'm itching to try out some of our new gear."
"In the morning," Adam said as he pulled out the house key. "I want to get a good night's rest first, so none of us drives off the road again," Adam looked at Alfie as he said that.
"I was avoiding the squirrel," the former angel told them.
"Avoiding the squirrel doesn't mean driving all the way into the opposite lane," Adam said as he opened the door for them. "You're lucky there were no other cars on the road that night."
"Well, we should be refreshed enough in the morning so that the guy without a license doesn't have to endanger us," Ben said.
"My host vessel has a license," Alfie told them. "I still have the memory of it."
"Yeah, but the real Alfie is also in heaven," Adam reminded him as he closed the door and felt around for the light switch in the dark. "Along with pretty much everyone else we've ever known or loved.. aw, I made myself sad."
As Adam flipped the light switch, the trio didn't recognize anything about the place they were in. It was no longer a living room, it was a tacky looking 1970's game show set. The three young men were standing behind identical podiums, staring at a large game board across the room.
"What the hell is this?" Adam asked.
"Are you ready to play for cash, prizes, and your eternal soul?" the announcer backstage said. "Let's meet tonight's contestants! Adam Milligan is a closeted bi-sexual high school AV geek with a degree in repressing his anger and is afraid of hurting his best friends!"
"Dude," Ben said in a shocked tone as he looked at Adam. "You were in the AV club?"
"Yeah, but I'm not-" Adam said in shock as he looked at his friends. "He's a damn liar!"
"Ben Braeden is a rebel without a clue, but he does have serious "Daddy didn't love me issues" and cries himself to sleep at night over his dead girlfriend and missing mommy!"
"I thought that's what that noise was," Alfie said.
"You son of a bitch!" Ben shouted toward the announcer, where ever he was.
"And Samandriel is a former angel and all around perfect doormat who'll never get laid!"
"... Okay, now that one we can agree on," Adam said.
