A Friendly Little Game

by Swellison

Sam laid down his cards. "Full house: threes over nines."

"Nice, but"—Dean flourished his cards—"Four queens. I win." The winner got Saturday night out; the

loser had to clean everything: the living room, dining room, kitchen, their bedroom and the weapons.

"You cheated!" Sam growled.

"Temper, temper," Dean tsked. "Y'know the ladies love me." He leaned forward to collect the pot.

POW! Sixteen-year-old Sammy's growing-longer-every-day arm lashed out, connecting with Dean's jaw in a vicious right hook.

Dean groaned. He couldn't date Nicole tonight, with a face like this. He lunged, tackling Sammy, determined to get some payback.

A/N: Posted slightly early because I've got a dinner engagement at the regular time. Thank you to everyone for last week's birthday drabbles, they were a

fun and varied read:-)
