Softly Spoken Lies
"When you said those words to me I thought my world would fall apart." I don't even really care about you. Dean recalled that day so clearly, even though it happened months ago. Sam stared at him with the very same face and hair, but with such different eyes. They were empty and hollow. His lack of soul made them so. And Dean could still not believe that Sam meant those words.
"Even after everything we had been through. The love we had, the memories we shared, the fights with each other, physical or no. Each memory was important. A whole year passed and I finally get you back. But this is what you've become? And to me of all people? You're not really Sam, not anymore. But I'm going to bring him back no matter what, because I know this is real love and that we were meant for each other. Nothing and no one will keep us apart, ever." The door slammed shut and Dean jumped, swiveling around to see Sam staring at him.
"Checking yourself out in the mirror Dean?" Sam smirked at him. Dean frowned and lowered his gaze to the ground. The speech he had practiced so hard on for weeks flew out of his mind. Suddenly, he was too afraid to say anything to the man that he knew all his life. The man that was always constant yet became the man that had changed. Dean turned and laid down on his bed, facing the other direction while Sam laughed and headed for the shower. Dean didn't want soulless Sam to see the tears building in his eyes as Sam washed the scent of another meaningless girl away. Because Dean knew that Sam wouldn't care and it would only hurt worse when he would reject Dean for the millionth time just to see the look on his face.
