A/N: Sorry it took me so long! I've been sick, with a flu and my parents made me go to school any way, so I was feeling like crap at school and at home, and it just made things worse that I don't understand maths, so I had to study it more than I would if I just understood it...
Anyway! I'm feeling better now and I hope you like this chapter. Please tell me what you think about it (btw thanks for you kind reviews!) even if you don't like it let me know (but please say it nicely!)
I won't take any more of your time! Enjoy the chapter! ^^
Chapter 5 – A ripped book and a falling globe
'I still know this… I'm in love with Dean."
Castiel closed his eye lids and expected Dean's lips in his own.
Castiel opened his eyes when he felt Dean's fingers squeeze his nose.
"Oww!" Castiel barked out, getting his nose free from Dean's hands.
'Wha…'
"Cas…" Castiel, confused looked at Dean's bright green eyes. "…Don't make this easy." He told Cas with a smile and a wink.
Still confused, Castiel took his own hand to his nose.
"What?" Castiel asked.
'I can't believe it! What was I thinking?!'
Wooosh.
The doors of the carriage start to open.
Castiel forces Dean out of his lap and stands up.
'What am I doing? How could I be the only one who was getting in the mood?!'
Castiel walked to the outside of the carriage.
"Cas?" Dean started following Castiel close behind, while calling him.
"Good… Good Bye!" Castiel said and started running.
'I'm so embarrassed! I can't believe I could fall for that!"
Dean started running behind Castiel.
A few seconds later he had caught up with Cas.
"WAIT! CAS!" Dean yelled at him.
People were passing by them fast.
"Leave me alone!" Castiel replied, trying to run even faster.
But Dean was getting closer and closer, and eventually grabbed Castiel's hand.
"Cas… You can be mad at me as much as you want, but I'm not letting you go home alone. I'll take you home." Dean said, between breathes.
The dark haired boy's eyes were watery, and he felt like crap.
"As long as you don't talk to me, and leave me at my place, fine!" Castiel agreed. It seemed like the best way to avoid Dean, and he would get home faster.
"Then come with me." Dean said, with a smile in the tip of his lips.
***Next day ***
Castiel stepped out of the his train. He was lost deep in thought.
'I couldn't sleep much last night. After Dean dropped me home I couldn't do anything… my embarrassment was too big for me to even try and do anything!'
He was almost outside the station when he realized it was raining outside.
'I should open my umbrella!' he thought. He went to grab his umbrella, but to his surprise it wasn't next to his backpack. 'SHIT! I must have left it in the train!'
He was about to move back to try and get inside the train to recover his umbrella when someone clung to his neck.
"AHH!" Castiel yelled, shocked.
"Good morning, Cas! You forgot you umbrella?" Dean said with his face a few inches away from Castiel's.
"Y-Yes." Castiel answered, blushing slightly.
"Come with me… We can share mine." He said, pulling Cas even closer to himself.
"Alright." Castiel agreed, his heart was beating too fast for him to just walk away alone.
"So… Can I ask you something now?" Dean asked.
Castiel nodded.
"About yesterday… Why did you run away?"
"It's just - I mean…" Castiel started.
"Well… The way you got up and started running… I like it, though… You remind me of an untamed cat." Dean told Cas, beaming.
A car was passing by them, just a few step beside them, and he was about to run through a small puddle. Dean, with one simple motion, took his umbrella to the side, to avoid the water to wet them.
"Did you get wet?" Dean asked him.
Taking what Dean said to another way, Castiel blushed deeply.
"N-No." He replied.
"I'm glad." Dean said.
"I wasn't feeling very well." Castiel said. "I mean… Yesterday. I started running away because I wasn't feeling too good. I didn't want to get sick in that place."
Dean smiled at Castiel and nodded.
"Just take this" Dean said, grabbing Castiel's hand and making it grab the umbrella.
He grabbed his own backpack at put it up in his head.
"Dean!" Castiel called.
Dean turned around, watching Castiel's shocked expression while smiling.
"Don't worry, I'm only lending it to you. This way you have an excuse to see me again later! See you, Cas." Dean told him, reassuringly, while winking at him in the end, before walking away in the rain.
Castiel kept walking, until he got to school, his thoughts were so fast the he missed his the fact the just reached the school and was almost in his homeroom.
'The person I fell in love with… Laughs even though he noticed it, even though he is kind, he's mysterious… What… Am I supposed to do? I wonder how Dean feels about what happened yesterday.'
He glanced up and saw Balthazar and Sam in front of the door.
His mind was set in yesterday, as he recalled the previous day's events. 'I really do love you!' and 'Then… Who do you like?' he blushed deeply avoiding trying to answer the question in his mind.
About that time, Balthazar and Sam realized he was in the same hallway as they were.
"Cas…" They said almost instantly.
"Morning!" Balthazar beamed.
Balthazar ruffled Sam's hair, when he didn't say anything.
"Good Morning, Cas!" Sam said and winked at Castiel, with a shy smile in his face. Then he turned his face to Balthazar and yelled at him. "Dammit Balthazar! THAT HURTS!"
Balthazar just laughed.
Castiel smiled watching the two friends interact. They looked so happy. Cas wondered if Balthazar knew that Sam was going out with his brother… If he did he said nothing, ever… But if he didn't, maybe they should starting thinking about telling him. It's not like he is homophobic, since he claims he's in love with Cas, but still, his best friend in love with his brother… He might be a little angry…
The day went slowly. Classes seemed to last forever, and all that Castiel wanted to do was go to the library and read a book.
As soon as he could, he got up from his classroom and went to the library. Got himself a nice book and sat down, in his usual spot and started reading.
The only thing was that now that he was in the library, his mind was travelling to other places, not letting him read the actual book, so he just stared blackly at the page while thinking.
"Cas… You know that you haven't read a single page this whole time?" Dean asked.
Castiel slowly raised his eyes up, and found Dean sitting in front of his, with those green eyes staring at him.
'When did he get here?!'
"Dean!" Castiel said.
Dean grabbed the book from the table and started flipping through the pages until he found what he was looking for.
"Oh! You're reading another mystery! Awesome! Since you can't concentrate, I'll just read the last chapter out loud for you." Dean said with amusement in his voice.
"Huh?!" Castiel was a bit in shock. He wasn't expecting Dean to be so close to him, he thought that Dean was listening to the loud beating that his heart was making. In fact he was astonished the whole room didn't listen to it, so he couldn't just process fast enough to understand what Dean was doing.
Dean flipped the pages back to where Castiel was before and started reading out loud.
"'And for that night's events, Naomi then…'" Dean started reading.
Castiel understood that Dean was reading the book for him, he felt his cheeks being painted red.
"Whaaaaa! Stop!" Castiel said, almost begging.
"'…But I wonder why I didn't notice it…'" Dean continued reading despite Castiel's protests.
"WAIT! PLEASE!" Castiel begged Dean. "STOP!"
"The one who murdered him was…" Dean said with a smirk in his lips.
"STOOOOOOOOOOP!" Castiel screamed.
Dean glanced up and started scolding Castiel.
"Honestly… Can't you just stop screaming?! I'll tell you in a second!" Dean threw out his tongue.
Castiel saw the opportunity and took it. He grabbed the book and pulled it. Dean realized what he was doing and pulled it to himself too, Castiel almost let go of the book, but he still had a page in his hands and wasn't about to let it go. So he pulled he book again.
SHREAD
The door opened and a teacher walked in.
"Why are ya making so much noise?! The library is supposed to be quiet!" It was Mr. Singer, Dean's homeroom teacher. He looked inside the classroom and saw Dean with a book in his hand, and then noticed Castiel had a half of a page with him. "Did ya idjits ripped that?"
Dean grabbed the book and took Castiel's hand.
"Sorry sir. It was an accident." Then he started running – away from the library and the now mad teacher –, pulling Castiel with him.
Castiel wanted to apologize to the teacher, but Dean's grip in his hand was too strong for him to break free, so he just shouted 'Sorry!' at the teacher.
Dean took Castiel to the first empty classroom they found, it was the school's 'Earth Sciences Prep Room'.
Dean sat down in the floor and motioned for Castiel to the same. The older boy opened the book in the page he was reading before.
"We sure did rip it up!" Dean said, with a grin in his face.
Castiel glanced towards Dean.
"We didn't have to run away like that!" Castiel said.
Dean grabbed the cover of the book and its content fell to the floor.
"Eh?" Dean said, processing what just happened.
When he realized the cover was still in his hands he started laughing his ass off. Castiel was laughing pretty hard too. It was just too funny not to laugh like that.
While laughing, Castiel hit the cabinet behind him a bit too hard than it was supposed to. It didn't hurt him, so he continued to laugh happily.
"Oh my god! Honestly! Wha-What do you do now?" Dean said between laughs.
Castiel still laughing, hit the cabinet again, this time with a bit more strength.
Dean saw Castiel hitting the cabinet and looked up, which was pretty lucky for them.
With the impact of Cas' back hitting the cabinet the earth globe that was up in the cabinet started losing balance.
"Should we glue it?" Cas asked, still laughing. "We still need to apologize though."
WOOOSH
In that moment, the globe started to fall towards Castiel's head.
"Cas!" Dean said louder than usual, while getting his body between Cas and the falling globe, he hugged Castiel's waist and pulled him closer.
A rush of blood came creeping in Castiel's face when he felt Dean's body pressed against his.
BONK
BAM
The globe hit Dean's head, and then fell to the floor.
"Dean… Are you… OK?" Castiel asked hesitantly. He was worried with Dean, but he didn't want him to pull way just yet.
Dean got up and wondered to a corner. He pulled his hand in his head and started rubbing it slowly.
"OWW! IT REALLY HURTS! A DIRECT HIT! I THINK I HAVE A PART OF MY BRAIN STINKING OUT!" Dean cried out loud.
"De-" Castiel started.
"OWWW! I'LL GO BALD…" The older boy cried out loud. "I'LL DIE!"
Castiel forgot what he was about to say and started giggling. Slowly it turned into a laugh he couldn't hold, so he hugged his tummy and bent over, laughing as hard as he could.
Dean looked at Castiel, Cas' response was not what he was expecting… He looked a bit hurt from Castiel's response.
"You think it's funny?"
Castiel started trying to talk, trying to explain Dean why it was so funny.
"It-It's just that you're so funny! Your personality… You look like you always do everything so smoothly… I thought you were just going to show off and ask me if I saw you 'protecting me' while smirking… Obviously not hurt!" Cas said, a bit flustered.
Dean smiled towards the dark haired boy.
"Not even I can do that! It really hurts." He told the younger boy still holding his head.
Castiel giggled a bit more.
"You know… If it means I can see your face lit up like this, I'll rip up any number of pages…" Dean said with a mischievous smile plastered in his face.
Castiel stopped laughing.
'My heart… is moving so fast!' Another page gets ripped up by Dean. 'I can't believe it! Just one word from him… And my heart feels like it's going to jump from my chest!'
"Hey, Cas…" Dean called him. "Could you laugh for me one more time?" He said, showing Cas another ripped page.
'He's so sweet.' Castiel thought. 'It's now or never! I will do it!'
"Dean… Did you kiss me?" The younger male asked his face completely tainted red.
Dean moved his neck to face Castiel.
"Why… And just why… Would I necessarily want to kiss you?" Dean asked.
Castiel was caught by surprise.
"Eh?"
"Because I like you?" Dean continued.
"Eh?"
Castiel couldn't say much more than that.
"Even if I did like you, I wouldn't want to do it for that reason… Arrogant!" Dean told him, while poking Cas' forehead.
'It wasn't… It wasn't Dean who kissed me!'
"I'm sorry… I have to go. Good bye." Castiel said, bolting out of the room as fast as he could.
'I… I was totally convinced that Dean had been the one… He's so gentle… I can't believe I misunderstood everything! And I ended up being the only one in love!'
