(Prompt #12: Forget-Me-Not) Zanahorias (PG, gen)
Title: Zanahorias
Pairing/Characters: Dean, Sam, OCs
Rating: PG
Summary: Everybody knew the white kid's name, and it was kind of okay, even if he could tell they were joking about him in rapid-fire Spanish sometimes. Miguel snuck the two of them some beer and some barbecue, wrapped an arm around Dean's shoulders, and just like that, he was part of the family, welcome at every birthday party they ever had.
Word Count: 797
Spoilers: None.
Prompt: #12, Forget-Me-Not: True Love, Memories.
Notes/Warnings: Only lightly betaed (thank you emmademarais!) Pre-series (technically memories of pre-series, but... to-may-to, to-mah-to.) And, um, probably the most important note--I'm very much white, so I'm not exactly an expert here. However, I did try to base some of this fic off of my own experiences growing up/living in a neighborhood largely made up of Latinos. I may have inadvertently mixed Salvadoran, Mexican and Puerto Rican cultures/traditions. My apologies if I have. :-) Oh, also, in an earlier draft, emmademarais thought Dean was making burritos; I tried to make it clearer, but in case I've still failed, what he's actually making are pupusas, a kind of stuffed tortilla from El Salvador.
Disclaimer: I own only the OCs. Sam, Dean and John Winchester are not mine; I'm just borrowing them for a little fun.
