A/N: Huge thanks to the incredibly talented
fanlay, who was such a pleasure to work with and a true collaborator in every sense of the word. We seemed to read each other’s minds at some points, and it was incredibly inspiring! I'm so lucky to have been able to work with you! Please leave kudos at the art post. And to my awesome beta,
without_me, who caught all my continuity errors and made me laugh at the same time. And finally to the
spn_j2_bigbang mods, who bring this wonderful opportunity to fandom every year.
Summary: Sam Winchester changed his name before he got to Stanford. Now Samuel Francis Wesson is a rising star at a California law firm with a reputation for championing the underdogs and bringing down the bad guys. He and Jess have a neon blue hybrid with a bike rack on top, and a cozy red stucco house with built-in bookshelves and hanging baskets of bougainvillea on the front porch. Sam Wesson has everything he ever wanted, except for the one thing he knew he shouldn’t. Dean is still a Winchester, still a hunter, still in love with Sam and determined not to admit it. Years of avoiding each other and their true feelings have left Sam and Dean strangers. But when Sam’s luck changes and tragedy finds him, he turns in desperation to the older brother he walked away from years ago, hoping that the bond forged between them in childhood will prove strong enough to bring them back together.
