Playing House Alone

by Winchesteralism

Dean enlisted in the year 1942. Cas; his roommate, childhood best friend, and best thing to ever happen to him writes every week. Struggling with his own feelings and effort to keep both of them human, Cas stays right by Dean's side- no matter the distance. Dean may have entered the war by himself; but Cas makes sure that he doesn't have to go through it alone.

Dean,

On Monday the papers said that the Germans were using gas to kill the Jews sent to "the East". I. People, Dean. People are sending women and children, boys and girls, husbands and wives to camps. They're ripping them out of their homes and shipping them to factories in cattle cars to slaughter them.

I- I didn't fully support the war. I wanted us to stay out of it. But Dean. These are people. Families. I have a friend, over in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Her name is Anna. I met her father at a journalist convention a few years back and had the pleasure of meeting his daughter. She was beautiful- and even at the age of 9 had the most gorgeous red hair I had ever seen. It was so unusual for a German. But Dean… her family is Jewish. I've… I've tried contacting them for the past couple of days but I haven't heard anything.

If anything had happened to them…

Dean. I need you to win the war. This has to stop. It- it has to stop.

See you soon, Dean. But not before you punch Hitler in the face.
