It took quite the argument, but you finally convinced Sam to sleep in his own bed. You had trouble sleeping that night, you could’ve blamed it on the lumpy couch, but you’d be lying. You probably got up at minimum, four times last night to check on Dean and make sure he wasn’t bleeding and still breathing. On about your second trip to his bed that night, you removed the IV needle since the bag that was haphazardly strapped to the headboard was empty. You knew he would need more fluids, but it was all you had for now. On the third trip to his bed, you were met by Sam who was also checking on his brother. You gave him a smile, and shuffled your way back to the lump fest.
The next morning, you woke up feeling like a mule had kicked and then pranced all over you. How on Earth did Dean sleep on this? This realization caused you to think back with guilt on letting Dean take the couch that first night. You rolled over from facing the back of the couch towards the front and viewed the open room. Blinking through your hazy sleep state, Dean came into blurry view. When your vision finally cleared, you were amazed at the sight. Dean was sitting up against the headboard, he was still shirtless, his jeans just barely poking above the coves, you couldn’t help but trail your eyes up his torso, pausing at the gauze reaching up his side. This brought your gaze to his broad, muscular chest. The sunlight through the window caused his skin to glow a golden color. You were abruptly pulled from your admiration when you heard a “ah-hum.”
Your eyes shot up to his face where he was smiling back at you, and you turned what you assumed a shade of tomato. This elicited a slight chuckle from Dean then an immediate slight grimace at the tug on his stitches, but his smile returned when his hand went to his stitches.
“How’s the shoulder sleepy head?” he asked.
You racked your brain for a moment, “Shoulder?”
“Ya, yesterday was a test run for your shoulder. How does it feel today?”
Your brain was slowly starting to catch up to the conversation, “Shouldn’t I be asking how you are feeling?” You were standing at his bedside now.
“I asked first,” he smirked.
“If I tell you, will you tell me?” you asked crossing your arms at his cockiness.
That shit eating grin never left his face.
“Fine, my shoulder has a dull ache, but otherwise its great. Now a deal’s a deal.”
“What this,” he lifted his hand from his left side, looking down, “tis a scratch.”
You plopped on the bed facing him, “A scratch!? Dean, the vamp tried to check out your ribs by using your own machete as a letter opener. Plus, you lost a lot of blood. I bet if you tried to make your way to the bathroom you’d look like a new born giraffe.”
“I would not!” He said with mock offense written on his face.
“Ten bucks says otherwise.”
“Ten bucks for you, a kiss for me,” he bargained with annoying confidence.
You paused. Did he really just say that?
He smiled at your bewilderment, swinging his legs over the bed. You stood before he could, standing away far enough to give him room. He made it to full height, long enough to smile in triumph before his legs buckled. You half way caught him, half way helped him fall back onto the bed.
“Looks like I get ten bucks,” you smiled back at him in your own triumph.
“Ya, ya, ya, help me back into bed,” he nearly pouted.
You pulled the covers back some more to make room, and lifted his legs helping him rotate back to his headboard sitting position.
“Not that I haven’t enjoyed this eventful morning with you, but where’s Sam?” he asked.
As if on cue, Sam walked in with his hands full with bags of food.
“Hey, you guys hungry?” he asked, emphasizing his question by lifting the bags.
“Yeah, but we need to use Dean’s bed as the table. We already tried walking, and Bambi here didn’t even make it a step before falling.”
“Heeeyyyy, feelings, sweetheart. Feelings hurt,” he exclaimed with false pain.
You and Sam joined Dean at the bed and passed food around. In about twenty minutes, everyone was done eating and got to packing. Well, Sam and I got to packing; Dean practiced standing up. After the car was packed, Sam and I took both sides of Dean and loaded him into the back seat as well so he could lay down if he needed to.
It was late morning and an hour into the drive Dean finally passed out in the back seat, stretched out as much as his lanky body would allow. You let a giggle slip at the soft snores that floated up from the back.
Sam smirked at your enjoyment of his brother, “So are you going to stick around a little longer. I know I would like you to, and Dean, well I’m sure Dean would like you to as well.”
“I think I will. I’d like to help y’all out until Dean is back to tip top shape. I’m sure that cut is going to slow him down a bit, and it’s the least I could do for what y’all did for me.”
“You don’t need to pay us back, we would do it all over again in a heartbeat,” Sam said taking his eyes off the road long enough to make his point that he was serious.
“Well, same,” you smiled.
A comfortable silence fell on the trip, and before you knew it you fell asleep too.
