A Very Merry Christmas In The Bunker || Destiel ✔

Chapter 4

Not long after their activities, Dean had fallen asleep, leaving Castiel laying back on the bed next to him wide awake as he stares at the ceiling. He feels as though he should go apologize to Sam soon about his strategy in keeping Dean busy.

Although, he's certainly not sorry for initiating sex with Dean, and it did work to keep him occupied while Sam went to hide the Christmas decorations he and Eileen had gone out to buy after all. What he is sorry for though, is for initiating it in front of Sam.

Unfortunately it was just the best strategy he could come up with on the spot to distract Dean.

And now Dean's fallen asleep. Which is usually what happens after they've had sex. He falls asleep almost straight away after.

Getting up slowly, Castiel tries not to wake Dean as he gathers up his clothes from the floor and gets dressed back into them. He should probably have a shower later, just to clean himself up more. He and Dean did sort of clean up before he fell asleep, but a shower would be much better.

Casting one last glance over at Dean once he's dressed and standing by the door, Castiel makes sure his hunter is still asleep, before he's quietly making his way out of their room and through the bunker in search of Sam.

While he's at it, he decides he can bring some more food to Dean. Just in case he wakes up before he returns to their room and questions where he went off to. Maybe he can attempt to make a burger for Dean. Although, he's not very skilled in cooking....

Entering the bunker's library, Castiel finds Sam seated at the table on his laptop - most likely searching for any cases that need taking care of - while Eileen sits next to him at the table reading.

"Hello, Sam." Castiel says, standing awkwardly in the entryway to the library.

Sam looks up at him, smiling a little. "Hey, Cas."

Castiel makes his way over to him, but doesn't take a seat. "I uh... want to apologize for my method in distracting Dean while you-" He starts, but Sam cuts him off.

"Cas, it's okay." Sam says. "You don't need to apologize. Besides, it worked, right?"

Castiel nods. "Well, yes. It did." He says. He won't deny that it did work. "Dean's sleeping if you want to know. He tends to fall asleep most of the time after we..."

"Alright. Thanks, Cas." Sam nods. "By the way, we might need to to keep Dean distracted again when we go out to get a tree."

Castiel tilts his head to the side. "A tree?" He asks, confused. "What do you need a tree for?"

He's not positive why they'd need a tree. He would've thought the decorations would be enough. Of course, he doesn't entirely understand the whole concept of Christmas. It's just never been something that's ever been on his radar.

"A Christmas tree, Cas." Sam says. "You can't have Christmas without a tree and an angel on top."

As Sam says an angel on top, Castiel backs away a little. They put angels on top of Christmas trees?

"Sam, I hope you're not planning on putting me on top of any Christmas trees." Castiel says, narrowing his eyes at the youngest Winchester.

Sam looks confused at Castiel's words, before he laughs, realizing what he had said and how it must've sounded to the angel. Castiel must've taken it as they put actual angels on top of Christmas trees.

"No no, Cas." He says. "An angel ornament. Not a real angel." He assures him. "Or alternatively a star ornament instead of an angel one."
