Summary: Sam and Dean renegotiate everything when Dean gets back from a year in Purgatory.
Sam is putting yet another floor board into place, reaching down for the nail gun when he hears it.
“Sam?”
He looks up knowing that just because it sounded exactly like how he remembers his brother used to say his name it can’t be, expecting to see Luis or maybe Julio checking in on him. But no. He is wrong. It is Dean. Or something that looks exactly like Dean. After all this time Dean is just standing there looking down at him with a hopeful look on his tired, still familiar, still beautiful face. Sam jumps up and into fighting stance prepared for anything.
