A/N I have been into Sabriel lately, so I deicide to try writing a story of my own. This is an AU based in High School. I changed a few detail to fit the story. For one I changed the age difference between Dean and Sam, so Dean is now 18 and Sam is 15. The other changes I'll try to explain throughout the story. But If I leave something out, and it doesn't make sense, be sure to let me know.
Warning: This story will contain explicit sex scenes, swearing and mature content- don't say I didn't warn you.
Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural, but then again it's not such a bad thing, if I did, I would make them do some pretty naughty things :D
Chapter One - Confessions
On the drive up from school Dean noticed that Sam was unusually quiet, while normally he would blabber on and on about his day and all the new and exciting things he had learned, today he seemed thoughtful and reserved.
"Are you okay, Sammy?" Dean asked tentatively, while he wasn't into all the touchy feely stuff, Dean cared deeply for his brother, so he had to ask.
"Oh, what?" Sam asked, obviously distracted.
"I asked if you're ok, you look like you saw a ghost"
"Um, I'm ok" Sam answered tentatively, and very unconvincingly. Dean decided not to push further. First of all it wasn't his style to pry and secondly he was sure Sam would come clean eventually if he needed to.
They finished the ride home in silence. But when at dinner Sam still had the thoughtful air about him, and nearly walked into a wall because he wasn't paying any attention, Dean decided to ask again.
"Really, Sammy, what is going on?" Sam only hesitated a moment, before a sort of resolve filled his eyes.
"Look Dean, can I ask you a sort of personal question?"
"Sure, kiddo" Dean answered still looking at Sam quizzically. What the hell was this about?
Sam took one more deep breath.
"Well, um, have you ever felt…" He trailed off tentatively looking at Dean, the older sibling nodded at him, prompting him to continue. "Have you ever felt attracted to another guy?" Sam finished in one breath, not looking Dean in the eyes.
Dean was a bit shocked by Sam's question, but he quickly shifted his expression back to neutral, as this was obviously important to Sammy.
"Well, personally, um…" Dean was finding it hard to express himself. Sam looked up and was watching him carefully now. "Look, Sammy, I don't think that I ever experienced any attraction to the same sex, but that doesn't mean that it's not ok if you do. I mean, it is perfectly ok, if you do…" Dean was feeling like an idiot, he was really kind of out of his depth, but he wanted Sam to know that he would support him and love him no matter what. And if he was gay or bisexual or whatever Dean would always support him. He just didn't know how to say that.
Sam was still looking at him timidly and it seemed like he was a bit scared, so Dean decided to continue.
"So, um, why do you ask? Do you like someone at school? " Sam bit his lower lip and nodded once.
"Well, um is it someone I know?" Dean continued, trying to sound gentle. Sam sighed.
"Yes, Dean, you know him." He seemed a bit sheepish as he was saying that. Dean looked at him curiously. He didn't mind his brother crushing on another boy, but at the same time Dean didn't want Sammy to get hurt and he knew that not all people were tolerant.
"Will you maybe tell me who it is?" Dean asked, raising his brow questioningly. Sam looked very uncertain.
"You are not going to like this…" He said quietly. Dean frowned, trying to think. Um, someone he wouldn't like? Sure, if Sammy was having a crush on someone much older that was bound to unsettle him, as far as he knew Sam didn't have any experience, with either gender. And it would make sense that it would be someone older, most probably a senior. They've only started at this school this year so Dean didn't know many people outside his year.
"Well, Sammy I'll try to be supportive" He said, with his best impression of a supportive voice. 'Although if some older boy tries to mess with you I'll beat the crap out of him', he added mentally.
Sam hesitated for a second before murmuring really quickly "Gabriel Novak"
"What?" Dean's head shot up. Surely, he must have misheard that. It could not be that asshole, Novak.
Sam whispered that name again, this time even quitter, if that is even possible, but Dean heard him.
"Sammy, you cannot be serious, that guy is bad news." Sam's face immediately soured at his words. Dean tried to let out a breath and calm his angry/shocked expression. He had to sort this out. His brother could not be having a crush on …. It made him angry to even think of the elder Novak.
"Look, are you sure you like him?" He asked, trying his best to keep his expression level. "I don't really think Gabriel" He nearly choked on that oh so hated name "would be interested in a relationship with a guy".
And that was true, Gabriel had a reputation much like Dean's which so probably one of the reasons they didn't see eye to eye. The other being the fact that Gabriel was a huge troublemaker; pranks were second nature to him. A third factor, and probably the main one, though Dean didn't want to admit it, would be the fact that Gabriel walked in on Dean with his sister, Anna. And he had made a point of telling the whole school about the encounter. It got him a (hurtful) slap from his girlfriend of the week, and also caused him problems with the principal, who was a family friend of the Novaks. Dean had hated the guy ever since.
"Well, look I really like him since we got here" Sam started, Dean hardly resisted to need to pfff, Gabriel Novak sure knew how to make an entrance. On their first day of school, someone managed to put insane amounts of pepper in all the food in the canteen. While everyone was having coughing fits, Gabriel Novak, Dean refused to think of him as just Gabriel, waltzed into the place with his small entourage, looking like he owned the place.
"But I didn't think I had a chance, until I saw him, um kissing a guy today at school" He finished in a rush. When Dean didn't say anything, he took that as encouragement and told the story.
Sam got held up in English class, because his professor wanted to talk about his essay and he was late going to his next class. The hallway was deserted, except for two figures in a corner. Sam immediately had a feeling like he wasn't meant to see this, so he became very quiet. And then he realised that the guy whose back was turned to him, was Gabriel, and he was lip locked with someone. At first Sam couldn't see who it was, he thought it must be some girl as usual, but then he realised it was another guy, a year younger than him. Sam briefly recalled that his name was Michael.
Sam finished his tale and looked back at Dean who had a sceptical look on his face. He could not let his brother date that guy, period! Dean felt like he might stamp his foot like in the movies, to express his protest.
"Well, maybe he's got a boyfriend" he started. God, please let that be true, please let him be taken, Dean found himself thinking.
Sam looked crushed at the prospect. Why did his brother have to fall for the worse possible candidate, Dean thought bitterly, and forced himself to say, for Sam's sake:
"Well, maybe not, you shouldn't be discouraged, maybe it's just a fling" Like all of his other "relationships". Sam brightened up a tiny bit.
"Do you think he might ever want to date me?" Sam asked tentatively. Dean's first desire was to scream "no". His second wish was to go and punch Gabriel Novak in the face really hard, for making his brother want him. Although he thought unhappily, that probably wasn't fair. Though he's still a dick, Dean added in his thoughts.
"I don't know Sammy, but I wouldn't rush into anything, he's a senior, and you're three years younger than him, maybe wait a while and scout out the situation" Sam smiled even more at this, this meant he has a chance. Dean sighed again unhappily; he'll have to do something about this.
"Well, that's enough excitement for today. Now, you need to do your homework."
Sam smiled again. And standing up approached Dean and gave his a quick hug.
"Thanks Dean, for being such a great brother" And then he stormed off upstairs.
'Oh, fuck' Dean thought unhappily once more 'I need a drink'
