Title: Angel Nightmares
Summary: Castiel has a nightmare from his past sins and Dean comforts him.
Rating: T
Dean was sleeping deeply when he was suddenly woken up by a shove. He looked to the side and saw Castiel fighting off a nightmare. He moved over to Castiel and started to shake him.
"Cas, wake up, wake up!" Dean said, "C'mon buddy, you gotta wake up."
Castiel eyes shot wide open, blue eyes looking terrified. He then looked at Dean and dove into his arms, sobbing loudly. Dean just held the angel tightly, rubbing his back as he soothed him.
"Shhh, Cas, shhh." Dean crooned, "What's the matter, angel?"
"It-it was with Balthazar. It was when I killed Balthazar."
"Oh Cas." Dean said in a mournful tone.
The angels never talked about it; when Castiel was about to take in the souls to purgatory and when he killed Balthazar, who betrayed him to stop him from destroying himself.
Dean and Balthazar knew Castiel still felt guilty about it, how it nearly consumed him. How Balthazar hides the scar he has on his chest, so Castiel won't see it. They decided that Castiel has already dealt with enough guilt.
Dean sighs to himself as he holds the distraught angel, knowing he has to talk about this to Balthazar. This wasn't going to be conversation any of them were going to like.
AN: This came to me when I was in shower, where I always get my best ideas.
I think Cas would feel very guilty for killing Balthazar, since it seems he's the only angel that actually gives a damn about Cas and actually betrayed him so he won't hurt himself. I also think Dean and Balthazar love Cas too damn much to let him know about Balthazars scar or anything that has to do with the whole purgatory thing. Yeah, I put Balthazar with a scar here.
This will be two parts, next will have Balthazars reaction.
If you are wondering why Balthazar isn't there, he just somewhere checking something out.
Enjoy and comments are loved! I don't own SPN, if I did, Destiel would have been canon by season 6 and Gabriel and Balthazar would not have been killed off.
