The next time Dean was able to see Cas he took him to a park in the middle of the small town. He bought them both milkshakes and he showed Cas how to skip rocks across a pond. Cas seemed to enjoy it, although some of his smiles were forced. 

Dean sensed that something Cas would get sad, and he would try to cheer him up, but it didn't always work. Sometimes Castiel's smile wouldn't quite reach his eyes, and when it did sometimes his eye would crinkle at the edges but the color of his eyes gave him away. Dean had noticed that Castiel's eyes were a very vibrant blue when he was happy but when they were sad they were a very deep blue color. 

"Hey, Cas, I bet I can get you to laugh just by telling you stupid jokes."

"Try me, Dean I bet your jokes all suck anyway."

Dean took this as a challenge and he quickly thought up every joke Sam had ever told him, thankful that Sammy had a fixation with getting Dean to laugh. 

"Hey Cas, what do prison guards use to prevent break outs?"

"I don't know, what?"

"Proactive."

Castiel just looked at Dean, mastering the ability to control his laughter. This is gonna be harder than I thought.

"What do you call someone with no body and a nose?"

"Hmm?"

"Nobody Nose."

Cas's facade cracked a bit and he almost laughed. Almost. 

"What did the blanket say when it fell off the bed?"

"What did it say, Dean?"

"Oh sheet."

"How do you know these?"

"My brother, no shut up I'm gonna make you laugh. Now, how do you make holy water?"

"How?"

"You take regular water and boil the hell out of it."

Cas lost it. He laughed, an actual laugh. Not a fake laugh but an actual laugh, one that reached his eyes and sparked up that beautiful blue color. 

"Hey, Dean. What's it called when Spiderman climbs a building?"

"I dunno what?"

"Peter Parkour."

They both burst into fits of laughter and continued telling jokes, back and forth. They continued this until Dean announced he had the winning joke. 

"Okay, okay I've got the winner."

"I'm sure mine is better."

"What did the brother cell say to his sister when she stepped on his toe?"

"What?"

"Mitosis."

"Oh my god, Dean that's not even funny it's just stupid." Cas said this and laughed, "But mine's better."

"Shoot."

"What's the difference between a lobster with breast implants and a dirty bus station?"

"I dunno, Cas tell me."

"One's a busty crustacean and the other is a crusty bus station."

"Jesus, Cas, okay you win.... For now."

They laughed for a bit before Dean realized he had to take Cas home. Once in his car he turned on the radio and the song Pour Some Sugar On Me drifted from the speakers, "Hey, Dean is this the music you listen to?"

"Not always, but I do prefer classic rock. If you don't like it you can walk your ass home," Dean said, joking. Cas laughed before looking through the cassettes in Dean's car. 

"Let's listen to this it's got my favorite song by them on it."

Cas pushed a cassette into the car and soon Led Zepplin was drifting from the speakers and Cas was singing along quietly to Immigrant Song. 

"I love this song." Dean said and looked to Cas, who had lost himself completely in the music. 

"It's my favorite Led Zepplin song, Dean don't ruin it."

Dean let out a small laugh, "Have you never heard Stairway To Heaven?"

"No but if you shut up I will it's on this cassettes. This is a mix of all their most famous songs."

Dean drove quietly out to Castiel's house and they sat in his driveway, just listening to the music coming from the speakers. 

Dean looked over to Cas, who was absorbed in the song. He watched Cas sit with his eyes closed, just simply enjoying the music before he looked to Dean. And in that instant Dean froze, locked in place by a bright blue stare. Dean's green eyes watch Castiel's blue ones. Dean stared at the intense color and they both leaned in slightly, their lips now mere inches apart. Dean noticed that up close Cas's eyes were not one simple shade of blue, but rather a million different shades that all mixed together to create the most beautiful eyes Dean had ever seen. 

They jumped apart when a lough banging came from behind Dean. He turned and saw Gabriel staring from outside his window. 

"I guess I better get inside. Talk to you later?"

"Y-yeah. Bye, Cas."

"Bye, Dean."

Dean ran a hand through his hair and Cas got out of the car, saying something to Gabriel the looked a lot like, "You did that on purpose didn't you."

Gabriel just smirked and the two walked inside. Dean left their house and returned to his crappy motel, deciding that he better text Charlie that he almost kissed Cas, otherwise god knows what she would do if she ever found out on her own. He pulled up her contact, which he had changed back, and texted her.

Dean: Hey Charles, I thought maybe you might wanna know something.

Charlie: Heya Dean, what do you need to tell me?

Dean: That I almost kissed him. 

Dean attached an image of Castiel, one that was rather hot, that Gabriel had sent him and sent it to Charlie.

Charlie: DUDEYOUGODEANIKNOWYOUJUSTCAMEOUTTOMEBUTISHIPITHARDCOREYOUREGONNAHAVETHECUTESTBABIESOHMYGOD

Charlie: Sorry, got a little excited there. If I wasn't a total lesbian I would bang your boyfriend right here right now. Also, in order for that to work he would also have to be straight.

Dean: He's not my boyfriend.

Charlie: Bullshit. And if you're telling the truth ask him out, now.

Dean: Charlie no.

Charlie: Charlie yes. Peace out, bitch I've got a date to be at.

Dean laughed to himself and thought over what Charlie had said. Should he ask out Cas?
