Happy Birthday Brother
I'd follow you
To the end of the world if only you would ask me to
On and on we go, my brother I've got you
Nothing to stop us now, because we found in life
What's true
Oh my brother I'd follow you
And we had howl through the night
Call the stars by the fire shining on
Through the night
We will run, to the rising life and on
Through the night, burn the flames
The world will know our Names

YEAR 1999
JANUARY 24TH
Sam woke up in another motel with the sunlight planning a surprise for his brother's birthday. Dean was 20 years old, and he was probably the only one that was excited about that. Their father never remembered their birthdays, and Dean was accustomed to ignore the special date, taking a hunt to work with like any other day.
Sam woke up earlier than his brother and father, and once he picked some new underwear and clean clothes decided that later he would go and buy some beers and M&M'S. He could buy some "Busty Asian Beauties" too, but he was ashamed just thinking of the idea that the man or woman who was working in it would laugh at him. Once he was out of the shower, dressed and his hair was brushed, saw that the two men were still dreaming.
On his 15th birthday, Dean took him to a water park with some money that he had kept from the food money, given by his father. Being honest, they had had a blast and stayed from 10:00 AM to 19:00 PM hours. By that night, both were tired as hell, and when John knew that that supposed job was not a simple salt and burn, he got pissed. Dean confronted him and explained that that had been his idea. Both paid that mistake with some extra running time, cleaning the guns and washing their clothes, including his father's ones.
Dean seemed not to be scared of their dad, but he was, so on this birthday he would keep the same and usual surprise that they had given to each other almost every year.
Sam took his father's money from his coat's pocket and decided that it was time to go, before the men would wake up and ask questions..
It was 8:45 AM when he opened the door of the motel and saw his very furious family seeing him with angry faces
"Where have you been Sam? You know the drill. You go, you leave a note!"
"I… I'm Sorry… I didn't…"
"That won't fix anything Sam. We were worried about you! How could you do that to us? You know what's out there, and you didn't even tell us where you went! I think that I deserve some explanations, son"
"I went to bring us breakfast sir. Nothing more than that"
"Sam. Next time you do that I am gonna kick your ass. As your big brother, I am able to do that, so don't push me"
"I am sorry, ok?! I really am"
Sam stared at the men silent, giving them his famous puppy dog eyes, waiting to see if that trick still worked. Dean gave him a pissed look, but a little smile that vanished as soon as it appeared
"Dad, he just made a mistake. You remember that time when I did the same thing, and I was even younger than him?"
"I know what you are doing son. You have to stop doing that. Sam needs to face the consequences of his acts, and you can't keep protecting him. He's big boy now"
"Dad, come on. He has learned the lesson. Right Sammy… I mean Samuel?"
"Yes, sir (Little smile) I have learned my lesson. Next time I will leave a note. I promise"
"You two are impossible. I am serious boys. You need to be responsible for your own acts. Next time you'll run 15 more minutes than the usual timing, understand?"
"Yes, sir"
"If you defend your brother's mistakes, you will do the same thing Dean"
"Yes, sir"
John went to take a bath and both boys started laughing in silence. It was sort of funny to watch John get frustrated and trying to end the conversation. He was right, but at the same time, he was too strict, and all that they wanted to have (sometimes) was a little fun times in "serious" situations that shouldn't even happen.
"Listen Sammy. I am not getting in trouble because of you again, so next time I will just watch dad make you run til you are sweating and wash clothes. That'd be funny though, Samantha"
"Shut up Dean. I was not only bringing breakfast"
"What else could you be doing, huh? Do you have a girl around? Sammy the Hound Dog!"
"No. I was not doing that either"
"Then what? I am losing my patience here, dude"
"Happy birthday Dean!"
"What...? Oh, I forgot about it. I don't want to do anything Sammy. We have work to do and you know that"
"I know it. I knew that you were going to forget your birthday, so I brought you something"
Sam pointed the bag that he hid in one corner of the room when John and Dean were not looking at him, and saw how his older brother walked towards it. When he opened the plastic bag, saw an expensive beer that they could not always afford, and two bags of M&M'S.
"Thank you Sammy! This is great!"
"You are welcome Dean. Better hide that in your duffel before dad gets out of the bathroom. He'll be pissed"
"Do you doubt that? You know that I like you, right? You usually are a pain in the ass, but sometimes, you are not. Really man, thank you for everything you gave me. Where did you take the money from?"
"Umm… Dad's pocket?"
"You're a dead man, Sammy. I'll give him part of my money to compensate"
"Don't, Dean. I can face Dad. You don't have to…"
"Yes I do, Sam. What are big brothers for then?"
"Jerk"
"Bitch"
One minute after John came out of the bathroom with his hair wet and new clothes, saw the boys just sitting and watching TV with their breakfasts in hand.
John took his coffee and sat there with them. He had heard it all, but he didn't care. He had forgotten his older son's birthday (again), and later he'd say "I am sorry" for that. He was proud of his boys, and loved how much they cared about each other. However, even he would never say that, they knew that.
When they all finished eating and drinking, John showed them the next case that he had found in the newspaper. They would have to drive 12 hours to get there, but it did not matter, because it was just "another normal day"
