My Dying Wish

Sam, Dean and Crowley are all in the bunker. Crowley is chained to a chair and in a Devil's Trap.

Crowley: You can't just give me the mark of cain.
Dean: Oh can't I? You tricked me into getting it, so why can't I just give it to you?
Crowley: because I have to be worthy.
Dean: Well King of Hell, I think you proved yourself.

Dean grabs Crowley's arm & transfers the mark to him. Dean feels a burning deep inside him and his whole arm begins to pull apart where the mark was. Dean screams in pain as the mark of cain pulls away from Dean's skin. Crowley screams in agony as his arm too begins to rip apart. The mark of cain disintegrates into smoke and drops down into the ground. Dean collapses and begins convulsing on the ground. Sam runs in and sees his brother bleeding.

Sam: What the hell happened?
Crowley: Your moronic brother forced the mark on me and now we are in this bloody mess.
Dean *screams*: SON OF A BITCH, THIS BURNS!
Sam: Dean. Dean what can I do?
Dean: Cas.
Sam: Dean I don't know where he is or if he'll come.

Castiel comes down and stumbles to his knees towards Dean. Castiel looks haggard and weak. He places both hands on Dean's chest and heals him. Castiel falls back to the side of Dean.

Sam: Dean?

Dean looks up at Cas and hugs him.

Dean: I. I thought you were locked up?

Castiel grips Dean tighter.

Castiel: I couldn't lose you Dean.

Castiel's eyes flutter and he tilts his head forward on to Dean and Dean catches him with his forehead.

Dean: Come on. Sammy, help me get him up. I'll take him to my room.
Crowley: Oh yes by all means. I'm fine. Go right ahead, do your monkey business.
Sam: When I get back, my sock in your mouth.
Crowley: ou. kinky.

Sam & Dean carry Castiel to the bed, Dean sits him upright on the headboard and sits beside him.

Sam: Hey, Cas. You're going to be okay. We promise.

Castiel softly smiles and looks at Sam through tired eyes. Sam closes the door and Castiel starts to cry.

Dean: Hey. Hey pull yourself together.
Castiel: I'm glad I made this decision.
Dean: What, Cas?
Castiel: To spend my last moments, knowing that I saved you for the last time.
Dean: Don't talk like that! I will get into plenty of more trouble, don't you worry!

Castiel moves in closer to Dean and looks deep into those emerald green eyes.

Castiel: My grace is fading Dean, whatever I could "juice up" *air quotes* with I did so I could save you. It was never about saving humanity Dean. It was always about saving you. *coughs*
Dean: SAM-

Castiel kisses Dean softly. At first Dean doesn't know how to react but eventually he just let the moment overcome him and he kissed him back. Dean is stunned after the kiss and Castiel has tears in his eyes as he smiles at him.

Castiel: The emotions I felt for you, I could never explain them. I've learned that by kissing, all the emotions can be perfectly felt rather than described.
Dean *smirks*: You got that right.
Castiel: Dean. I want you to know that even though you don't think it, you saved me from myself and I am grateful.

Castiel leans forward and nuzzles into Dean as he starts coughing.

Dean: SAM! SAMMY! Bring Crowley!

Castiel's breaths are slowing and are getting smaller.

Dean: Cas you hang on, you hear me!

Castiel becomes heavier in Dean's arms as his breaths are slowly escaping. Sam runs in with Crowley behind him.

Sam: What's wrong?
Dean *crazed*: Cas. He's not going to make it.
Sam: What do you mean-
Dean: HIS GRACE, SAMMY. HE'S DYING. CROWLEY CAN'T YOU DO ANYTHING?

Crowley frozen in shock just looks at the angel in disbelief, with tears forming in his eyes.

Crowley: I. I can't.
Dean: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T

Castiel stops breathing and his head does one final tilt forward.
Dean looks down.

Dean: Cas? No. NO!

Dean puts his ear to Castiel's mouth.

Dean: GODDAMMIT CAS. NO.

Dean lays Castiel on the bed and gives him CPR.

Dean: Cas, you son of a bitch. NO. COME ON.

Sam goes to grab Dean and Dean swats him away. Sam is crying seeing his brother in such grief, he turns away. Crowley is sitting on the bed with his head down.

Dean: Cas. I can't lose you. Not you Cas.

Dean starts crying and he collapses on Castiel's chest.

Dean: Cas.
