"Grandpa why is that statue there" asked a little boy no older than ten. An older man with long grey hair tied back into a ponytail pulled him up onto his lap.
"I've told you before David" he reminded him. The little boy with dark blonde hair sat down on Sam's lap.
"Tell it again please" he asked. Sam rolled his eyes, but he could put say no to David.
"Once upon a time there where two lovers. They each belonged to two different families. These families hated each other and would hurt them if they ever saw one another. One day the two lovers met and they instantly fell in love. They know that they could never be together so they planned to run away. Before they could, the families started a fight. The two lovers where ordered to kill each other, but they couldn't do it. So they went in front of both of their families and they showed them how much they loved each other. The two lovers knew that this wouldn't change anything, so they took their lives together. When the two lovers died it made both families so sad that they decided to end their fight. The two families then decided to erect a statue in honor of the two lovers, so they would never forget. Do you know what the inscription at the bottom of the statue says" Sam asked.
"For all the ships that never sailed" Repeated David. Sam nodded his head.
"That's to remind us all that, because the two lovers sacrificed their lives we can live in peace and we can sail. It's because if their sacrifice that we have all that we have today" Sam told his grandson. David wiggle off of his grandfather lap and sat next to him on the bench. They looked at the statue for a little while. It was of two figures that had no faces. They looked like two fleshy stick figures and one was just slightly taller than the other. They where holding hands and even though they didn't have faces they looked like the happiest things around.
"What where their names Grandpa" David asked. Sam looked at David, he had never asked that question.
"Dean and Cas...their names where Dean and Cas" Sam said. David hurried and nodded in approval. Suddenly David's eyes went wide.
"What's up Dave" Sam asked him. David tried to hide his face with his jacket, but he wasn't doing a very good job.
"That boy over there is making we feel...all weird" David said as he pointed to the kid. Sam looked and he tried not to smile as much as he wanted to. The kid David was pointing at had dark hair and he was holding his mothers hand tightly. The little boy reminded him so much of Cas, heck he even had on a trench coat.
"Why don't you go and talk to him David" Sam asked. David shook his head violently.
"No I'm not going to talk to Carson, he's a Novak" he said.
"What's wrong with being a Novak" Sam asked. David slowly lowered his jacket.
"...nothing I guess" David said. Then David slid himself off of the bench. Before he ran over to Carson, David turned around.
"Grandpa what if I end up being like Dean and Cas" he asked. Sam sighed.
"No one is that lucky" Sam told him. David smiled and ran over to Carson. Sam watched as his grandson made a new friend, and most likely a friend for life. Sam had always thought that David had looked and acted to much like Dean for his own good. Maybe David was Dean. Maybe Carson was Cas. Maybe this was the universe giving them another chance. Giving them a chance to live. Giving them a chance to be happy.
