193. Present

"What's this for?" Castiel asked, staring down at the small present neatly wrapped in red paper.

"Your birthday," Dean said. "It's today. Don't tell me you forgot?"

As a matter of fact, he had forgotten. But Castiel chose not to tell him that little thing, instead carefully tearing the wrapping paper off to reveal a white box. Dean shifted uncomfortably.

"Wasn't sure if you'd like it," he mumbled. "Rosie helped me pick it. I got a receipt in case you wanna take it back –"

"Dean," Castiel said firmly. "Let me open it first."

He opened the box to reveal a silver, elliptical locket. Inscribed on the front of the locket were a pair of detailed, delicately carved angel wings and his name: Castiel Winchester. Castiel's mouth fell open and he gently opened the locket to reveal a picture of the two of them kissing outside the church that Sam and Rose had gotten married at. The memory of Dean in that suit and just what they'd done after the wedding made Castiel's cheeks begin to heat up.

"It's okay if you don't like it," Dean said quickly, his words stumbling over themselves. "I'll go return it and –"

Scowling, Castiel grabbed Dean's shirt and yanked him in for a rough kiss. Dean immediately kissed back, wrapping his arms around Castiel's neck and running his fingers through Castiel's hair, and it was only a short time before Castiel was on his back, Dean on top of him. Panting, Castiel hooked his legs around Dean's waist to pull him even closer and tugged his head down by the hair to continue kissing him sloppily.

"I love it," he gasped when he pulled away for air. "I love you."

Dean grinned and bent down to kiss Castiel on the forehead.

"Love you too, angel. Wanna keep going?"

Castiel glared at him.

"If you so much as think about stopping…"

Dean rolled his eyes and captured Castiel's lips. Castiel broke the kiss after a moment, finding it hard to even think through his clouded mind.

"Can – can you – put it on for me? I want to wear it when – as you –"

Dean nodded. He fumbled around on the bed for the box and carefully lifted the locket out and Castiel reluctantly sat up so that Dean could clasp it around his neck. That seemed to be the signal to continue because they immediately returned to their previous activity as soon as the clasp was closed.

"I love you, Dean," he forced out, tugging on Dean's hair. Dean growled and attacked his mouth.

"Love you too, Cas. Lemme show ya."

All Castiel could do was nod and let Dean continue to ravish him and shower him with love, grateful once again that he had exchanged his grace for this life.
