The Promise
John sat in the wheelchair beside his unconscious son, watching him carefully; silently willing him awake. It had been two hours since the nurse brought him in, but Dean had yet to respond with so much as a twitch of his hand or flutter of an eyelid. Only machine beeps told the hunter his son was alive.
John rubbed a rough hand across his face as he let out a long breath, blinking to regain focus in his tired eyes. Slowly, he leaned forward to grasp Dean's bicep in a gentle and loving squeeze.
"I'm gonna fix this, kiddo. I swear."
