An Angel

Disclaimer: Nothing is mine but the story.

A/N: Based on a self-challenge I gave to myself to see what kind of drabbles/one shots I could pull off by listening to certain songs and within certain perameters for said songs.

Pairing: Dean/Castiel

~*~ An Angel ~*~

He hadn't known how being seperated from Castiel over the past few weeks would do to him. He didn't expect to feel such a gaping hole in his being. He couldn't help himself; everytime he saw something out of the corner of his eye, he'd turn, hoping, wanting, to see that familiar flap of an overcoat and to hear that sometimes solemn voice.

He tried to hide it, from others, from Sam, and from himself really. The truth of how he felt, the true depth of his feelings...it was unsettling. A man...not a man...an angel...not an angel? Regardless, he never expected to feel so strongly for someone other than his brother. There was no one in his life he had ever loved more than Sam, no matter the situation. But this...this...

...this eclipsed that like it was nothing, almost.

His hands clench into fists, eyes closed. Wanting what he could not have, not ever have, was not helping the situation any. But...

His eyes pop open.

"...Cass?" Did his voice really sound that hoarse?

Castiel smiles softly at him, embracing him.

"I've heard you. All along. Don't you think I felt the same hesitation? But I...feel the same that you do. Always."

A/N: This is just one of many challenges that I did based upon a song. All of them together can be found at my livejournal (the link of which you can find at my profile.)
