Our Love Will Never Fade (Destiel High School AU)

Chapter Twenty-One

{Castiel's POV}

   I laid on Dean's bed, staring at the ceiling. I looked at the clock. It's 2 in the morning. Dean's soft snores filled the room. I couldn't help but think how cute Dean looked while he slept. Ugh! Why can't I sleep? I groaned and gently moved Dean's arm draping over me before getting out of bed. Dean stirred a little, but didn't wake.

   After quietly walking out of the bedroom, I went to the kitchen. Maybe some tea will help me sleep. Do they even have tea? Oh yeah, I made Dean buy some. I went through the cabinets searching for the box of tea. I grabbed a tea bag and a mug.

   I sat on the couch with my tea and turned the TV on. Ah yes, tea and crap television. I better fall to sleep after this. I took a sip from the mug.

   "Cas?" Dean's deep voice broke through the soft noises of the TV.

   I jumped and started choking. I coughed, hitting my chest.

   "Woah, you okay?" Dean came over to me and patted my back.

   After a minute of coughing and getting my breathing back to normal, I looked over at Dean.

   "You scared the crap out of me." I said.

   He chuckled. "I can see that. Sorry. What are you doing up?"

   "I kept waking up and I couldn't fall back to sleep so I got a cup of tea thinking it would help." I grabbed the mug I set down.

   "I'll stay up with you." He wrapped a arm around my shoulders and grabbed the remote from my hands.

   "No, Dean, it's okay. Go back to sleep. I don't want to keep you up."

   "I'm fine. I don't mind."

   He grabbed the mug from my hands and took a drink. His face scrunched up in disgust.

   "How can you drink this stuff? It's gross." He gave the cup back.

   I smiled. "You're just weird."

   "Says the one who drinks this disgusting substance."

   "You make it sound like it's the most outrageous drink. A lot of people drink tea, Dean."

   "Yeah, crazy people."

   I laughed. "So you're saying you fell in love with a crazy person."

   "Yes. I'm crazy. You're crazy. I guess that's why we're such a good couple." He chuckled.

   I smiled. For not being a relationship type, Dean was such a great boyfriend. I leaned up and kissed him. He smiled and broke the kiss.

   We walked back to Dean's room and laid down after staying up for about an hour. Dean pulled me towards him, my back to his chest. His arm draped over my waist. I brought the blankets up to us. Dean started humming. I smiled and snuggled closer to him.

Saturday Morning

{Dean's POV}

   I packed the car while Sam and Cas got ready. I decided to get up at 9, so we could have time to drive to and from and spend a few hours practicing. I walked back inside and into my room. Cas was on his knees, going through his bag wearing just a pair of jeans.

   "How long does it take to get dressed?" I sat on the edge of my bed.

   He pulled on a long sleeve shirt and glared at me. "There. Happy."

   "Someone's a little grumpy this morning." I chuckled.

   "Sorry. I didn't get much sleep last night. I kept waking up, remember?" He ran a hand through his hair and stood up.
