Blue hearts part 3
Sam felt the exact moment he was beyond heaven’s realm. As he was shot through space Sam felt as if he were a comet, like he had no control over the direction he was going. He passed about a hundred galaxies before reaching the Milky Way where he skimmed planets and bypassed moons before seeing earth in the distance.
The pull towards the earth was getting stronger and it made him go faster, soon he’d reach his destination, Sam came out of his thoughts in time to see the Earth’s moon out of the corner of his eye and then he was though the Earth’s atmosphere he felt the buzzing of the ozone layer as he crashed through that. It was then Sam was able to see the lights of all the human cites of the world. As he got closer the air that whipped around him was full of dust and pollution that made his eyes water, it forced him to close them
Sam never felt the impact as he crashed landed, when he opened his eyes he was looking at the night sky, and he was trees around him and felt the grass under him. Sam got up and looked around the place he landed in seemed almost like a forest, but yet he could hear the chattering of humans behind him. He walked towards the sounds and found a path where he saw human pairs walking along a path; Sam could see their essences twine around each other it was truly beautiful to see. Sam stepped on the path, following after them hoping that they would lead him out of here, the majority of the humans here were happy and happy wasn’t what he needed .
Sam eventually made it out the place called Central Park according to the sign, he saw on the way out. The street he walked down was a lot more crowded and not with couples but with the young and the old and people who looked too focused in their lives, he could feel the sadness around some of them and it reminded him of the rejection he felt from Dean, he smiled sadly to himself soon these humans would be happier he would make sure, but where to start? As he walked pass a restaurant he caught his reflection in the glass he noticed that his wings where no longer visible, but where did they go he turned around and looked over his shoulder and was the black impression of his wings were on the back of his sweater he unzipped his sweater to check that his bow and quiver survived the trip the strap was still in tacked he pulled the quiver to see that in fact ever thing was alright and in working order.
Sam walked through the streets to search out the perfect place to helping the humans. When he happened upon an older building with stone figures on top he decided that would be his first stop. Ducking into the alley as not to frighten the humans around him Sam leapt the side of the building with ease, he now had the perfect spot to start Sam walked to the edge of the building facing where there were the most humans gathered. Sam set up his bow and sat down on the ledge, he spied two females arm in arm and giggling, Sam picked up arrow and fired the arrow hit the taller female in the back and turned to dust the reaction was instant she grabbed the smaller one by the waist and kissed her. The smaller one reached up and grabbed the other’s face and led her to a wall without parting, Sam watched with envy wishing that it could be him and Dean.
He found another pair (a male and female) and shot the male with the same results, Sam sat on the roof of the building and shot a few more couples with his arrows. Sam watched as the essences of the couples that he shot lit up the already bright city street, they were bright vibrant and it made him dizzy the love that he created was heady as it clung to the air around him the cherub reached in this quiver to find that he was down to his last arrow “No, I need more” Sam mumbled it’s not like he could make more because only Cupid’s grace will make the love pure. Sam stood up and stumbled back towards the way he came he needed a place to make his last arrow last he looked over the edge it faced the alley, making sure he could see no humans near the bottom of the building Sam, leapt from the building and hit the pavement there was a dull stinging sensation in the bottom of his feet Sam ignored it and searched for some where he could use his arrow.
Sam wandered the streets of New York until he came upon a building with a line of young humans that looked to be about the age his vessel would be there were female and males grouped together trying to get into a door that an even bigger and older human male was blocking, and from beyond the door Sam could hear music that was loud and thumping. Sam went up to the human who was in charge of letting the young humans into the room filled with music “Excuse me, might I be able to gain entrance into your music room?” He asked. the older human looked down at him from head to toe and shook his head “Sorry kid, you look too young to even be out this late, why don’t you go on home and while you’re at it find some shoes kid the streets of New York ain’t no place for anybody’s bare feet “Sam looked at his feet, he didn’t know he needed to protect them, he assumed that they were like the human hands. Sam turned from the door; there must be another way in.
Sam walked away from the line of humans and the guard at the door and ducked in the space between the building and the one next to it, finding nothing at the side he came to the back where he saw a door that looked partly open running over to it he was about to open it when a noise from behind startled him he turned around to see a group of five young looking humans dressed up identically to the ones outside the front behind him for a moment no one said anything until one of them out of the group a short female with red curls stepped out in front “Come on man, if you’re going in then go! Before we all get caught.” She said as she brushed past him and opened the door the other four followed after her and Sam slipped in after them making sure to leave the door just as he found it.
As Sam walked deeper in to the club it felt as if he was hit with a wall of music, it was loud, thumping and he felt it all throughout his body. All around him he could see humans dance with each other in ways he’d never seen , he saw the essences of the humans in the music room mingle in the air above them and it was beautiful it added a shimmery effect to the lights were flashing around him before he knew it he was swept up the beat of the music and he swayed along with the rest of the crowd at one point arms from behind wrapped around his waist and when he looked back to see who held him he saw it was one of the human girls what was with red haired girl . She smiled up at him and led his hands to her hips, Sam blushed, he‘d never touched a human female before “My name’s Jessica,” the girl yelled over the music “I wanted to apologize for my friend Anna she didn’t mean to be so forward she just wanted me to have an awesome birthday” she continued as they swayed in time with the music “and now I am” she said as she looked up at him her green eyes sparkled in the coloured light. They reminded him of someone else’s.
The music changed and it became more hypnotic and the song spoke of love and the suddenly the entire room changed Sam felt the essences buzzing overhead and now he knew it was time to act . Now that he was alone he reached for his last arrow, he had to make it last. Arrow in hand, Sam danced through the crowd and any pairing he found he would jab the arrow in one of the partners, although not as effective as using the whole thing the reaction was the same and soon most of the music room was filled with love “beautiful” Sam murmured the music helped him relax and he kept on jabbing one person or another love, there needed to be more. If he couldn’t have it he would feed off the feeling of love from others it would be better this way.
Sam soon found himself spinning lost in the music and the love that he created it was concentrated and heavy and yet it made him feel lighter he felt his wings itching to get out he took off the sweater that blocked the way and tossed it to the side and no one seemed to notice as a party goer sprouted a pair of snowy white wings, they were lost and caught up in the, music and magic of the club. Sam continued to sway drunkenly while he moved through the club looking for anyone who was without someone else, but there was no one else they were all paired off , in love and happy . Sam wasn’t happy he may have felt the after effects of his arrows but he wanted to experience it, stumbling into a corner that already wasn’t occupied Sam slumped against the wall. His arrow was still in his hand he looked at it, if his arrow could make all these humans happy why couldn’t make him happy? Sam traced the arrow up from his neck to his chin and back again, one stab and he could finally be happy. Sam steadied his hand to make the final blow when a larger hand stopped his Sam looked up through half closed eyes to see blue eyes when what he wanted was to see green. He heard Michael speak to him in a smooth comforting tone “Easy now little brother, Cupid’s arrows were meant for humans not us, it will be alight Samuel we’ll get you home” Sam felt himself being lifted off the floor of the club “Can’t keep doin’ this for me big brother” Sam mumbled in to Michael’s chest . “Shh, rest easy now little cherub we’ll talk later when you’re feeling better” that was the last thing Sam heard before his eyes fell shut.
Epilogue
He in bed that was the first thing Sam was aware of. He opened his eyes to see the familiar ceiling of his room over head the next thing he became aware of was the weight on his right hand he looked over to see what that was to find a certain blond head resting on his hand “Dean?” Sam croaked. The head shot up to see worried green eyes staring back at him, “Sammy, I was so worried” Dean said his voice rougher that usual “are you alright...” Dean paused “Of course you’re not, that was all my fault I’m so sorry Sam, I was a complete and utter jerk for not saying anything when that idiot Justin started mouthing off, but you yelling at him and all those feather brains in the garrison myself included set us straight cause all the jerks making fun of you, finally got respect for you and the cherubs” Dean finished
“Really” Sam asked surprised he able to do all of that just by getting angry he was sure that they would just ignore him. “Yeah Sammy, you did that” Dean smiled back him “When you left I felt like crap for what I did to you so I looked for you in our spot but you weren’t there I went to see if you were with the rest of your squad, but no one had seen you” Sam felt Dean squeeze his hand a little tighter “that’s when I took page from your book and listened out for you on our link you didn’t mask it that you were on Earth so I went to your human watching spot in Edanna, found you and went to Michael seeing as I can’t go to earth without direct orders and he was pretty okay with helping once I told him it was you” Sam was now sitting up ‘So that’s how Michael found him’.
“ m’sorry Dean for causing you so much trouble ,” Sam said while looking at his hands he managed to embarrass, himself and Dean in front of Michael “Hey, Sammy look at me it’s alright I’m just glad you’re here safe and sound , it’s just that when we found you I..” Dean had to swallow “I thought that we’d... I’d lose you, with the way you had that arrow... I wouldn’t be able to live with that” Sam put a hand to Dean’s face “it’s alright Dean I’m okay know why don’t you sit down beside me. Sitting down in one place gets irritating doesn’t it?” nodding Dean climbed into the bed a stretched out his legs he wrapped his arm around Sam, and Sam curled into Dean’s arm “This is nice isn’t D?” Sam asked “Yeah Sammy but that cuddling thing that humans do is way too girly for me got it?” Dean answered “Yeah D, I got it “Sam said as he curled up even more with Dean. What Dean didn’t know would hurt him or his manly pride
