This was an exellent missing scene for AHBL.  I loved your word choice.  This was really emotional.  I felt like crying as I was reading this.  You really captured how Dean was feeling.  I liked the reference to the last scene of the HOTH.

Author's Response: Thanks for that - I had some great material to work with, and it was sort of fun going back through the episodes picking out the quotes that would reflect Dean's state of mind. I knew he would be in utter turmoil, and I know there are dozens of missing scenes and tags to the finale, both part 1 and part 2 - but I was inspired by that promo pic of Dean standing in the doorway looking at Sam's body lying on the bed - and I just had to try to get into his thoughts - thanks for reading...Julie

hey-this was a fantastically written mising scene-the emotions are so strong and accurate. You really did justice to Dean's character in this one-especially how he finally realises what Sam would have been thinking when he saw him. The Snow Patrol song works great with it too-nice job!

Author's Response: Thank you for that - I had originally planned to use Chris Daughtry's It's Not Over, and the first draft that I sent to my co-author had that song woven through it. Then I found Snow Patrol's Open Your Eyes, just before my partner in crime sent me the first flashback. She agreed that it fit better, so that's what we did. Thanks for the review - hope you like part 2 as much as part 1....Julie
