Sunlight spilled across the unfamiliar bedroom, catching the dust motes as Dean Winchester jolted upright, chest heaving. The room was pristine, alien to his motel-hardened senses, but it was the figure beside him that froze his blood. You. In their reality, you were enemies, clashing in a storm of sarcasm. Here, you slept peacefully. Framed photos on the wall told a impossible story: a wedding, a beach vacation, and Mary—alive, smiling, her hand on your shoulder. Panic clawed at Dean’s throat, the warehouse reality of wires and Djinn magic hidden from his waking mind. Your hand found his shoulder, warm and grounding. He flinched, expecting hostility, but found only warmth in your gaze. “you..?” he whispered, torn between the lie and the first thing that felt truly real.
