Dean is sleeping in the passenger seat of the Impala while Sam took over driving for awhile he was tired and exhausted.
As soon as his eyes closed he is transported back to a scene he had become all too familiar with one he knew would never happen in a million years.
He walks into a hotel room and tosses his jacket onto a nearby chair and the keys to the impala lay on a table.
Even in the scene he can feel that he was exhausted and ready for a nap but somehow he's unable to rest yet so he strides to a refrigerator and pulls himself out a beer and drinks it.
Turning around he jumps nearly out of his skin Castiel leaning against a wall unphased by the reaction.
Castiel finds the bags under Dean's eyes.
"You haven't been sleeping lately have you?" Castiel asked.
"Not really anymore." Dean admitted.
"Care to share why?" Castiel asked looking like he was concerned about him.
Dean rubbed his eyes "haunted by dreams of things that are impossible."
"Maybe talking about it will help I need you alert and awake and quite frankly you are nowhere near being alert." Castiel observed casually.
Dean blushed "not something I feel comfortable sharing with you."
Castiel sighed and walked up to him to look him in the eye.
"You do know Dean there's nothing you can tell me that can really shock me I am an angel I've seen more shocking things than any human."
"I know Cas, it's just embarrassing as it's an impossibility."
"Dean damn it just tell me It'll help you sleep." Castiel tells him firmly.
Dean closed his eyes and averts his eyes as he answers quietly "the reason I'm so hesitant is because you were in it.."
Castiel looks at him curiously "I was in it? What was I doing?"
Dean blushed earlier "that's the hard part to talk about.."
"Dean we are friends right? Just tell me what happens no matter how ridiculous it is I won't judge you." Castiel promised.
Dean openes his mouth and words struggle to come out as he shook with nerves.
"In the dream I'm undressed and I'm laying in my bed...I'm looking up at you with an emotion i've not felt for anyone before..Trust..in this dream im trusting you whole heartedly.
But then your um.." dean trailed off too embarrassed to continued.
Castiel is interested now "I'm what Dean?"
"Your unclothed undressed like me…" Dean couldn't meet Castiel's eyes as he continued to describe the dream.
"And then well..in the dream.." dean quit to afraid to continue.
Castiel sighed "Dean? What happens next?"
Dean unable to get it out starts crying in frustration and embarrassment.
Castiel decides to guess at it "Dean, in the dream did we..did we have sex?"
Dean looked away from him shaking harder with nerves "yes."
"Dean why are you so embarrassed about a dream?" Castiel asked.
"Looking up with tear streaked eyes he responds with sincerity "because it's not just a dream it may be an impossibility may be an abomination but I do have real feelings for you..and it's not the quick i want to bed you then move on to the next person type feelings either but real like ever since I've first realized I had them I haven't even looked at another person in that way...even though i tell myself I'm being stupid.."
