Thanks again for the reviews. I really enjoy hearing the different comments.

Brothers

Chapter ten

Sam lay in bed as tears ran down his face. His brother didn't want him. He swallowed hard trying not to let Dean hear him. Maybe he was retarded and that's why his brother wanted to take him back to the hospital. I'm going to find Dad that's what I'll do Sam thought. He knew Dean had said their mom was dead but their dad was out there somewhere. Maybe he'll want me. Sam had no idea why Dean was so mad. All he knew was that some man jumped out of the car and tried to steal his doughnuts so why was Dean so mad. Maybe the man wasn't a bad man but was only hungry. He knew what he would do, he'd wait till Dean went to sleep and then he'd leave and he'd never find him. Then Dean would be happy because he wouldn't be stuck with him.

Later that afternoon

Dean made Sam get out of bed and they went out to a diner and got something to eat. Dean tried to talk to Sam but Sam turned away determined not to talk to him. Dean tried to explain to him that the men were bad and that he got upset because he thought they were going to hurt him but Sam didn't want to hear it. All he remembered was that his brother had said he was stupid and that he wanted to take him back to the hospital, and that hurt him, he had thought Dean had liked him. He looked over at Dean and saw that he was looking at him. Sam turned away as he blinked back tears.

Dean knew he had hurt Sam's feelings and tried to apologize to him the best he could. He loved his brother and would die for him but he always had a hard time expressing his feelings. He knew Sam was thinking like a ten years old and would probably pout the rest of the day then forget all about it tomorrow. Dean knew that Sam would be safer at the hospital and maybe then he could hunt down the bastards that had hurt his brother without having to worry about him. He knew Sam wouldn't like it but it was the best thing for now.

"Sam…I'm going to take you to the hospital tomorrow. Don't worry I won't let you there for long. There's just something I have to do and I have to do it alone."

Sam looked back at Dean his lip quivering. He was terrified to go back to the hospital. What if Dean never came back for him? What if they kept him forever?

"P-P-Please don't take me b-b-back there. I'll be g-g-good…I p-p-promise." Sam said softly his eyes glistening with tears.

"It's the best thing for now Sam. It'll just be for a few days I promise." Dean's heart broke for his brother; he looked just like a kid whose puppy had died. But he knew he had no choice, he had to put Sam some place safe so he could track down the men who did this to him.

"I'm g-g-going out to the c-c-car." Sam said as he ran out of the diner and jumped in the car trying to hide his tears.

"Damn it Sammy there you go again, taking off without me." Dean said to himself as he threw money down on the counter top and ran after his brother.

Later that night

They watched TV then went to bed. Sam waited till he could hear Dean breathing heavy and knew he was asleep then got out of bed and quickly got dressed. He couldn't chance taking any money because Dean had fallen asleep with his clothes on and with his wallet in his pocket. Sam reached in his own pocket and found a few dollars left from buying the doughnuts, it would have to do. If he only bought one hamburger a day the money would last at least for a few days and maybe by then he would find their dad. He was going to just slip out but decided to write Dean a note. He looked around till he found some motel stationary and jotted down a quick note then put it on his pillow. He glanced back at Dean with tears in his eyes then left.

The next morning

Dean woke up and immediately looked over at Sam's bed expecting to find him fast asleep. When he saw the note he jumped out of bed and grabbed it.

Dean,

I know you don't like me so I'm leaving. I'm going to find dad and live with him if he wants me. Don't try to find me because you won't. Goodbye.

Sam

"Damn it Sammy!" Dean threw the note down and grabbed his car keys. He had no idea how much of a head start Sam had but he knew he had to find him. The men who had shot Sam were out there waiting to finish the job. Why had he yelled at his brother? He knew Sam wasn't thinking clearly and was just trying to do a nice thing by getting him doughnuts. He felt a cold chill shoot through his heart as tears filled his eyes; he pressed on the accelerator and sped out of the motel's parking lot praying he'd find his brother before it was too late.
