SPN: Sam/Dean drabbles

[errant-jane.livejournal.com]

For lazy_daze, who requested Sam/Dean, their most important memories of each other.

Dean

Dean has always maintained a certain level of willingness to sacrifice his dignity on the alter of making Sam smile, starting with making ridiculous faces that made Sam laugh as a baby. Things escalated as Sam got older, more emo and subsequently harder to please.

It earned Dean more than one detention and cost him more than one willing lay, nearly got him arrested twice. It's always worth it, because every time Dean succeeds, every time Sam smile, laughs, forgets all of the other crap for just one second, those are the moments when Dean remembers that Sam is his.

Sam

When Sam was little, he believed that Dean could do anything, despite evidence to the contrary.

The first time Dean came back from a hunt wounded, he only smiled, dismissed the wound as nothing. The first time a girl he liked shot him down, Dean shrugged and said she didn't know what she was missing.

Sam remembers every outrageous lie Dean's ever told, the comfort and safety offered in every promise Dean's ever made him. Like the words themselves are protection because Dean will be invincible if Sam needs it.

Part of Sam still believes that Dean can do anything.
