Note: I strayed from the prompt a little. The story took a life of its own.

"Mom? Dad?"

You rub your eyes, making your way down the stairs. It's late and you were asleep, but a loud thump woke you. Usually your parents are awake by now, but maybe their schedule has changed while you were away at school.

There's no response to your call. You frown, reaching the bottom of the stairs. The cold of the hardwood is a bit of a shock against your bare feet, but you ignore it. There's a light on in the front room.

"Mom?" you say again, starting down the hall. "Is everything okay?"

You turn into the front room and a scream rips itself from your throat.

The man crouched over your parents' bodies rises to tower over you. A cruel grin crosses his face.

"Hello, Y/N," he says. "Sorry about the mess. I'm Sam, by the way. We're going to have so much fun."

You wake with a scream, shooting upright in bed.

"Whoa, hey, you're okay!" Dean says, hands on your shoulders. You take a deep breath, eyes wide. "You're okay," he repeats. "Just a nightmare, that's all."

You nod, leaning a little into his touch. "I'm alright, Dean. That one just tends to get to me a little worse than others. Thanks for being here, though."

"You were screaming loud enough to wake the dead," Dean tells you, stepping back to sit on the edge of his bed. "Do you want to talk about it?"

"No," you say with a firm shake of your head. "I'd rather not. I'm just going to go back to sleep."

"Okay," he says. "But don't hesitate to wake me up if you need anything."

"Thanks, Dean."

You lay down, burrowing under your blankets again, and turn your back to him. You hear him get settled in his own bed, and then the soft change in his breathing as he slips back into sleep.

You and Dean reach the Bunker the next evening. You're excited to see this "Batcave" the older Hunter has been going on about since you asked if he knew about a place you could lay low for a while, seeing as you kind of pissed of a few Demons. So when he pulls the Impala into the garage, you're practically bouncing in your seat with excitement.

The garage alone is amazing. You stare around the room at all the older models. You just know this is in Dean's Top Five Favorite Rooms.

"This is amazing," you tell him, helping him get your duffels.

"Just wait until you see the rest," he chuckles. "My brother's not here right now- he texted me earlier and said he was going out. So it's just us for tonight."

You're a little nervous to meet Dean's brother. You've heard stories about the younger Winchester, who, uncomfortably enough, shares the name of your parents' killer. But you know it's a different Sam- apparently Sam Winchester is both an incredible Hunter and a very gentle man. So you likely have nothing to worry about.
