Chapter 16

"You what?" Dean asked. Sam closed his eyes. He had told Dean the reason why he had stuck with Jesse, and Dean had been in shock. "How the hell could you still be in love with him? He beat you!"

"Not at first." Sam said. Priestly was still asleep, but Sam had left the safety of his arms so that he could talk to Dean outside. Sam was sitting on the hood of the Impala while Dean paced in front of him. He had thrown a couple punches at the wall. But when Sam almost started crying, Dean stopped.

"Sammy, I'm sorry." Dean said. "You don't need me bein a jerk to you." He gently ruffled Sam's hair. Sam smiled at him. "Now calmly tell me what exactly happened." Dean added. Sam sighed.

"When we first started dating, he was so nice. He would hold open the door for me, he would buy me things, he was the nicest person in the world. But soon, he wanted me to drop out of school, then he wanted me to drop out of college, then I couldn't go places by myself, and soon, he started to beat me. I ran a couple times, but I learned…I learned…" Sam started crying then. Dean was about to move to Sam when someone pushed him away and hugged him.

"Just breathe Sammy." Priestly said, running Sam's back and hugging him. "It's okay. It's okay." He said.

"Hey." Dean said. He pulled Priestly away from Sam and was about to hit him. Dean's raised fist made Sam go into shock. He started to hyperventilate. Because he didn't see Dean or Priestly. Instead, he saw Jesse, his fist about to crash into Sam's face. "Sammy." Dean said, lowering his fist and looking at his brother. He ran over to him. "Hey look at me." He said. Priestly set on the hood next to him.

"No one's ever gonna hurt you again." Priestly said. "Not while I'm till breathing." He gently massaged his neck.

"I'm…sorry." Sam said. He was shaking a lot as Priestly pulled him into a hug. Dean stared at him.

"You didn't do anything wrong baby brother." Dean said. Sam rested his head against Priestly chest as he caught his breath again. Dean walked up to him and patted his back. Priestly looked over at him. He wasn't exactly in Dean's fan club.

"Come on." Priestly said, getting Sam to his feet and walking him back to the room. "Take it easy. One step at a time." Dean realized how gentle Priestly was with Sam, and how much Sam seemed to take to him. He made a vow then, that if Jesse Moore ever showed his face around Dean, he would kill him.

"Thank your Priestly." Sam said as Priestly lead him to the bed and set him down. Sam fell asleep again. Priestly smiled at him before whispering in his ear.

"I'm falling in love with you Sammy." He said. He gently kissed Sam's forehead then and smiled.

Oh poor Sammy! Good thing he had Priestly! Please review!
