A/N: Well, I'm back again with another drabble! Well it's actually a double drabble but I couldn't resist. One is angsty because I wanted to write about the aftermath of "When the Levee Breaks" and the other has some Sick! Dean. Happy Birthday to one of my favorite authors PADavis!
Spoilers for 4.21
Word Count: 125 and 100
Prompt Word: Dry (Delirious/Sick Dean in the second one)
---------------
The alcohol burns his throat but he keeps drinking.
Drinks like an amateur that thinks he can drown away the pain. Dean is slumped over the table; his mind fuzzy and his neck raw with two crimson hand prints lingering on pale skin.
Even through the fog of inebriation his heart still hurts; the agony permanent and relentless.
Sam.
His little brother that used to adore him, made him feel like he was worth something, left. He vividly remembers laying on that pile of broken glass, gasping for air as Sam sneered and walked away.
Dean hates to admit it but he's been hung out to dry.
-------------
Slender limbs thrash wildly as Dean bucks and twists against the bed. Frantic green eyes dart around the room; confused and glazed over. Sweat glistens over pale skin like a transparent veil, full lips dry and cracked.
Sam. Danger. Protect. Where? Hidden.
"Dean," A gentle restraining grip. "It's okay, nothing's wrong. We're safe."
His body stills as heat rolls off him in scorching waves. "S'mmy?"
Sam nods and wipes a cool wash cloth over heated skin. "You have a fever. Rest now."
Dean nods tiredly.
