Disclaimer: I don't own SPN.
I've recently become an asexual Cas fan so a few fics with that may crop up from me. But I also believe that he is panromantic, or at least demiromantic, so he can still feel a deep romantic attachment to Dean without being sexually attracted (though I still also support pansexual or demisexual Cas, or else I wouldn't be writing this and the smutty Moments and so on!).

110. Pain
Sometimes, being human sucked! How was it fair that, when Cas was doubled over in pain from a terrible stomach ache, all Dean could do was run around and keep heating up the heat pack and bringing him warm drinks and just fuss over him?
"Dean," Cas groaned, hugging his stomach weakly. "Sit down and rest. You've been caring for me since this morning."
"You're family, Cas! It's my job!" Dean snapped. "I gotta look after you!"
Cas smiled, though it soon twisted in pain.
"I think that this heat pack requires further heating," he said. "I hate to ask, Dean but could you –?"
"Sure! Of course!" Dean grabbed the pack and sprinted from the room. The pack was still plenty warm but Dean suspected that Cas recognised that he had to feel helpful and a wave of warm affection for his angel washed over him. He'd taken care of sick Sammy plenty of times throughout his life! He was going to take care of Cas and make sure that he recovered fully because dammit, that was Dean's job!
