Two separate drabbles on a related theme: Dean's broken his leg; he's bearing his misfortune with dignity and fortitude.

No, really ...

LEG UP

Dean looked unnervingly small as he lay in his hospital bed swathed in bandages, bedlinen and a vast array of traction equipment elevating his fractured leg.

What didn't look small was the spectacularly pouty frown adorning his face.

"What's all this crap for?" he whinged woozily, casting a slightly cross-eyed glare at the assortment of weights and pulleys that wouldn't have looked out of place in a medieval torture chamber.

"It's for pulling and stretching your bones and muscles back into place," Sam replied patiently.

"Stretching?" Dean perked Sam nodded; "sorry, dude, you still won't be taller than me though".

LEGLESS

Dean hadn't realised that a broken leg would cause this much suffering.

It was relentless; keeping him awake overnight and tormenting him during the day.

He'd tried to deal with it, but the weight of plaster encasing his mangled leg cruelly prevented any succour.

With his leg hoisted up in the so-bad-not-good-traction-device-of-utter-asswipery, even sitting up was an effort of Herculean proportions.

When he got out of this damn place he was so doing crunches forever.

He lay back, sunken miserably into the lumpy mattress and sighed.

Asking for help sucked.

But …

"Sam?"

"Yeah, dude."

"Please will you scratch my foot."

These are both very cute. I love the second one with Dean asking Sam to scratch his foot. Sometimes whey you get an itch there it nothing that can stop it but scratching it.

Aw these are both sweet and amusing, love Dean's 'spectacularly pouty frown' - he pouts so beautifully! And having to ask Sam to scratch his foot for him, bless him!
