Living A Lie

Physical memory's an amazing thing. Even though Sam didn't feel sad or worried, his body knew how to widen his eyes just slightly, add a bit of moisture, and pull lips tightly together in response to Dean. It seemed odd, yet still easy.

He certainly knew how to smile. He could feel the tightness around his cheekbones and the upturn of his lips. He didn't necessarily feel happy, but he knew that he should smile, so he did.

Sam turned to Dean and smiled again, trying to stall in the inevitable. He knew Dean would figure him out someday. Just not today.
