"How do you feel about cats?"

"Cats?" Sam echos, confused.

"Yeah, cats. How do you feel about them?"

He shrugs. "They're alright, I suppose. They make Dean sneeze, so I've never spent a lot of time around them."

You nod thoughtfully. "Makes sense."

"Why do you ask?"

"Just wondering."

"Cas, is it possible for an Angel to cure someone of their allergies?"

"Yes. Why do you wish to know?"

"Just curious."

These conversations are why you're in town the morning of Sam's thirty-second birthday, collecting the final part of your gift to the younger Winchester.

One of his birthday wishes was to sleep in, so you're not concerned about missing out on any of the fun. Dean plans to bring Sam a brunch in bed around eleven. After that is presents, so Sam will have the afternoon the enjoy his new things. You know several of Cas' gifts are books and one of Dean's is season 2 of Game of Thrones.

As you drive back to the Bunker, you can't help feeling nervous. What if he doesn't like his gift? What if he makes you take it back? Sam is far from cruel- he would be nice about it- but still. You really want to make this special. After all, it's the five year anniversary of when you met the Winchesters.

You finally arrive at the Bunker. Dean is in the kitchen working on a brunch, so it's easy to sneak the gift to your room. You pull the mother presents, already wrapped, from under your bed and carry them down the hall to set them by Sam's door. The final piece you keep in your room.

The rest of the morning passes as quickly. You and Cas help Dean with brunch. Once it's all ready, you load it onto trays and head to Sam's room.

"Rise and shine, Sammy!" Dean says, pushing the door open.

Sam wakes quickly at the smell of food. His eyes go wide when he sits up and sees the food on the trays.

"Food," he says, reaching for it with grabby hands. Even at thirty-nine, he's still a child.

Dean laughs and hands over the tray he's carrying. Sam digs in immediately. It's not his usual healthy food, but he doesn't seem to mind too much. It's Dean's cooking, after all.

"This is so good," he says around a mouthful of food. "Seriously, Dean."

Dean laughs, pulling the chair from Sam's desk over to the bed and sitting in it, using Sam's bed as a makeshift table for the other trays of food.

Breakfast is indeed fantastic. Dean really out did himself. There's eggs and bacon and sausage and toast and, your personal favorite, hash browns. Between the food and Sam's good mood, brunch is a great meal. However, it's over all too soon and it's suddenly present time.

Dean goes first. He gives Sam Game of Thrones season 2, some new shirts, and a set of Sam's prefered shampoo and conditioner. Cas gives him a big stack of lore books, some of which are in languages you don't recognize. Sam's excited grin as he flips the first one open both warms your heart and makes your stomach twist.
