Dean returned to the apartment and was greeted by Cas smiling at the door.
"Hey."
Cas said, helping Dean shrug off his coat.
"Good day at work?"
Dean sighed.
"Not really, I had a bad customer this morning- kinda put me in a bad mood."
"You wanna talk about it?"
"Gimme a minute Cas, I'll shower and change- I'm still all greasy from the shop."
Cas nodded, Dean took a quick shower and sat on the couch.
"So, What happened?"
"I'm not gonna lie to you Cas, but I think you might get worried."
"Why?"
Cas asked, he furrowed his brow nervously.
"I had this guy- Balthazar walk in. Apparently he's an ex of yours."
Dean stopped as he noticed Cas' expression go from worried, to almost terrified.
"He threatened me cos he thought we were dating- what the fuck is wrong with him?"
Cas gave Dean a blank stare, and felt a cold sweat coming on.
"T-too..too many things."
Cas stuttered.
Dean gave Cas a comforting look and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Cas- what did he do to you?"
"He...he..."
Cas burst into tears, and buried his head into Dean's shoulder.
Dean wrapped one arm around Cas' waist, pulling him closer, and another patted Cas' back comforting him.
"It's okay...I understand you if you don't wanna talk about it- I'm not gonna push you. Just know that that dick is never gonna hurt you- not while you live with me."
Cas gave Dean a sad smile.
"Thanks Dean."
Dean gave him a smile.
"Of course."
Cas stood up, heading toward his bedroom.
"What are you doing?"
Dean asked.
"I think I'm gonna head to bed early."
Cas said, Dean noticed the tears that glassed over his eyes.
"Do you want me to stay with you tonight?"
"No, I'll let you sleep in your bed tonight."
Dean stared at him before standing up and approaching him.
"Let me rephrase that- I'm staying with you tonight."
Cas gave Dean a small smile, the two entered the bedroom, falling into the same routine as the night before.
The next morning they woke up, Dean got out of bed and made his morning coffee.
Cas walked out of the room a few minutes later, yawning.
"Hey, I made you some coffee- shouldn't you be dressed for work?"
Cas smiled.
"I called in sick with "the flu" yesterday- since I've never had a day off before, they offered me the week off with full pay.
Dean laughed.
"You lucky bastard."
He said, taking a final sleep of his coffee before setting it down.
"Some of us actually have to go to work- why don't you get some cleaning done while I'm gone."
Dean walked by, ruffled Cas' hair and gave him a kiss on the cheek before walking toward the door.
He stopped and turned around.
"I'm..I'm sorry about the kiss."
Cas smiled as he strolled over to Dean and stared into his green eyes.
"I'm not."
He said, before pressing a kiss to Dean's lips. He grinned slightly as he felt Dean kiss back, nipping at his bottom lips slightly. Dean brushed his tongue against Cas' lips before sliding it into his mouth, exploring it. Dean finally pulled away.
"I really have to go now."
Dean said with a smirk.
"Okay."
Cas grinned.
"Bye."
Dean said, opening the door to leave.
"Goodbye Dean."
Cas said, shutting the door behind him. Cas closed the door, leant back on it and sighed, slowly sliding to the floor. He had a good feeling about today.
