This thing of ours

On Wednesday, in Sam’s lecture, the professor stands up and talks about the nastiest, most untouchable crime family currently at work in the US: the Winchesters. Sam doesn’t react aside from the faint clenching of his jaw. None of the students turn in their seats to look at him, the professor’s gaze doesn’t search him out. Sam hasn’t been a Winchester for four years, not since he walked out on the family business and all the brutal, fucked-up shit that went with it.
