    Summary

    “Mmmmmm. Cas.” Dean releases a sleepy little sigh and pats Castiel on the cheek. “Love you.”

    Castiel freezes, eyes going wide. He waits for Dean to say he’s just kidding, or to say he loves him like a brother, but the freckled man just keeps grinning at him like a goofy idiot. The nurse is giving them one of those ‘awww so adorable’ looks, probably assuming they’re a couple.

    Figuring Dean probably won’t even remember saying it, Castiel tries to pretend it never happened. He goes through the last minute details with the nurse, picks up Dean’s pain meds from the in-hospital pharmacy, and wheels Dean out to the car. Dean doesn’t grumble at him about driving the impala, and he doesn’t complain about the coffee house radio station Castiel puts on the radio, so Castiel knows he really is out of it.

    Still… a part of him clings to the hope that Dean meant it. That maybe he had some life-altering moment of revelation during his surgery and realized he loves Castiel.

     

    - or the one where Dean won't stop confessing his love, and things get dangerous as Castiel tries to function as a capable adult despite this

    Summary

    (For Suptober20. Day 6 Prompt: Mask.)


    “Forgive me.” The robes fluttered then a hand appeared, holding a rune-engraved knife. It glowed faintly with angelic power. “But, in order to be reborn--in order to regain my body-- I need the blood of the angel who has earned the love of a human.”
    [...]
    "You must be mistaken,” Castiel said, the words raw and ragged as he watched his blood fall, “he doesn’t love me back.”

    Summary

    Everything Castiel is, everything he’s made of, is hitched to a thin golden string attached to Dean Winchester’s soul, tugging him closer, begging him to let them collide.

    He recalls Aristophanes’ story of creation; the one in which humans were split in two as a divine punishment, forever in search of their other half.

    Cas is not human, but he understands the sentiment.

    _____

     
    In which Dean is finally in a world without impending catastrophe, but it's also a world without Cas. He spends all day fighting not to think about it, and at night, his sleep is haunted by grief.

    But then his dreams start to feel more and more real, and no grave can hold Cas down.
