            It’s the easiest thing he’s ever done. Easier than setting bones on fire, easier than Latin chants, easier than taking Sammy to the park and sparring with Dad—easy as breathing, and just as instinctual.
            He worries for a moment—just one, jagged heartbeat—what that says about him, but he’s got things to do. Gotta get Sammy up, gotta get Dad to safety, have to get gone before the authorities arrive.
            He stares at the body for just a second—some guy, some guy possessed by a demon, some guy with no control over his actions. And Dean killed him. Shot him through the head without hesitating, without flinching, without thinking.
            Because he was a threat to Sammy. Because he was hurting Sammy. And Dean grips Sam, pulls him up, supports most of his weight just until Sam’s balanced again. Helps Sam over to Dad and they collect him, too, then are swiftly on their way. 
            Dean doesn’t look back. Can’t. Sam’s too important, and Dad, and getting somewhere safe before the demon comes. 
            It’s the easiest thing he’s ever done, taking care of his family—no matter the cost. Easier than flirting, easier than breathing—so completely easy.

By the way, I read your story about Dean being lost during Katrina yesterday.

You made me cry.

Yeah, I said it.

You got a real gift for killing the boy off!
