Fiery pain along his side. Dean struggles awake, prone, mouth dry, stomach pitching. Adrenaline coursing, biting down hard, his hands find a starched rough pillow. He shifts away and feels relief as the pain dulls. Suddenly, Sam's hand is in his hair, soft tugs and softer speech washing over him. Then fire returns to his side and he stiffens reflexively, grunting. He reaches one hand back, seeking respite. Sam stops, takes his hand, the pain fades, Dean relaxes. After a squeeze, Sam gently wraps his fingers back around the pillow. Dean takes two quick deep breaths and Sam resumes stitching.
