Our love is only as strong as each other.

Dean POV

That bastard. I had feelings for Cas but I didn't know how to come to terms with them. Now here I sit with him holding my hand to keep my head from fucking exploding. Lovely.

"Umm Cas.." I started after Lex cleared the hall. "I uh I have no I believe that my feelings for you are more than just friendship." I stuttered. Cas just stared at me. I started panicking.

"Screw it" I muttered. I took Lex's approach. I grabbed Cas by his face and kissed him hard. I didn't give up like Lex did though. I held on until I got a response. Which was Cas melting into my hands and kissing me back.

I did finally pull away because we both still needed oxygen. "Thank you." Cas whispered. I laughed and hugged him hard.

"You don't have to thank me for something I should have done a while ago."  I muttered in return. We made our way hand in hand to the living room. Sammy looked like a mess.

"She just peeled out on her bike. What did she mean talk to her father." Sammy said rounding on Gabe. He shrugged and muttered something about it being her story to tell.

I grabbed Cas's hand and we settled on the couch.

"She is an excellent driver on her bike. She will be fine." Cas said with complete confidence.

"Cas I wouldn't  be so sure of that." Charlie whispered as she turned on the news.

I saw an image of a terrible bike crash and sure enough the bike was Lex's. Sammy jumped up from his seat and grabbed his phone. He called Lex and we all heard her phone ring in her room.

"What did I do?" Gabe muttered under his breathe. I thought Sammy was going to kill him.

"Boys call down. They said that the driver was fine. No injuries except road rash. Maybe she left the hospital and went somewhere." Bobby said. Sammy sat down obviously just trying to calm down.

"Dean give me your phone." Gabe demanded. I handed it over and he scrolled through my contacts. He selected a number and held it to his ear.

"Is she okay?" He asked with panic as soon as whomever answered.

"Yes I know you said not to hurt her but.." Then we all heard yelling.

"Yes sir." Gabe said hanging up. He handed me my phone and stared at the ground.

"She is fine" he said before disappearing with nothing but the sound of wings. I felt Cas tense up beside me as Gabe flew off. I pulled him closer and rested my chin on his head. He nearly purred for a second as he adjusted to being held.

"You two are literally so cute together." Charlie said awing over the two of us. I knew I turned red at her remark. Cas buried his head into my chest also turning red.

Sammy was still being a mother hen. Freaking out over Lex just up and leaving.

"Dude chill the fuck out." I said. He turned and glared.

"Dean I didn't kiss her back. I just let her leave. I let her get in that bike knowing full well she was pissed." He started yelling. I stood set angling myself from Cas.

"Chill. She is fine. She is a big girl and can handle anything. You know that. And she left everything here she will be returning." I said.

"Jerk."

"Bitch."

All in all it was one crazy Christmas. The bracelet that Cas gave me kept drawing my eye. Silver with flat pieces of metal that had wings imprinted in them. It was awesome.

Later that night we all were watching T.V when Sammy turned to Cas.

"Hey do you know who Lex's father is?" He asked. I looked down at my angel and he turned red before nodding.

"Will you tell us." Sammy asked. I continued to look at Cas. He turned even redder.

"Despite believing you should know I promised Lex not to say a word. From what I know about promises you are not supposed to break them." Cas said. I smiled and kissed the top of his head.

"Well goodnight then." Sammy whispered. He stood and walked to the room. I watched him but turned my attention back to Cas who looked worried about telling us. I smiled and watched the rest of the movie. When it ended it was pretty much time for all of us to hit the hay. I turned to gently push Cas off my chest but he was asleep when I looked down.

I smiled and slowly very slowly picked him up and carried him to his room. I set him in his bed and pulled his blanket over him.

"Night angel." I whispered before stepping out.
