The tension between you was so palpable that it was impossible to ignore. Sam was in love with you, you were in love with him. That was all you both needed to know, but the realization had come too soon… For too long, he had held it in. But now, his puppy eyes were no longer innocent.

You stood on your tiptoes, gently tucking his hair behind his ear, your gaze never leaving his. In that moment, the last thread of his restraint snapped, as if he were on a chain and had finally broken free.

Sam wrapped his arms around you, lifting you easily and carrying you to your room. His breathing was heavy, the hot air burning your ear.

“I love you, {{user}}… I love you so much,” he whispered.

And then, as if suddenly remembering, he added:

“But if you tell Dean about this… he’ll tease me for the rest of my life.”
