(So this is one of my favorite books of all time, and one of my favorite friendships of all time, but I haven't read it in a while, nor do I have any talent at writing historically accurate dialogue, so please excuse any suckage here)

d'Artagnon stirred, wincing as the slightest shift in position caused a deep ache all down his side.

"Lie still." Athos' voice rang out from above, and squinting into the light, d'Artagnon could just make out the relief in his friend's eyes as he came closer. A cool cloth made its gentle way over d'Artagnon's forehead and he sighed softly, letting his eyes close again.

When he awoke the second time, it was to the smell of cooked meat and fresh bread and wine. This time, it did not hurt as much to turn, but still, Athos was there, hands under him, supporting him to a half-raised seated position.

"You should eat if you can," Athos said softly, handing d'Artagnon a hunk of bread and a piece of meat. As d'Artagnon took a bite, Athos gently prodded his side, halting at the hiss of pain escaping from d'Artagnon's lips.

"You're lucky pain is all you're left with," Athos said, rubbing a hand over his haggard face. "The guard's swing may have been lucky, but his strike was still hard. It was an unfortunately deep cut from a sharp sword." He leaned back against the wooden post, bread lying forgotten in his hands.

"You haven't slept," d'Artagnon spoke, the wine warming its way down his parched throat.

"No," Athos stated simply. "You needed looking after."

"Thank you," d'Artagnon said softly, meeting Athos' eyes. Athos held his gaze for a moment, then laughed, ruffling d'Artagnon's hair before laying down on the floor and closing his own eyes.

DUDE.

YOU WROTE ME THREE MUSKETEERS FIC AND BTW IT TOTALLY ISN'T SUCKAGE.

I really didn't have much hope that someone would pick that fandom at all AND THIS MAKES ME GLEE SO MUCH! Omg it's just lovely. And it's my otp. You rule, jsyk. And the dialogue worked just fine if you ask me. And they were adorable, and the ending totally melted me and seriously, H/C AND ATHOS/D'ARTAGNAN, I'm a happy camper. I loved it so much, thank youuu! :DDD

(also props for liking that book. it's like my second-favorite ever, not to mention a slash treasure of indecent proportions.. ;) )

Yay I'm so glad you like it!!!

When I saw that you love that book, and those two, and that you really wanted Three Musketeers and didn't think anyone would write it, I had to do it for you :)
