"How can you be so calm about having six months left to live?" Sam asked.
Dean sighed. Sam just couldn't drop it. Dean took a slow breath and focused on not allowing his fingers to curl into a fist. He shrugged, avoiding eye contact with his brother.
"There's a lot of living that can be done in six months, Sammy, and I'm trying to live it!" Dean gulped down his shot, and shot a grin in Sam's direction.
Green eyes met hazel for a moment before Sam turned away.
Dean saw the tears, but what could he do?
For now: another shot.
