Silent Angel:
You found him:
"Hey, Cas" Dean said as the little boy walked out of his house and got into the shotgun seat. "You alright?"
"Ys" Castiel smiled.
"So, about school" Dean began, turning to face Castiel. "Micheal told me you've never been in a relationship before, ever. So, there are somethings we need to set straight." Castiel tilted his head in confusion, he looked worried,
'What is Dean getting at? He won't break up with me will he?'
"No, Cas, it's nothing bad. I just think there are a few things about high-school couples you should know, that's all" Dean quickly said; noticing Castiel's worried face. After Castiel's sigh of relief, he contuied.
"In high-school, two men or to girls, being together is not really considered... Acceptable. It's bad or wrong. I know, it's stupid but that's how everyone see's it. I have no problems going public with you, I don't care what others say. I just wanted to make sure you knew that - uh - people are gonna stare and they will - uh - call us names and they will hate on us, constantly and if you didn't want people to know yet I am more than willing to keep it privet."
Castiel looked at Dean again, he was more confused that ever.
'Why is it wrong? Why is it bad? It's just love, right? Who cares if people stare? If they stare, give them something to stare at, make it worth their while. I would never want to deny liking Dean. I mean, he makes me so happy. Of corse Dean has no issues with it, his brother's like, huge. His only 13 but his almost the same size as Dean now, and just as strong. Not that I think about Sam that way, because I don't but, wow, that kid it massive!'
"Cas" Dean waved a hand in front of the boys face, "come back to earth, buddy."
"Ys" Castiel shock his head, bringing him back.
"So, you're ok with them knowing?"
"Ys."
"Ok, good. School, yeah let's go." Dean took Castiel's hand and squeezed it tightly, forcing Castiel to blush. Lightly, Dean pressed his lips to Castiel's red check before starting the engine to drive to school.
Before getting out the car, Dean turned to Cas again,
"You sure you're ok with this?" Dean asked again.
"Ys" Castiel chuckled, 'God, will he just stop asking me. I'm sure.'
"You want me to stop asking don't you?"
"Ys"
"Ok. Sorry, I just want to make sure you're alright with it. Come on then" Dean got out the car and moved round to open the door for Castiel. With out worry or care, Dean took Cas's hand and locked the car. People were staring at them already. Sure, they felt a little uncomfortable but if people don't like it then people don't have to look at it.
"It's ok, Cas" Dean assured him pulling the boy closer. Castiel's smile told him that he knew. Castiel pulled his arms around Dean's waist, squeezing tightly.
"You guys look happy" Came Sam's voice from behind them.
"Sammy" Dean said turning, "for once, I am happy. I got the boy of my dreams. I'm more than happy."
"It's good to see you smiling again, you happy too Cas?" Sam asked running over.
"Ys" Castiel nodded as Sam.
"Good" Sam smiled, "I'm glad. You guys going to the library?"
"Yeah" Dean was curoise, 'Sam never needed an excuse to go to the library before, what is he up to?'
"Mind if I join you?" Sam asked hoping Dean wouldn't ask why.
"No, come on."
So they all walked to the library. A little while after arriving, it became clear to Dean, why Sammy was in the library, he was spying on a girl. She had blond hair and blue eyes.
"Sam" Dean whispered, "just go talk to her!"
"I don't know what to say" Sam said behind the book he wasn't reading.
"Just say hi"
"Hi" Sam thought for a second, "no. That's stupid, she'll never want to talk to me."
"Why not?"
"She's the cheerleader type person and I'm a nerd."
"No, you're not" Dean laughed, "maybe a little, but I'm sure she won't mind. All it takes is one word. H-E-LL-O."
Sam went to get up, but sat down again. "I can't" he said.
"You'll have to eventuality. Might as well be now, right?" Dean shrugged.
"Den, right, Sam" Castiel said, choose his words carefully. Both boys just started at him for a second.
"Yeah, see" Dean turned back to his brother with a smile, "Cas agrees with me."
"What do I say?"
"Hi"
"Ok" this time Sam managed to get out of his seat.
"Hi" he said nervously.
"Oh, hi" said the girl with a smile, "you're in my maths class, right?"
"Ye-s" he said thinking.
"Hi, I'm Jess" she offered him her hand, "you are?"
"Uh- Sam. Sam Winchester" he shock her hand, smiling uncomfortably.
"No the conversation type are you?" Jess wondered putting her book about 'algebra' back on the shelf, losing interest. Sam shock his head, not being able to find the words. "Then why are you talking to me?"
Sam's face looked hurt, "sorry" he said, "I'll go."
"Wait" she grabbed his sleeve, "I didn't tell you to stop talking."
"How do you think it's going?" Dean asked looking down at Castiel. Castiel nodded,
"so, you think it's going good?"
"G-oo-d?" Castiel nodded again.
"Yeah, he looks happy" Dean smiled, "are you?"
"Y-e-ss" Castiel managed to say.
"Good" Dean smirked, sheepishly. Castiel rolled his eyes and kissed Dean. Taking Dean's mouth in his. It was soft, quick and lovely.
"Aw" Jess said.
"That's my brother" Sam mentioned,
"It's sweet, you know, that they don't care what others think"
"Yeah I know. What are you doing at lunch time?"
"Nothing, why?" Jess knew what he was trying to say and she thought it was adorable that he couldn't seem to say it. "I'd love to have lunch with you. I'll meet you in the hall after English?"
"That's great" Sam nodded.
"See you then"
Both Sam and Jess spent the rest of the day smiling.
Dean was nervous to go to Castiel's house after school. Anna opened the door to them this time,
"Micheal's working over time, tonight. Said we should eat without him and he sends his apologizes" Anna allowed them inside and closed the door behind them. "So, how come's I haven't gotten a hug yet?" she asked. "Micheal and Gabriel told me you hugged them. I've been here for you too, where's my hug?"
Castiel sighed and hugged Anna. She smiled, Dean could see tears forming her eyes.
"It's been 7 years since you even touched me" Anna said when they let each other go, "It's good to have you back." Castiel put a hand to her check and wiped away her tears. Dean could feel the emotion. Castiel really did change after his dad did that to him, it was like he was dead. Dean had brought him back to life.
Anna turned to Dean,
"Thank you" she said.
"For what?"
"For finding him." She walked into the kitchen to start cooking dinner.
Castiel led Dean over to the sofa and sat next to Lucifer.
"How was your day Cassie?" Lucifer asked, not taking his eyes from the t.v screen.
"G-oo-d" Castiel, once again, had to think about his words and he looked at Dean for a nod to tell him that he'd said it right. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him.
"You're getting good at that, aren't you?" Gabriel asked from the bath room. "You must be Dean."
"Yeah" Dean held out a hand for him,
"I'm gonna cut to the chase, are you sleeping with my baby brother?"
Dean was lost for words, his eyes flicking from a shock and slightly angry Castiel to a impatient Gabriel.
"Uh - no" Dean stuttered out. 'No. Oh my god. I'd like to, in time but not right now. Castiel had never had a relationship, let alone sex. He won't even let me see him shirtless. Let alone, completely naked.'
"Let's keep it that way. I don't want you to love him then leave him!" Gabriel said sternly pointing a finger at Dean.
"Ga-b-r-al!" Castiel snapped.
"Did you just say my name?" Gabriel was flattered. The first name Castiel ever said was his. Castiel became shy. "Oh my god" Gabriel smiled goofily. He looked down at Dean, "thank you."
"your welcome"
"You don't even know why I'm thanking you."
"You sister gave that speech when I came through the door" Dean said. Castiel layed his head on Deans shoulder.
"I hope everyone's ok eating, Chinese" Anna called from the kitchen.
"What did you do?" Came Ralpheal's voice.
"I burnt the chicken!"
"Chinese is fine" Uriel shouted.
Castiel couldn't use chopsticks properly. For a few minutes of trying Dean laughed Cas who would sigh in frustration. Eventually Castiel put his food aside and gave up.
"Can you go get him a fork?" Dean asked turning to Uriel since he was closest.
"Get it yourself" Uriel snarled.
"I'll get it" Anna got up and stormed into the kitchen. Dean picked Castiel's food up and tried to show him how use then,
"like this" Dean gave him a demonstration, and then feed a few mouthfuls into Castiel's mouth before Anna came in and handed him a fork. Dean showed Castiel how to eat with a fork, twisting the food around on it and them shoving it in Cas's mouth. Castiel looked amazing, closing his lips around the fork and dragging them down, and then swallowing. Dean would be lying if he said he didn't fell a little hot from watching Castiel do that. Cas wasn't helping by closing his eyes as he tilted his head back to swallow.
Castiel walked Dean over to his car,
"I had fun" Dean smiled, Castiel's skin was glowing in the moon light. His hair look so soft, Dean just wanted to run his hands through it. Castiel had his hands, either side of Dean on the Impala. He was just gazing a Dean, smiling. Dean put his hands on Cas's hips and pulled him in closer, to kiss him. Dean's hands moving to play with Castiel's hair. Eyes closed. Lips together. Hands playing. The kiss lasted a good few minutes. The only mistake Dean made was wrapping his hands around Cas's back under his shirt. Castiel pulled back at the feel of Dean's fingers on his scars. He looked sad almost hurt. His eyes fixed on the floor he wiped his mouth. Making his way for the door.
"Cas" Dean called, "Wait - I - I'm sorry. I forgot. I -" Too late. Castiel had shut the door behind him. "Well, bye Cas. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Whats the matter?" Micheal asked walking in after work. "I saw Dean drive away, he looked hurt. -" then he saw Cas on the couch, Gabriel and Anna had their arms on his shoulders. "Whats the matter?"
"They kissed" Gabriel began,
"Nothing they haven't done before" Micheal shrugged.
"Dean put his hand on Castiel's back, under his shirt. Touched his scars. Dean knows Castiel hates them being touched.
"Ok. You guys go to bed, I got this" Micheal sighed putting his bag down.
"Waiting on Cassie hand and foot will not take away the guilt you feel for leaving him alone with Dad that day. You need to talk to someone" Anna sighed getting up.
"Don't look at me, she's right" Gabriel followed her.
Micheal glared at them as they walked away, he took a seat next to Cas on the couch.
"It's ok. He didn't mean to, he was just caught up in the moment" Micheal said, cradling Castiel's head on his shoulder. "Shh."
