Castiel appeared unseen behind Sam in the jewelry store, the young hunter was looking for a gift and the angel was quite curious as to the lucky recipient.
Sam was hunched over a display case of chains and pendants, "Could I see those please?" Marilyn the clerk took out a tray and set it in front of the nervous giant, "What are you looking for exactly?"
Sam ran his fingers over the stones trying to sense the perfect one, "I have someone that's a good friend but…" he exhaled sharply, "but I like him more than a friend, I love him."
She thought he was adorable, so shy and nervous, "Does he know how you feel?"
"No, my brother has a profound bond with him and I feel guilty even looking at this stuff behind his back…its wrong but I can't help how I feel about the guy."
Marilyn picked out a moonstone set in sterling silver; the kid didn't look like he could afford very much and gold was out of his price range, "A moonstone is for a secret love, someone very special."
Sam took it from her and then chose a chain, "Ok I'll take both, do you have something special to put it in?"
"Of course sweetie, hang on."
After the purchase was boxed and rung up Sam tucked the package in his jacket and hoofed it back to the room he and Dean were renting in town while they worked on a case.
He was relieved to see his brother was still out investigating while Sam was supposed to be there researching. He sat on the sagging mattress and took the box out afraid to even look at the necklace.
"Hello Sam."
Sam felt his heart beat wildly in his chest as soon as the angel appeared, "Hi Cas, Dean isn't here."
"I never said I was here for Dean. What is in the box?"
He was sick of hiding his feelings so he thrust the box out toward Castiel, "I bought it for you."
The angel took it from Sam, "Are you sure you want me to open it?"
"Yeah I'm sure."
Castiel opened it up, took the necklace out and slipped it over his head, "its beautiful Sam thank you. What does it mean exactly?"
Sam stood up towering over him, "It's a moonstone for my secret love."
"Why am I a secret?"
"You know why, Dean loves you."
Castiel looked up at his hazel eyed darling, "Dean loves many people but you Sam can only love one being at a time. I love you…does that shock you?"
Sam got a little grin on his face, "Really? Wow I never knew it, I thought…"
Castiel lifted several inches off the ground so he could reach Sam's pretty mouth and then he kissed him, they embraced and the angel whispered, "You can be my first."
Sam's breath was hot against the angel's ear, "I better be your only."
