It is the 5 year anniversary of the death of your family. That was when you met the Winchester brothers and they took you in. You come from a family of hunters and you had been following a nest of vampires when you found out they connected to another large nest the next town over. That's when your parents called Bobby only to find that he had past but Sam and Dean were more than willing to help.
They told you guys to wait but your parents were stubborn and wanted to check out the place again. The vampires got to your mom before she could get out but your dad made it out. When the boys got there your dad explained what happened and you all headed in. Sadly your dad was killed and your brother badly injured while fighting. He was only sixteen and you held him as Dean raced to the hospital. But it was too late.
Sam and Dean felt terrible about it but you didn't blame them. They took you in and you have been hunting with them ever since, becoming closer with them and their angel friend Castiel. Every year they let you do your own thing around this time knowing how hard it is for you because you watched your father and brother die like that. This year was no different except that they went on a case two days ago so you had the bunker to yourself which you didn't mind.
You spent a good part of the day working out and practicing in the shooting range before showering. When you got out you threw on some clothes and went to make some food. You sat down at the table to eat. This was the first time in the past two days you actually sat and let yourself think. As you do you feel your eyes begin to sting as images of your little brother in your arms in the back of the impala flash through your mind. You stand up and try to think of something, anything. But you can't. You fall to your knees in tears.
"Castiel. I need you." You whisper knowing he'd hear you.
He has always been a great listener. The other boys didn't understand because when they have lost each other they have came back and neither of them like to talk about these things anyway. Cas would listen and let you cry if you needed to. He held you when you were weak. He didn't try to fix you, most of the time. He didn't try to get you to kill something to get your mind off of things. He just let you get everything out and that's what you loved about the sweet angel.
You hear wings and the papers around you fly.
"(Y/N)! Are you hurt?" He runs over and crouches next to you and you shake your head. "What's wrong?"
"It's all coming back. I can see him. Dying. I held him as he died." You say through your tears. "I could've done something! It should've been me!"
"No, no. You did all you could. No it should not have been you. You know why?" He lifts your chin. "You have made the boys more careful. They haven't died since they met you. They usually die every other year." He says, a weak smile on his face. You let out a weak chuckle.
"Thank you Cas. You always know what to say." You say and hug him.
"Would you like to go to the couch or bed?" He asks.
"The couch." You say.He picks you up and carries you bridal style to the couch. He sets you down and sits with you. You lay your head on his chest and cuddle into him.
"I love you, Castiel. You know that. You're a better human than most humans." You say, he chuckles.
"I just do what I think is right. And that is helping you and keeping you safe." He says and kisses the top of your head.You smile and hug him. He puts his arms around you and leaves them there as you sit in silence. You slowly drift off.
You're awoken by getting picked up you don't say anything. You open your eyes to see Castiel is carrying you to your room. He lays you down covering you up. He turns to leave but stops. He come back and kisses you on the forehead.
"I love you, (Y/N)." He says after.
"I love you too, Cas." You say and he jumps.You smile and open your eyes.
"Sorry I didn't mean to wake you. I just-"
"Castiel it's okay. But don't leave. Stay. I don't want to be alone." You say scooting over and patting the bed.He crawls in next to you and you cuddle close to him. He makes you feel safe.
"You know I don't sleep." He says.
"I know. Help me dream." You say knowing of his ability to enter people's dreams. "Or just sit. I don't care just stay with me. You make me feel safe."
"I'll stay. I'll stay for as long as you need. Anything for you, (Y/Y)." Castiel says brushing the hair out of your face.You fall asleep once again. Calm and peaceful knowing you had an angel at your side but not just any angel, you had Castiel.
