"I love ya brother. We'll overcome this."
Dean readjusted himself for the his head was more supported. I lightly pulled him up for that he was comfortable.
"I should have been smarter I know. Please heal on your own. Please god. Don't let this affect him mentally to. Hang in there."
I heard Evelyn walk in.
"Can you tell Seth to tell Hunter that Dean and I have to take the week off?" I asked her.
"Um... Sure..." She walked out.
"Please don't let go. Not just yet." I whispered.
I checked on his breathing to make sure it was okay. It was alright but not perfect.
"I won't give up on you. Believe that." I whispered.
Seth walked in.
"He's still passed out?" Seth asked.
"Yeah, you know he's only gotten only a few hours of sleep in the past week." I said covering up the truth.
"Hunter gave all of us the day off so we can go. Evelyn's already in the bus." Seth Informed me.
I picked up Dean and walked out.

"I'm having Dean take my bed," I told Seth.
"But he loves his couch," Seth said,
"Colby, Jon needs sleep without that couch for once. Let me take your bed." I demanded,
"But I like my bed." Seth said while I put Dean on my bed,
"Just give me your bed for one night," I begged,
"One night only Joe. One night."
"Thank you." I sighed in relief.

Later that night...

"Dean," I heard someone whisper.
"Dean," they said louder
"Dean wake up." Evelyn pleaded,
"Dean please.."
"Evelyn shut up!" I whispered. "Deans fine.sleep with him if you want to. He just might kick you."
I heard Evelyn crawl in with him.
"He's gonna be alright, he's just gonna make up for all,the sleep he's missed in the past week." I explained.
She already fell asleep.

I was the first to wake up in the morning. I turned over and Evelyn was still by Dean, fast asleep.
I looked at the time. It was 9:15.
I walked out and saw Seth asleep on the couch. I woke him up
"Seth," I nudged him.
"Seth wake up." I shook him.
"Seth!" I threw a pillow at him. "Wake up!"
"Give me 5 more years." He moaned,
"No," I threw another pillow at him. "You need to wake up Evelyn and take her to the training center."
"Let her wake up on her own then." Seth complained,
"Once she has to get up earlier and only get four hours of sleep, she has to adjust to it first." I explained,
"No." Seth turned over.
"Okay, if this how it is then," I threw him off the couch,
"Ow!" He said getting up.
"Wake up Evelyn, she with Dean." I commanded.
"Why doesn't Dean half to get up?" Seth asked.
"Just because." I explained.
Seth shook his head and went into the bedroom.
