----------

I know it's cliche, but it was one of those nights and I couldn't be happier. It was our night off, meaning nothing big was going on so Cas was free to spend time with me. Which, of course, was always nice.

We were spending that time cuddling on the couch since Sam and Dean were gracious enough to go out for the night. It wasn't like they needed to or anything, but Dean had said he wanted to "have some fun and spend time with Sammy" so I guessed that's what they were doing.

My head rested on Cas' left shoulder and my legs were tucked under me, his arm around me. The TV was just an excuse to cuddle; I couldn't care less about what was on the screen and I had a feeling Cas didn't care either. I was with Cas; that was all that mattered. Besides, what's so interesting about those so-called 'reality' shows anyway? They are all clearly scripted.

I closed my eyes over an hour ago but didn't fall asleep. I kept listening to Cas' slow breathing and small laughs at the content he was watching. He still didn't quite grip the concept of reality shows and kept asking why everyone got frustrated over "such minor problems." I guess it would never make sense to him. Heck, it doesn't even make sense to me.

When I finally felt myself falling asleep, I opened my eyes, looking up at Cas. My eyes met the blue ones that were already staring at me. "What?" I asked, not even trying to hide the tiredness in my voice.

"You're tired," he stated. Then, without warning, he stood up.

I lost the warm feeling of his body against mine, and, since he had been my body's support, I almost fell sideways into his vacant seat. "Heyyyy..." I brought my arm up to hold myself up and watched what he was doing.

"I'm sorry, Y/N," he apologized sincerely. He then took off his trench coat. I frowned up at him in confusion; my brain didn't like working when I was tired.

He brought the garment to me and covered me with it. I smiled at the instant warmth the trench coat gave me. Cas smiled, too, and sat next to me again. He pulled me closer to him and I rested my head on him, closing my eyes.

I was starting to drift into a light sleep when my brain finally processed what Cas had done. "Cas..." I whispered.

"Hmm?" he hummed.

"Why did you do that?" I asked, "I can just go to bed."

Cas didn't reply. Instead, he wrapped his arm around me and kissed my head. I took that as he didn't want me to leave. So I didn't. And as a result, I fell asleep against him.

~~~~~~~~

I woke up sometime later to the sound of voices. Sam and Dean were back.

I was too tired to open my eyes, but I knew Cas was still next to me. His breathing was slower than normal, so he was probably asleep. I couldn't hear the TV anymore; Cas must've turned it off.

I heard Dean laughing softly and he said, "Aw, look at those two lovebirds." If I wasn't so tired, I would have gotten up to punch him. I'd have to wait until tomorrow.

Sam shushed him, but chuckled, "Jealous?" he whispered.

"Me? Why should I be jealous? Cas is way out of my league," Dean whispered back.

I heard the sound of a small slap and an "ow" from Dean. "That's not what I- nevermind. I'm too tired for this," Sam said.

I heard them, mostly Dean, continue to make small conversation as they left the room. I smiled to myself and tried to go back to sleep. Except something was missing and it took me a second to figure it out.

Cas' trench coat had fallen to the floor while I was sleeping.

It turned out my earlier assumption of Cas sleeping was incorrect when he suddenly moved as calmly as possible to pick up the lost trench coat. He covered me with it once again and sighed, "Goodnight, Y/N," he whispered.

"Goodnight."
