SHOUTOUTS\ANSWER

Heather: Oh, thank God! A reviewer. I thought this story totally bit. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

DISCLAIMER

Life With Derek belongs to Disney. Supernatural belongs to the WB. Seeing how it's nearly Christmas, I decided to put it in.

Meanwhile, back at the MacDonald\Venturi household, Sam and Dean Winchester were busily putting up Christmas decorations. At first it had been rough going, seeing how they had no clue where anything was, but trial and error had served them well.

"Tell me again, why we're doing this," Dean requested.

"Because Dean, it's nice," Sam retorted.

"Well, I understand Casey, but why do we have to be nice to that little brat of a kid, Derek?" Dean grumbled.

"Oh, cut him some slack, Dean," Sam scolded. "It's not like he had actually seen a Drakon before," he continued.

"Whatever. I still think---" Dean said.

"Zip it," Sam interrupted. The boys continued to decorate. Suddenly, Sam noticed an old photograph. It was a little boy, his baby brother, and their parents. Sam smiled wistfully. He had never known his mother except for pictures and what Dad and Dean had told him. Turning the picture over he saw the words, The Venturis---Abby, George, Derek, and Edwin.

"Hey, Sammy. Whatcha got there?" Dean wondered.

"Nothin'. Just found something of Casey's stepdad's," Sam said quickly, putting the photo back. "And it's Sam," he corrected. The boys continued to decorate.
