Ahh, vamp!Dean is STILL love, as far as where His Sammy is concerned, still looking out and protecting his baby brother.
How terrible that he doesn't grasp that what Sam really needs is, good or bad, the *belonging* which only turning him is going to bring.
Dean needs to bring Sam along for a nightly hunt and let him see exactly what goes on before he agrees to turn him.
Except, for Dean the hunt seems to have overtones of intimacy that the older man can't shake -- he feeds (can't keep feeding on Sam to the extent he needs to stay "alive" and healthy, obviously) and something about it is what would make Dean talk about it like it was a form of unfaithfulness, almost adultery.
But at this point Dean doesn't understand that Sam's ready to bolt for loneliness and not *knowing* and a diet of steady nighttime fear. At this point they're being driven apart.
At this point, this is most likely the RIGHT point to turn Sammy because he's being eaten alive (er, yeah) bit by bit by being nibbled to death by ducks with fangs.
Goodbye to all that bodily warmth, but Sam needs to belong totally to His Dean, and that can't occur any longer if the older man is something Sam's not. For the human, it's going to be worth it to *belong*. For the older, he will be his sire in a way that he mimicked in their original life. He'll teach Sam how to grow up as a vampire, give him the benefit of afterlife lessons as well as the original ones he used to raise that small boy right along with himself.
Our sweet Dean just doesn't realize that it's all about Dean just as much as all about Sammy. He's still needed, he's still loved -- but a new approach is necessary.
Sam needs one more gift from his brother, the one that Dean can't see as a gift for all the extraneous hoopla. Turning him at this point is the greatest gift of himself that Dean could give. Even with the obvious negatives, he doesn't understand the many and varied positives of what Sam will eventually cajole him into doing -- or lose him.
The brothers have always been stronger together than apart, no matter what. This, for these particular men, is just another bond.
