Bucky didn't even stir when Steve pulled up the blanket around his shoulders and checked on his oxygen line.
He slept deeply for a few hours, just until he hit the deepest part of his sleep cycle and was soon twitching in his sleep, curling into a tighter ball, fingers clenching in the blanket.
Bucky groaned and whispered, "No, please... Not..." He jerked and let out a pained moan, back arching.
He hadn't had nightmares in the hospital, at least not to the point that he was talking aloud, until after they had switched him from the morphine drip to codine for the lingering pain in both ankles and his stump.
Bucky whimpered, tucking even tighter, right arm going around his head in a position that was intensely defensive.
