Castiel awoke the next morning to find Dean missing. He frowned, wondering where the familiar warmth had disappeared to. He got up and ruffled his hair, which was awfully messy compared to usual. He noticed that for some reason there were twinkling fairy lights strung all around the room, making him question if Dean had had another stripper come round that night. He frowned more, his mood going south. He didn't like how Dean still flirted with girls and did God knows what to them, despite being in a relationship with him. But he also thought it was normal.
He wandered down the stairs, seeing glitter and tinsel mixed up with yet more fairy lights. He'd changed his mind; Dean had had a stripper party last night. He groaned at the thought and slumped into a chair in the kitchen, resting his head on the table.
"Morning grumpy!" He heard Sam's voice call and all he did was move his hand slightly. He didn't want to know about Dean's adventures or what Sam thought of them right now. He looked up to see Sam wearing a Santa's hat on his head, smiling brightly, confusing him.
"Why are you so happy?" He questioned, narrowing his baby blue eyes in suspicion. Was Sam in on this too?
Sam simply tapped his nose and pulled Castiel up, covering his eyes with one hand and leading him out of the kitchen.
"If I am about to see some naked chick, I wanna go back to bed…" He muttered, not happy at all. He had completely forgotten what day it was.
Sam let go of him and removed his hand from covering his eyes. He stared at the sight of the tree from before twinkling with the fairy lights and presents surrounding it. He noticed glitter, tinsel and paper decorations strung all about the room, and fake snow sprinkled on the floor on which he stood. He loved it, he felt warm again, that strange fuzzy feeling that he wasn't yet used to.
And then he felt a pair of arms pull him into a hug from behind. He melted into it and nuzzled Dean's chest.
"Thank you, Dean…" He mumbled, reaching up to kiss his lover.
Dean smiled and kissed his forehead before leading him to the presents.
"I tried my best Cas… But there wasn't much left at the store to wrap up for us…" He frowned, picking one of the parcels up and handing it to Castiel.
"But this one is one I want to see you open."
Castiel tilted his head slightly as he examined the present. It was rather small and in the shape of a box, coated with golden wrapping paper. It looked a lot prettier than the rest of them, so it was clear to him that this was the most important one. He nodded slightly and gently pulled the wrapping paper off.
There inside was a small black box. Castiel held it up to his eye level, tilting his head slightly. He didn't quite understand why there was another box. Was the box special for some reason? Well, he couldn't ask about it, that would seem ungrateful. He looked at Dean who was laughing slightly.
"Why are you laughing Dean? Is this a trick? Were you spending time with Gabriel and that's why you weren't here this morning?"
Dean laughed more and pulled Castiel closer to him.
"You're supposed to open the box, baby."
Castiel nodded a little and opened the box. He stared at the sight inside it. There laid a beautiful golden ring, exactly the size of his finger. He smiled a little, gently pressing his finger against it before looking up at Dean.
"Cas, will you marry me?"
Castiel felt the warm fuzzy feeling grow so much bigger at that moment and pushed himself into Dean's arms, hugging him tightly.
"Yes!" He smiled and kissed him softly before looking back at Sam, who had the biggest grin on his face.
Castiel rather enjoyed his first Christmas. He didn't know how other people celebrated Christmas, but with their knock off crackers and turkey which was slightly burnt due to Dean's inability to cook without kissing him a thousand times, he enjoyed himself more than he ever had before. And that warm fuzzy feeling just kept on getting bigger and better.
