Thanks to mollienaturerocks, masterjediratgrl31, Bipi and noxsoulmate for your reviews! :) In fact, this chapter was prompted by masterjediratgrl31, who is now addicted to this band thanks to me! :D
57. Song
Castiel frowned as he browsed YouTube in search of another song to listen to. Ever since Dean had introduced him to this video website, he had become addicted to sitting for hours and playing every song he could get his hands on. He generally liked all of the songs he listened to but found himself grimacing whenever he listened to a man called Justin Bieber. For some reason, that voice just didn't appeal to him!
Finding another song that looked appealing, Castiel clicked on the link and waited for the song to load. The soft tune immediately put him at ease and he settled down to listen.
"I keep staring at your door from down the hallway, tonight I couldn't make it to the moon…"
Castiel frowned. This song sounded sad! He kept listening, though, unable to stop.
"Wishing it was me instead of you, it gets harder every day but I keep on holding on. There's an angel looking out for me because I ain't well, though I try to be…"
Castiel's head was tilted. Why did such a beautiful song have to be so sad?
"I need my angel like Heaven needs another set of wings."
Blinking back tears, Castiel forced himself to keep listening. Why could he hear his relationship with Dean in every line? He knew that if something was to happen to Dean, this was exactly how he'd be feeling!
Before he knew it, the song had finished. Castiel clicked on the button to repeat the video and then closed his eyes and let the lyrics wash over him, easily able to imagine that this was Dean talking to him.
"I need my angel like Heaven needs another set of wings."
Did Dean need him like this person needed their angel?
After two more replays, Castiel couldn't take it anymore. He closed the laptop and hurried off in search of Dean before he broke down and started crying, which would be embarrassing. He used to be an angel, a warrior; he never cried!
"Cas?" Dean said when Castiel entered their bedroom. "What's –?"
Before he could finish, Castiel leapt at him and pressed a furious kiss to his lips, trying to pour every little bit of his love for Dean into it. When he had left Dean stunned, his green eyes glazed, Castiel sank down on the bed next to Dean and snuggled into his side.
"Dean?" he said quietly. "Do you need me ? Do you need me like Heaven needs another set of wings?"
"What?" Dean blinked. "Uh – yeah. I need you, Cas. You know that."
Castiel smiled, knowing that from Dean that was the equivalent of an 'I love you', and hugged his human tighter. So long as Dean needed him, that was all that mattered!
