To say work had be stressful was an understatement, Castiel really just wanted to go home take a long soak in the bath and snuggle into his kings sized mattress and forget about the world of accounting.
He waited patiently outside of the enormous sky rise for a cab, after waiting nearly 15 minutes the yellow miracle finally made it. Hailing the cab over, Castiel picked up his satchel from its place on the ground before opening the door. Upon sliding into the seat Castiel noted that the cab already had an occupant, "oh, apologies I didn't realise anyone else was in here, I'll just get out and wait for another" Castiel mumbled starting to retreat from the vehicle. A hand gripped his arm and for the first time Castiel actually saw who else shared the cab, a tanned skinned, green eyed man of perfection.
"No man it's cool really, it's hard to find a cab this late at night I don't mind sharing the ride dude, where you heading?" the greek god asked him.
"Uhh… 2064 Colt Boulevard" Castiel mumbled as he righted himself in his seat.
"Oh awesome, I live the street just after" the man smiled "the names Dean by the way" he said holding out a hand for Castiel to shake.
"Castiel" Cas replied gripping the man's hand and giving it a firm shake.
"Strong grip you got there cas" Dean noted his eyes racking over the holy tax accountant before him. The man was obviously gorgeous but swamped himself in oversize layers that hide the body underneath.
"t-thanks" Castiel muttered dryly.
As if noting he had made the conversation slightly awkward dean decided to right himself by bringing up a different topic to fill up the silence of the journey.
"So you're an accountant?" Dean asked turning towards his cab companion.
"How did you know?" Castiel enquired glancing up at his companion.
"You got the look" Dean shrugged.
"Oh, right" Castiel replied glancing at his companion.
"You lived here long? I only ask cause im sure I couldn't forget seeing a gorgeous face like yours" Dean smirked. The pickup line coming off incredibly cheesy.
The cab driver snorted.
"Shut up Benny!" Dean groaned kicking the back of his seat.
"You know each other?" Castiel enquired, glancing back and forth between the pair.
"Known each other since high school, so to answer my question" Dean replied quirking a brow.
"I moved here about 6 months ago, but I rarely get out much" Castiel laughed awkwardly, lowering his head suddenly feeling embarrassed at how lame his life really was.
"That's a shame, im quite a regular visitor at the Roadhouse ever heard of it? Great place you should check it out some time" Dean beamed at him.
"Perhaps I will" Castiel replied glancing up at his new acquaintance that was slowly turning his insides to a puddle of goo.
After glancing at each other and not breaking eye contact for what seemed like an eternity the cab driver Benny finally spoke up startling the two of them into breaking eye contact.
"Here's your stop buddy, that'll be $7 dollars even" the taxi driver Benny told him. Castiel fished out his wallet paid the bill and gathered his belongings.
"Guess I will see you round cas" Dean grinned at him, Castiel's heart fluttered at the prospect of seeing Dean again. "Yes dean, I will see you around also" castiel replied with a smile of his own before exiting the cab and walking up the short path to his home.
