Prompt: FutureLucifer!Sam/Future!Dean, "He's in here, you know, screaming for you."


When Dean rushes into the garden, that special gun in hand, he doesn't turn. "Hey, big brother," he says, caressing a rose. "I've missed you."

"Shut up, demon," Dean hisses, but he smells the fear and despair and hate.

And the regret. So much regret. Dean is drowning in it.

"He's in here, you know," Lucifer murmurs, glancing over his shoulder. "Sammy is screaming for you." He smiles gently and cants his head, slowly pivoting in place. "He's begging you to get out of here. To leave and not look back. He still loves you, Dean."

Lucifer plucks a rose as he strides forward. "He did it for you," Lucifer tells him. "Sam said yes to save your life."

Dean blinks, swallows, the gun dropping from his fingers. "What?"

"You shouldn't have come here, Dean," Lucifer says. "Sam will never forgive me for what happens next."

There is resignation in Dean's eyes. Sam never stops screaming.
