DEAN POV

Why is he holding my hand? Why am I questioning it, this is good, great actually. This means he must like me, at least a little. And that means everything to me. I swallow hard and hold his hand back, hoping that he won't pull away.
His skin is so soft, but it also feels slightly boney. No matter how it feels physically, it's comforting, and I never want to let go of it.
I find myself focusing on his hand to much, because when I finally stop he's staring at me and the video has stopped.
"Do.. you want to watch more?"
"Actually, can we watch a movie? I feel in a movie mood"
"Yeah sure, whatcha in the mood for, Cas?"
"Horror?"
"I have the perfect movie. Up for The Exorcist?" He nods at me and I get up and grab the movie from the shelf.  I look over at him while walking over to the TV,  he's looking down at his hands. Is it because of us holding hands? Or something else? I push the thought aside and put the CD in the player. I grab the remote from the TV stand and go sit down next to Cas. I sit slightly closer to him than I did when we were watching videos, hoping he would be comfortable with it.
Once we are about 10 minutes into the movie, our hands are already locked. My focus is on his hand instead of the movie, just like earlier. I feel whenever he gets scared, or excited because his hand will shake, pulse, or tighten. I don't know why I care so much about this right now, but I just do. His hand, him. Is everything to me right now.  And I wouldn't want anything else. It's so weird that a coma made me fall in love with someone I have never met, it's just hard to see that he isn't in love with me after everything I saw and seemed to experience.
Once we are roughly halfway through the movie, I scoot towards him more, until we almost touch, and finally decide to let go of his hand, to wrap my arm around his shoulders. He jumps slightly, but accepts it. I sigh with relief and enjoy the warmth I feel from the rest of his body.

CAS POV

Once his arm is around me, I feel a tug in my chest. Something I haven't felt before, something, fuzzy. I like it. I decide after enjoying the feeling for a few minutes, to lean against him and lay my head on his shoulder.  And only after a few short minutes, I fall asleep in his arms.
