This is much more than a tag/missing scene. It's the whole episode from Sam's pov. Very well done, too!

I love this episode and cried at the end when Mary asked him to stay. Tag is wonderful brought it all back. Have to sit and watchthe episode now.

Great story! I loved that episode and the tags that go with it.

really good! i heart this fic!!

Great job -- I really liked this!

Really like this view of what happened from Sam's persepective. Cool that you had him pick up on Dean's emotions in the middle of hallucination. I always want Sam to understand the depth of Dean's pain better! :)

great job on the story. i really liked where you took it, with the connection between sam and dean from "The Wake-Up Call", and sam being able to "see" some of what dean had in his wish world. again, great job!

I really liked your idea of how sam could get glimpes of what dean was seeing...great job! I loved this episode... jensen did a great job

Very good use of description and very engaging.

I liked how you tied this story with "The Wake Up Call".
It was nice to know that the brothers still share a bond. Also that Dean had learned 'a few tricks from Missouri to keep thinks tightly wrapped and hidden away.' He could still have some privacy.
But I liked that Sam saw the dream world through Dean's eyes. He could feel the joy, pain and sorrow, which just helps him understand Dean more, and yet the link also helped Sam find his brother.
How scary for Sam to 'see' Dean kill himself.
I liked Sam's thoughts at the end. 'No, he couldn't heal his brother, but he could love him. And, that was something Sam was prepared to do.'
I enjoyed your version of the missing scene from "WIWSNB".
Thanks for sharing your story with us.
Take care.

Great job, Nicole! Loved reading Sammy's side of the story!

I need to go have a good cry. This was fantastic but oh so heartwrenching just like the episode.

Nicely done!

I like it, there not enough tag for that wonderful episode!

I am so happy that you wrote this little oneshot, especially that you used Sam's POV.
Watching Sam's reactions to the visions of Dean in a life that was never meant to be was just heartbreaking.

"Dean, you never mentioned yourself. Is all of your happiness tied up in those you love? Don’t you deserve to be happy, too? Just for you? Will you always measure your success by the welfare of others?"
Those lines were my favorite, they just reiterated the many sacrifices of Dean Winchester, he won't accept happiness unless his family has it first.

Beautiful, wonderful add on to such an amazing story!
