Castiel and Dean have been dating for almost two months when he finally asked Sam "is Dean deaf?"
"Uh. What?"
"I'm aware that he looks at people's mouths when they talk and his music is always extremely loud. Is he deaf, or near it?"
"Yeah.. Has been since we were teens. He's not completely but really close.
Dad, he never cared about things like hearing safety." Sam spoke softly "that's why he's so loud"The Angel cocked his head "I will heal him now" and turned when his arm was grabbed "no! If you fix it without him knowing.. Humans don't like change. This is something you have to talk about"
"Oh thank you Sam. How is your hearing?"
"Mines good, thanks for asking though"
(._.) ( l: ) ( .-. ) ( :l ) (._.) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That night as Dean and the angel went to bed he ran his hands through the hunter's hair "Dean?"
"Yeah babe?"
"Look at me please"
As he did as he was told Castiel softly smiled. "I'm sorry I did not heal you completely. I was not aware there was anything wrong"
"Uh Cas?"
"You read my lips" at those words Dean stiffened, tearing his eyes away from Castiel's mouth "you have a sexy mouth"
A few seconds later he heard Castiel's voice in his ear "no. I messed up and left you without proper hearing"
"Ca-Cas...."
"May I fix your hearing? And to make this clear to your amazing self... I am not doing this out of pity. Nor am I doing this because you are "handicapped" you are perfect, I just know something you would enjoy and I want to do. Will you let me?"
"I don't want to use you."
"Shut up Dean, You are young and you deserve this. Plus its not "using" if I offered first."
Dean went silent and looked away "I'm not broken. I can hear you just fine when we're close. Its only like if you're in the other room and spoke normally I wouldn't hear you. I'm not damaged"
"Did I ever say you were? No. You're 36. You should have better hearing. You are not damaged. You are not broken. You are Dean and I love you. If you want me to never bring this up I won't"
The angel switched out the light, and wriggled closer to Dean "I will always love you.""Oh god Cas. I should be jumping at this opportunity... But I'm- I've been this way since I was 17"
"We can always do it in increments. Little bits at a time"
"I promise i will love you no matter what you want"
"Let me sleep on it. I mean this was caused by being a stupid child, not a hunt."
"alright In the morning we will discuss it if you wish. I love you"
"love you too" secretly Dean was wondering why Castiel kept saying how much he loved him but figured it was because of how much he was refusing help
The next morning Dean groaned and rolled over into a warm body "Morning Cas" he said, voice thick with sleep
"Good morning, love" Castiel replied making the hunter blush "I should have never taught you pet names"The angel just smiled and pulled Dean closer "whoa, hey I have morning breath"
"I don't care. I want to kiss you all the time"
"Oh. Don't we have this conversation every morning?""Yes, and you always let me because you want to kiss me too"
"Smug bastard" Dean huffed but gave in, pressing his slightly upturned lips into his boyfriends.
"Dean. I am anything but a smug 'bastard'"
"Mkay" but he kissed Castiel again before rolling back over and sitting up
"Why though? You didn't have to ask if you wanted me better you could have just done it.. I know I'm not good-""Dean it's too early in the morning for you to feel this way. Come back here I apparently need to work harder."
The angel sighed, simply dragging Dean back to the center of the bed "you are going to lie here and let me love you. Because you deserve every word of praise to be spoken and showed to you."Dean blushed and looked away "OK fine you can fix my hearing"
That made Castiel pause "this has nothing to do with that. Even if I do heal you I will still shower you with your much needed praise"
"Damnit Cas, I'm fine" be wiped angrily at his face- damn tears betraying him.
Castiel just kissed his throat, then this jaw, then his cheek "no I want to do this. I love you. I chose you"
Still stiff, Dean began to relax "i'm sorry I can't do this right"
"No you're doing it perfectly fine. I love everything about you" Castiel murmured, pecking his lips, straddling Dean's legs "I love everything about you. You are kind, protective, beautiful, and without flaw.. You are righteous."
One hand held the angel up while the other ran down the hunter's side, down to his hip "even the things you dislike physically are gorgeous to me. You are gorgeous. No matter what. You could grow so old that every inch of your skin had a wrinkle, and I would tell you the story of how each one was made. I love you and everything about you. I just wish for you to have everything you deserve""God damnit Cas.. I love you and you have to go through this too often with me."
"No, I could spend all day, everyday saying this and it would be the best days of my existence. You make everyday amazing no matter what"
"Fuck.. Castiel... I love you.. Please fix me"
"You are not broken. But I will heal you."
And with that he kissed each ear, repairing the damage done by John Winchester's wreaklessness."Let's start the day, love" Castiel laid on top of Dean's whole frame, not moving.
"That means you gotta move Cas"
"Oh." And with that he reached out to intertwine their fingers "you are beloved, forever and always Dean"
"You are my life too, angel"
