Chapter 6: Brothers:

Work was going well, and Adam hadn't heard from Kevin or the Winchesters since that one time. Samandriel was fine too, but he occasionally complained of boredom. He visited Adam at work a lot, and Adam was pretty sure Kristie was planning something evil whenever Samandriel showed up.

"I want to get a job" Samandriel sighed.

"That requires a lot of stuff you don't have" Adam sighed back. "You need an ID, and that costs money we don't have."

Samandriel was determined to get himself an ID. One day when Adam was at work he took Adam's library card and used it to use the computer at the library. He looked up the requirements for getting an ID, and printed out a form he found online. He really wanted to get a job to earn more money for Adam (and himself of course).

5 days later when Samandriel told Adam he had acquired an ID, Adam wasn't sure if he should be happy or not. "You're really determined to get a job" Adam commented "why?"

"I want to help pay for things" he replied. "And I don't want to sit around the motel all day."

"Where do you want to work?"

"There are job openings in multiple shops around town."

"So wherever you can get hired?"

Samandriel nodded in confirmation.

"Well if you really want to then go for it."

Samandriel's eyes widened in surprise "really?!"

"Yeah. Like you said we need the money, and plus I want you to be happy, considering you're stuck on Earth with me."

"I do not mind being on Earth with you."

"I don't mind the company."

A week later Samandriel interviewed for a job stocking shelves at Wal-Mart. Adam came with him to the interview to give him support. "How was it?" Adam asked when the angel returned to him.

"I'm not sure" he shrugged "I answered the questions to the best of my ability."

"Well as long as you tried your best then it doesn't matter if you got the job or not" he said as cheeseless as he could.

"Thank you for your support Adam."

"No problem" Adam smiled. "What do you want to do? We have a whole day left until I have to go back to work!"

Samandriel paused to think. "Can we see a movie?" He asked "if it's not too much money of course! I have been near the cinema before and it seems like an interesting concept."

"Yeah, we can see a movie" Adam grinned "man I haven't been to the theater in forever!"

They took a bus to the movie theater, and then they looked at all the posters for the movies. Samandriel told Adam he wasn't sure what he wanted to see, so Adam recommended seeing one about giant robots and aliens, because those were always at least decent.

They bought tickets for the next showing, and also popcorn and slushies, and they got in the theater early enough to watch the commercials for all the other new movies coming out.

The actual movie was better than Adam had expected, it had an interesting plot and interesting characters. "See I told you those two were gonna hook up" Adam commented near the end.

"That much was obvious" Samandriel replied. "I'm curious as to the scientists future though."

"Hopefully the stuck up one learns to loosen up... And get rid of the sweater vests."

Samandriel nodded. "I enjoyed the movie, thank you for taking me."

"No problem" Adam smiled "I take it you liked the popcorn too" he laughed looking at the empty bucket of popcorn Samandriel was holding.

"It was good" he said in some form of unnecessary defense.

"See human things aren't too bad" Adam pointed out.

"Some aren't" Samandriel agreed.

Adam and Samandriel went to the library after that. Adam wanted Samandriel to check out some books because reading would keep him entertained while he wasn't around, more so than the TV. "Try Harry Potter" he recommended, and Samandriel checked out the first book.

They spent the rest of the day fooling around at the motel, and Adam thought it was the most fun he had had in a while.

~o0o~

Samandriel didn't get the job.

And he wasn't happy about it.

"Hey, it's ok" Adam assured "Walmart is stupid anyways, we can get you another interview somewhere better."

Samandriel didn't seem very convinced.

"It's not a big deal" Adam tried again. "Come on, why don't you come to work with me today? You still have to try the cheese fries!"

"I feel useless Adam" Samandriel said.

"No don't you say that" Adam sat down next to Samandriel on the bed. "You are the opposite of useless, you saved me from Hell remember?"

Samandriel frowned in response. Adam looked over at the clock. "Come on S'mandy, get dressed. You're gonna help me at work today." Adam stood up and pulled Samandriel to his feet.

The angel slumped over in defeat "do you really want me at work with you? I'll most likely just get in the way."

"You won't get in the way" Adam promised. "Plus everyone likes you."

So Adam took Samandriel with him to work. He let Kristie know that he was a bit down, and Kristie seemed to understand. "I'll order him some fries" she said.

Samandriel appreciated the fries, and his mood slowly became better throughout the day. He offered to help out around the place, and Kristie gave him a polo to put on. By the end of Adam's shift he was all smiles.

Everything was perfect until they headed back to the motel, and after 10 minutes of lounging, heard a knock at the door.

Adam peered through the foggy peephole and almost screamed. "It's the Winchesters!" He said instead.

Samandriel's eyes widened. "Are you going to open the door?"

"Uh no way... But they know we're in here... You open the door!" Adam was hurriedly deciding if it would be a good idea to hide in the closet.

"Calm down Adam, I will open the door." Adam sat down on the bed and winced as Samandriel slowly pulled open the door.

"Hello Sam and Dean" Adam heard Samandriel say "how may I help you?"

"Alfie?!" Dean's voice rang through the room "is Adam in there?"

Samandriel was skillfully blocking the doorway with his body. "I'm afraid Adam would rather not speak to you at the moment."

"Oh move over" Dean pushed Samandriel aside and barged into the room. "Dude" he said "you're actually here."

"Yeah I noticed" Adam frowned. "Why are you here?"

"To help you" Dean said as if it was obvious. "You're mad at us aren't you?"

Adam snorted "it's not as if you let me get locked in the Cage with the freaking devil or anything."

"Hey you know that wasn't on purpose."

"I don't want your help."

"We know you need money and stuff" Dean looked back at Sam "and you're not safe here."

"I'm perfectly safe. I don't need your money, I have a job."

"You have a job?" Dean raised a brow.

"Yes I do, thank you very much."

"Why is the angel here?"

"I am here on my own accord to help and protect Adam" Samandriel butted in.

"So what you have an angelic bunk buddy?"

"Dean" Sam sighed "if he doesn't want our help there's not much we can do."

"We can't just leave him here."

"Why not?" Samandriel frowned "Adam and I have managed perfectly fine without your help."

"Jeez protective much?" Dean put his hands on his hips and sighed. "Do you have a phone?"

"We use the motel one."

Sam stuffed his hand into his pocket and pulled out an old looking flip phone. "Take this, we're already programmed in the contacts. Call us if you need help." Adam took the phone reluctantly.

"Thanks. I'll call you if there's trouble. Now can you leave?"

Sam frowned and Dean sighed. "If we call... Just answer ok?"

"Yeah, yeah I got it."

"Ok well then, I guess we'll leave now" Sam shrugged. "Come on Dean."

"Wait, one question" Adam said quickly "how did you find me?"

"Kevin" Sam and Dean said simultaneously.

"That son of a bitch" Adam grumbled.

Sam laughed, and ushered Dean out of the door. Samandriel shut it behind them.

"Brothers" Adam groaned.

Quick note that my laptop is broke and I have to send it in to get fixed so my typing will have to be done on my phone. That may cause a delay in the next update, so sorry in advance!
