As he looked down upon the city that was now his home, Castiel sighed. He had worked so hard these past few years at trying to make it a better place but night after night, the screams seemed to get louder and more often.
"We do what we can." The voice behind him sent a shiver through his body.
"Is it ever, enough, Dean?"
"I don't know."
Dean's arms wrapped around his body. His touch was always a comfort. Castiel turned to see the look in Dean's eyes.
"But we keep doing what we do to help people because we care. We live in hope of a better world and we show them that it is possible. We all have doubts about what we do, Cas."
"I just thought......"
"What? That because you're an alien you were the only one who doubted humanity's chances? Let me tell you something - you're not. Hell, you're more human than a lot of people."
"How can you say that?"
"Because I know you. I see your heart and all the good that's there. You were sent here for a reason. Just like I started doing this for a reason."
Castiel smiled softly. He couldn't help but fall in love with Dean all over again when he got like this. He'd never felt anything close to what he felt when he was with Dean. But he knew they could never be together the way they wanted. Destiny would pull them apart one day. Too bad Dean was in denial about it though.
But all of that went away the second Dean's lips touched his. The cold wind that surrounded them seemed to vanish, replaced by molten fire. Every time Castiel knew this had to be the last. But he couldn't help himself. Dean was like a drug to him. If drugs came in the form of men who were sex on legs even without the tight black leather suit he wore to save the world.
He melted into the embrace as he felt Dean's hand go lower and lower, caressing every inch of his body it could reach while the other hand was firmly entwined in Castiel's thick black hair. It was like Dean was trying to consume him with a kiss. To take all the doubt and angst away and just leave the love in his heart.
But even heroes need to come up fr air. That and Dean's suit was ringing. Well, the pager inside his suit was.
"Dean, you should go."
"Don't want to. Only want you."
"We have a job to do. You know, the one we both get all dressed up for? The whole saving the world one day at a time thing?"
"That."
The two parted ways with a gentle kiss and he could hear Dean shouting down the phone at Sam (or Bobby he wasn't sure) as he closed his eyes and smiled.
When he opened them again the sunlight stung his eyes. He was in his normal suit and coat looking down once more on the busy streets. The last time he'd been up here, he was happy and in love with Dean. This time he was alone. He was fond of Amelia, sure, and she would make someone a wonderful wife one day.
But deep down, Castiel knew it wouldn't be him. She was in love with her white knight. But he heart beat for the dark knight.
