ooc; SEASON FIVE. EPISODE FIVE.
The Winchester brothers sat side by side, cruising in the Impala down some back road in Ohio, the radio on softly in the background, neither really listening. Sam had been staring out his window for the last fifty miles but could no longer contain his thoughts. "So uh, what's with this job" he asked as casually as possible. Dean had come to him yesterday with the headlining article about a man who'd apparently been killed in his own car...his own stationary car. And then they'd packed and left without really discussing it. "Dude suffers a head-on collision in a parked car" Dean summarized, sounding intrigued. "I'd say that's worth checking out." "Yeah, definitely" Sam agreed, followed by a small hesitation and then his main point. "Uh, but, uh, we got bigger problems, don't you think?" "I'm sure the apocalypse'll still be there when we get back" Dean returned with a wry smile. Sam frowned. "Right, yeah, but I mean, if—if the Colt is really out there somewhere" he began, the many details of Dean's journey to 2014 as told to him a few weeks back filling his head. "Hey, we've been looking for three weeks, we got bupkis" Dean interrupted. Sam took a beat to think over his next words and then tried again. "Okay. But Dean...I mean, if we're gonna—ice the Devil"- "This is what we're doing" Dean snapped, his grip on the steering wheel tightening. "Okay? End of discussion." Sam felt his shoulders stiffen at the authority radiating off of Dean's tone. Before he could say anything however, Dean sighed and added in a much less bossy attitude, "it's just that this is our first real case, back at it together. You know, I, I think we oughta ease into it, put the training wheels back on." "So you think I need training wheels" Sam countered, narrowing his eyes, feeling belittled once again. "No, 'we'" Dean stressed. "'We' need training wheels, you and me. As a team. Okay?" This was better. Sam gave a clipped nod. "Ok."
Dean glanced sideways at Sam, his expression genuinely sincere. "Man, I really want this to be a fresh start, you know? For the both of us." Sam wanted that too, he really did. He just wasn't sure how to make some of his resentful feelings about Dean always taking the lead and barking orders at him go by the wayside. But if Dean could try to make a fresh start, so could he. So he nodded again, really meaning it this time.
"Ok."
