Website after website, phone-call after phone-call—and nothing. No information, no ideas, no help at all. Dead end, one after another. Hope faint and fleeting.

Dean alone in the hospital room, hooked up to all them machines. Resigned to his death. Waiting for it.

But Sam dials contact after contact, determined. Dean’s always been there for him. Always. No matter what he’s needed, no matter what he’s wanted. Dean let him go when he asked and Dean caught him when he fell after Jess, and he will not fail Dean now.

He calls Dad and gets the voicemail, leaves a half-true message, angry and hurting and terrified out of his mind.

He can’t lose Dean. He just can’t.

Hangs up the phone, tosses it, stares at empty space. Tries to imagine a life without Dean—and can’t.

Long as he remembers—longer—Dean has been there. Steady, sure, strong. Dean was forever, certain as the sun. And now—felled by a tragic, almost-never goddamned accident.

A world without Dean is beyond comprehension. Unable to contemplate. Impossible to fathom.

Seeing Dean lying there—still, silent, pale. Broken. Sam froze then moved, couldn’t remember what to do.

Could barely remember to breathe.

Firstly, Squee!*loves* Secondly,...who is Johnny, *sings song I remember from way back when.*

Sam's desperation and panic is just so well capture here.

Couple little things:

Hangs up the phone, tosses is, stares at empty space. I think you meant, "tosses 'it'"

And this line: Dean was forever, certain as the sun sorta sounds like Dean's already dead. *sob* I think you meant it to be in present tense like the rest.

K, more fics like this, please.

*big grin*

Johnny be their daddy.

Thanks for catching that! *facepalm*

No, the "Dean was forever" is correct. He's remembering back to when he was little.

*facepalm* You know I actually read throug it like twice, going, Where's Johnny? LOL. And never once did I think , well of course, they call him Dad. LOL. K, so maybe I really do need that nap.

Hmmm, I need like three or four or ten more of these from "Faith", K?

Nice job capturing Sam's angst.

I especially liked this line:

A world without Dean is beyond comprehension. Unable to contemplate. Impossible to fathom.

*hugs Sam*
