40. Dreams
One of the best parts of Castiel's day was when he could simply lie in bed and watch Dean sleep as he used to when he was an angel. He loved feeling Dean's spiky, dark blond hair tickle his nose as he kissed Dean on the head; loved watching Dean's head loll with his mouth slightly open as he snored softly; and loved listening to Dean's faint murmurs as he dreamed. In fact, this was nearly always how he went to sleep and he loved it. The only time he didn't go to sleep to this was when he was lulled to sleep by the sound of Dean's heartbeat and Dean watched him sleep.
"No…no…" The sound of Dean's whimpers snapped Castiel out of his thoughts and he immediately pulled his stirring human close to him.
"It's okay, Dean," he soothed.
"Stop…don't…Sammy…don't hurt Sammy…" Dean moaned. "Leave him…leave Cas…"
Castiel buried Dean's face in his shoulder.
"You're having a nightmare, Dean," he said. "It's not real. Sam and I are fine."
Dean seemed to calm down in his hold. Castiel was relieved when Dean's breathing evened out and he dropped back into a peaceful sleep. He smiled when his human began to mumble random words as he once again dreamed and this time, Castiel hoped that this dream would stay good.
