(Hey all. So chapter 6. This one was quite difficult for me to write. Manly because every time I wrote the letter it just didn't sound right. But I finally got it and am quite pleased with how it turned out.
Thank you to LilyBolt and Guest for your review. And thank you to LilyBolt for your testimonial on the tomato and rice soup recipe. I want your guys' option. Do you like it when I include the recipe or not? I'm thinking of doing another recipe letter but I want to see if you like them or not, because I don't want to waste my time trying a recipe to see if it will work for the story if you don't want it.
I don't own Supernatural
Unbeated so all mistakes are mine and mine alone.)
OoO
It was the first week of college and Sam was overwhelmed and not for the first time he wondered if he was in over his head. Not only that but it felt like the people at the college didn't really like him that much. He didn't know most of the new pop music thanks to his Dad and Dean's shared taste in classic rock and he didn't know the latest star gossip that even some of the boys seemed to know. It also didn't help matters that when he signed up for classes they got his schedule mixed up and stuck him into a French language class. He had fallen asleep because of a bad night due to homesickness, guess he really didn't know how much he'd miss Dean, and the teacher surprised him by slapping a ruler on his desk and asked him to recite something in French. Startled out of sleep and just hearing recite Sam had rattled off a Latin exorcism. Yeah, that didn't earn him any weird looks at all.
At lunch he went back to the apartment to grab a quick bit to eat before his political science class. As he munched on some left over pizza he opened his bedroom door and making his way over to his desk he pulled out the letters and found the one he was looking for.
Open when you are feeling out of place
He put the plat of pizza on the desk sat down on his messy bed and opened it.
Sammy,
I know it must be tough for you right now. The kids there are probably ignoring you or something. I wish I could tell you that it gets better as the year goes on but I don't know the kids. Sam you'll find people all the time who don't like you for some reason or another, just focus on the kids who do and you'll do fine.
You belong there just like everyone else who has a right to a higher education. You come from a different background sure, but everyone dose. I bet if you talk to some people you'll find that their backgrounds may be no different than ours, ok that's a lie, no one's background can be like ours. But I'll bet you there would be some kids who only have one parent or may even be living with grandparents or may not have any relatives at all and grew up as foster kids or something.
The point I'm trying to make here is that you may seem like you're out of place, but you're not just open up to some people and I'll bet you will find some who are in kinda the same boat.
Anyway, just remember you deserve to be there just like everyone else.
I'm proud of you little brother.
Dean.
Sam sat there not quite sure what to make of the letter. Dean was telling him the one thing their dad had told them never to do. Open out to people and tell them about his past. He had been shut up about his past for so long he didn't think he could tell people about it but figuring it wouldn't hurt Sam decided to sign up for a cub. Maybe he'd meet some people there and he'd make some friends who were in the same boat as Dean put it.
OoO
