A/N This is just a little fan fic about the brothers and how they get along.
Karl turned around and looked at his brother. David was panting slightly as he climbed the hill, carrying all the heavy bags.
Karl knew that this was unfair, and he planned that tomorrow he and David would share the loads evenly.
He turned back towards the direction they were heading and smiled and closed his eyes as he felt the sun hit his cheeks, he had forgotten how beautiful this area was.
Without even turning, he addressed his brother.
"Hurry up will ya! If you were any slower the snails would be beating you!"
"Well, if you knew how heavy these bags were you wouldn't be complaining." David frowned, as a thought suddenly occurred to him "You didn't swap the bags around so that I got all the heavy ones did you?"
"Nah, wouldn't do that to my little bro" Karl said, suddenly noticing how pale his brother looked.
"We'll stop here for the night." He said, hoping that Davis was just tired. He would give him a proper check-up when he was asleep. He didn't want to let the youngest scott know how worried he was about him.
"Thank god!" David said, finally reaching the top and promptly dropping his bag to the ground. "I was beginning to think that you planned to continue into the night!"
Karl sniggered slightly, as much as he loved to annoy his brother, he wouldn't be THAT cruel.
"Come on, lets get the fire started, before it gets too dark."
Karl awoke with a start.
He listened carefully and could hear the sounds of his brothers groaning.
'Oh GOD' he thought "I forgot to check on him!'
He silently crawled up to his brother and gently called out
"David?"
"Hurts" came the reply.
Karl saw that his brother was pointing to his stomach, so he gently lifted off his t-shirt and gasped when he saw all the bruises, cuts and abrasions.
"Does anything else hurt, youket?" he asked, using his little brothers old nickname.
"S-s-Stomach pains and can't breath" came the pained reply.
"Oh David, why didn't you tell me?" Karl asked miserably, knowing that he was going to have a busy night ahead of him.
A/N What do you think? Just a small cliffie!
