Reccer's notes: This is a rather heartbreaking story set in Season 2, right after John died. I love how Sam and Dean kind of aren’t on the same page. Dean’s angry and resentful and Sam just doesn’t want to invoke Dean’s anger which leads to a waterfall of dominos crashing. The best part is Dean’s turn around and how he gently cares for Sam every step of the way.
[Short excerpt]"Alright, Sammy," he crooned, softly. "Don't try to talk, just nod your head, ok?" Dean watched his little brother for any sign of awareness and barely stifled a sigh of relief when the nod finally came. It was just a slight tilt of the head, but that was enough.
