    Summary

    Admitting it won’t make Dean any more inconsolable than he already is, and he’ll never feel Cas’ absence any more or any less acutely than he does in this exact moment. “He’s gone,” Dean finally admits, because it seems like the only thing left to say.

    When the terrible, swollen vacancy of the room offers no recourse, Sam says, “I know.”

    Summary

    “I wish I could stand,” Cas says.

    “Yeah,” Dean says.

    Cas holds up his hand, flexes it, stares and then drops it.

    “This weakness is unsettling. I can’t—I can’t even hold a pitcher of water, Dean.”

    Dean makes a small sound in his throat, a non-committal hum.

    He’s done soaping up Cas’ hair. He grabs the sponge at his side and starts to scrub at Cas’ skin, up along his arms, his neck, down his chest. When he runs it up his legs, to his thighs, Cas shudders and then there’s a hand cupping Dean’s cheek, cold and dripping water and soap, and Dean falters, looks at him for the first time.

    “Will you sleep with me?” Cas says. “Tonight?”

    Dean swallows.

    He says yes.

    After Lucifer's possession, Castiel stops talking.

    Summary

    Quickly and clumsily, Dean pries off his boots and top layer. He climbs up to the head of the bed, and as he stretches, the back of his undershirt rides up. Skin pulls taught over sore muscles. There is a warm buzzing under Castiel's skin that he doesn't quite recognize. His fingers twitch, the sensation just out of reach.

    Oh, he realizes. This is desire.

    - + -

    After losing his brother in the showdown at Stull Cemetery, Dean has gone into self-imposed exile. He's plagued by insomnia, and the only way he seems to get any sleep at all is when Castiel puts him out with a single touch. When this still doesn't prove enough to bring Dean any real relief from his grief and sleeplessness, Castiel wonders if what Dean really needs is another type of comfort altogether.

    Summary

    So, the first thing that happens is Castiel comes back.

    ~~~

    "Right," Dean says eventually, gruffly. He looks down at his shoes. "I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, man. It's—you know, yours. Do your thing, love who you love, whatever. I can't really stop you from loving me, if that's what you've decided to do, but I don't—I can't—"

    "I know," Castiel murmurs, still just smiling a little, not looking heartbroken at all. "Don't worry about it, Dean, that's all I ask."

    "So we're—" Dean risks a glance up, swallowing thickly. "We're good?"

    Castiel hums. "We're good."
