Tomorrow

Dean's PoV

              I wake up feeling safe, calm and... Loved? That can't be right. I can feel someone else in the room and without even opening my eyes I know who it is. 

             "Cas, why are you sitting beside my bed?" I open my eyes and look at him. He looks nervous...? No, embarrassed maybe... He looks down at his lap...

            "I was watching over you... You-uh, you had a dream... About Hell..," I tense feeling the familiar unease that comes with Hell. "I calmed you down very quickly..." 

           "How?" I ask, confused. 

          "I sing to you in Enochian. The same songs I pulling you out of Hell..." 

          "I didn't know you could sing."

          "All angels can sing. Most don't anymore," he looks up at me sadly. 

          "Well," swinging my legs over the bed, toward him, "I'm sure you've got a pretty great voice." I smile at him, scanning his face quickly before my eyes land on his lips in time for me to see them curl up in a slight smile. 

          'I'm going to ask him. Ask him. He's right in front of you.'  I try desperately to ask the question burning a hole in my heart and head. 'Ask him...' 

           "Hey, Cas...?" I look back into his eyes... I think I see hope but it could just be my own... "Do you--uh... We should go check on Sam. Make sure he's alright." 

           'I almost said it... Almost... Tomorrow, I promise, tomorrow I'll tell him.' 

           "Yeah..," I think I see pain flicker in his eyes as he nods but that could be my imagination, it must be. We both stand up and I freeze. My eyes lock on the lips inches from my own. I lick my lips and look up into his eyes. I lean in a little closer, without realizing it, but quickly take a step back, my leg hitting the bed. 

          "Uh, let's go... Need to make sure he's ok..," clearing my throat, not daring to move another step. His eyes scan my face as if he's trying to memorize it. 

          "Of course," he nods, staying in front of me a little longer before walking out of my room. I take a deep breath and follow him to Sam's room.
