Castiel was sitting on the edge of Dean's bed. Dean was still asleep though he was waking up – Castiel could tell from Dean's breathing. Suddenly Dean's lids fluttered open.

- Cas? What the hell?

- Morning, Dean. Did you sleep well?

Dean frowned. As he tossed the blanket aside he thought about how well he slept. – Actually I did, thanks for asking.

Castiel recognised the sarcasm in the end of Dean's answer but said nothing. It was just Dean's defence mechanism against well, everything.

- So, what's up, Cas? Is there something you need? Dean asked sitting up. He was sitting next to Castiel.

Sam woke up as well. – Morning, Cas. Dean.

- Morning, Sammy, Dean yawned. He ran his hand through his hair and rubbed his face. Glancing at Castiel he asked. – Still here?

Castiel frowned. – Yes.

Dean chuckled. – What is it, Cas?

- Nothing. I just...

- Oh, don't tell me. This is just a social call.

- Um, yes, if you want to put it like that.

Dean got up. – Whatever rocks your boat, Cas.

Castiel frowned at Dean's choice of words. What boat? Castiel's eyes followed Dean as the hunter headed for the bathroom. Castiel turned his head and his eyes met Sam's. Sam gave him a piercing look.

- Why are you staring at me? Castiel asked.

- I might ask you why you are staring at my brother.

- I am concerned about his well being.

- I am worried about Dean as well but you don't see me holding his hand.

- I wasn't –

- I know, Cas. I am just saying. You are so close to each other.

- Dean is my friend.

Sam shook his head.

Dean walked into an awkward moment. Castiel looked puzzled as ever.- What did you say to him, Sammy? He looks like his brain stopped functioning.

- My brain is fine, Castiel said.

Dean took his jeans and put them on. – Whatever you say. So, Cas. Will you join us for breakfast or...?

- I do not eat, Dean. I will leave now.

Yet Castiel didn't leave instantly. He wanted Dean to react.

- Okay, Cas. See you later, Dean said.

A ghost of a smile appeared on Castiel's face before he zapped away. Despite everything Dean was well.
