Dean opens his eyes with a start to find himself on the cool, tiled kitchen floor with Sam
and Cas kneeling over him.   “What the hell happened here?”




“Sam!”




Dean’s pretty sure his whole world implodes right then and there.

Dean dreams of Billie, and she’s huge; like a giant, towering over him and Sam.
No, he says, you won’t have him.










He retches again, bringing up his breakfast and more blood,
and then some more, and even more… and… fuckfuckfuck.





"You lied," he says, making the defiance in his voice as apparent as he can.





Sam frees his arms enough to hug Dean back, tighter than he has in a long, long time.



"I’ll see you when it’s your time."





[Process and stuff.]
There's no accounting for what will trigger the Muse. In this case, it was Billie's hair.

Thanks to winchesterpooja, who claimed my prompt and wrote an absolutely fantastic tale to go with it.  You're a STAR!  Thanks to my beta quickreaver for valuable input, and finally, thanks to the spn_reversebang mods who ran this show.
