Continuing the Farm Verse! (In which the boys buy a farmhouse in smalltown Iowa, with money they inherited from Bobby -- the Master Post is
here.) It's the boys' first Christmas in a home of their own, they've got a tree waiting to be decorated, and there's snow falling outside. The perfect holiday -- or it would be, if they weren't so entirely alone.
When Dean finally returned to the house, Sam was sprawled on the couch, one gray-socked foot propped up on the coffee table, watching some game show on TV. The dog was wedged in alongside him, head resting on Sam's thigh.
Alongside the TV stood the tree the lot guy had agreed to sell them for forty bucks, a ratty thing maybe five feet tall. As of yet it had no decorations; Sam had insisted they do the decorating on Christmas Eve, after dinner, after it had gotten dark. Said that would make it "special."
If Sam suggested they string popcorn and made chains out of colored construction paper, Dean thought, he was going to lose his mind.
