Title: One of Us Will Die Inside These Arms
Author: eschatologies
Rating: PG (some violence and swearing)
Fandom: SPN, gen (Dean, Sam, vague season 2)
Word Count: 1200ish
Summary: I selected si_star_x’s prompt for the hoodie_time Writing Between the Lines Challenge:

The blood is still seeping through his fingers, through the slash in his shirt and the balled up material that Sam pulled out of nowhere. There’s a burn and throb, the flames licking through his muscles and up through tender flesh.

“Stop squirming,” Sam mumbles, his own hands shaking as he fingers the clasp on the first aid box and tugs it open. “Be a man, Dean.”

I’m about two days from the deadline and don't foresee any time between then and now where I'll be able to work further. Thus, this is unbetad and I’m really not happy with it. My apologies to si_star_x - I wish I had done more!

The name above the manager’s office reads ‘No-Tell Motel,’ and Dean isn’t sure if it’s supposed to be ironic, or whimsical, or unapologetically true.
