Mafia AU - Getting Down to Business
Adam had just left for the weekend to visit his soon-to-be college, getting ready to start his prerequisites in the fall, when his mother dies. On the drive back home, he can't stop blaming himself, thinking that he should have stayed home, wondering why he wanted to go to college and should never have left home. It's stupid, he knows but Adam is so hurt and devastated that he continues his berating all the way to Windom.
When he pulls onto his mother's street, there's a big, sleek SUV sitting in the driveway. Adam doesn't recognize the vehicle but has a sinking suspicion. As he stops the car and climbs out, the doors to the SUV spring open and two men step out. Adam feels his throat close up, recognizing one of the men instantly.
"Dad."
John Winchester fixes his jacket, face cool and blank as he regards Adam. "Let's go inside, son."
Adam's face contorts in annoyance but he know better than to talk back to the head of the Winchester family. The only reason John's here is because of his mother, since the man has only shown up for his birthday once before and it was a brief visit at that, so if the man wants to say how sorry he is or something, Adam will let him say it then kick him out. He moves towards the house, noting that the other man that stepped out of the SUV is following along and Adam doesn't ask about that as he opens the door for both men.
The house still smells like his mom and he drops his bag in the entry way before turning on John. "Alright, what do you want?"
John frowns, probably from his tone and glances towards the other man. The other man is older, older than John and he's wearing a suit that's more casual than his father's too. The most striking part of the man's appearance is his beard though. "Adam," the bearded man starts. "My name is Robert Singer, I'm a friend of your dad's and we-"
"You're coming back with us. Pack your stuff."
Adam opens his mouth, ready to argue before John holds up his hand. "Your mother didn't die in a carwreck like the cops said, some of my rivals found out about you and her. They killed her to get to me and I'm sure they'll be coming back. So you don't get to argue, you just get to grab your things so we can go."
Thus, Adam Milligan says goodbye to his life in Minnesota and Adam Winchester said hello to his new life part of the Winchester family.
