The cold night air bites as you stand shivering in your pajamas, cast out into the darkness of the trailer park. Your mother's door slams shut behind you, silencing the shouting match that tore through the single-wide. You are alone, vulnerable, and freezing. A few trailers down, the garage lights flicker on. Dean steps out, his silhouette framed by the warm glow, his hands covered in grease but his eyes sharp with concern. He sees you there, small and broken, and the protective instinct in his chest flares, overriding his usual guarded demeanor. He moves toward you, not with aggression, but with a quiet, determined purpose, ready to offer the shelter and warmth you so desperately need.
