Every Breath You Take – Chapter 7
John was going over some of his notes on their next hunt and sighed with frustration. It was becoming increasingly apparent that this hunt was in need of a recon mission to establish whether the claims were viable or not. A recon mission normally wouldn't be a problem, but with his youngest so ill, it was nearing impossible.
John was brought out of his musings by the sound of the front door opening. He jumped up from the kitchen table and headed over to his boys. Dean was struggling to get his younger brother inside.
John quickly grabbed a hold of Sam and helped Dean lead the youngest member of the family towards the bedroom. Once in the room, John helped Dean get Sam comfortable in bed and the two quietly headed towards the living room.
"So Dean, how did it go at the medical clinic?" John asked as he plopped down on the couch in the living room.
Dean joined him on the other side of the couch. "Uh, I guess Sam is trying to follow in my footsteps Dad, because little Romeo has mono."
John nodded, he figured it was a virus, but was frustrated when he heard it was mono. He didn't know a lot about the kissing disease but he did know that it took a while to get over. "So your brother is going to be out of it for a bit, huh?"
"Yeah, that doctor friend of Heather's said that we need to at least keep him home from school for another week. He gave me a note to present when we do enroll Sam explaining that we had medical reasons for waiting." Dean placed his hand in his back pocket and handed the note to John.
"Wow, a week huh? What else did the doctor say?" John was hoping that a few days of drugs and Sam could at least go half days to school.
"Well, it seems that strep throat is a complication that tends to crop up with mono, and while Sam's throat was too swollen to get a good sample, Dr. Samuels was almost certain he had it. He said that the rash Sam has on his wrist, which has also spread to his chest is either caused by the mono or it could be a strep rash. So Sam got a shot to the scrawny thing he calls a butt and a prescription for antibiotics. And Dad, I might add he didn't complain once so I know he feels like crap." Dean finished his speel and looked up expectantly.
"Man, I hate that the boy is this sick, and on top of that, we may have to trash this hunt for a while or pass it on. I talked to Father Jim earlier about dropping Sam off with him until the hunt was done, but he has his hands full helping Caleb out on a hunt." John sighed in frustration.
"Well Dad, I don't think all is lost. I was talking to Heather on the way back and she mentioned that if we really needed to leave on the job you told her about, she would be happy to watch Sam. And while I'm not a big fan of leaving Sam with people we barely know, she seems to really care about Sam. I watched her with him today, and she clearly has maternal feelings towards him, and get this Dad- Sam actually listens to her. In that respect, he might heal better with her. When we got back, he was griping about going back to bed, but she just placed a hand on his shoulder and said you need your rest Sam, and that was that." Dean finished glancing at his Dad with a questioning look.
John was torn, he too felt that Heather would take good care of Sam, but something just didn't set right with him about leaving his youngest behind. "I don't like it Dean, but I'd hate to scrap the whole hunt. Recon should only take a couple of days. I guess it wouldn't hurt to talk to her about it."
"Well, she said that she would be over in a couple of hours to check on Sam. You can talk to her about it then."

Heather lightly knocked on the door, and waited for it to open. Her plan had worked out so beautifully today, that she couldn't believe her luck. She just hoped that everything continued to fall in place.
John answered the door, and quickly invited her in.
"Hi John, I brought a couple of books over for Sam to read while he is recouping. My nephew, who is Sam's age, gave them to me after he finished them, and told me that they were the bomb. However, Stephen King and Clive Barker, don't quite go with my earth girl vibe, but I thought Sam might enjoy them." Heather hoped her little lie was believable, she had no nephew and had bought the books for Sam hoping he would enjoy them.
"Yeah, I'm sure he will like them. Uh, Heather, do you have a moment? I wanted to talk to you about something." John motioned for her to sit on the couch with him. Heather was excited at the prospect of what John might have in mind and brushed her hand across his as they sat down hoping to inspire confidence in the man.
"So John, what's up?" Heather asked, hoping that she exuded calmness that masked the excitement she was feeling.
"Dean mentioned to me that you would be able to watch Sam, if I needed you too. I was wondering if in a couple of days, you would be willing to do that. I still need to gather some information but I should be ready to do recon on my job in a few days time." John gave her a tentative smile.
"Oh sure John, that wouldn't be a problem at all. Like I mentioned to Dean, living where I work and taking classes from home, really would make it easy for me to keep an eye on Sam. To be honest, it would be nice to have him around, I do miss having someone to talk to and he reminds me of my nephew Aaron, who I'm very close too." Heather reached over and patted John's hand.
"Well, I guess that settles it. I'll give you a definite departure time as soon as I know. I really appreciate this Heather." John gave her a big grin, and Heather had to repress a chuckle at how he reminded her of a little kid at Christmas when it came to the hunt.
"Again not a problem, just let me know when." Heather returned his smile.
"Uh, if you want to visit with Sam, he's in his room with Dean. Dean just woke him up like twenty minutes ago and took him something to eat. In fact, Dean might need your help getting his brother to eat." John replied as he got up off the couch. "I'm going to make some calls so just make yourself at home."
Heather nodded. "Sure thing John." She rose from the couch and headed towards the boy's bedroom.

Heather approached the boy's door way and could hear them squabbling over the need for Sam to eat something.
"Hello boys. Hope I'm not interrupting." Heather smiled at the two and had to keep from laughing at the sight in front of her. Sam was pouting and Dean was in mother hen mode.
"Hi Heather, no you're not interrupting. Maybe you can get Romeo over here to eat something." Dean replied with a smirk.
It broke her heart when Sam croaked out. "My throat hurt too much to eat." Sam then glared at his brother.
"Well Dean, I think I'm going to side with Sam on this. I had a bad case of strep throat before and it took at least a day of taking antibiotics before I felt like eating. The important thing is to keep him hydrated. I know when my throat is sore, I crave the crush iced that Sonic has. They sell it by the bag, you could go and pick some up for Sam." Heather approached and touched Dean's shoulder in a supposed show of support.
"Sure thing, I can do that. I'll just run and get a bag now. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be back later, little bro. Just no trying to kiss Heather, that's what got you in trouble in the first place!" Dean grinned and picked up the untouched tray turning to leave.
Sam squeaked out "Jerk" before his brother was out of the room. The comment evidently embarrassed Sam, because his cheeks now had a bit of color to them.
Heather smiled at Sam and sat down at the edge of his bed, in the spot his brother had previously occupied.
"I'm so sorry that you're under the weather Sam, but I brought you a couple of books. The latest from Stephen King and the other is by Clive Barker. They come highly recommended by my nephew." Heather watched as Sam nodded and took the books with a small smile.
Sam managed a quiet "Thanks" and started to peruse the two books.
"Sure Sam, I hope you like them. Oh and tucked into the Stephen King book, is a couple of pamphlets on mediating and Chakras so that you can read up on them. If they catch your interest I can lend you some books on the subject and we can just put a Stephen King book cover over them." Heather gave Sam a conspiratorial wink.
"Yeah, you would have too, or Dean would never let me live it down. Thanks, I would like to read more about The Chakras." Sam's voice was strained and Heather could tell it pained him to speak.
"Sam, I know it hurts to talk so I won't keep you long, but I wanted to do a quick mediation with you to see if we could kick your body into gear, and help with the healing process. I think when we did it earlier you said it made you feel better." Heather gave Sam a reassuring smile and waited for his response.
"Uh, I guess it couldn't hurt. D-Do we need to sit on the floor?" Sam's tone was unsure.
"Oh no sweetheart, I want you to be comfortable. Just lie down, and place your right hand over your heart. That is your Heart Chakra and that will help center you. Then place your left hand over the pulse point on your neck. I'm going to place my right hand over yours to give your system a boost." Heather was happy to see Sam do as he was told without her influencing touch.
She watched as Sam lay down in bed and placed his hands where she had instructed. Heather then laid her right hand over his, and resisted the urge to take the energy she felt there. It was hard to do, but she reminded herself that Sam needed to get better before she could feed. It would do her no good if he ended up in the hospital. Instead she opened up her energy for him to draw from.
"Okay sweetie, just do as last time close your eyes and picture a peaceful place. Once you have that image in your head, then concentrate on your breathing. Breathe in and out, in and out. That's good Sam, I can feel your body relaxing, now your hand over your heart will start to heat up as will the one on your neck. Soon you will feel the energy flowing through your body. It may rest in some areas longer than others as it travels through your body, and that is okay. Some parts of your body will need more of an energy boost than others." Heather watched as Sam nodded that he understood. She could feel the energy starting to flow, and it was then that she let her energy join his.
She heard his breath catch at the intensity of the flow. "Just relax Sam, let it happen." After she spoke she could feel Sam's body greedily accepting her energy, and Sam started to relax again. Heather wouldn't have to share much energy with him, she realized that his body was beginning to learn how to tap into its own reserves. It would be long before his body would be ready for her to feed on again.
Sam's quiet voice brought her out of her thoughts. "I-I think the energy has made it all the way through, I can feel it in the tips of my toes just like before."
Heather broke off contact. "How do you feel sweetie?"
"Honestly, much better. I have a bit of energy, and my throat is better. But how?" Sam was truly amazed over what had happened.
"Our bodies are powerful things Sam, and most of us chose not to tap into that energy. I bet if you continue to mediate, your body will rebound from this case of mono fast." Sam nodded in understanding and Heather reluctantly stood to go. The longer she stayed with Sam, the harder it was not to feed.
"I'm going to head out Sam, I've got homework waiting on me. I know you feel better, but don't overdo it okay? Maybe just read for a bit?" Heather patted him on the shoulder as she spoke.
"Reading sounds good. Thanks again for bringing me the books and the pointers on mediating. I appreciate it." Sam replied with a shy smile.
"Sure thing Sam, you just take care, and I'll see you soon." Heather watched as Sam blushed at her attention and nodded goodbye to her.
As Heather left the room she was conflicted, she was definitely happy with how things were playing out for her, but the need to be with Sam made it hard to leave him. She just reminded herself that soon he would be all hers.
A/N : Thanks again to everyone who is reading and reviewing! We should have more up in a couple of days!
