John's Earth. St. Francis Memorial hospital.

((Started here))

The room is dim and silent except for a soft beeping and the sound of quiet breathing. There are two people in the room, one laying on the hospital bed, hooked to IVs, oxygen, and the heart monitor; the other slumped in the rocking chair next to the bed with a slightly blood-stained bandage wrapped around his head.

There's an odd peace surrounding the two men, one that makes the nurses who check on them do so siently and either linger or hurry away. But even with that hovering peace the face of the man in the chair is troubled, as though he walks in uneasy dreams.

"I didn't think of it." John lets go of him with a sigh. "It was my first time at the Cafe and the shock of seeing a male Sam and another Dean distracted me."

"It's alright, I prolly wouldn't have thought of it either." he says. "Anyways, I was too upset at the guy for making guy!Sam's life hell."

"Something hurt him badly." John thinks of the sadness he'd seen in the other Dean's eyes and posture, and the yearning for love. "He's known a lot of rejection in his life, I think."

"Well that's something I'm familiar with." he says, swallowing.

"But it all depends how you battle through it." A beat. "Alot of times, I could've just...left him, but I didn't."

John thinks of what Dean's said about his father and nods. "There but for the grace of God goes I."

He looks at him quizzically.

"What's that?"
