Prompt(s): struggling; crying
Author's Note: Missing scene/tag to 8x20 Pac-Man Fever. I know we already got a brother hug in this episode but I wanted a little more okay? This is so short I'm sorry
Today's Whumpee: Charlie Bradbury and Dean Winchester
Charlie was crying in Dean's arms. Breaking down, everything washing over her. Sam was watching them, his eyes worried and curious. Dean rested his chin on Charlie's head as his eyes met his brother's.
His brother. Alive, safe, here. Dean couldn't get the images out of his mind: of his brother laying there in the dark room, sick, pale, ghostly looking. It terrified Dean. Seeing Sam like that, asleep, comatose, it's worse than Sam being injured, even worse than Sam being dead, because Dean can fix those. He can fix Sam's injuries, he can even fix Sam being dead, but he can't fix that. And it scares him more than he can say.
So as he held Charlie tightly with one arm, he didn't hesitate to stretch out the other and pull Sam into a little trio hug. Sam wrapped one arm around Dean, and the other around Charlie. Dean didn't know how long they must've been standing there. He only knew that he had two of the most important people in his life, tightly held in his arms at that moment. His little brother, and the girl who, in so many ways, was his little sister.
And Dean didn't want to ever let them go.
