Chapter 14

Dean set there in silence for a moment. He couldn't believe the story that Priestly had just told him. Sam had been beat…and he hadn't even called Dean to ask for help? Dean knew that if Sam would've called, he would've been there in a heartbeat to kick the guys ass from here to the moon and back. No one touched his little brother like that and got away with it. No one.

"What I don't understand is why he didn't call me." Dean said. "I mean, before he left for college, we were so close. Why wouldn't he come to me if he was in danger?"

"As much as I would love to answer these questions Dean, I can't read Sam's mind, so I don't know what he was thinking. Those are questions you'll have to ask him later on. But right now, I think that it's best if you don't…" Then, as if on cue, Sam started screaming.

"No! Don't hurt me! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to disobey you!" Sam yelled out. He was thrashing around in the bed, as if he was trying to free himself from Jesse's invisible hands. "You're hurting me!" He yelled out. Priestly quickly went to Sam. Dean was hot on his heels.

"Sammy!" Priestly yelled. "Listen to me. Whatever you're seeing isn't real. I'm real, Dean's real. Jesse's not here Sam. Jesse's not here." Priestly gently touched the bruises on Sam's head. "Jesse's not here." He whispered. Sam opened his eyes and curled closer to Priestly.

"Don't let him hurt me anymore." Sam told Priestly. "Please Priest. Please don't let him hurt me anymore."

"I won't Sammy." Priestly told Sam. He looked at Dean, who was set on the edge of the bed by Sam. Dean was amazed by how sweet Priestly was to his little brother. "Just go back to sleep. Dean and me will be here when you wake up young Prince." Priestly added. Sam soon drifted off to sleep.

"I'm not leaving him ever again." Dean said. He gave Priestly a look, telling him there was no argument.

"Fine." Priestly said. "He needs his brother after all." Dean nodded his head and smiled. He always got his way.

Priestly really takes care of Sam. Let's make sure that they stay together. Please review!
