Thanks for the alerts and special thanks to the following chickadees, who reviewed the last chapter: Larkafree, Guest, Loubee1977, NightAngel97, Madclifton, Snowin' You and EllaMichelle. Y'all are getting Castiel's cock sock. You're gonna have to set a schedule on which day each of you has custody of it. LOL

Castiel banged the door to his trailer so freaking hard he was shocked it didn't hang from its hinges. The actor tossed himself on a beat up couch and placed his head in between his knees. Cas breathed in deeply and closed his eyes. For ten years he tried his hardest to forget about Dean "the man whore" Winchester. He finally managed to almost erase him completely from his memory three years ago. Cas was doing a damn fine job but destiny was a fickle bitch. Why did it throw Dean back into his life?

Cas had gotten used to being nude on set but of course things had to turn ugly for him. The first time Dean jacked him off popped in his head and he ended up masturbating in front of a group of strangers! Sam and Chuck, his old friends witnessed him slapping the salami. Castiel was mortified. A vision of a chubby/innocent four year old Sammy with his mushroom haircut swam before his eyes. Oh God! This was all fucking Dean's fault!

Fortunately, he was not scheduled to film another scene until midday tomorrow. Castiel yanked the cock sock from his dick and tossed it inside the wastebasket. He rummaged through his black Adidas gym bag and retrieved clothes. Five minutes later, he sat at the small table nursing a bottle of Corona. Someone rapped their knuckles to the tune of "I Touch Myself" on the door.

"Fuck off, Gabriel!"

"Cassie, open up. I'm going to sit on these steps until you open the freaking door!" Cas heard his cousin plop his ass on the top step. He counted to ten before opening the door.

"Oh Cassie Bear, I heard what happened. I can't believe I missed the free peep show." Gabe placed a plate of BBQ chicken pizza on the table. "Eat it before it gets cold. I know you've been functioning on an empty stomach." He shoved his cousin on a chair.

Gabriel scowled. "Eat this instance or I'm calling Aunt Rachel." He crossed his arms.

"You wouldn't dare! I don't want that termagant to find out about what happened today." Cas stuffed most of the pizza in his mouth and chewed it slowly. Gabriel opened another Corona bottle for his cousin.

"I admire you for your dedication. You're a kick ass method actor. So what? You jacked your anaconda for real. People in the industry know you're dedicated to your craft. I wouldn't sweat it if I were you."

Castiel washed down the pizza with half of the Corona. He wiped his mouth before speaking. "You're right. Barbara wanted sex in the pilot. She got her wish."

"Are we still on for the gallery opening? Cas you can't chicken out now."

"I already asked Jax to accompany me."

Gabriel wiggled his eyebrows. "Hmmm you're taking some delicious eye candy, you lucky bastard. Were you thinking about that particular hunk, when you became the jizz meister?" Gabe bumped his shoulder with Cas'.

"Gross much, dude…I'm not telling you who I was thinking about!" Castiel got up and grabbed his gym bag. "I'm going home and work on my latest art piece. It will help me unwind. Do you need a ride?"

"Nah thanks, Cassie. Chuck is dropping me off and he's also driving me to the gallery." Gabriel waved bye to Cas before disappearing out the door.

Castiel mixed several colors together to create a perfect night sky. He brushed gentle strokes against the canvas. This particular art project was of a meteor shower falling upon a field of wildflowers. As he concentrated more on his painting, the tension on his shoulders and upper back started dissipating. Castiel gazed at his watch and realized he only had half an hour before Jax came to pick him up.

Jax and Castiel entered Shameless Art Gallery which was holding its grand inauguration that evening. The gallery was located in Downtown LA. The two men wore similar outfits: dark jeans, dress boots, V-necks and casual jackets. The two of them had laughed upon seeing each other for the first time that evening. They were greeted by Kali Japur, the gallery's owner. "Welcome, gentlemen. I'm so glad you could make it, Castiel." She kissed both men on each cheek. "I am still expecting one of your paintings."

"I'm thinking about it, Kali."

"Don't take too long." She smiled and winked at Jax as she went to welcome a couple of newcomers.

The gallery was simple with one section having maroon walls and the other part was the color of the inside of a seashell. A waiter passed by offering them champagne. Jax grabbed two flutes and handed one to Castiel. "I didn't know you painted." He drank all of his champagne.

"Yeah, it's a hobby and helps me unwind." Castiel gulped down his drink.

"I'd like to see it some time." Jax placed one of his giant hands over the shorter man's shoulder.

"The only person, who's ever seen my art, is Gabriel. I'm very private, when it comes to my paintings." Castiel handed his empty flute to a waiter. He placed his hands inside his jeans' pockets.

"Hey no problem…I understand."

Castiel observed Gabriel and Chuck entering through the back entrance. He furrowed his dark brows. His cousin introduced Chuck to Kali and whispered something in the tall/slender woman's ear. What the hell was Gabe up to? Gabriel's bright golden eyes landed on his cousin. "Cassie, you made it!"

He led Chuck across the room. "OMG the two of you are so adorable dressing alike already!" Gabe lowered Jax's head so he could give him a smooch on the cheek and lightly spanked Castiel's ass. "The two of you need to go and model for Armani." He gazed around the large room. "Ooh Chucky let's go see those penis sculptures. They're so lifelike!"

"Hello my delicious blueberry scones," Balthazar stated as he stood next to the duo. He shook hands with Castiel and Jax.

"Hey gorgeous. I bet you heard what happened today." Castiel said as he rolled his eyes.

"Oh that…I always knew you were a regular Daniel Day Lewis. Such dedication," Balthy said as he placed a hand over his heart. "Barbara asked to see the dailies and I heard afterwards she got a hot flash. Sounds like it was a massive success; no pun intended." He winked at Castiel.

Jax excused himself and Castiel. He held Cas' hand and led him to a corner. "Your hair is sticking up all over the place; must be the fucking humidity." He ran his fingers through the disheveled dark locks.

"Dean Winchester, are my eyes playing tricks on me or are you setting foot in an art gallery? Your idea of culture is making collages from Busty Asian Beauties centerfolds." Balthazar bellowed across the room.

Castiel's entire body tensed as soon as he heard Zar mention Dean's name. Jax stepped away from him. Dean was drying his wet hair with paper towels Kali had secured for him and Benny. Rain started to fall as soon as the two men exited the Impala. The first thing Dean noticed when he entered the gallery was Jax petting Castiel's hair. He gritted his teeth.

Benny greeted Balthazar. "I dragged this idiot here. He didn't have any plans for tonight so I invited him along."

"Jax and Cassie come and join us," Zar said. He moved to the side to make room for the two other men. The two of them said hi to Benny. Jax nodded at Dean.

"So what the two of you are one of those annoying couples that dress the same now?" Dean asked.

"It was just a coincidence," Jax replied.

Dean arched a tawny brow. So neither the supermodel bastard nor Crapstiel denied they were a couple. He directed the conversation to Castiel now. "I heard about you auditioning the finger puppets earlier today and in public. You kinky bastard…I had no idea you would pull a Pee Wee Herman."

"Since your last acting jobs were posing for trashy romance novels and Pterodactyl Wars I can't blame you for forgetting about dedication to one's craft." Castiel smiled innocently.

Dean turned red as a lobster and scowled at the smug bastard. "There's a difference between porn and real acting. I think you confused both of them."

Castiel was in the middle of opening his mouth, when Jax grabbed him by the elbow. "I want to show you an abstract painting that I know you'll like."

Balthazar pinched the bridge of his nose. "The two of you better be on your best behavior this Friday."

"Why? What's going on Friday?" Dean didn't like where this was going.

"The first publicity photo shoot will take place on Friday. The two of you and Erick will be posing for magazine and billboard ads. The show premieres in five months so we need to start publicizing it."

"Better put Crapstiel on a leash." Dean joked.

Sam appeared. "Hey guys! This place is awesome. Kali's done a great job." He barely looked at Balthazar. The quartet spoke about the rough season the Lakers were having. Dean's hazel eyes which were emerald at the moment due to the forest green buttoned up shirt he donned landed on Castiel and Jax. Cas slid an arm across the taller man's hips. His hand lowered until Castiel tucked it inside Jax's back pocket.

"Hello, earth to Dean!" Benny waved his hand across his fellow actor's face.

"Sorry, man…you were saying?"

"You want to hit the bar and get a beer?"

"Yeah definitely…lead the way."

Castiel's gaze searched for Dean across the gallery. He found the dick standing really close to Benny at the bar. Dean's right hand covered Benny's shoulder possessively as he heard the Cajun say something funny. Dean threw his head back and moved closer as he laughed.

"Uhm, brother…what is up with you this evening? You're not being yourself." Benny frowned at his new friend.

"I don't know what you mean." Dean drank from a Heineken bottle.

"You're touchy feely all of a sudden and are laughing at everything I say. What the hell is going on?"

"Nothing man…just having a good time."

"Is there something going on between you and Castiel?"

"Hell no! I would rather shave my legs, put on a wig and sing My Heart Will Go On at a karaoke club." Dean blushed. Fuck he needed to chill for the remainder of the night. Benny was a smart motherfucker.

Kali captured the two hundred guests' attention. She smoothed her hands over her black leather strapless dress. "I want to thank all of you for coming tonight. The gallery opening is a complete success and it's all thanks to all of you." Everyone applauded.

She rubbed her hands together and grinned. "I have a special surprise tonight. A dear friend of mine, Castiel Milton had a change of heart and donated one of his paintings to the gallery. His cousin Gabriel brought the gorgeous piece over."

Cas was beyond flabbergasted. He eyed his surroundings until he found his soon to be dead cousin. How dare the little man go behind his back and bring one of his paintings so it could be shown to the public?!

Kali unveiled the painting and all the guests applauded enthusiastically. Castiel covered his face with his hands. He never wanted to remove them. "That's a beautiful painting, Cas. I had no idea you were so talented." Jax gently removed his hands from his face.

Many of the art patrons congratulated Castiel, who remained silent for the next fifteen minutes. He was having difficulty breathing and ran outside under the rain. "Cassie, come back inside. You're going to catch pneumonia!"

"Gabe, you're the last person I want to see right now! How could you do this to me?" Castiel turned around and wiped rain from his face.

Gabe winced. He hadn't seen Castiel this pissed in a long time. "I wanted to surprise you. Cassie you're so talented. I want the world to see your art. It's not fair you hide your paintings in the studio."

"Why did you have to choose that particular one?" Castiel stopped himself before he hurt Gabriel's feelings. "I don't want to see you, Gabe. Please go away."

Jax appeared with a large black umbrella. "I'll take you home." He covered Castiel's drenched form with the umbrella as they walked to the parking garage. Gabriel nervously bit his lower lip. Cas was livid with him.

Dean stood in front of the painting and couldn't believe his eyes. Castiel painted the silhouette of two nude male lovers with their bodies intertwined over rumpled sheets in the afterglow of sex. Moonlight illuminated through a window covered with cascading raindrops. He swallowed hard. Dean's eyes never left Castiel since Kali announced he'd donated one of his paintings to the gallery. It was obvious to anyone present that Gabriel was the one, who brought the painting and hadn't said a word to his cousin about it.

Kali approached Dean. "It's such an intimate piece of art."

"How much do you want for it?" Dean inquired.

Kali narrowed her dark brown eyes at him. "Are you serious?"

"As a heart attack" He licked his lips.

"Step into my office and we'll negotiate."

Castiel didn't invite Jax inside. He was in a foul mood and desired to be left alone. First thing tomorrow morning he was going to Ace Hardware to buy a new lock for his studio's door. Sneaky Gabriel was barred from entering it from now on. Castiel's cheeks burned as he sat on the studio's windowsill. Dean could be dense at times but he wasn't stupid. He'd know exactly what the painting was about. Cas touched the cool window with his forehead. He traced the falling raindrops with his forefinger. Castiel closed his eyes.

Ten Years Ago…

Dean dragged Castiel inside his new apartment. Earlier in the evening, the two of them shared with their families a dinner which celebrated the end of Boy Robot and their attaining high school diplomas. John presented his oldest offspring with the Impala and his treasured leather jacket. Dean was over the moon. Plus he was now renting his own apartment. Also, he was in the lead for the role of Che Guevara in the revival of Evita on Broadway. Castiel had been helping him with the vocal parts. Life couldn't get better.

Castiel informed his mother after the meal that he planned on moving permanently to Los Angeles with his cousin, Gabriel. They fought for over half an hour but the overwhelming woman finally gave in. Rachel said she would talk to Gabriel so he could take care of her little boy.

Dean shoved Castiel against the door and sucked the side of his boyfriend's neck. He bit hard leaving a bruise on the pale skin. "I've been dying to take a bite out of ma petite pomme all night long." Dean brushed his tongue across the purple love bite.

Castiel arched his neck back granting Dean more space to do as he pleased. His hands cupped Dean's hard ass. He rubbed his erection against Dean's groin. Dean chuckled. "Someone is in a feisty mood tonight. I like it."

His mouth covered Castiel's pink plump lips. Castiel sucked Dean's tongue. The taller eighteen year old humped his boyfriend. Their kiss intensified. Teeth clacked and Castiel carded his fingers harshly through Dean's short hair. The blue eyed teen bit Dean's lower lip and nibbled it until he had Dean panting.

"I want to make love to you tonight, babe," Castiel said into Dean's mouth.

"Are you sure?" Dean asked before swallowing hard. He'd been waiting for this moment for four years. Cas had no idea how much Dean wanted him. Jacking off and grope fests weren't enough for him.

"I want you so bad, Dean. You have no idea." Cas' eyes had turned ebony.

"I think I have an idea."

Cas enveloped his legs around Dean's waist. His hands held to the back of the tawny haired boy's neck as his lips branded Dean's one more time. Dean led them to a recliner that stood by the window. On their way there, Castiel had discarded his Polo shirt and did the same with Dean's shirt. The teens divested of their remaining clothing in record time.

Cas grabbed a small container of KY Jelly from his jeans before straddling Dean's lap on the recliner. Dean was jacking off already. Castiel covered the older teen's hand and stroked harder and faster. Cas licked the outer shell of Dean's right ear. He whispered, "I love you so much it fucking hurts."

Dean cupped Castiel's face and kissed him hard on the mouth. "Not as much as I love you." They kissed until they needed to break for needed breath.

"Cas, I don't want to sound like a total wuss but would you mind bottoming? Dude, Mr. Ed has nothing on you. You're fucking huge!" Dean licked his lips tasting Castiel on them.

The other boy laughed. "I was planning to anyways." Castiel squirted lube on his own fingers. He entered two inside his puckered hole and started pleasuring himself. "You have no idea how many times I did this imagining how it would feel to have you inside me."

Dean stroked himself more. Watching Castiel become completely undone was his downfall. He came at the sound of Cas calling out his name. Dean smeared cum all over his cock. He held on tight to Castiel's tapered waist. Cas touched Dean's erection and guided it to his entrance. "Promise me you'll tell me if I hurt you."

Castiel kissed him gently and nodded. "I know you'd never hurt me intentionally." Dean pulled Cas closer to his flushed body. His fingers dug into Castiel's beautiful hipbones. Castiel was so fucking hot and tight. Dean was scared he'd cause him physical pain. He was battling himself not to thrust his dick completely within Cas' warmth.

"Dean, can you fucking hurry up!" Cas rose up and then lowered himself; bringing Dean a little deeper. He encircled his legs tight around Dean's hips which started thrusting harder into him. Cas groaned. "That's more like it, cowboy."

Dean lost it when Castiel's hole clenched around his throbbing dick. His hands slid down Cas' perspiring body. Castiel's screams were getting him harder if it was possible. One of Dean's hands clung possessively to Cas' hip. The other covered the other teen's shaft and stroked it. "I'm almost there, Dean!"

Dean thrust deeper into Castiel as rain pounded against the window. The recliner tipped backwards. This didn't faze the lovers. Soon Dean came inside Castiel. The dark haired teen bit Dean's clavicle as he climaxed. His jizz adorned his and Dean's chests. Their hearts beat erratically. Castiel and Dean laughed, when the two of them realized the recliner had fallen.

Dean dragged Castiel to the couch. Cas covered Dean's sweaty form. His eyes remained transfixed on the falling rain. Dean kissed his forehead tenderly. He traced symbols across Castiel's back. "Cas, I was wondering if you wanted to move in with me."

Castiel's electric blue eyes stared into his hazel orbs. "You mean it?" Dean nodded. "This means the world will soon find out about our relationship."

"I'm ready if you are. Aren't you tired of hiding what we truly are to each other?" Dean nervously licked his lips.

"Yes, I am. How about next weekend?"

Dean smiled. "Sounds great, ma petite pomme; I love you so much it scares me."

Castiel kissed him longingly. "There's nothing to be scared of. We're going to be together always.."

"And forever," Dean finished.

Next chapter will have the flashback which illustrates when and how the shit hit the fan for Destiel. Thanks for reading!
