Disclaimer: I don't own SPN.

My baby ran so smoothly last night! And the instructor said that I'm ready to drive with my mum now rather than her so I'm jumping for joy!

Also, a very happy 41st birthday to Misha Collins, one of the most amazing, generous, kindest people out there! Seriously, this guy is my role model, my favourite celebrity, and he's the reason I'm slowly coming out of my shell and being myself around other people without caring what they think! This guy has done so much for me and we've never even met, so have an amazing day, Misha! :D

52. Birthday

"Hey, Cas?" Dean said one morning when he and Cas were lying in bed together. "When's your birthday?"

Cas frowned.

"My birthday?" he said slowly.

"Yeah. You know, the day you were born. Humans celebrate it."

"We don't celebrate yours," Cas mumbled. Dean rolled his eyes.

"I don't count. So, when's yours?"

Cas frowned. Dean was beginning to think that he'd said something wrong.

"I don't have a birthday," his angel said slowly. "I was created many millennia ago, before humans even existed to create some form of tracking the date and time. And there are many holes in my memory from…well, you know…"

Dean growled at the thought of Naomi and her screwing with Cas' mind. That bitch had made Cas beat him up and nearly kill him!

"Then just pick a date," Dean said to take his mind off Naomi. "What about Jimmy's?"

Cas shifted uncomfortably.

"I've taken so much from Jimmy," he mumbled. "I would not feel comfortable taking his birthday as well."

Dean nodded and ran his fingers through Cas' hair.

"Just pick a random date, then," he said. Cas fell silent for a minute.

"September 18," he finally decided. "That date is of true significance to me."

"Why?"

"Because it's the date we met." Cas caressed Dean's face, his fingers splayed over Dean's stubble. "The date I raised you from perdition. That is the day I glimpsed your soul and began to fall for you."

Dean blinked in surprise. He stared at Cas for a moment, his green eyes wide, before grinning widely and pressing his lips to Cas'.

"I love it," he declared when he pulled away. In response, Cas smiled and leaned in for another kiss.
