I don't own Supernatural, Balthazar, or Sam. Their love is mine because for some reason the Supernatural writers never let them have a gay love affair. All the spelling and grammatical errors are also mine as I have't gont through and edited or beta'd this.
This story is for fun and not monetary gain. I don't think there are any spoilers in the story, except for Balthazar's death. There is a scene in which Balthazar heals Sam and it isn't instant. I felt that different angels should get different healing powers and because they are not bonded by love (like Dean and Cas) anymore there is no painless way to be healed. Also kind of a metaphor if you care to look into it deeper. Enjoy!
