Challenge Word: "Skin"

This is for Enkidu07's challenge.

A/N: first drabble/challenge. Please be kind.

You're burning up, Sammy.

Dean entered the small motel room and dropped his keys on the bedside table and flicked the light on.

There lay Sam on the far side, queen sized bed. Dean moved closer to his long body and squatted down so his eyes met his brothers closed ones.

He was tightly under the covers but sweating through them. Every few seconds he let out a shiver and goose bumps traced his arms.

Dean sighed heavily with full concern for his little brother and reached up and placed his hand on his forehead. The heat he felt from Sam's skin was what he had suspected as soon as he walked into the room.

"You're burning up, Sammy." Concern. Worry.

At the sound of his brother's voice Sam awoke. His head pounded and felt completely exhausted. He sat up awkwardly and wiped the sweat of his skin. "I'm going to take a cold shower."

"Good idea." Worried. Concerned. Relieved.
