A/N: Written for Sam's Birthday as part of ohsam's H/C Fic&Art Celebration. Our resident boy is turning 30 today (ignoring the frequent time jumps), well not boy more like man. This story is a prompt from khakigrrl so this is for her and Sammy.

Happy Birthday our wonderful hero, who has gone through so much and is still having to face things no human being should. You're very strong, and with Dean by your side you can accomplish anything.

Summary: It is Sam's birthday and the trials have been kicking his ass, and Dean wants to give him the best one yet. What better way than to bake a cake for Sam? Except, Sam is having so many problems with the trials that keeping food down is incredibly hard.

I was trying to figure out how old Sam really is - counting time elapsed during Mystery Spot, and time in the cage - and I realized that Sam's 25th birthday happened twice. That inspired this.
