Sam stared toward the horizon, waves cresting in the distance. He felt Dean's presence long before his brother spoke.

"You okay, Sammy?"

"You want me to go?"

Sam shook his head, tears filling his eyes.

"Whatever you need, Sammy, I'm here."

As Dean stood silently by his side, Sam finally found the comfort he needed.
