He had already known something was wrong before Lexie had posted the note in the journals to him. He had just wanted to write it off as Dean forgetting or losing his journal somewhere, or being too busy to look at it. Still, he and Gambit had gone through all that trouble of getting food and Dean hadn't been by or written him once about it. The fact that Andy had written him earlier that morning with instructions to run had only made him more tense as the day wore on.

He made the now familiar trek from the museum to the gym in no time, not even really bothering to wait and see what Lexie would write in response to his questions. Her answers really wouldn't change things enough to warrant him not coming. She'd said something was wrong with Dean and she'd asked if he could fix it. That was all he needed to know. He slipped inside the doors and looked around for his brother, not spotting him on the line of cots. "Dean?" He called out, being reminded of the last time he'd come to the Gym looking for his brother and finding him beaten to hell with his hands broken, or the time before that when he'd had to tell him about their Dad. He started moving towards the offices at the back. "Dean!"

"When'd you get so tough?" Dean asked in a dull tone. Somewhere inside he was impressed with the moxy he saw in Sam but that part of him was buried beneath all of the broken shit he seemed to be helplessly wallowing in. He would have liked to have told Sam that he could keep fighting. All he had in him was the strength to not break down again.

He nodded then as Sam talked about them being family and needing each other. His eyes went a little out of focus then as he looked at Sam, looking through Sam at the memory of his clone. He pressed his lips together in a thin line and looked down at his hands. "We do need each other. That's something I learned here."

As though they had still been reminiscing as he'd been doing several minutes ago, Dean said, "Dad was still pissed I couldn't train for a week until my hand healed. He tried to hide it but he was smiling when you told him you would work extra hard for both of us that week." Dean almost smiled and shook his head. "You were a cute kid, Sammy. I'll give you that." Then he looked his brother up and down. "What happened?"

Sam wanted to smile when Dean asked him when he got so tough, but he couldn't even conjure the usual forced smile that he had reserved for moments like these. He'd gotten tough because he'd had to. Jess's death was something that had changed him in ways that all the training and pressure from his dad hadn't been able to.

He felt a small flutter of hope when Dean said that they did need one another, but it quickly faded as Dean got that faraway look in his eye again.

This time he forced himself to produce the grim smile as he looked over at his brother. He shrugged and and sighed. "I grew up, Dean."
