Summary: Sam writes to Dean sometime after February.
Dean
I know I'm a bit late in replying but you know how it is, work and everything. Thanks for the card and the Christmas presents (or not). The cereal was great and the t-shirt, well what can I say, very funny. I'd have loved to see you buying it, or did you say it was for your brother? Jess saw the funny side of it – even if I didn't. I think the two of you would get on. I was just grateful that you hadn't sent it in time for me to take it with us to her parents. Can you imagine what they would have thought if I'd opened it in front of them, I mean Dean, a t-shirt with 'I can't even think straight' on it? What gets into you man? It's as bad as the porn mag when I first got here. Will you grow up already?
Christmas was unbelievable, completely over the top. Jess' family don't realise how lucky they are but I had a great time and they were really good to me while we stayed. I would never have believed that people would have a tree that size inside the house and to say it was covered in decorations would be an understatement. Virtually the whole house was decked out and they had enough food to sink a battleship.
Hope the job in Afton went well and that you and Dad are okay. You don't mention him in your cards. Is that because you think I don't want to know? I guess even after everything I still want him to be okay.
"Another year, another motel, another grey January day, another sucky diner, another job", maybe you're outgrowing doing this, maybe it's time to look for something else. You know even if you don't come to join me and it would probably be better if you didn't right now, you don't have to keep working with Dad, you could do something else. There are loads of ways out if you look hard enough Dean; you just have to get your act together. Think about it, if you settled down and got a proper job, maybe it would be easier for us to hook up sometime. Things would be easier all round. Do you know what it's like, not being able to tell my friends anything about you and Dad or my past? If you had a proper job, it would be better.
I have been inundated with assignments and am already having to think about what to do next when this course finishes. I'm thinking of staying and carrying on studying here. It will make it easier to be with Jess.
Take care, Dean. Keep safe.
