#centaur!sam

(Hi there!, I was going to continue posting each day and try to stick to the themes even after Sastiel Love Week ends because I started kind of late! I hope that’s okay with you! 💙)

Castiel walked through the woods, these trails were popular but not at this time in late fall. It got too cold and most people tended to avoid these rural trails.

But Castiel didn’t mind, he was of course, here to see Sam. Today was the Spring Equinox

Sam was a centaur that lived and protected these woods.

Castiel had seen him one evening when he was walking through the trail. However he could only appear at certain times of the year, during either a solstice or an equinox.

Most people believed this area to either haunted or blessed, but no one really knew what lay  dormant here but Castiel was lucky enough to have met Sam and he had been drawn to him.

Castiel walked through the underbrush and into the clearing, water bubbled at a small spring, frost had settled in the early morning and it dusted the forest beautifully. Castiel watched the sunrise on the horizon, cresting perfectly and shining beautifully across the sky.

From the edge of the treeline Sam emerged, his movements were so surreal. Even though Castiel had seen him so many times he was shocked every time. Sam was much taller than he was, his lower half was that of a moose and he had brilliant large antlers. Above his waist he was human, his hair was long and around his ears was a wreath of dark green ferns.

Castiel waved and Sam smiled brightly as he trotted forward to Castiel and he kneeled and sat down in the grass so they were almost at eye level with one another. Castiel’s heart glowed, and gave Sam a fierce hug, which the centaur gladly returned. Castiel sat in the wet grass next to Sam.

How are you?, Sam’s voice hummed quietly in his head, Castiel was still stunned when they communicate telepathically.

I’m well Sam, it’s nice to see you again, Castiel replied back.

Sam nodded, his hazel eyes glowed softly in the early morning and his smiled.

Sam told Castiel stories of the woods and all the things he’s seen and Castiel told Sam about his normal mortal life. Sam hung onto every word as he listened to Castiel in his own head.

The entire day was the most peaceful silence with nothing but the sounds the woods living around them before the moon appeared on the horizon and Sam stood and embraced Castiel once more. Castiel couldn’t hide the tears clouding his eyes as he hugged Sam goodbye.

Sam stood up, now towering above Castiel, trotting back into the woods he turned towards Castiel and smiled before he faded into the night.

Castiel held the necklace tightly around his neck, it was a leaf from Sam’s wreath of flowers that never rotted or needed to be taken care of, his only reminder of Sam until the next solstice in the winter. 

OMG THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!! I LOVE MOOSE CENTAUR SAM!!!  I wanna take him home with me....hmmm..I don’t think he’d fit in my condo...oh well I’d figure it out!
