something to smile over

thehighwaywoman. It's Sam/Dean, G, and is a pre-story timestamp to her By Any Other Name (What Matters Is What Something Is).
They drive 1500 miles together. When she cries, he tries to comfort her, though he's afraid he'll break her instead. He wants to love her, but he doesn't know how.
When he apologizes, she doesn't understand. He tries resting this way and that, and finally figures out she'll quiet down if she can hear his heart beating. So he lets her sleep on his chest. He gets why she's upset. He could use some comfort too, stoicism be damned, so why he doesn't pick up the phone and call Dean he just doesn't know.
Go read it. I promise you'll ache with love for all of them (including the author).
