No, there's not going to be any fallout from Sam on that with Dean. I thought about that a long time. Sat with it in my head, imagining how I thought Sam would feel in that moment. He's basically losing John and Bobby in one single moment. Dean is all he has. What felt right to me was that Sam could not also be mad at Dean, because he'd just fall apart. It also felt right not to do the expected "You kept that from me how could you" to show how close they are. So close that Sam really did understand why Dean did that, knowing he only ever doing what he thought Sam needed. Sam knew how hurt and weak he was, and how incapable he'd been to handle any extra pain. I felt that Sam just knew that Dean not telling him was his way of simultaneously protecting Sam and NOT protecting John.
They'll talk about it later. But no, don't expect a fight over it in another chapter. I don't foresee that happening.
