I'm the Big Brother Now
Chapter Seven: Remembering
Date: July 31st
Sam's POV
"What the hell happened?!"
I sat on the bed rocking back and forth with Dean in my arms. I could feel the heat radiating off of Dean because of the fever. "I don't know, Bobby. One minute he was happy, and the next, he was unconscious." Suddenly Dean screamed in pain. "DEAN!"
"Come on boy," Bobby said urgently. He grabbed the keys to the Impala and went out to the car.
I quickly grabbed on tighter to Dean and rushed out to follow Bobby. When I reached the car, Bobby was holding open the door for the backseat. I scrambled in.
Bobby got in the driver's seat and with that, we sped off to the nearest hospital.
Within two minutes of driving, Dean's tiny body started to convulse and shake. "BOBBY!"
Dean's POV (but it will be in third person)
"Daddy!"
"Hey, Dude! Where's Mommy?" asked a strange man. Dean wondered why this man thought he was his daddy.
For some reason, Dean's mouth wasn't listening to him, and it talked anyway. "We's maked cookies! I hewped Mommy, Daddy! She sayed dat I's da bestest cookew evew!"
The strange man walked over to him and picked him up. "Well, then I guess I better try some then shouldn't I?" Dean nodded against his will.
When they reached the kitchen, Dean saw a very pretty woman with long, blonde hair, and she had a bump on her tummy. Dean's curiosity outweighed his uncertainty, and he asked the man why the woman he assumed was his mommy, had a bump. "She's pregnant remember? That's your little brother Sam in there. You're gonna be a big brother."
The woman turned around and smiled kindly at Dean. "Hey sweetie, did you tell Daddy about our surprise?" Again Dean's body didn't listen to his mind, and he nodded. If possible, the woman's smile got even bigger. Turning to the man who was holding Dean, she said, "How was work, John?"
Sam's POV
I sat in the ever uncomfortable chairs of the waiting room with Bobby and Castiel. "Shit, Bobby. I don't even know what's wrong!"
The older man was about to reply, but he stopped and jumped up. I glanced up to see Dean's doctor with a grim look. Oh God, no… Please God, you can't take him from me! I thought desperately. Out loud I said, "What is it, Doc? Is he okay?"
"I'm Doctor Daniels, and I'm the one that treated Dean. When Dean was brought in here, he was unconscious and unresponsive. We took him in for an MRI and a CAT scan." He cleared his throat, and continued, "I'm afraid that your son is still unresponsive. At the moment he is on the ventilator, but we hope to have him off of it by tomorrow afternoon… We are unable to discern why, but we saw quite a bit of irregular brain activity. I was also notified that he seized on the way here?"
"Uh, yeah."
Daniels nodded, "Can you tell me about how long the seizure lasted?"
I realized that in my worry for Dean and my dread, I had forgotten to notice things like that. Dammit Sam! What the hell is wrong with you? Dean could die! "Uh, no sorry. I was-"
Bobby cut him off by saying, "Four minutes."
"Shit, that's what I figured you would say, and hoped you wouldn't say."
"Is there anything else you can do for him? Can we see him?"
"Yes, but only one at a time." I looked to Bobby, and he nodded so I followed after the doctor.
I quietly sat down by Dean's bed. "Hey Baby. It's Daddy. I uh, don't know if you can hear me, but I want you to know that Cas, Bobby, and I are all waiting for you to open up your big green eyes. Um, I don't really know what else to say."
"You could always tell him about your day," said a cheery voice from behind me. I turned around to see a short woman with short blonde hair, dark blue eyes, and a happy smile. "I don't mean to interrupt. I just came to check on him. Hey Dean, remember me? I'm the nurse that was with you earlier." She turned to me, "My name's Kristen." She stopped to write some things down. "I've been having a pretty crazy day. I thought it was gonna be a bad one, but then I got to meet you. So that brightened up my entire day. I just hope that I get to see those pretty green eyes your Daddy was talking about." She smiled at me one more time and then left.
"Wow Dean, even at three and unconscious, you still charm all the women. You can't stay like this for much longer Baby, we still have tons of stuff to do!" I choked back a sob. "Just please wake up baby!"
Dean's POV (in third person)
Dean had finally settled down and decided to eat the cookies that the woman offered. His body seemed to be listening now.
He suddenly heard a soft voice, "Hey Sweetie, I'm gonna be your nurse okay? I'm Kristen. I can tell that you're a fighter, so you need to hold on alright?"
Dean was confused. Why would he need to hold on?
"I have twins that are about your age, Eric and Tanner. If my boys were the ones in here, then I would want nothing more than to have them wake up. I'm sure your Daddy feels the same. You need to wake up Dean, okay? Try your very hardest to come back to us."
He didn't hear anything for a little bit after that. Then about twenty minutes later, he heard another voice. "Hey Baby. It's Daddy. I uh don't know if you can hear me, but I want you to know that Cas, Bobby, and I are all waiting for you to open up your big green eyes. Um. I don't really know what else to say."
Dean heard Kristen's voice again. "You could always tell him about your day. I don't mean to interrupt. I just came to check on him. Hey Dean, remember me? I'm the nurse that was with you earlier. My name's Kristen. I've been having a pretty crazy day. I thought it was gonna be a bad one, but then I got to meet you. So that brightened up my entire day. I just hope that I get to see those pretty green eyes your Daddy was talking about."
"Wow Dean, even at three and unconscious you still charm all the women. You can't stay like this much longer Baby, we still have tons of stuff to do! Just please wake up Baby!"
Dean nodded and turned to Mary and John. "Wisten up. I need to gets to my's Daddy! And wevew you wike it or not, you's guys awe gonna hewp me get backs to him. Do I's make mysewf cweaw!?"
John looked at Dean disapprovingly. "Dean, you do not talk to your mother and me like that. Do you understand?"
"No, Dohn. Dis is not weal. You's not my Daddy! A mistew named Sam Wintester is my Daddy! And you's is not my mommy! Daddy sayed dat my Mommy goes aseeps fowevew and evew. So yous is. Not. My. Famiwy. Now I askeded if I maked mysewf cweaw!"
Mary grinned, "Very good, Sweetheart! It's true. Well half true. Right now, you are in a coma. You need to wake up okay? Sammy is waiting for you."
"Otay, but I don't knows how to wake ups. I needs hewp."
"We'll do what we can, but Dean, we can only do so much," John said sadly.
Sam's POV
I had been sitting by Dean's bed talking to him for about a half an hour when the heart monitor started to go crazy. "DEAN!" Doctors and nurses rushed over to us. One of the nurses grabbed my arm and pulled me away.
"Sir, you need to go back to the waiting area. We'll let you know when you can come back."
"NO! DEAN!" Just then, the monitor flat-lined. "DEAN!"
"Clear!"
The nurse had gotten two others, and they managed to pull me back to the waiting room.
I dropped to my knees and just cried until Bobby and Cas got me into a seat and were trying to get me to tell them what happened.
I eventually got to a point where I could talk between sobs. "The…His…heart…He flat…l-lined Bobby!"
"God….no…"
Author's Note: Oooh, well that is just not good. I'm sorry about the cliffhanger. No wait, I lied. I'm not sorry. It's hilarious. I still love reviews! Thanks for keeping with my story!
