Behind the curtain.

SPN 100 Drabble, word: hide.
Summary: He is going to be a hunter. Hunters don't hide, do they?
Set in the past, when Dean is about 16 or 17.


He's become a master of hiding. It's his second nature. Sometimes he doesn't even know who he is anymore. The grim crusader fighting the forces of evil? The older brother taking care of his sibling with infinite devotion? The cocky daredevil driving girls crazy just by his smile and a raise of his eyebrow? Or the boy who's lost his mother – and the better part of his father in the wake. Who has constant nightmares about failing as a hunter. Who sometimes wants to beat his brat of a brother. Who can't tell anyone how he feels. Lonely. And afraid.
