This one shot might not be for you as there is barely any dialogue, and it's mostly just Dean thinking about how cute Cas is. So if not, you might still want to stay tuned as I'll probably write something you like a more a little bit later.


Bed Stuff

Dean was lying in his bed, staring up at the black ceiling. He moved his arm to lay above is head, and rubbed his eyes with the other one, while sleep was not usually a possibility for him it never hurt to try to catch a couple hours of it.

There was a grunt next to him as Cas rolled over, his arm flopping onto Dean's chest. Dean sighed, but didn't bother to move the arm. One big downside to Cas being a human now was that he slept, and since they didn't have any more rooms with beds in them in the bunker that meant Cas was sharing with Dean. And while Dean led on that he didn't like it, he really did. He liked being as close to Cas as possible, because – now that he was human – Dean felt like he was too vulnerable to even sleep alone. But that was just his stupid protectiveness of the people he loved. And he did love Cas, and Cas knew it.

Cas moved closer to Dean, nuzzling his face in his neck, a soft mumble of his name could be heard as he cuddled closer to Dean. Dean looked down at Cas, smiling a little as he looked at his sleeping form, and found himself touching Cas's soft hair fondly.

He remembered the first night Cas slept with him, – and by slept with him I mean slept and not… you know – Cas was really shy, so shy that he stood in the corner of the room looking at Dean's things for about an hour hoping Dean would fall asleep. And, of course, Dean didn't. But, in an act of mercy of kindness, he shut his eyes and made his breathing deeper, making Cas believe that he'd drifted off. And not to long after he'd "drifted off" he felt Cas climb into bed next to him. This routine carried on for the next week, until one night, while Cas was observing Dean's machete for the one millionth time that night Dean stood up and grabbed Cas around the waist and pulled him into bed with him, refusing to let go until Cas was asleep.

"Dean…" Cas mumbled into Dean's shoulder as he moved his arm to hug Dean tighter. Dean touched Cas's hair again, shushing him softly. Cas was very prone to nightmares now that he was human, which didn't surprise Dean, I mean, if you've been alive since the beginning of time but haven't slept a wink you have a lot of bad dreams to catch up on. But the unique thing about Cas's nightmares was that he never really grew restless or thrashed or shouted, he just tensed and breathed quicker. It was almost like he was just succumbing to them, taking the pain. Dean believed it was because Cas thought he deserved it, and that's just because that's who Cas was. And during these nightmare all Dean could do was hold him tightly, because nothing could wake Cas up even when he was having a regular dream, like seriously, Cas was the world's heaviest sleeper. But he was also the world's cutest sleeper whenever he wasn't having nightmares. His sleeping habits made Dean just want to cuddle him and kiss him on the nose. Cas tended to sigh a lot, sometimes the sighs sounded higher pitched, sometimes they were pretty quiet. He would also sneeze or sniff, which was also extremely adorable, as Cas's sneezes tended to sound more like he was trying to hold them in, but even when he was sleeping his sneezes were very soft and not very dramatic.

Cas rolled over and Dean felt colder as the covers were tugged off of him. Another one of Cas's sleeping habits. And while this would usually annoy people, Dean liked it, because it gave him a reason to roll over and lay closer to Cas, with the explanation that he was only trying to take the covers back, but in reality he doesn't usually sleep with them anyways.

So, that's just what Dean did, he rolled over and hugged Cas from behind, planting a soft kiss right below his ear, and lingering there just long enough to whisper, "I love you."

He felt Cas move to hold his hand and lean back into him, mumbling a soft, "I love you too."
