de-aged [For samefivealbums]

[onlytobenormal]

When Sam woke, it was in a bed that wasn't his own and without his dad or brother in sight... needless to say, there was a lot of freaking out. He fumbled out of bed and went looking through the apartment he was in... only to find a dog and not much else. Nothing that would tell him where he was anyway or where Dad or Dean was, when they'd be back.

He even got desperate enough to grab the phone and try their numbers... only to find them no longer in use which was just... even weirder. Now he was even more worried.

"You and Ozzy can have the bed. I'll crash on the couch. C'mon." He stood to head into the bedroom and grab a pillow and blanket for himself. Didn't really want to lie to Sam, but he would in this case if he had to. Maybe he could claim they switched off on the couch until they got a bigger place? He had mentioned needing more space...

"Why isn't there another bed?" Dean should have known Sam could overlook a lot, but... that was just weird. They'd had to share sometimes, maybe, when their motel rooms were too tiny and Dad was around... that didn't make sense if this was their own place though.

"You sure that's okay? Sleeping on the couch, I mean." Felt kind of weird about kicking Dean out of his room or whatever.

"No room for another bed and I don't do bunk beds, dude." Dean answered casually. They'd shared before, so it wasn't the weirdest thing ever. It wasn't exactly normal, either. "Told you we needed more space. Besides, furniture's expensive."

He grabbed his pillow and another blanket from the closet. "I'll be alright. The couch isn't so bad. You'll be Ozzy's hero. He doesn't usually get to sleep on the bed."

[onlytobenormal]

"Huh..." Sam didn't really sound convinced. It wasn't normal at all, not with how old they both were especially.

He moved to kick off his shoes and crawl up on the bed, settling in on his side as he looked around, curious. Just taking it all in. Their place... still was trying to wrap his head around it.

"Yell if you need anything." Dean told him after he called Ozzy in and nudged him up onto the bed with Sam. He could tell the kid wasn't totally convinced, but there wasn't much he could do about that right now. Sam was always too smart for his own good.

He headed into the living room to drop his things on the couch, then went into the kitchen to clean up.

[onlytobenormal]

"Okay..." He settled on the too-big bed, smiling when Ozzy came up and flopped over beside him for more scratching. He listened to Dean work in the kitchen - sounded like he was cleaning up or something. He shifted, trying to get comfortable.

Hard to fall asleep when your mind was too busy racing, but he was trying, getting comfortable with the covers tugged up around him and Ozzy squirming in closer.

After the kitchen was clean and everything put away, Dean padded softly back to the bedroom door to peer in at Sam. He had to grin a little at the puppy taking up so much space on the bed. Ozzy didn't get to do that often, so he was luxuriating in it.

Sam was still awake, though. Looked restless. "You okay? Dog bothering you? You can tell him to go to his own bed."

[onlytobenormal]

"Nah, he's fine." Sam peeked up at Dean and gave a tiny smile. "Just thinking. You heading to bed yet?"

[samefivealbums]

"Tell that big brain of yours to take the night off." He smiled and shook his head. "I'm heading to bed now. Sleep well, Sammy."

[onlytobenormal]

"Yeah, I'll get right on that." He rolled his eyes and shifted a little under the covers. "Good night, Dean... you too."

[samefivealbums]

"Night." Dean went into the living room and stretched out on the couch. It felt weird, not having Sam beside him. It was going to be hard to sleep tonight.

[onlytobenormal]

Sam didn't have much luck falling asleep either, but eventually, he did manage to slip off to sleep.

Eventually, Dean followed. He slept fairly well, all things considered, but he still woke up disoriented without Sam there. It took him a few minutes to remember the day before and he rolled to his feet to peek into the bedroom to see if he would find his Sam or the mini one.

The curse or whatever hadn't worn off yet. Sam was still buried in the big bed, head poking out from under the covers and still sleeping away. It had been so hard to go to sleep and it had taken so long, Sam just wasn't in any hurry to get up yet.

He shifted a little in his sleep though, curling up a little more.
