I Know Him So Well – Elaine Paige and Barbara Dickson
'... but it took time to understand the man, now at least I know I know him well ...'
Castiel looked over at the sleeping figure of Dean Winchester. He usually sat here, in the motel room, watching over the sleeping man, well, only when he wasn't there on business. Sometimes he would have time to himself and he would find himself at the foot of Dean's bed, watching him, longing to reach out and touch him.
"Cas," Dean's voice was soft, but it startled Castiel, who looked over at Sam to make sure he was still asleep. The younger Winchester groaned and rolled over, pulling the sheets tighter around his body.
"Cas, what are you doing here?" Dean asked, sitting up in bed, the sheets falling to his waist, showing off his bare chest. Castiel looked away quickly.
"Cas, do you have orders for me?" Dean asked. Cas shook his head. "Then what's wrong?" Castiel finally let himself meet Dean's eyes. He moved forward and he sat on the edge of Dean's bed.
"I just wanted to be here – beside you ..." Castiel said. "I was feeling lonely. So I came here. Is that alright?" Dean nodded and smiled. He got out of bed and he stood Castiel up. He began stripping him of his clothes, which Castiel did not object to, before climbing back into bed, motioning for Castiel to join him.
Castiel moved forward and he slipped between the sheets and snuggled up to Dean. Dean immediately put his arms around the smaller man – angel – and snuggled into him. He sighed, contently before kissing his forehead and falling asleep.
Castiel smiled from the embrace. If he fell now, he would not care. He needed Dean.
He had always needed him, just as much as Dean needed Castiel.
