acidquill track: Socialburn #6 "One More Day"
notes: and hey, another one already. looks like this's gonna go alright. Dean-centric, wincesty flavor.
It’s not that he’s selfish, well not much. But -- mornings with Sam’s arm warm across his chest, sun filtering through the curtains and the light staying right there across Sam’s nose -- there are some things that Dean wants to keep just for himself, safe and locked up until he needs them later.
When everything goes to hell -- and it will: monsters and demons and spirits and blood -- Dean needs to remind himself how fucking lucky he is. The two of them will win, of course, because Dean can’t imagine not coming out on top. They’ll limp back to the motel of the week and suck it up and do it all over again when someone needs them; that’s the job. But they’ll be alive; they’ll be together.
And some things are just worth fighting for, fighting down and dirty with no rules and no prisoners. Things like waking up to Sam every morning, fucking each other like it’s the last thing ever, falling asleep in a tangle at night. Sam’s smile. His laugh. The feel of Sam’s fingers around his wrist. If everyone had someone like that, then damn, wouldn’t that be the best thing ever? And who could blame him for trying to keep something so precious all for himself -- so Dean fights a war and takes cherishes loves what he can get between the battles.
