Five Things Sam Wishes Dean Knew and One Thing He’s Glad He Doesn’t

Sam watches Dean sleep in the predawn light. His brother is most beautiful when he’s unconscious. Or coming. Any moment when he’s allowed himself to let himself go, when he’s no longer putting up a front. Sam thinks back, pulling memories and half formed desires up from the grey morning of his heart.

Dean doesn’t know that the first time Sam came, he wasn’t thinking of the little girl who sat next to him in Social Studies class. He was thinking of Dean. He was twelve.

Dean doesn’t know that when he arches his back against Sam’s touch Sam sometimes wants to cry.

Dean doesn’t know that Sam once stole the Impala and took it for a joyride. He was fourteen.

Dean doesn’t know that he’s not Sam’s “brother” or “lover”. He’s his Dean. And that’s everything. Labels become unnecessary just like everyone and everything else is unnecessary as long as he’s got Dean.

Dean doesn’t know, really know, that Sam would do anything for him. Sam knows Dean won’t let himself believe that one. The implications are too shattering. And Dean doesn’t think he’s worth that kind of love. He is.

And then there’s the thing that Sam is glad Dean doesn’t know. That Sam has figured out a way, the only way, to save his brother from the demon that will be coming around to claim his soul in just a few short days.

Sam sits in the predawn light watching Dean sleep, watching the grey of the gun in his hands finally resolving itself into a separate grey from the light in the room.


Three Things Dean Knows And One Thing He Doesn’t

Dean knows that Sam came for the first time thinking of him because the stupid little kid said his name right before he let out the little whimper that let Dean know what was going on in the other bed. He got up afterwards and jerked off in the bathroom trying not to think of anyone. It didn’t work.

Dean knows about Sam and the Impala. He let his kid brother think that he had gotten away with something. What Sam didn’t know is that Dean was shadowing him in Dad’s pick-up, just to make sure he didn’t kill himself. Or the Impala.

And Dean knows that Sam has figured it out. Dean knows what’s coming. Because Dean also knows that Sam will do anything for him. He gets that. So when Sam’s lips brush against his and he hears the gun cock near his ear, he smiles.

Dean doesn’t know there are two bullets in Sam’s gun.

Oh my God. That was so beautifully written and heartbreaking. The ending was just excellent! This was such a lovely story. Our poor boys...but at least they'll still be together in the end.
You did such a great job on this, sweetie! I hope to read more of your work soon =D

*whimper*

Oh, ouch. Sammy thinking he's keeping it a secret and Dean knowing and letting it happen and Sammy following Dean.

*whimper*

That is so fucking sad and yet so amazing. You made me cry too...lol.

The implications are too shattering. And Dean doesn’t think he’s worth that kind of love. He is. He totally is. Poor baby. <3

Really beautifully executed, but angstyomg at the end. Wonderful, though!

part of me kinda makes me wanna say "fuck you" to you... cuz god, the pain. and i never say "fuck you" to people.. it's so harsh - but so was this. and the "fuck you" would be a total compliment. you broke me, right down to my soul.

so, yeah, darlin'. So when Sam’s lips brush against his and he hears the gun cock near his ear, he smiles.... oh... fuck you, gorgeous.

Two bullets..... damn! This was angsty as hell, but so good. I especially loved the "his Dean" line. Awesome fic.

Hey, I'd really appreciate a Wincest warning on this - it is really something that I don't enjoy accidentally reading.

OOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Crap, I've got tears in my eyes! I think my heart stopped.

This was painstakingly beautiful. At first I thought that Sam was going to shoot himself and release Dean, then I realized and I swear I stopped breathing.

I AM SO SAVING THIS ONE. OMG! Can I link it to a group?

*grabs tissues* *whimpers* Oh, that was so painfully good. *sniff* That last line broke me. Good job!

Wow, thats just an odd feeling......never thanked someone for breaking my heart before. *face palm*

How beautiful and hot at the same time :)

*single tear*

damn. well done. imma go cry now and tonight i'm gonna have to spend some serious time figuring out how to write up a scenario where the only answer isn't Dean dying...

so, you get double points -- points for good fic and points for inspiration.

oh damn...that one hit me in the gut.

Incredible ending! Depressing as all hell granted. But what I love about this is that you get it, really get what this deal is about. All these other stories that act as if it's just Dean's life at stake are getting to me. It's like they are purposely rewriting the deal so they can angst the way they want too. Sam will do anything he can to save Dean's life during the year but if it ends without a solution (hypothetically), it isn't about tearful farewells and it was all worth it and going on with life. Dean's soul will be in hell and honestly if it gets down to a few days that becomes more important. Only thing I'm not sure about here is if with Dean dying first if he would still go to hell, he would be free if Sam died first though- a story which I haven't even seen but is a pretty obvious way out. Honestly people, soul in hell for eternity, kinda important.
