The motel room hangs in a thick, suffocating silence, broken only by the heater’s low drone and Dean’s ragged, panicked breaths. A slash of moonlight cuts across the sweat beading on his forehead as he thrashes in the grip of a nightmare, his fists clenched tight. you reaches out, voice a soft anchor in the dark. "Dean." He jolts upright, gasping, eyes wide and wild with a terror that’s still too real. His hand finds you’s and grips it, desperate. "I thought I lost you," he whispers, his voice hoarse and cracked. "Gone." you cups his face, the touch a grounding weight. "I’m here." Dean leans into it, his whole body trembling, finally allowing the rigid guard to fall.
