Something feels different. Something's wrong.
Sam's in the driver's seat, but that's not different. Not different enough to be weird, anyway. No, the weirdness is the way he's driving. It's not unusual for him to grunt in pain when he slides behind the wheel, or to need a minute to steady his breathing before he puts the key in her ignition. But the way he's leaning over to reach the ignition with his left hand, struggling with the key, stopping to put the keys down on the seat and wipe blood away from his eyes, again with his left hand. That's different. The way he finally gets the engine started and collapses across the seat, suddenly crying out in pain when he lands on his right arm, then pulls himself up and reaches over to the gearshift with his left arm. That's different.
But the most uncomfortable thing, the thing that screams wrong to her, is that he's by himself, that no one is stitching him up or cleaning the blood off his face or just saying it's gonna be okay, and that's ( ... )

And then you gave us last light line, with it's gentle motherly tone, and it couldn't have been more perfect!!! I adored this so hard. Thank you for sharing :)

This was fabulous. I loved her point of view, and all the little moments where she takes care of Sam, adjusting the air vents, conserving the fuel, making sure he gets home in one piece. She takes such good care of her boys.
I loved the "she doesn't like it... she doesn't like it at all" bit, and when she apologizes for the steering wheel being in Sam's way. Fantastic fill!
