Dean wasn't quite sure what woke him. He waited for the sound of cars rush by but it never came. Instead he met the sound of waves stroking the yellow sand. He still wasn't used to that. He didn't think he'd get used to it. Sam was hunting demons, supposedly alone and independently, not too far awa. Dean was just staying close by to keep an eye on his little brother.

Dean rolled over to look at the window. It was still dark. He could see the navy blue sky almost like a black cloak over them. He groaned as he heaved himself up and over to the window. He reached for the curtains and paused.

It was a clear, crisp night. Bright twinkling stars crammed the sky. He pressed his head against the glass. Then something caught his eye. A man sat girt by sand with the sea foam lapping at his toes. He gazed up at the stars. The silver moonshine made his eyes gleam bluer and sent a grey streak down his jet black hair. Dean couldn't pull his eyes away.

The night grew old around the two. The temperature dropped and slowly the sea pulled away from the shore. The man on the bay was shivering. He had pulled his knees in to her chest and buried his bare feet into the sand. He still didn't stop staring. Dean felt how cold he was. It made him shiver until he couldn't take it anymore.

Dean grabbed the light brown trench coat from the back of the chair. He didn't have time to put on shoes as he ran out. He wandered down to the bay where the man sat. The soft sand was cool and crumbling under his toes.

"Beautiful isn't it? The sea and the stars and the sky? So clam and at peace together!" the man sighed contently. Dean smiled a half smile.

"Yeah I guess it is. Here, you're shivering!" he said draping the trench coat over the man's shoulders. He took a seat beside him. "Dean by the way. My name's Dean!" he said.

"Castiel. Cas for short. Do you like the sea dean?" Castiel asked. He still hadn't looked away from the horizon where the stars met the sea and the dolphins dove in a silver pool of moonlight. Castiel didn't give Dean Time to answer and continued regardless, "I love the sea. I love the waves, the foam, the depth, the creatures and all the wonders beneath the surface! The sea, the sky, the stars all are god's finest creations!"

A memories of a past day came back to Dean. "There's a tunnel in my yard. You can hear the wave's crash in underwater caves if you go in deep enough!" He said.

Castiel's blue eyes sparkled and he finally pulled them away from the stars to meet the pearl green eyes of Dean. There was a little joyous light in them. "Let's go!" He said. He stood up and Dean pulled himself to his feet. He slid his arm around Castiel as they headed back towards his house.
