Disclaimer: Dean and Ben belong to Eric Kripke

Summary: Ben's there for him...whether he's his real father or not.


Screaming. Fire. Torture.

"Please, god! don't hurt him!" he would've given anything to keep him safe. given anything to get him out of there. but, he promised.

"Sammy!" his brothers cries of pain forced him to stay asleep...but small hands pulled him toward conciousness.

"Dean," Ben whispered in his ear, "wake up"

Dean jolted awake to find the pre-teen's hands on his clammy ones.

"Another Nightmare?" He mumbled down at his practically father on the couch.

"Just a dream," Was all he said, "Just a dream"


so i know i haven't done one of these in a while and i will try to catch up but here is one with the word safe...so i hope you liked a little distaught dean and comforting young Ben Braeden (i hope i got his age right he'd be around 10 or 11 so Pre-Teen fits fairly well) and please review.
