Ohio…?

"Spent my days with a woman unkind, smoked my stuff and drank…all my wine…Made up my mind gonna make a new start, going to California with an aching…in my heart"

Dean opened his eyes and rolled over to smile at Castiel, "Ready?"

Castiel stopped singing and furrowed his brows in confusion, "For what?"

"You'll see." Dean smiled, getting out of bed and grabbing the bags he had packed the night before after Castiel had gone to sleep.

~o0o0o0o~

Castiel's confusion continued to grow as Dean drove out of Lawrence and to Kansas City. "Dean?" Castiel asked as Dean pulled into the airport parking garage and turned the engine off. Dean remained silent as Castiel stepped out of the car after him, tilting his head in question.

"You'll see," Dean repeated, his smile only growing.

Castiel shook his head grabbing his bag from the trunk and following Dean into the airport.

"Put these in," Dean told him, handing Castiel a pair of ear buds and his MP3 player.

"Is this truly necessary, Dean?" Castiel asked, unsure of whether to be more amused or irritated.

"Yes; I want it to be a surprise," Dean insisted, still smiling like a five-year-old on Christmas.

Castiel shook his head and put the ear buds in, allowing the sound of AC/DC to block out everything around him as Dean led them through the airport.

Finally after what seemed like an eternity of processing they were sitting down on the plane and Dean finally gestured for Castiel to take the ear buds out. "No electronic devices," Dean explained, taking his music player back.

The plane began to take off and Castiel felt Dean tense up next to him. He glanced at Dean in confusion for a moment before it hit him, "You're afraid of flying!"

"Gold star for you," Dean mumbled through clenched teeth, his hand tightening on the armrest.

"Mind telling what place is so important to you that you're willing to fly there?" Castiel asked, hoping to distract his lover.

"Well it's not someplace that I want to go per say…" Dean evaded. "It's someplace a little birdie informed me that you like."

Castiel's heart squeezed at that, Dean was facing his fear of flying to take him somewhere he wanted to go? "Do I get a hint?" Castiel asked, wanting to distract himself as well as Dean now.

"I know what you're doing," Dean told him, glancing over.

"And what would that be?" Castiel asked innocently.

"You're trying to distract me from flying."

"And is it working?" Castiel asked sheepishly.

"A little," Dean smiled, taking Castiel's hand in his as the plane finally leveled out, "Thanks."

"Does this mean I get a hint?" Castiel asked, squeezing Dean's hand.

"Hmm," Dean thought a moment trying to come up with something that wouldn't give it away completely. "We have a thirty minute layover in Denver."

Castiel glared at Dean half-heartedly, "That is the shittiest hint I have ever heard."

Dean shrugged, "Maybe if you distract me during the landing you'll get another one."

Castiel nodded, accepting the challenge and settled into the two hour flight.

Thankfully there was no turbulence and the flight went overall smoothly. As they started their decent Dean turned to Castiel expectantly, his voice tight as he forced a smile, "Got that distraction ready?"

Castiel smirked, cupping Dean's cheek and bringing their lips together. Dean stayed tense for a moment uncertain about doing this on a public airplane, but the moment Castiel's tongue touched his lips he melted into the man next to him. As their kiss intensified Castiel trailed his hand from Dean's cheek to tangle in the back of Dean's spiky hair, tugging it lightly.

"God, Cass," Dean panted into Castiel's mouth, shifting to get a better angle as he gripped the back of Castiel's neck and slipped his tongue into the smaller man's mouth.

"Mmm," Castiel hummed his agreement, eagerly swirling his tongue with Dean's as he trailed his other hand down Dean's body to palm the bulge that was quickly forming in his pants. He squeezed gently earning a small moan.

Dean's mind melted further as he wrapped his other arm around Castiel's waist and nipped playfully at his lower lip.

Castiel smiled against Dean's lips and was preparing to pull down the other man's zipper when he heard a small cough. He reluctantly removed his lips from Dean's to look up and see that most of the plane was already empty and that the cough had come from a young brunette stewardess. "Yes?" He asked, his voice an octave lower than normal.

"The um…We…The plane has landed sir…s," She smiled nervously trying to hide her blush.

"Right," Dean coughed uncomfortably as he unbuckled his seatbelt and stood.

"Thank you," Castiel smiled nervously at the stewardess as he followed Dean out of their seats, "And my apologies for the um…" He gestured between himself and Dean, who was now chewing his lower lip.

"No problem," She shook her head as her hazel eyes smiled at them, "It was my pleasure or um…yeah." She nodded nervously and quickly walked the opposite way.

Dean burst out laughing as he grabbed Castiel's hand and led them off the plane.

Castiel gave him a curious look as they headed to the baggage claim, "What?"

"I didn't know if that girl was going to run screaming to the security desk or to orgasm," He chuckled, picking up their bags.

Castiel looked at Dean in puzzlement for a moment before shaking his head, "Do I get my hint now?"

"Hmm," Dean hummed, "That was some damn good distracting…Alright the state we're going to starts with an 'O', now put these in," He handed the MP3 player and ear buds back to Castiel.

Castiel's face twisted in puzzlement as he accepted the items from Dean, "You're taking me to…Ohio…?"

Dean snorted handing Castiel's bag to him so that he could hold his hand again, "God I-" Dean caught himself quickly before that dreaded 'L' word could leave his lips- "thought you were smarted than that," He hurried on, "Don't you know your Geometry? Ohio is nowhere near where we are. It's in the opposite direction!"

Castiel bit his lip from laughing as he put the ear buds in, completely missing Dean's almost-slip-up, "I believe you mean Geography, babe," Castiel chuckled.

"Yeah," Dean nodded, thankful that Castiel had missed his cover up, "That's completely what I meant."

~o0o0o0o~

The next flight passed the same as the previous, smooth and filled with Castiel trying to gain more hints as to where they were going, the only differences being its length of nearly three hours and that fact that Castiel didn't dare make out with Dean during the landing for fear of coming into contact with a less friendly flight attendant.

And due to the fact that Castiel wasn't in a lip lock with Dean as the announcements were made he finally learned where they were going.

"Good afternoon and thank you for flying with us today!" Came the bubbly voice over the intercom, "For your safety, please remain fully seated until the plane has come to a complete stop. We hope that you fly with us again soon and welcome to Medford, Oregon. Have a wonderful day!"

Castiel's brow furrowed, the name sounded familiar but… His eyes widened as he turned to Dean, "You're taking me to Ashland!?"

The plane came to a complete stop and Dean stood, smiling down at Castiel and offering him a hand.

"Oh my God!" Castiel exclaimed, jumping up from his seat and into Dean's arms. "No one's ever taken me here before!" He continued, releasing Dean so that they could exit the plane, "How did you…Gabriel."

"Yep," Dean nodded, he almost told Castiel the full story, but something about Gabriel's tone told him that he wanted him to stretch it, "I asked Gabe what he thought would be a good idea for our one month anniversary and he said that no one you'd been with in the last couple of years had taken you here and that you were dying to go so…" Dean shrugged, picking up their bags and leading to where the map said the car rental desk was.

Castiel couldn't speak and couldn't wipe the smile off of his face until they got into their black Toyota rental car, and even then the smile wasn't going anywhere, "You…" He shook his head unable to look at Dean as he spoke, "You're one of the most amazing, caring human beings I have ever met and anyone in their right mind would be lucky to find you and hold you forever."

"Thanks, Cass," Dean breathed, suddenly feeling like the air in the car was much thicker. "I've been thinking the same about you." He took Castiel's hand in his and gave it a light squeeze.

Castiel squeezed back and in that moment both men came to the realization that they were far from being in their right mind.

A/N#2: Woo nother chapter done! And yet a nother on the way! This saying fuck you to the outside world and throwing myself into my fandom and personal fitness thing is really doing wonders for my writing

P.S. The song Cass sings at the beginning is "Going To California" by Led Zeppelin and is an awesome song!
