"Dean you can't do this"

"Sam it's too late. I already applied and I can't get out"

"Why did you do this?"

"I did this for us so we can have a better life Sam"

"Our life was fine until you went and joined the army"

"I don't want our life to be fine. I want you and BJ to have everything we never had"

"Speaking of BJ what the hell am I supposed to tell him. He's seven years old and you're leaving him, leaving us"

"I'm not leaving you"

"Yes you are"

"Sammy just listen to me"

"No I'm going to make this clear. If you leave were over"

"Sam-"

"Daddy"

Sam and Dean turn to see a sleepy BJ rubbing his eyes. Sam walks over to him and picks him up. "Hey buddy"

BJ looks up at Sam "Why are you crying daddy"

Sam wipes his eyes with his free arm "Nothing, why are you up"

"You were fighting again"

"Well I'm sorry we woke you, but you have to go back up ok"

"Can you tuck me in and read me a story"

Sam smiles "Yeah" Sam puts BJ down "Go on up I'll be right here"

"Ok" BJ runs upstairs.

Sam leans back on the wall and looks back at Dean. "I won't be that guy who sits up every night waiting for that phone call saying you're not coming home. I'm not going to wait on you Dean. If you leave were over"

"Sam"

"Choose right now. Is it us or the army" Dean looks down and that's enough for Sam. He takes off his wedding ring, puts it on the table and walks upstairs without a word.

Dean walked over to the counter and picks up the ring. He slides it on his finger with his own. He looks at a photo on the wall of Bobby Jr. Sam, Bobby and him. Reaching out and touches the picture he cries to himself. "I'm sorry Sammy"

Present

Dean steeped off the plane with a huge smile on his face. He was so happy to be home for good. Dean rented a cab and went straight to Sam's, glad that he still lived in the same house. Grabbing his bags he headed to the door. He sets his bags down and knocks on the door. The door opened and Dean was greeted by those hazel eyes that he missed so much. "Hey Sammy I'm home"
