Pairings: Dean x Castiel


At a local bar, the Winchester brothers were celebrating completion of a difficult case. They had just placed their orders. Dean ogled their attractive waitress as she walked away to get their drinks. Sam frowned. Initially it had seemed like a good idea to come to the bar but Sam was beginning to reconsider. Since Castiel had helped them out earlier in the investigation Dean had invited him to join the celebration. However given their secret relationship and Dean's constant flirting with the waitress it was increasingly becoming a bad idea. He had tried to talk his brother out of it but he wouldn't listen. As much as Dean tried to hide their relationship in public, Sam knew what Cas meant to him. He just wished he would tell Cas already instead of hitting on every attractive woman in sight when they were in public.

The sound of fluttering of wings announced the arrival of their guest and as usual Castiel took his seat next to Dean like he always did nowadays. From where he was sitting Sam could tell he was already uncomfortable. Castiel wasn't exactly the most expressive guy in the world but it was easy to tell that he didn't like it when Dean hit on women, especially in front of him. Sadly Sam knew from experience that he would never tell his brother that. Instead the angel would become depressed and pretend nothing was wrong even if Dean asked. What made it worse was the fact that Dean did it every single time they got together to celebrate after a good hunt. It was getting a bit irritating for Sam to be around the two of them with his brother trying to hide how he feels and Cas for letting him.

When the waitress came back with their drinks, she leaned close to Dean as she placed their drinks on the table. The low cut of her shirt displaying the top of her firm breasts.
"If you need anything else just let me know. I'll be working until midnight tonight."
She winked at Dean before walking away. Next to him Castiel was looking away from the table, visibly uncomfortable. Sam knew it was because of Dean's behavior and he felt bad for him. Their relationship had been a surprise to him initially but after a while it made sense. He just wished his brother would quit acting like a jerk in public at least for Cas's sake.
Cheerfully Dean raised his beer, "To a job well done."
Both Sam and Castiel reluctantly raised their beers to the toast. Neither of them felt in the mood for celebrating anymore.

Hoping to excuse himself from the rest of the celebration, Castiel proceeded to down the drink in one gulp. As soon as he put the drink down on the table, immediately he stood up to leave. Unfortunately for him Dean's arm stopped him.
"Come on Cas. Stay for a while."
Sam knew from experience what his answer would be before even he sat down. Cas would never say no to Dean even if it pained him. Castiel loved his brother and wanted him to be happy. It was that same reason that made Castiel never verbally express how much he disliked Dean's behavior in public. Sam could only sigh in frustration as his brother signaled to their waitress to bring them another drink.
"I should go. I might be needed." Cas fidgeted in his seat still looking visibly anxious.
As if to ease the growing tension at the table, Dean playfully bumped his shoulder against his, "Relax Cas. We earned this."
Now normally Sam didn't like getting involved with the two of them but he didn't like seeing Cas so distressed.
"Dean if he has to go just let him go. We can always celebrate together another time."

His brother frowned at the thought. However before Dean could respond their waitress came back with another beer. She smiled at Dean again, her green eyes briefly looking over his whole body. It was obvious she liked what she saw.
"Looks like one of you is good with his liquor."
Dean grinned, patting Castiel on the back, "You would be surprised at how much he can put away with just a gulp."
As she put down the drink on the table her hand deliberately brushed against his. Slowly he picked up the empty one.
"I'm sure you have your own kind unique talents."
Their interaction was torturing Cas. Sam felt he had to do something.
"Um I think that table over there needs a waitress."
He points to another table that had been trying to get the waitress's attention for the last five minutes. A brief look of annoyance crosses her beautiful features before disappearing. She gives him a fake smile.
"I'll get to them right away." She looked over at his brother again. "Just let me know when you want more."
She winked at him as she left their table, purposely swaying her hips as she walked away.

Instead of gulping down his drink right away, Cas chose to only drink half of it this time. Sam could only assume it was because he didn't want the waitress to come back again while he was still at the table.
"I appreciate both of you inviting me but I should go."
"Cas..."
This time instead of their pretty waitress interrupting their conversation, an attractive man had come over to their table. He was a little taller than Dean but not quite as tall as Sam and had dark brown eyes that a person could get lost in. He was handsome, in good shape, and looked to be in his mid-twenties as he smiled at one guy in particular at the table.
"You guys are new in town, aren't you?" The man said as he leaned over the table.

Dean didn't like how the guy was looking at Castiel. The way man's eyes roamed the angel's body was like a predator's. He wanted him to leave his angel alone.
"Yeah we're leaving tomorrow," Dean gruffly answered.
The guy pouted briefly before smiling at Castiel again, "I don't suppose you would be up for getting a drink with me."
Dean answered again with annoyance, "He's already got one."
"I'm sorry I don't mean to interrupt guys' night out, but from where I was sitting he looks like he wants to get out of here."

Dean visibly tensed at his words, irritated, before forcing himself to relax and sliding his arm casually around Castiel's shoulder. Dean glared at the guy, wanting him to leave.
"He's fine."
"Are you free right now? I'll make it worth your while." The guy asked Castiel, smiling at him completely ignoring the irked hunter sitting next to him.
"He's taken." Dean grip on Castiel's shoulders tighten possessively.
The guy kept smiling as he lowered his voice, "It's not like they have to know about it. It can be just one night of fun."
Sam could tell by the look of anger on Dean's face he was about ready to punch the guy. Mentally he braced himself for a fight.
"I'm his..." Dean nearly choked on his words, "boyfriend."
Both Sam and Castiel were visibly shocked by his admission. The guy looked at him in disbelief.
"Right... I saw you hit on that waitress with the dark hair a few minutes ago."
The guy's attention returned to Castiel for his answer. "So what do you say? Want to have a good time tonight?"

Dean's reaction wasn't what Sam had expected. Instead of decking the guy his brother had used his arm around Castiel's shoulders to pull the angel's head towards his own and kiss him; his fingers carding through the angel's soft dark hair. Castiel was surprised at first but gradually allowed himself relax into the kiss as Dean's tongue gently worked its way into his mouth. He let out a groan as Dean awkwardly pulled their bodies closer together. The angel hesitated briefly before putting his arms around the hunter's firm body. He knew Dean wasn't comfortable showing any public displays of affection towards him but he felt really happy at that moment. If he could he would show everyone there what Dean meant to him.

When they finally parted minutes later, the guy was at the bar hitting on another guy while their waitress was avoiding looking in their direction. Instead she was taking care of another table, acting nowhere nearly as pleasant as she had been earlier. Dean was a bit surprised that very few people seemed to pay any attention to them. Two guys making out in a bar might not be that common in the town but he expected more of a negative reaction then he got. The ones that did stare had a different reaction on their faces; some in disgust and others in curiosity and amusement. The rest of the people in the bar just continued on the way they were like nothing happened.

Dean suddenly realized that he didn't care what they thought or what anyone thought about him and Cas. He was in love and that he didn't have to hide their relationship in public by hitting on every pretty waitress they met. He knew Sam didn't care as long as they didn't get too outwardly affectionate in front of him. In fact Sam was surprisingly supportive of them being together. (Initially he wasn't given how he found out but eventually he gave his blessing.) He also knew his behavior wasn't being fair to Cas. He had been concerned about how people would treat him after knowing he was involved with a guy. Now after witnessing another guy hit on his angel in public made him angry; angry at himself. If Bobby was around he would have been called an idjit and he knew deserved it.

Lovingly Dean caressed Castiel's jaw with his hand. He wanted to say so many things like how sorry he was for his actions but he couldn't bring himself to do it. Instead he tenderly kissed the angel on the lips in hopes of forgiveness. The kiss itself was just as passionate as the previous one but without the added pressure. Dean gripped Castiel's dark hair and deepened the kiss, showing everyone in the bar he didn't care what they thought. If the people in the bar hadn't thought they were together before, he made it very clear now that they were. The more they kissed, the less he focused on his surroundings and the more he started to focus on the way Cas's lips and body felt against his. It always amazed him how good it felt being with Cas. He still couldn't believe he had initially resisted the idea. It a strange way it was beginning to feel more and more like they were meant for each other, not that he would ever say that out loud.

It took several of Sam's uncomfortable coughs to remind them that they were still in public, making out in the bar in front of his brother and a room full of strangers. The awkwardness of the moment came back to him and the hunter released his grip on Castiel. Separating allowed Dean to finally see what his actions had done to the angel. Instead of his normal untidy appearance, his dark hair was a mess, his face flushed, and his lips swollen from all the kissing. It was easy to tell Castiel wanted more with the animalistic look he gave him as he subconsciously licked his lips. It was the same look that Castiel had whenever he desperately wanted to have sex with him.
"Want to get out of here for a while?" Dean asked his voice hoarse from all the kissing.
"Yes."

Quickly Dean jammed his hand into his pocket and dumped his keys on the table. As soon as the keys landed, they both disappeared from their seats leaving Sam sitting alone at the table with three beers. It was going to take him a while to get through all those beers but it also meant he didn't have to go to the motel right away. The last thing he wanted to accidentally see or hear them going at it (again). Sam smiled to himself. Normally he wasn't much of a drinker but tonight he felt more like celebrating than he had before. He hoped his brother was finally going to stop acting like a dick in public to Cas because he doesn't know how to handling being in relationship. Yet in the back of his mind he also hoped that their new-found public affection wouldn't become too unbearable to be around.


Author's Note:

I was working on another fic for a different story when it hit me that almost all my Supernatural fics (minus one) could all be from the same alternate universe and that is how this story was born.

I want to give a special shout out to HugAZombie. I got really stuck on this one paragraph and she offered to look it over. Since it was a critical chapter I couldn't just remove it. If I hadn't gotten stuck I would be a lot further along not only with this story but some of my other stories. She saved me a ton of time.

If by chance there are any errors I missed let me know. I lost track of how many times I've rewrote this chapter. (I still don't have an editor).

As for the bar scene as a whole, I kept it a lighter tone.

Reviews/favorites are greatly appreciated. It lets me know that you the readers are enjoying my work.
