"Hey Dean?" Cas whispered and rolled to check if Dean was awake.
"Yeah?" Dean whispered back.
"I know that we're still supposed to be having our normal day, but I can't stop thinking about the trial," Cas admitted.
"Yeah, same," Dean replied. "Besides, technically it's after midnight so we can stop pretending to be even the teensiest bit regular."
"Good," Cas replied, then tilted his head up to gently kiss his boyfriend's lips.
Cas could feel Dean smiling against his lips and wished that every moment could be exactly like this one.
He was unfortunately dragged back into reality much too soon by Dean pulling away and asking, "So, you've been thinking about the trial; what about it?" This illustrated to Cas just how easy it was for his happiness to be ripped away from him.
Cas sighed, "I think that I want to testify. I mean, yeah, as stupid as it may sound, I still love the guy. After all, he is my dad. That is never going to change. But I can't let him just get away with trying to kill you. I love you way too much."
Cas pecked Dean quickly on the lips with a faint smile.
"I love you too, Angel-Boy," Dean whispered. "But are you sure that you want to testify?"
"For now I am," Cas said, before resting his head back on Dean's chest.
They laid like that in silence for several minutes as Dean gently stroked his boyfriend's hair.
This was yet another moment that Cas wanted to stay in for the rest of his life. The experience ended suddenly as Dean rolled him off. Once again, he felt his moment of happiness cut short.
"Sorry, I have to pee," Dean apologized as he quietly got out of the bed.
When Dean returned, just minutes later, Cas had already fallen into a deep sleep after a long and tiring day.
Dean smiled to himself as he snuck back into his spot next to Cas.
He gently kissed the sleeping boy's forehead, then rested his head back onto the pillow while closing his eyes.
Dean and Cas woke up at precisely 8:37 the next morning, their sleep interrupted by a phone loudly ringing.
"I thought that we would have had a little more time before they called," Cas whispered groggily.
"I did too," Dean whispered back.
There was a sudden silence as someone else picked up the phone.
"Maybe it's not them," Dean whispered.
"Who else would it be?" Cas asked skeptically. "I don't think there would be many other people calling your house this early on a Sunday morning."
"Yeah, I guess not," Dean admitted.
Dean and Cas laid there staring at each other for a solid ten minutes before footsteps could be heard in the hallway.
"Here we go," Dean whispered.
There came a light rapping on Dean's door, before John Winchester opened it up. He entered the room, followed closely by a half asleep Sam. John was looking unusually pale.
"What's going on?" Sam asked as he rubbed his eyes sleepily.
"I just got a phone call," John said, then paused as if he wasn't sure how to word the next part.
"Congratulations, can I go back to bed now?" Sam asked sarcastically, seemingly too tired to notice his father's pallid state.
"No, you need to know this," John insisted.
Something in his voice seemed to have gotten through to Sam, who sat down silently at the foot of Dean's bed.
"It was from the police station," John said before pausing once again.
Dean and Cas made eye contact, bracing themselves for what they knew was coming next.
"Apparently Cas's dad broke out of prison sometime last night. They're looking for him now and they're going to have a patrol car stationed in front of our house and your foster one, Cas," John informed them.
"What?" Dean asked as he rapidly sat up. His eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets.
Sam suddenly became much more awake as his head whipped up, his facial expression matching that of his twin brother's.
Cas, however, remained frozen in shock, unable to say a word. It amazed him how easily his happiness could just be ripped away from him.
