Changes(Cas)

Castiel's hands were shaking. He couldn't believe that this was happening. Could Dean actually be his soulmate? Was this actually possible? Something deep within Castiel's chest was telling him yes, Dean was destined to become his life partner, but logic was trying to tell him otherwise. Cas just couldn't believe all this was real.

In a daze Cas watched Dean back up and pull out of the driveway. He felt a strange emptiness filling him as Dean drove off. Cas wanted nothing more than to keep Dean here for the rest of his life. Not in like a creepy stalker way or anything, but more like he wanted to spend the rest of his life getting to know this beautiful boy. There was just something about him that Cas just couldn't shake.

Cas stood there motionless until the Impala's taillights vanished into the cool night air. Even after the car was gone, Cas seemed to have trouble getting his legs to work. He felt like he was made of Jell-O. His whole body was quivering with energy and excitement. The air around him seemed to hum with electric currents and the crickets hiding in the dark grasses seemed to be chirping with joy. Cas knew something extraordinary had happened tonight and he couldn't wait to see where destiny was leading him.

The loud cry of an owl jolted Cas from his trance and scared him. His heart was pounding from the surprise and made him realized that he should probably head inside. Cas knew that he should really get changed and try to get some sleep.

On wobbly legs Cas somehow managed to get back inside, locking the door securely behind him. He felt like he was floating on a cloud, nothing around him seemed to be real. Everything had begun to blur together, sounds and colors mixing together into something indistinguishable. Stuck in this dreamlike state, Cas managed to drag himself past the living room. As he wanted deeper into the house, Cas found Gabriel and Ruby. The two of them were squished on the sofas getting a little more than frisky with each other. Cas didn't really want to bear witness to what they would be doing next.

Gabriel was far too drunk and far too busy putting his head underneath Ruby's skirt to see Castiel as he passed. Cas was sure that he could have come inside with a marching band in toe and Gabriel still wouldn't have noticed his arrival. He basically had a one track mind when he was drunk. Once he got fixated on something, it was hard to change his course. Normally that irritated the fuck out of Cas, right now, he didn't really care what the hell his brother was doing Cas was in his own perfect little bubble and he would deal with Gabriel and his stupidity later.

Cas drifted upstairs, his mind filled with thoughts of Dean. He wanted to know absolutely everything about Dean. His face seemed to be permanently imprinted into Castiel's brain. He never wanted to forget such a glorious and angelic looking face. Cas wanted to stare at Dean forever and get lost within that deep sea of green sparkling eyes. He had never seen eyes more beautiful than Dean's. Cas wanted to gaze into those deep soulful orbs as he tangled his fingers into Dean's sandy blonde hair. His mind pictured them cuddling together, talking for hours and sharing their innermost thoughts with one another. Most of all, Cas wanted to know what it was like to kiss those full, plush lips of his. Dean's lips just seemed so kissable! Cas was a sap and he knew it. He couldn't help it! He had always been fond of those fairytales with the happy endings. Cas kinda hoped that his life could end up like one of those.

Cas placed a hand over his heart. He could feel his heart beating painfully against his ribs, almost hard enough to hurt. He longed to be back inside that car sitting beside Dean. Although the two of them hadn't been alone, Dean had been the very center of Castiel's attention.

He felt like all his problems would instantly be absolved if he was with Dean again. Nothing else would matter if he was back by Dean's side. Never in his life had he felt anything this strong. This had to be what people felt when they finally met their soulmate. Cas had no other explanation for this overwhelming feelings building up inside him. This feeling was almost nauseating.
