Sam was at Stanford, miles away from his brother. And he was fine with that - it had been his choice, after all. But sometimes, just sometimes... he might miss home a little. Luckily, the distance between his brother and him was truly just one phone call.

Sam had wanted it to be a special birthday for Dean. The 24th January proved to both of them that sometimes life just had the best timing.

"Just... wait here." That was what Sam had asked. So, Dean did. He waited right there, in the kitchen, for his brother to return. To pick up the pieces of a once again broken heart. Because that's what big brothers are for, really - right? Sequel to S02E16: "Heart"

There were hundreds, thousands of reasons for siblings to love each other. Billions of ways to show that love, prove that tehy cared. For Sam and Dean Winchester, it would always be the little things.
