Title: Running Shoes and Pancakes
Characters: Sam and Dean
Rating: pg
Word Count: 100
Summary: Sam loves running, sometimes to get away from Dean, sometimes to get back to him.
Sam loves his running shoes because he loves to run. It clears his mind, it allows him to just ‘be’ for a while. To feel the wind on his face, the sun if he’s lucky and rain if he’s not.
It gives him respite from Dean when they’re sharing motel rooms. Sam loves him, but Dean can be so irritating, and he doesn’t understand why anyone would run if they weren’t being chased, or chasing something.
But when they’re at home, Sam loves returning from an early morning run to find Dean making pancakes for him in the Bunker kitchen.
Title: The Best Part of The Day
Characters: Sam and Dean
Rating: pg
Word Count: 100
Summary: The new mattress is a huge hit.
It’s the best part of the day, stretching his long body out on his new mattress. It’s so soft but firm and moulds around his body, supporting his tired limbs. He never finds it easy to sleep, but even lying awake staring at the ceiling is better now, before he eventually drops off to sleep.
It’s much better than any motel bed’s mattress he’s slept on - no strange stains or smells for a start - and it’s so friggin’ nice to have something new and unused, except by him.
He’s pleased Dean talked him into getting a mattress that remembers him.
Title: Power Shower
Characters: Dean
Rating: pg
Word Count: 100
Summary: Dean loves the Bunker’s shower.
Dean really appreciates having hot water and a power shower, after years dodgy motel showers with poor water pressure. And growing up, he was always last in. Dad needed to soothe his tired - often battered - body with the hottest water, then Sammy went before Dean, of course, leaving Dean the tepid water.
The Bunker shower is always hot, always powerful, always perfect. Dean doesn’t really understand how the Bunker gets water and electricity, and right now he doesn’t care. He sings Simple Man loudly as he washes his hair with Sam’s special shampoo.
Man, he loves this shower.
