All You Did was Save my Life

Adam

Note: Like Ben and Jesse, Adam is younger in this story than he is in the show

Also, while this does take place during the episode where the boys meet Adam, the episode itself isn't going to be written out

            "Do you think this kid is telling the truth?" Sam asked as the Impala sped down the highway.

            "No way!" Dean exclaimed, "There is no way dad had another kid. We would've known if he did."

            "Would we?" Sam questioned, "Dean, dad lied to us all the time. Out whole life has been made of lies!"

            "That's not true!" Dean exclaimed.

            "It is, Dean!" Sam said, "And dad spent more time away from us than with us. He sure as hell would've had time to have another kid!"

            "Sam, dad didn't have another kid, alright? He didn't!" Dean said and his tone left no room for argument, "Dad didn't just leave us at a motel with some other woman, okay? Whoever this kid is, he's lying. He's not dad's son." Sam could see arguing was pointless and said no more. He just really hoped Dean was right and that their dad hadn't been living another life when he wasn't with them.

            A couple hours later they were pulling up outside a diner. They walked inside and saw that the only other people there were an older couple.

            "He's not here yet," Dean said, "Come on" They walked over to a table in the far corner and sat down.

            "What can I get for you boys?" the waitress asked.

            "Just water, thanks," Sam said.

            "Make that three waters," Dean said, "We're waiting for someone else." She nodded and walked away, returning a few moments later with their waters. Dean pulled the third water to him and, looking around to make sure no one was watching, dumped a packet of salt in.

            "Really Dean?" Sam said in exasperation.

            "You'll thank me for this if he turns out to be a demon Sammy," Dean said just as the door to the diner opened again. A teenage boy walked in and looked around, spotting Sam and Dean in the corner. He walked over to them slowly, looking uncertain.

            "Um, are you the one I walked to?" Adam asked, "On the phone yesterday?" Sam glanced at his brother, but Dean only glared at the boy, not saying anything.

            "Uh, yeah," Sam said, standing, "I'm Sam, this is my brother, Dean."

            "Adam," the teenager said, sitting said, "So, you guys know John?"

            "He's our dad," Dean said and Adam looked at him in shock.

            "Really?" he said, looking at Sam who nodded, "So you guys are like, my half-brothers or something?"

            "Or something," Dean said slowly.

            "So listen, Adam," Sam said, "You're sure John Winchester was your dad?"

            "Yeah," Adam nodded, "He used to come around sometimes. My mum said he had a really crazy job so he couldn't be around all the time. But he came out on my birthday every year and we would go to a baseball game."

            "How old are you?" Dean asked.

            "I'm almost seventeen," Adam replied. Dean nodded, but said nothing. He watched as Adam finally picked up his water and took a sip. But nothing happened.

            "So, Adam," Sam said, "You called looking for our dad because you said you needed something?"

            "Yeah," Adam nodded, "I need your help. My mom's missing."

            "How long has she been gone?" Sam asked.

            "Couple days," Adam said, "I've been to the police, but they said there wasn't any evidence of something bad happening. but I know something did, she wouldn't just leave!"

            "Alright, well how about we head to your house and we can have a look around?" Sam asked, ignoring the dirty look Dean threw at him.

            "Sure," Adam said, "That would be great, thanks."

            "You okay Sammy?" Dean asked as they drove back to Bobby's.

            "Fine," Sam said shortly, but Dean knew he was lying. They had just buried the body of their seventeen year old brother after learning the Adam they had been talking to was actually a ghoul. After dealing with the ghouls and patching up Sam's wounds, they were on their way back to Singer Salvage to continue their hunt for Lucifer.

            "It was kind of cool," Sam said, "Being the older brother was once."

            "Yeah, you finally got to see what it's like to have someone you worry about constantly," Dean laughed.

            "Do you think it would've been different if we had known about him?" Sam asked, "If dad had told us about Adam, do you think we would've like grown up with him?"

            "No," Dean said immediately, "Sammy, dad didn't tell us about them because then he would've had to tell them about hunting and that would've put them in danger even sooner than it did."

            "Yeah," Sam said slowly, "I guess you're right."
