Back To the Basics
By Swellison
Sam's gaze shifted from the clock's 11:57 to Dean, plunked in the motel room chair, half-empty bottle of Jack in hand. Dean had readily agreed to skipping the New Year's Eve bars and gone straight to the alcohol.
"We've lost everyone, now. Dad." Dean took a swig, staring at his left shoulder. "Cas." His voice caught. "Bobby."
Sam strode into the bathroom, rummaged inside his shaving kit, then returned to stand determinedly in front of Dean. "No, we haven't. We've gone back to the basics. You and me." He held out his hand, exposing Dean's amulet necklace. "Together. Like always."
A/N: Happy New Year to our bustling drabble community, still going strong despite the vagaries and obstacles of FanFiction. This week's drabble was inspired by (or purloined from) Ness's story, New Year's Resolution;-) Thanks, Ness, for inadvertently powering my drabble. If you're looking for Red, check out my Stanford drabbles, A Door Opens.
Please review. One of my resolutions is better communications, online and in-person;-)
