I just have one piece of advice for y'all. Don't get out of bed. No matter what you hear, or what you see. Promise me you won't get out of bed.

Oh and happy birthday to Samantha Ferris, aka Ellen Harvelle! :D

126. Tears

Upon awakening, one of the most horrible sounds in the world reached Dean's ears: the sound of Cas crying. Cas hardly ever cried but yet here he was, shaking in Dean's arms as he clearly attempted to hold back his tears.

"Cas?" Dean said immediately. "Cas, what's wrong?"

Cas turned over, as though he had been waiting until Dean realised his distress, and he buried his face in Dean's chest, clutching at Dean's dampening shirt. Dean immediately gathered Cas into his arms, holding him even closer.

"Tell me what's wrong!" he said. All Cas did was shake his head and snuggle into Dean even more. Knowing that he wouldn't get an answer out of him at the moment, Dean just pressed a kiss to his head, inhaling the scent of his angel's hair, and held Cas tighter, not caring that Cas' dark strands were tickling his nose. He'd ask Cas what was wrong later. For now, all he could do was hold him.
