Hi! I actually couldn't decide on what idea I liked better, so I wrote both. Please let me know what you think! Both drabbles are exactly 100 words.

Big Brother Cure

Sam snapped alert, eyes narrowing in the darkness, gun solace in his hand. He surrendered to his insomnia. Flinching at sounds of restless slumber in the neighboring bed, he wondered how he'd forgotten that Dean alive. He was whole, only alittle weak and feverish.

He hadn't absored it yet. Sam hoped he never would. It was a exulting surprise, a miraculous gift every time he looked over, in the Impala, in the diner.

Sam crawled beside him, soaking in his big brother, leather and gunpowder. He wasn't losing him again.

The world fell away, blurring from the pull of sleep.


Little Brother Promise

Dean rolled up his jeans and hooked his arms under Sam's. He hoisted, lifted and lowered, unused to Sam's bulk. The strangled gasp of pain and shock of cold made Dean's stomach hurt. The icy water numbed his feet, and he'd hoped it would do something for Sam's battered side. It was doing nothing for his anger.

"You push me out of the way again, Sam, I'll soak your ass myself."

Sam's face was pale, eyes bloodshot slits. "You're not dying for me again. I don't care what it takes."

"And if it takes you?"

Sam shrugged. "So be it."
