Hope (Destiel High School AU)

Chapter 36 - Juniors, Seniors, Graduates.

*6 months later - June*

(Dean's POV)

It was a pretty eventful junior year that I had and that Cas had. We went through a ton of shit but here we are, months later, the happiest we've been together in a long time. We still went through some problems and tough situations, but we never let it get to us too much. We always found our way back to one another, back into the others arms.

There was this one fight we had, that had Cas shaking in tears. He was yelling and sobbing...

*Two months ago*

There was some new girl at school, and all of the guys wanted her. I'd be lying if I said I didn't find her attractive, but my heart belonged to Castiel.

But no matter how many times I told him that I only loved him and only wanted him, he didn't seem to believe my words one hundred percent.

"You look at her." He bit down on his lip and I could see his eyes get watery.

"Cas, but I don't love her. I-"

"See! You do! I'm not good enough?" A tear slid down his cheek and he tried so hard to mask how upset he was, but it wasn't doing him any good because I could easily see how hurt he was.

"Cas, I love you." I moved closer. "I'm with you."

He stepped back, "but you want to be with her."

The words coming from his mouth stung a little but I would be lying if I said I did more than just look at the new girl. She would end up in my thoughts sometimes.

I guess it didn't do me any good when she flirted with me one day and I flirted back.. But I don't think Castiel knows about that. Hopefully...

(Cas' POV)

*two months and a day ago*

I was meeting up with Dean to eat lunch, but my teacher held me and some other students after class to discuss something with us.

When she was done though, I smiled and ran out of the classroom, and then started walking down the hall at a fast pace to get to my boyfriend.

But when I turned the corner to walk to his locker, I stopped suddenly. I saw Dean and that new girl, Amara, she was standing really close to him. Her hand in his hair, and she was saying something that had him smiling, and now her hand was on his cheek.

I think I heard her say, "You're really cute, Dean.."

"Oh yeah?" Dean smirked, raising an eyebrow. Ugh, Dean and his stupid cockiness...

What I was seeing happening in front of me, hurt. What I heard them say, hurt. She was flirting, and Dean was flirting back! What the hell!?

I felt my chest hurt, my heart clenched and I brought a hand up to my chest and held it. I bit down on my lip as it began to tremble, then I ran away when I couldn't fight back the tears that had formed in my eyes.

How could he do this?
