Length:50723 Summary: Sam Winchester lived the first six months of his life in a happy family; the next twelve years as John Winchester's only son, and the last decade as an orphan. He's supposed to die at twenty-two trying to save the woman he loves from a fire, because he doesn't have a brother to pull him back. But the night Sam meets his Reaper he discovers that Death is overly fond of pop-culture references, too beautiful to be real, and reluctant to kill him.
Reccer's notes: This is the kind of story where the readers know the twist way before the characters do; but keep on reading anyways because it's a really great story, it's a lot of fun, a lot of feelings and really a thoroughly good story.
