to take care of you; I've got you, because that's my job, right?" -'Supernatural'
Sam and Brittany followed the press of students out the front doors of McKinley high. Sam held an umbrella in his hands, prepared to open it, when he realized that the rain that had been falling all day long had stopped.
"Look it stopped raining," Sam commented, letting go of the umbrella with one hand and letting it fall to his side.
"Yeah," Brittany said nervously, her eyes darting around as she searched the clearing skies.
"What are you looking for?"
"A rainbow," Brittany replied. "Oh no, there is one," she said, grabbing Sam's hand and starting to work through the crowd of students toward the parking lot. "Hurry, we need to get to the car and get someplace safe before they invade."
"Before who invades?" Sam asked, confused as he followed Brittany.
"The Leprechauns," Brittany asked.
"Leprechauns?" Sam asked incredulously, the answer not helping his confusion.
"Yes. Rainbows are their gateway into our world. Once they get enough of their kind in this realm they plan on taking over."
Sam bit his lower lip to keep from laughing. The ideas that Brittany got amused him at times but it was part of her charm. Sure, she was blonde and pretty but her looks wasn't her true beauty in Sam's eyes. Brittany's innocence, imagination and belief in things was what he truly found beautiful about her.
"Okay, but just calm down. I'll protect you if any leprechaun's come around. We don't want to get in an accident fleeing from them."
To his relief Brittany stopped her mad dash and looked back at him. "You'll really protect me?"
"Yes. That's what a guy's job is, isn't it. Protect the damsel in distress."
Brittany through her arms around him in a frantic hug. Sam smiled as he hugged her back. How couldn't he love this girl.
