A loud thunder clap could suddenly be heard, snapping Castiel awake. He rolled over as his eyes started to adjust to the darkness. The clock on his nightstand read 10:30pm. He shook his head. Not even really remembering going to sleep. He almost went back to sleep but then he heard noises from the other side of the room. He sat up and looked over to see Nathaniel was tossing in his sleep.

"Damn. He's probably fighting those memories." Castiel said with a shake of his head.

It had been Marko and Kentin who had called social services on Nathaniel's dad when they were in highschool. Castiel had helped with the other part. Getting Nathaniel emancipated and back on his feet. He wasn't sure of why he had helped at first. He just had chosen to help.

"Nath?" Castiel called quietly but the blonde was still tossing about.

Castiel got to his feet and went over to Nathaniel's side. He shook him lightly, trying to get him out of the nightmare. Still nothing changed.

"Dammit Nath! Get out of the past already!" he shouted at his friend as he shook him a bit rougher.

Nathaniel's eyes shot open, terror running through them. Though the moment he registered where he was, and who was in front of him, he quickly sat up and collected himself.

"Sorry about that." he murmured, "I'll be fine in a bit."

"Like hell you will." Castiel said bitterly, causing Nathaniel to shoot him a glare.

"Again, that friction you spoke of before." Nathaniel told Castiel, looking away.

Castiel gave a sigh and leaned back on his hands. "Take the bed."

"Why?" Nathaniel asked him, not sure he understood what was going through the red-head's thoughts.

"Just take the bed. I'll crash on the floor. Maybe something more comfortable will help you sleep better." Castiel told him, looking up at the ceiling. He wished the others had gotten back already. Less temptation that way.

"I'm good on the floor Cas, I just let my thoughts drift before I fell asleep is all." Nathaniel told him, "Besides, it's your bed."

Castiel shook his head in annoyance. "It's just us here. You can drop the tough guy act in front of me."

Nathaniel looked over at him and raised a brow, "Tough guy act? Last I checked that was your area not mine."

Castiel glared at him, greatly unamused. "I'm not acting. I'm not trying to be some tough guy. I'm trying to be a friend but damn do you make that an impossible task."

Nathaniel scoffed at that. "If it's so impossible then why do you keep trying?"

Castiel shot him a look that could chill to the bone. "You know damn well why."

"Because you like me?" Nathaniel questioned with a wry grin, "Yet how much do you really know about me Cas?"

"More than I sometimes like knowing." Castiel retorted, a hint of venom in his voice. "I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment or something because even your dark side draws me in."

Nathaniel's bravado faltered a bit at that. He hadn't expected Castiel to like him when his darker and more devious side showed itself. He hadn't expected Castiel to even stick around after their conversation earlier. The argument they'd had...he was almost certain Castiel would toss him out of the room. Yet, he continued to try and protect him and care for him.

"Why?" Nathaniel questioned him, shoving him and pinning him to the ground.

"Why what?" Castiel growled low. Nathaniel had really begun to drive on his patience. Though what drove his patience the most was how much he really enjoyed being pushed around like this. He was definitely starting to think he was a masochist with all the shit he put up with because of this guy.

"Why do you care so damn much? Why are you drawn to me?" Nathaniel asked, his conflicting emotions ringing in his voice.

Castiel stared him down, knowing full well that he could knock Nathaniel off of him if he really wanted to. "Because I love you dammit!"

Nathaniel's bravado once again faltered, but only for a moment. He kept Castiel pinned, actually putting his weight into it, and leaned in near Castiel's ear. "Prove it Cas. Show me this supposed love you have because frankly you drive me up the wall."

Castiel glared at that. "I drive you up the wall?" He asked bitterly as he tried to get out from under Nathaniel's surprisingly strong grasp. "Do you have any idea how difficult it is to restrain myself around you? Especially when you pull shit like this!"

"Then why do you fight it?" Nathaniel asked him, a hint of seduction in his voice as his warm breath brushed over Castiel's neck.

Castiel felt a low growl building in the back of his throat. He rolled them and pinned Nathaniel to the floor now. "You don't want to see that Nath. You're confused and panicked. You're too sucked in to the abuse of your past to realize that I'm not gonna hurt you. Not like that. Sure as hell not sexually. So quit trying to rile me up." His voice was stern, even, and damn near deadly at this point.

Nathaniel just smirked, getting one hand free of Castiel's grasp. He pushed Castiel off him and sat up. He stared down Castiel who looked like he was torn between slugging him and walking out the door for a smoke.

"You bipolar or something?" Castiel asked, as he sat up. He kept on guard not sure what to make of the situation. If Nath was trying to rile me up, boy did he succeed. I'm two bratty remarks from going all out on him. He thought as he tried to calm himself.

"Not really." Nathaniel said, smirk still plastered on his face.

Castiel leaned back against his bed that he had somehow made it next to. He wasn't going outside with the weather as crazy as it was. He needed something to calm his nerves though. Especially when the cause of his twisted nerves was right in front of him.

"Speechless now?" Nathaniel asked, deciding to sit next to him.

Castiel gave him a death glare at that point. "You really want me to 'prove my love' to you?"

Nathaniel's eyes gained a mischievous glint to them. "That's correct."

Castiel got to his feet, pulling Nathaniel up with him. "Fine, then we'll do things my way from here out. No questions asked."

Nathaniel didn't even have time to reply before Castiel had laid him down on the bed and soon enough claimed his mouth. He wasn't sure what he'd been trying to do. He just felt like he had been pushing Castiel too much, so he switched gears and made Castiel push back. He could feel the red-head's hands run over his body. Touching, teasing, learning things about him that made his body react in ways he hadn't expected.

"C-Cas..." Nathaniel gasped when Castiel had lightly bit into his shoulder.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you Nathaniel. I'll make sure you enjoy yourself." Castiel whispered, his voice almost sensual.

Nathaniel gulped quietly as he just nodded, having been the one that instigated this in the first place. Knowing that Castiel had been close to his breaking point the night before. He ran his hands over Castiel's chest, slipping them over his shoulders to clutch to them.

Castiel grinned lightly and trailed kisses over Nathaniel's shoulder, causing the blonde to shudder under him. He nipped lightly at Nathaniel's neck before making his way closer to Nathaniel's lips. Those lips that seemed to beg for him to claim them again. Though he would choose to avoid them for now. He wanted to hear Nath's pleasured reactions. Every single one.

"C-Cas...how far..." Nathaniel stammered, suddenly not sure what he got himself into.

Castiel smirked and kissed Nathaniel's cheek. "Just let me do my thing, love."

Nathaniel nodded again and felt Castiel work his tank top off of him, getting rid of his own soon after. Castiel then ran his hands down Nathaniel's sides and pulled the boxers he wore down to reveal how hard Nathaniel really was.

"Seems I'm doing my job well." Castiel murmured before licking the tip, not even watching Nathaniel's reactions anymore. He could tell the blond was enjoying himself.

"Sh-shut up." Nathaniel stammered, trying to keep from letting a moan escape his lips.

Castiel smirked and slowly ran his tongue over the tip of Nathaniel's hard-on. He was making sure to be slow and deliberate with his tongue movements. Glad he could torture and pleasure Nathaniel all at the same time. He slipped the hard-on into his mouth, hearing a low moan from his prey.

Is this what he's been holding back this whole time? Nathaniel thought as he felt sensual flames skate every spot Castiel touched.

Castiel sucked on Nathaniel's hard-on. He ran his hands over the blond's sides, nails lightly digging in as they went down. He felt his mind run wild with the fact he was actually doing this. He was actually getting to really taste Nathaniel and tease him in a far more provocative way.

"Nnngh..." Nathaniel moaned as he slid his fingers into Castiel's hair, forcing him to take in more. The teasing was becoming too much and part of him was conflicted about how much he enjoyed this.

Castiel's eyes widened for a moment but then he released Nathaniel and kissed his stomach just above his dick. "You really don't know what it means when I say we play by my rules do you?" he teased and kissed Nathaniel more.

Nathaniel gasped at the sudden release but felt himself turn a bit red at how Castiel looked at him. "Wh-what do you mean?"

"I mean you don't obey all that well." Castiel smirked and stripped them both of their remaining clothes. He lowered himself onto the blushing Nathaniel and kissed his neck lightly. "Now I'll have to teach you."

"T-teach me what?" Nathaniel whispered, his mind going blank with the pleasure.

"How to obey me." Castiel said with a smirk, one hand running over Nathaniel's cock.

"A-ah..." Nathaniel moaned and ran his hand over Castiel's cheek. He forced Castiel's lips against his into a passionate kiss. He slipped his tongue into the red-head's mouth and pulled him closer. He wanted to feel their bodies touch, to feel the heat of Castiel's lips, to explore his mouth. He couldn't understand why, but he wanted all of this.

Castiel had been mildly surprised by the sudden forced kiss, but he took advantage of it. He ran his tongue over Nathaniel's. He pressed against the blond's skin, rubbing his hard cock against Nathaniel's. He wanted to play harder, push further, but he wasn't going to try for too much just yet. He needed to get Nathaniel to truly enjoy himself without being turned off by it.

Nathaniel broke the kiss just to feel Castiel nip at his collarbone. "P-please. M-more." He moaned, his eyes glazed over in pleasure.

"Not quite yet." Castiel whispered, rubbing their cocks together, hoping to get him to climax that way.

"Please..." Nathaniel whispered, voice strained.

Castiel smirked and rubbed their cocks together more. "Please what?" he teased and kissed his collarbone.

"P-please. I n-need more..." Nathaniel begged, the pleasure consuming him.

Castiel smirked, "If that's what you want."

The red-head ran his hand over the blond's slick cock. He straddled Nathaniel, slipping the blond's cock in him. A moan escaped both their lips.

"C-Cas...you sure...?" Nathaniel whispered, surprised at how good it felt to be inside his friend.

"I'm sure." Castiel whispered as he began to move on top of Nathaniel, the blond's hands holding onto him.

They fell into the throws of desire as the storm raged on outside the window. Heat and passion both chasing across their skin. The friction seeming to dissipate as a whole new world opened up.
