I Won't Be Home for Christmas


Being a Lieutenant isn't the easiest thing in the world. Being a Lieutenant and being pulled away from your family at Christmas for yet another year is impossible.

After being called off leave and told he must report for active duty, Lieutenant Ackles finds himself on the bad side of his wife. Heavily pregnant with his second son, she cant handle him not being there for yet another of their little boys Christmas's.

With no choice in the matter, they fight and Jensen is given one option: Be the one to break the news to Dean, his son who was more excited about him being home than the celebration that is Christmas.

After struggling to explain, Dean shrugs his father off and believes he's leaving because he has no love for him anymore. Heart broken by the sight, his wife steps in and explains things in a way she knows Dean will understand.

Once gone, she and her son are left with nothing to do but wait, and hope.

With Christmas just around the corner, will he be home to see his son open his presents, or will his unwavering loyalty to his duty take him away from them for good?
