Chapter 5- Realization (at last)

By the time Dean stepped out of the shower, Sam had fallen asleep on the bed. Dean saw his younger brother sleeping with a smile on his face, and felt his own lips curl up into semblances of a smile.

Dean then walked over to Sam and jabbed him between his ribs, hoping to wake him up.

Sam felt like someone was stabbing him. Even before Sam fully opened his eyes, he had his elder brother pinned underneath him, in a death grip. He was panting heavily when he jerked his eyes open, fully conscious. For the Winchesters, it was always reflexes before reasoning.

"Dean? What the fuck? You could've just waked me up man! There was no need for you to stab me!" Sam breathed heavily.

Dean could feel his brother's breath against his face. He wanted nothing more than to lean in and taste his brother's lips.

"Sammy… let go of me!" Dean said, before he could lose all of his self-control he felt every muscle react to Sam's touch.

Sam felt the same, and released the vice-like grip on his brother. It was now Sam's turn to blush.

"Umm… sorry Dean", Sam apologized, only half-meaning it.

"That's okay. So hey, the bathroom's free if you wanna take a shower or something" Dean said.

Sam removed his shirt in front of Dean, and was searching for a towel. It was nothing new, but Dean gasped as he noticed his brother's rock hard abs.

"What is it Dean?" Sam asked, turning around to face Dean, hearing his brother's gasp.

"Uhhh… its nothin' ", Dean said, and left the room after hurriedly grabbing a shirt from the pile of clothes on his bed. Correction, their bed.

Sam Winchester was very very confused.

Meanwhile, Dean was sitting in the Impala and thinking about his brother. And this time, not in a brotherly way. Dean was thinking about his brothers pale skin, abs, his gargantuan frame, broad shoulders, and the anti-possession tattoo on his chest. He'd never noticed it, but his brother had grown up to a hot guy. A very, very hot guy, for that matter. Realization suddenly struck Dean- he was in love with his Sammy. Again, not in a brotherly way.

Dean Winchester was in love with Sam Winchester.
