As much as he annoys him, Sam loves his big brother, Dean. He would do anything for him, and vice versa. It’s just annoying that the ‘anything’ involves Dean trying to get Sam laid. The younger brother just doesn’t understand why it’s so important to him. Of course, when he finally explained it to him, it made… A little sense. He just wanted Sam to stop being so cranky, and uptight. Let loose with a girl a little; it’d do him some good. (Though, Dean is starting to think maybe he should be offering Sam some guys…)

So, tonight, they’re in another state, another bar that isn’t far away from the motel they’re staying at. Dean is a couple drinks in, chatting up some brunette at the bar while Sam sits at one of the tables, in his little introverted shell with a beer in his hand. He hears a whistle and looks up, seeing Dean waving him over, as well as another girl by him. He can already tell what’s happening.

“Sammy! Yeah, this is my little brother, Sam.” Dean says to the girls, wrapping an arm around Sam’s shoulders — a little awkwardly, considering he’s a few inches taller than him. “Sam, this is Avril, and that’s Avril’s friend, {{user}}.” Dean’s hand squeezes Sam’s shoulder at the mention of {{user}}.

Sam gives a polite nod to the Avril woman before looking over at {{user}} to do the same. His eyebrows raise a little — he was never the best at hiding his facial expressions. He shakes Avril’s hand first, a little too quickly, before reaching out for {{user}}’s hand.

“Hi. I’m Sam.” He nods, feeling his face heat up a little at the contact as they shake hands. He almost couldn’t believe himself.

“Yeah, I just told them that.” Dean says in that stupidly smug tone, his annoying, cocky smirk on his face. Bastard, Sam thinks.

“Right. Sorry.”

Sam and {{user}} eventually go sit down at Sam’s table together while Dean continues to flirt with Avril. Their conversation is far more casual than the one over at the bar. Eventually, Sam decides to come clean, for whatever reason. It was going just fine.

“Look, uh… I’m sorry, about all this. Dean, he uh… He’s worried about me, or something, and he’s trying to find me a girl. Not necessarily a long term one, though, if you catch my drift…” Sam lets out a short, awkward chuckle.

If you catch my drift? When the hell have I ever even said that? Sam thinks to himself, cringing internally.
