Chapter Ten

“What did you call that again?” Dean asked, trying to catch his breath.

He was positive he set a land speed record over snow getting them back to his apartment. Somewhere among the clothes strewn across the living room was their leftover lunch. It didn’t matter. Right now he was trying to stave off a heart attack as it tried to pound out of his chest. Maybe he was too old for someone so full of life. He was definitely going to start hitting the gym on a more regular basis.

“I’ve heard it called the wheelbarrow,” Sam answered from the floor next to him. She had dragged the blanket he kept on the back of the couch over them until they could get off the floor.

“It’s possible I pulled something,” he said.

She responded by snorting out a laugh. It wasn’t a joke, his left thigh muscle was still quivering.

“So is this how you’re going to react every time I talk about work? I’ll bring home one of those fucking boring law journals to read to you if this is the response I’ll get.”

She rolled on her side, studying him for a moment before she wiggled closer and laid one long leg over his. He kissed her temple as she settled on his shoulder.

“I think we trashed this room,” Sam mumbled.

“That seems to be a recurring theme this week. If class and work don’t reopen soon, I’m not sure the world will survive us.”

Sam laughed before she let out a deep sigh.

“What do you think about us heading to the city for the weekend?” Dean asked. “We can eat somewhere nice, see a show. I’ll get us a room at the Four Seasons, we’ll order all the room service we can hold. No mice have to be harmed in the making of this weekend.”

Sam laughed again, turning her face to look up at Dean. “That sounds amazing. Instead of a show, can we see if there’s a game in town?”

“We can do that,” he said with a smile. “We’ll leave Friday after work.”

“Can I ask a question?” she asked, placing a kiss on his jaw. “Do you have any idea what happened to our sandwiches?”

Dean got up from the floor, pulling Sam up behind him to begin the hunt for their lunch.

An hour later, Dean was spread on one of his couches in a pair of jeans and a T-shirt working on his laptop. He had the case file sitting next to him as he searched for the perfect words to convince the jury the kid sitting at his table wasn’t a complete monster.

Sam had pulled on a pair of yoga pants, digging through Dean’s closet until she found a Boston College sweatshirt he didn’t even remember he had. It completely engulfed her. But she seemed happy with it, so he was good.

“Uggg,” Sam moaned in dramatic fashion. Looking up from his laptop, he waited for her to elaborate. “Why did I have to take a class on law and ethics? The sexy man who teaches it gave me an impossible assignment.
