Fic: Bring it on Home
Feb. 4th, 2014 10:34 amLength: About 1100 words
Rating: PG for language
Characters: Sam Winchester, Dean Winchester
Spoilers: through 9.12
Notes: Occurs immediately after
kalliel's “The Lemon Song" (read it here.) "Bring it on Home,” continuing her title meme, is the last song on Led Zeppelin II.
Sam enters the room and sits on one of the beds. He leans against the headboard, stretching his legs out. He doesn’t take his boots off – he’s not ready to get that comfortable, not ready to make that commitment to staying here. Dean assumes the same position on the other bed, and Sam waits. Waits for Dean to turn on the TV, announce he’s going out to get food (beer, laid, whatever), or do any of the other things he does to signal that This Conversation Is Not Happening Right Now, And Maybe Not Ever. But he doesn’t. He sits and he stares at his thumb and he starts picking at a blister (and oh, there’s a good analogy for this conversation, thinks Sam) and just when Sam can’t stand it any more, when he’s about to say something, something that would almost certainly not help, Dean speaks.
