SHORT FUSE

By: Vanessa Sgroi

Dean scowled at the maniacally grinning clerk behind the worn, questionably clean counter. He was tired, dirty, hungry, thirsty, and hurt in too many places to name. Certainly in no mood for this douchebag's eyebrow-raising innuendo. "Okay, Shylock, just give us a key to a room."

"King bed, yeah?" the clerk leered.

Dean clenched a fist, ready to launch a right cross when Sam suddenly pulled him back from the counter.

"Dude, chill…"

"Sam, this Caliban doppelganger just called you Juliet to my Romeo…"

"I know—and you wanted to be Juliet, right?" Sam laughed as Dean sputtered. "Got ya."

FIN


A/N: Shylock was the hate-filled moneylender in the Merchant of Venice. Caliban was Prospero's dark, earthy slave often described as a monster in The Tempest. And Romeo and Juliet are, of course, self-explanatory. :-)
