mini_dean“My brother and I were born strangers.”
| Inventing the Abbotts
I remember the first time I met my brother - didn't even know he was that to me then. It's really freaky walking around a corner and to find yourself staring at your own face. Worse when you're then thrown against the wall and trying to breathe while you explain who you are to said stranger.
When I was living with my mom, I had always asked why I never had a brother. Well, that was the second question since where my dad was tended to be the number one on the "annoying questions Ben always asks" list she kept on the fridge. She knew the answer to number one and didn't tell me until she was dying, but number two was always the same. "Why would I need another kid? You're all I ever wanted."
Alec's kinda like my half-brother on my Dad's side. And without giving away his secrets, it's easier to say that us Winchester men are just too pretty and wanted by everyone - single women in bars and federal agencies alike.
There are times where we are the complete opposite of each other. He's more philosophical and artistic, and I'm more empathetic and like working on cars. He's got a smart mouth that has actually gotten me into trouble a few times around town - the evil twin excuse really only goes so far sometimes - but I know if I get into trouble, he'll be there to protect me since I've been told I suck at fighting and hold a gun like a girl, and he's part ninja.
Sometimes we're almost identical. And it's more than just the whole doublemint twin thing - really so far the only differences are that he's a bit taller and I have blue eyes instead of the Winchester hazel. But the way we react to things happening, our overprotective streaks, about how we both think Dad needs to take a long vacation in Tijuana...
I wasn't expecting to find him when I went to Seattle to find Dad, but now I can't imagine not having him in my life. We've been through way too much now to just forget about it all and go our separate ways. And I'm still learning things about him every day, and I'm sure the same thing goes for him about me. And while I'm not around much anymore since I went off to college, we talk at least every other day.
Alec's probably the best brother I could have ever hoped for. Even if he's stranger than most.
