A/N Hey guys, so because of you're guys wonderful reviews and such, I have decided that once Because Of You is done, I will be making a sequel to the story which hopefully you all shall enjoy just as much as many of you are currently. Anyway, enough of me talking, here's chapter 10 of Because Of You to keep yous happy.

Chapter 10

"I'm so sorry sir... There was nothing we could do... He was killed instantly."

Dean couldn't believe just what exactly he was hearing, it felt like someone had just kicked him hard in the balls and he felt like he was slowly dying from the pain but at the same time, he welcomed the pain, it was better than the unknown.

He had been sitting here in this dark and gloomy hospital ward for almost six hours now and although he had finally received news of how he was doing, Dean still could do nothing more but sit and wait, hopping beyond hope that maybe the doctor in-charge would come back in and tell him that he had the wrong information and that he was sitting up and waiting for him, just getting bandaged up as they spoke.

As Dean continued to sit there, back straight and rigid against the altogether uncomfortable wooden chair that most hospitals had to try and make the visitors feel scared and usual end with them having sore backs, his thoughts tried to fly back to just how exactly this had happened but for some strange reason, Dean couldn't remember how this had happened.

The last thing he could remember was lying spread out on a picnic blanket with Castiel, his boyfriend, legs crossed together and a rather large and wide smile spread across his face as he basked in the warm summer sun with Castiel and the next thing he knew, he was in the hospital, sitting in the very same spot that apparently he had been in for six hours without really knowing why or how he had gotten here when he was sure beyond any doubt that he was okay.

"Dean Winchester?"

Dean slowly looked up as the doctor came walking in, well at least Dean was pretty sure that it was a doctor by the light blue scrubs that the guy was wearing under a long white coat that seemed to yell professionalism out to anyone else in the hospital making Dean watch as the guy walked past other hospital staff how right away, they jumped to and started doing the jobs that they had been assigned rather than standing about doing nothing but gibbering like what they had been doing before the doctor had appeared.

Once the doctor finally approached him, Dean slowly stood up, awaiting the news that all of this had been some sick prank and that he could go home to Castiel now when the doctor started to speak again and Dean felt his whole body tense up as he recognised the accent coming from the doctor.

"I'm so sorry about this Dean."

And Dean felt something stabbing into his gut.

"NO!" Dean screamed, shooting up from his warm position on the pillows like he had just been told that a poisonous spider was scuttling along the pillow towards him.

Breathing heavily a couple of times to try and ease away the pain that the dream had caused him, Dean started to blink slowly a couple of times, trying to think and wonder just where exactly he was and how he had gotten here when a memory from the previous night invaded his mind of Castiel appearing at his door, telling Dean that he loved him and them kissing which had led to them finally sleeping together, a factor that Dean was ecstatic about as he finally remembered where he was and smiled a little bit as he lay back down again, letting his eyes fall to his left where just as he remembered Castiel was lying on his side, facing towards Dean and little puffs of breath escaping him as he continued to sleep, unaware that Dean had awoken.

Smiling softly to himself again, Dean reached out and softly brushed a little bit of Castiel's dark brown hair from his face, causing the other man to grumble against his hand and swat it away, Dean laughing softly to himself at just how cute Castiel was when he was sleeping.

Turning fully onto his side, Dean leaned his head against the pillow, eyes searching all of Castiel's face, finding himself amazed at just how peaceful Castiel looked when he was sleeping, it was like someone had just wiped an eraser over his face taking away all the worry and stress that Dean was so sure had been there ever since Castiel had broken up with Balthazar because of him but then Dean had seen how emotional Castiel had gotten last night after he told Dean he loved him and they had spent most the night kissing and having sex, a new pastime that Dean was slowly beginning to love as when he was with Castiel, Castiel made sure that he was okay and that he was enjoying himself and that he wasn't hurt in anyway, it was like Castiel was a guardian angel sent down from heaven to look after him.

Chuckling softly to himself at how much he was acting like a girl, Dean repositioned himself into a more comfortable position letting one hand reach out to curl around Castiel's waist and slowly pull him closer, loving the feeling of Castiel's naked chest against his own that had him fight hard for a couple of seconds before finally he leaned down and kissed Castiel's neck a few times, placing light butterfly kisses over the hickeys he had made the night before until at last he heard a moan and rustle of sheets informing him that Castiel was now awake.

"Morning" Castiel whispered into his ear, making Dean stop in his assault on Castiel's neck, letting his eyes wander up and into Castiel's own bright blue eyes that were smiling cheekily into Dean's and Dean couldn't help the small laugh that escaped him at how normal Castiel seemed after the amazing night they had had.

"Morning" Dean replied, leaning in slowly and kissing Castiel quickly, his whole body becoming aware as Castiel wrapped arms around him pulling Dean closer until there bodies almost felt like one as Dean wrapped his arms around Castiel's waist, softly running them up Castiel's hip bone making Castiel giggle against his lips and pull away to lightly hit Dean's chest, a small smile on his face.

"Dean, you know I'm ticklish."

Hearing those words whispered against his skin as Castiel leaned back in to softly brush Dean's lips with his own made Dean laugh softly as he returned Castiel's kiss quickly and the next second he had to bite back a groan as Castiel pulled himself away from Dean, starting to get up and out of the bed, Dean instantly reaching out without his consent and wrapping two arms around Castiel's waist, pulling the other male back down onto the bed and pulling him back until Castiel was lying on his back, Dean hovering over him as he took all of Castiel in from the fine delicate features of his face to the slim and sharp chest to his hip-bones that looked so sharp but soft and then down further to the small V that ran from Castiel's slim stomach all the way down to the small wisps of hair between Castiel's thighs and from his dick before Dean let his eyes wander further to Castiel's slim legs before returning to Castiel's eyes and slowly leaning to place a soft kiss against Castiel's lips, a small smile crossing his features as he realized that he could do this anytime he wanted to now, he didn't have to wonder now how Castiel might feel, he could just do it and not be expecting a bad reaction at all.

Breaking away for breath although Dean didn't really want to, he looked down into Castiel's eyes again, seeing those bright eyes were smiling into Dean's own again with a wicked smile that made Dean wonder just what exactly Castiel was about to do and the next second he found out as Castiel flipped them over so Castiel was now atop whilst Dean lay on his back, looking up at the man whom he now hoped he could call his boyfriend.

"You are so beautiful Dean" Castiel uttered that second and Dean found himself lost for a second as he remembered that after he had first met Castiel and had dreamed about him that Castiel had uttered those same words to him and now Dean was hearing them once again which had him laugh softly, surprising Castiel who leaned down, wondering what was so funny.

"What?"

"I was just remembering that after I met you, I had a dream about you and you said those same words to me in the dream, it just felt so weird to finally hear them coming from you're lips" Dean replied softly to Castiel's question causing the other man to laugh softly, leaning down and kissing Dean softly whilst Dean right away wrapped his arms around Castiel's waist once more, pulling Castiel down to his level and the next second he found himself amazed as Castiel pulled away from him once more, resting his forehead against Dean's own.

"I wish I could just stay with you all day but I have to go get my stuff from Gabriel's and you have to get to work" Castiel whispered against his forehead before leaning back and slowly getting up off the bed and this time Dean let him knowing without a doubt that Castiel was right, he did have to go to work and Castiel did have to collect his stuff from Gabriel's house even though Dean really didn't want him to leave.

Slowly leaning up his elbow to watch as Castiel crossed the floor to pick up a pair of boxers that had been thrown haphazardly across the room the night before and pull them up over his slim legs, Dean couldn't help but think back to the night before and how good it had felt as he had kissed Castiel again and again, knowing that he would never grow tired of the feeling of Castiel's lips against his own and he remembered how scared he had first felt when Castiel had popped open the bottle of lube running some over his fingers and inserting one into Dean's tight hole, an action that had made Dean moan with pleasure, almost sure that he nearly screamed the roof down when Castiel added two more fingers before finally deeming him okay and the next second, Dean had found himself unable to breath as Castiel had slid himself slowly into Dean and he could remember the feeling of want and happiness as he had finally connected with Castiel over and over again until at long last Dean was spent and the rest of the night was spent cuddling together, sharing the occasional kiss and talking about everything they loved until they both fell asleep, wrapped in each others arms and Dean was sure that he had never known anything better.

Shaking his head to lift himself from his thoughts, Dean concentrated instead on slowly getting out of the bed, pulling on his own boxers and looking up to see that Castiel was just pulling his grey t-shirt on over his head that the other man had been wearing the yesterday and Dean couldn't help but smile to himself at how amazing it felt to see Castiel do the walk of shame but knowing that it had been worth it to know that Castiel was now his.

Once finished getting dressed, Dean walked out into the living room to see Castiel sitting on his couch, pulling on his trainers with one hand whilst the other hand was holding his cell phone that he was speaking quickly and quietly into.

"Yes Gabriel, I am just about to leave Dean's just now... No, Gabriel, I shall not tell you about what me and Dean get up to in the dark.. Gabriel!. Gabriel please. No Lucifer cannot inspect him to see if he wants to set him on fire or not."

At that Dean who had been about to pull out an apple for his breakfast from the fridge, stopped in his tracks, trying to understand why someone would want to set him on fire when he had done nothing wrong but then he remembered the name that Castiel had uttered, Lucifer, and couldn't help but believe the guy running around like the devil, just randomly letting people know how he felt about them with the fire threat.

"Okay Gabriel. Bye."

Dean heard a small click and after a moments debate pulled another apple out from the fridge, closing it behind him and walking back into the living room where Castiel was still sitting on the couch, his phone away now but he was currently rubbing his temples as if his conversation with this Gabriel person had worn him out.

"Hey, you okay?" Dean asked softly, placing the two apples down onto the arm of the couch before placing two hands onto Castiel's shoulders and rubbing them softly, happy when Castiel moaned and leaned back into the touch.

"Yes I am fine Dean. It would seem that my brother Gabriel wishes to ask me about my night spent squeezing the fruits as he calls it and will probably question me when I return."

Dean could only laugh to himself as he leaned forward, placing his head onto Castiel's shoulder and softly placing a kiss against Castiel's neck, nuzzling in in the next second and watching how Castiel leaned into the touch, turning his head at the last second to kiss Dean quickly, pulling away when he seemed to notice something behind Dean.

"Dean? Are you eating an apple?" Castiel asked, a small smirk working its way onto his face that had Dean pale a little bit, wondering if just maybe Castiel hated apples when the other continued.

"As I shall have to ask you to save me one."

Right away, Dean pulled the two apples up from the couch, placing one into Castiel's hand and leaving the other for himself as he watched Castiel quickly bite into the apple, a small moan escaping him as the juice ran into his mouth making Dean turn away for fear that he might just take Castiel there and then if the other didn't stop all his sex noises.

"Thanks Dean, what time do you finish?" Castiel asked that second through a mouthful of apple but Dean still managed to understand him as he replied back that he finished around four today.

"Okay, I probably won't be back until around six if Gabriel has anything to say about it so shall I pick up my own dinner?"

"No Cas, don't be silly. I'll make some dinner when I get home and just save it for you."

Castiel gave his thanks with a small kiss to Dean's cheek and then after a quick kiss to Dean's lips, Castiel was on his way out of the door and heading down the drive whilst all Dean could really do was stand at the back of the couch and stare at the closed door, trying to understand just how on earth he had gotten so lucky to be with a guy as amazing as Castiel Novak.

These things just didn't usually happen to guys like him.

It was a miracle.

A/N So here it is. The end of Chapter 10 and we see Dean and Castiel the morning after the night before. Hope you all enjoyed this chapter and are eagerly awaiting the next chapter which should be up as soon as possible.

Until then
