Hello, there! I am still very new to this whole- writing fanfiction instead of reading it- thing, so reviews would be awesome. This story is basically a whole lot of fluff, with some other stuff. I'll be switching POVs between Dean and Cas every chapter.

Okay, that's enough talking. Hope you like it :)

Dean opened the pristine glass door with a deep sigh. Owning a jewelry shop was not as joyful and pleasing as anyone may have thought. Seeing so many happy couples with happy and full lives together ahead of them, and Dean didn't have anyone. Sure, he had his brother Sam and his parents, and then he also had his best friends Benny, Ash, and Jo, but he didn't have someone. Someone to share his home with, someone to wake up to every morning, someone to stay up all night with and it's fun and magical no matter if you're watching movies, talking, or engaging in other 'physical activities'. All he really wanted was to have that someone. Especially after so many years of selling a symbol of such a relationship.

Dean walked through the doorway into the small and dark store. He turned on the lights, revealing nearly a dozen glass cases containing hundreds of shiny expensive rocks and overpriced rings. He switched the sign on the door to 'open' and sat behind the counter as he sipped his hot coffee out of a paper cup. It was Christmas time and that usually meant the store would be busy. After just a few minutes there were three young men looking at necklaces and engagement rings. All of them clearly nervous and excited of what the outcome of the gift would bring. Dean could already feel the long day ahead weighing on him.

Later on, a man finally left the store after an hour of Dean helping him pick out the "perfect" assortment of diamonds for a bracelet. Then, two men walked into the store. One was a bit short, kind of goofy looking, had light brown hair, and a slightly cocky smile. That was when Dean took a look at the other man. He had intensely dark brown hair that was messy in a way that looked like he had just gotten out of bed, but it worked well with his look. He had beautifully deep blue eyes that just sucked Dean right in. He was wearing a casual suit with a blue tie that just so happened to match his eyes, and a long tan trench coat. He just looked so indescribably perfect. Then Dean realized he had been staring for a few seconds too long and he had to tear his eyes and thoughts away from the gorgeous man. 'God, Dean... Get it together! Look at him, he is obviously here with his fiancee! How could you think things like that?!'Dean thought to himself over and over until the couple reached the counter. Dean hadn't been very successful with not staring at the guy, but he was trying.

"Hey, there! We're lookin' for a ring," the shorter man said.

"Well then you've come to the right place," Dean replied, with a weak smile. He was still irrationally hurting from the non-existent heartbreak.

"My brother here says that I should get her one that has a 'special meaning' or something, but I think I'm just looking for something pretty," the lighter haired man said. Dean felt a sudden and shocking warmth fall over his body. He didn't understand the ridiculous emotional attachment he had to this guy he hadn't even talked with yet. The heavy weight of the long day suddenly had lifted and he was prepared to keep these men in the store for as long as possible.

"Well, if you're looking for something simple, this is one of my top recommendations. It's one of my favorites," Dean said, gesturing to a ring in the glass case beneath them. It had five small diamonds imbedded in a gold band.

"It's gorgeous. So simple yet so beautiful," the taller man said in a deep and gravelly voice that made Dean bite his lower lip. Then the man looked right at Dean, and their eyes truly met for the first time and everything around them vanished. Time stopped. Those deep blue eyes collided with Dean's warming and magnificent green eyes.

"Um... Gabe, could you give us a moment?" the blue eyed man said without breaking eye contact. Gabe rolled his eyes slightly and said something under his breath that Dean couldn't make out, then walked to another part of the store.

"Hey," Dean started with a twitch of a smile at the corner of his mouth, "I'm Dean."

"Hello, Dean. My name is Castiel," the dark haired man replied, reaching out his hand. Dean took Castiel's hand in his and the touch made him feel like he was soaring. It was as if he was water and Castiel had just sparked electricity through him.

"Nice to meet you, Cas," Dean said, with some surprise from the unexpected nickname. Cas smiled at it, and Dean was relieved.

"Hey! You two! Would ya' stop with the eye fucking and act like normal human beings!" They heard from across the store. Dean and Cas laughed and broke the deep staring session.

"I'll have to apologize for my brother. He can be a bit-"

"Abruptly honest?" Dean respectfully interrupted. Cas laughed at the truth and hilarity of Dean's words.

"Yes. Exactly," Cas said.

They talked and laughed for about 30 minutes until Gabe came over with his decision on an engagement ring. Dean hadn't realized so much time had gone by and that there were two other people in the store looking like they needed assistance. Cas seemed just as startled by the time that had vanished. Gabe made his purchase and it was the time that Dean dreaded since the second he saw Cas; they were going to leave. Gabe went out to the car, leaving Cas and Dean in the store.

"I really enjoyed talking with you, Dean," Cas said with a wide and handsome smile.

"Yeah, so did I, Cas. Maybe we could get together another time? You know- to talk or something," Dean said, stuttering. He wasn't used to being so nervous around someone he was romantically interested in. Usually he was so smooth at talking like this.

"I would love that. Maybe we could go for coffee? Tomorrow?" Cas said.

"Sounds good. How about noon at the coffee shop on Smith?"

"Perfect."
