Cas' POV
I carefully ran my fingers through Dean's hair, even though he was awake his breathing was relaxed and his eyes were unfocused. I hated how quickly whatever happened happened. I couldn't hold back my worry and desperately wanted to search Dean's mind but I promised him long before we became a couple that I wouldn't do that to him unless I needed to. While I desperately wanted to, and if Dean refused to talk to me then I might but, for now he was doing better.
After nearly half an hour Dean's arms tightened around me and very softly he said, "I'm sorry Cas… t..that probably freaked you out."
I looked down to meet his eyes and carefully cupped his cheek, "That's not what I am worried about right now Dean, what happened."
Dean closed his eyes and it took another minute before he spoke, his voice waivering minutely. "I… I don't know… One minute its fine and then suddenly Alistair's voice was in my ear telling me you… you didn't really want me and I fucking everything up. Then all of a sudden I was back in Hell. Saying that I would never escape again and… and then he wanted to punish me for escaping. D…did I hurt you?"
I carefully rubbed the back of his neck, "We are fine, I tried to hold you to calm you down but you freaked out more, so I let go. I called Sam to help… but that doesn't matter right now Dean. What matters is that you understand I couldn't be who I am today without you. You are my husband Dean and I love you and our child is going to love you. Do you need something to eat?"
Dean shook his head and pulled me closer, "I could have hurt you and Logan…"
I made Dean look at me, "Hey, if I really thought I was in danger I would have used what I have left of my powers. Don't worry about me or Logan, we are fine."
Dean closed his eyes before the tears that were pooling in his eyes could fall and I kissed his head lightly. Dean put a hand on my abdomen where It was clear now Logan was residing, I could feel Logan reacting to his Father's touch and I smiled, but then Dean's eyes widened and he pressed his fingers into my skin more, "Is… Is that?"
I looked at him, "You can feel him?"
Dean's eyes were watery for a different reason and he smiled brightly then moved down so he was face to face with my round abdomen, "Hey there hotshot, are you making Daddy feel better."
I smiled and stroked my fingers through his hair, "He recognizes you, and your voice, he can sense your soul even though he can't see it yet. He is happy, I can feel him, if you could feel it Dean… its wonderful."
Dean closed his eyes and laid his head on my stomach, I watched as he started to drift off and I smiled.
A week later…
Gabe just got back yesterday, Gabriel and Sam locked themselves in Sam's room, luckily he used soundproofing, not that it matter, I wasn't able to sleep at all last night. I spent the night setting up Logan's nursery and thoroughly cleaning it. It was currently 6 am, and I was still cleaning and arranging everything. I was so distracted I didn't hear Dean come In until he knocked, and cleared his throat, "Cas babe did you sleep at all?"
I chewed on my lip and looked up at Dean, "Um… no"
Dean came over to me and kneeled next to me, "Everything okay?"
I shrugged, "I couldn't sleep, I needed to make sure everything was ready for him…"
Dean smiled a bit and carefully kissed my head, "Your nesting."
I raised my eyebrow, "Nesting?"
Dean nodded, "Yes Mom's do It when they are close to giving birth, come on babe, you need to get some rest"
I hummed softly and let Dean help me up, just as I got up there was intense pain shootng up my back, I winced and clung to Dean's hand, "Fuck!"
Dean moved to support me and his face twisted with concern, "Cas, Cas are you okay?"
I whimpered as the pain was intense and closed my eyes tightly, "I… I don't know… it… it hurts."
I could feel Dean guiding me to a chair and he carefully helped me sit down, "Okay babe, what hurts?"
I struggled to take in a breath becausee of the pain, but forced myself to then shakily spoke, "M…my back it feels like someone is squeezing it…"
Dean's eyes widened and he softly cupped my cheek, "I think you are In labor sweetie, do you think you'll be okay for me to go get Gabriel?"
I whimpered and even though I didn't want Dean to leave me right now, I knew I needed Gabriel to help me, "O…okay…"
Dean leaned forward and carefully kissed my forehead, "I will be right back sweetie, okay, make sure you take deep breaths"
