Thanks everyone for sticking with this. I'm still working through the next two chapters with a very long Dean/Jo one coming up in the next day or so. Stay Tuned!


Crazy For You –Madonna

Trying hard to control my heart
I walk over to where you are
Eye to eye we need no words at allSlowly now we begin to move
Every breath I'm deeper into you
Soon we two are standing still in time
If you read my mind, you'll see

I'm crazy for you
Touch me once and you'll know it's true
I never wanted anyone like this
It's all brand new, you'll feel it in my kiss
I'm crazy for you, crazy for you

Dani was getting ready to hit the grocery store for her weekly shopping trip, when she heard a knock on her door. Answering it, she was surprised to find Castiel, looking adorable on the other side. His big blue eyes calm, his hair tousled and half a day's growth of beard. His white button down shirt had the top couple of buttons undone exposing his smooth skin. It was more of his chest than she'd seen in a while.

"Cas, hey, come in." she said as she found her voice after dragging her eyes to meet his.

"Thanks," he replied smiling carrying something under his arm.

"What are you doing here so early?" she asked as she followed him into the living room.

He looked a bit uncomfortable but he managed a weak "I'm actually on my way to meet Meg at the museum."

Dani raised her eyebrow's as she nodded "Oh..that sounds like a lot of fun."

He smiled a bit at her reply.

"So what are you doing here?" she asked curious.

He seemed to remember that he was carrying something and offered it out to her. "I was walking through the bookstore the other day and I found this."

Dani looked surprised as she took the book. It was book on Celtic mythology. "Oh my gosh, Cas, this is…great…thank you so much."

Castiel blushed a bit, something Dani had never seen before "It was nothing, really."

"Of course it's something. You went into a bookstore and found this?" she gushed, running her hand through her dark hair. "For me?"

"Of course for you..I wanted to…I mean…I thought.." he stammered a bit before finishing "I figured you'd like a book better than anything else."

"But you didn't have to get me anything." She felt her heart swell a little in her chest. He'd bought her a book on Celt myths not because he liked them but because she did.

"Look at this one," he said and pulled the book out of her hands. He turned to a chart of symbols and pointed at the one that looked like the one on her bracelet. "This explains everything, almost every symbol really."

Dani glanced down at the page and then back up into Castiel's deep blue sea eyes. Her swelling heart ached and she felt like she was diving into an ocean way bigger than she. Bigger than her ability to stop it. Without thinking, she wrapped her arms around his neck. "I love it. Thank you." She closed her eyes and breathed in the scent of his skin. I love you.

Castiel went with what he was feeling in that moment, like Dean would do and threw the book and caution to the wind. He turned his face into the smooth skin of her neck. "You're welcome." He ran his hands up and down her spine and lowered his mouth down to hers. Dani could hardly believe that he was kissing her but she poured every ounce of affection she had for him into the kiss.

She never knew how long it lasted, maybe a few seconds, maybe a few minutes. When he pulled away softly, continuing to place soft kisses on her lips, his blue eyes were searching hers intently. Finally he leaned his forehead against hers.

"You don't know how long I've wanted to do that," he said quietly.

She smiled at him "You don't know how long I've been wanting for you to do that."

"Even though I'm not wearing eyeliner?" he asked seriously.

"Eyeliner?" she asked confused but she quickly caught on. "Ah yes, Ryan. You know his eyeliner is well applied."

He chuckled softly, his warm breath spread across her face. "That it is," he agreed as he leaned in to kiss her again.
