A drabble of 100 words

Rating: G

Pairing: None

Warnings: None

Summary: Classic literature, strangely, does not feature violet watermelons. Response to 100_ghosts week #6 prompt "indigo/violet." Because once I started the ‘colors of the rainbow’ challenge set I couldn’t stop until I did them all.



John doesn't have much time for pleasure reading, but he pockets the Steinbeck paperback abandoned by a previous motel guest and reads it during spare moments while Sam colors and Dean's at school.

John makes it a point to admire each picture as it's completed. Sam hands him one just as John's finishing chapter four. There are three, um, pointy-faced gray dogs cradling several violet watermelons.

"That's really good, Sammy. Are these dogs?"

"No, daddy, it's your book!"

John's still puzzled. Sam can't read yet, but he did ask John what his book was.

"My book?"

"The grapes of rats."
