“Just a Minute”
A drabble of 100 words
By December
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: PG
Pairing: Vague Sam/Jess
Warnings: Spoilers for “Pilot.” Canon character death.
Summary: It’s the hardest thing he’s ever had to do. Response to 100_ghosts week #10 extra credit prompt 1.01 “Pilot” coda.
Sam half-hopes that he doesn’t have the number saved in his cell. Jess’s little polka-dotted phone book is in ashes along with … everything else.
He draws a breath. One more minute. He’ll give Jess’s parents one more minute of believing that their daughter is alive and well. He wants to wait an hour, a year, a lifetime.
He dials. Someone picks up right away. Too soon.
“Hello?” It’s Jess’s mom.
He draws another breath. Five more seconds.
“Mrs. Moore? This is Sam Winchester.”
“Sam, dear, how are you? Is everything all right?”
“I … I have some bad news.”
