The Cure For Anything by concernedlily. SPN, gen - rated PG - 11,688 words.

Summary : The cure for anything is salt water -- sweat, tears, or the sea.

This story has been around for quite some time but I've only just found it. It's a lovely, poignant story, one that has them re-visiting an old friend and bringing back with it wonderful memories of Dean with Lucas, the child from Dead In The Water, the first person to give us a glimpse of who and what Dean really was.

Part case-fic, part SamandDean, this story had me riveted from start to finish. Quietly powerful, this story has a sereneness to it which I love very much. It's told from Sam's POV, how he looks upon his brother interacting with a woman he likes and respects, how good Dean is with a child. And it's interesting to see a scenario in which the shoe is on the other foot for a change, where Sam's worrying that he's the one getting left behind. Though he shouldn't have worried ( and you shouldn't either ).

Lovely story. And if there's one character I'd love to make a comeback on the show, it's Andrea!

So, in this fic, Dean was not with Andrea?

Oh no, he wasn't. It's just Sam who was insecure and thought that Dean wanted to date Andrea. I think Dean in the story really loved Lucas, and he liked and respected Andrea but not in love with her. Don't worry, there's no het here at all!

There were some really awesome women in season 1. *misses them*

I know, right? I love Andrea because there was such an air of quiet dignity in her. I love Susan of Plaything too!
