A/N: Sorry for the wait! :)


After he's finished taking a shower, Dean swears under his breath as he sees Sam already sleeping, sprawled out nearly taking up the whole bed. Then he glances at the bed that Cas is laying on, only taking up less than half of it. Dean takes a deep breath.

I guess if I want any sleep tonight I'm going to have to sleep with Cas. It's not like I haven't shared a bed with anyone before… just not with Cas. Wait I thought angels didn't need to sleep… I wonder if this is related to the cut off from heaven thing…

Dean slides into bed next to Cas, making sure he keeps a good distance away from him. He tries to fall asleep despite the awkwardness he's feeling and almost manages to do so when Cas wakes him up.

"Dean?"

"Huh?" He wearily opens his eyes. "Yeah Cas?"

"How do humans sleep?"

Dean rolls over so he's facing Cas. "You're telling me you don't know how to sleep?" Dean whispers in disbelief.

"As an angel, sleep is not a required activity, but I thought since I have lost my connection with heaven I should attempt to learn how to sleep." Cas explains and stares expectantly at Dean.

"Cas all you have to do is close your eyes and relax. It's not that hard." Except when you've seen the things I have.

"I tried that."

Dean sighs. "I don't know. Go to your happy place."

Cas gives Dean a confused look.

"Think about something you like or makes you happy."

"Oh, I think I get it now."

"Good because I need to get some rest. Good night Cas."

"Good night Dean." Cas closes his eyes and tries to focus on a happy thought.

Dean rolls over as it suddenly dawns on him how close their faces are. Once he's safely facing away from Cas, he falls into a deep sleep for once. Little does he know that he is the cause of the peaceful smile that appears on Cas's face.


In the morning at around 7, Sam wakes up and glances over at the other bed and nearly does a double take. He grins at the sight of the still sound asleep Dean and Cas. Dean has his arm draped over the angel.

"I am so keeping this for blackmail." Sam snaps a picture with his phone. Then he quietly leaves the room to get some coffee.

About half an hour later, Cas wakes up surprised to feel the warm heavy weight of Dean's arm wrapped around him. Not wanting to disturb him, Cas just stares at Dean, content to watch him sleep.

When Dean finally opens his eyes his face immediately turns red as he quickly moves his arm off of Cas.

"Crap, Cas I'm sorry about that. Next time I'll just sleep on the floor."

Cas just stares at him quizzically with his intensely blue eyes. "You don't have to sleep on the floor. It didn't bother me."

Of course it doesn't bother him. Awesome. And he's staring at me with those stunning blue eyes. Damn it.

Dean tries to avoid Cas's gaze. "Uh… how'd you sleep?"

"Good, you're right it's not too hard."

"Er good. I'm going to get up now." Dean says awkwardly. Then to make things worse, he stumbles getting off the bed. Swearing under his breath, he grabs his bag and rushes into the bathroom so he can change, not releasing a breath he didn't know he was holding until the door safely closes behind him.

What the hell is wrong with me? I almost fell off the bed and why can't I get Cas's eyes out of my mind?

Dean looks at his reflection in the mirror.

And why is my face still red!

Dean hears a door open and close.

Damn it, Sam's back… wait Sam, shit, he saw Cas and I!

Dean runs a hand through his hair. Then he quickly gets dressed, splashes some cold water on his face, and tries to walk nonchalantly into the room.

"Hey Dean," Sam says, smiling. "I brought you some coffee and Cas has been telling me how you taught him how to sleep last night."

Dean's cheeks flush red again. "Cas, why did you tell him about that?"

"I was not suppose to?" He asks confused.

"No, that was…"

Sam jokingly raises his eyebrows.

"You know what never mind, and you," Dean glares at Sam, "don't say a frickin thing."

And with that Dean grabs his coffee and storms out of the hotel room.

"Sam, I don't understand. Why is he so upset?"

Sam tries to come up with an easy way to explain without giving away too much. "Dean's just embarrassed that I know that you shared a bed last night and that you told me about what was probably supposed to be a private conversation."

"Should I apologize?" Cas asks.

Sam shrugs. "That's up to you, but I think he's madder at me. Besides he's not as angry as he looks, he'll be back within an hour.'

Cas nods contemplating what he should do.

Sam pulls out his laptop and starts researching.
