Sam’s reading, hunched over the pile ofbooks he thinks might have something useful in them. Yes, they’d ganked thething already by sheer luck but they didn’t actually know what the thing was, they’d never seen it before so he needed to figure it out in case it suddenly came back. Younever knew when it came to monsters.

... How long had he been staring at thesentence in front of him? He read it again but it was hard to wrap his headaround it.

“Dude, you’re still up?” a groggy voicesays and it’s Dean standing in the room in his sleepwear. “Sam, hunt’sover, better get some sleep.”

Sam blinks at him. “No, I, I needto find out what that thing actually was.”

“Can’t you do that tomorrow? That thingain’t killing people anymore.”

“Better find out as soon as possible,” Sam answers,rests his head on his hand and tries to focus on making sense of the page he’sbeen staring at for five minutes. His eyes flutter a bit as he leans againsthis palm and he thinks no time has passed but it must have because all of asudden Castiel is there (did Dean get him?), a hand laid gently on hisshoulder. 

“Sam?” Castiel asks when Sam jolts insurprise.

“’m fine,” Sam says as he rubs his eye, “’mjust gonna find the… the thing.” Cas gives him a worried look as he gives up onfinding whatever word he was after.

“You need sleep,” Cas replies but Samshakes his head. Cas looks over at Dean, who shrugs in a way that tells Casthis isn’t the first time Sam has run himself into the ground like this. “Fine,”he says decisively and puts his hands on Sam’s shoulders, “I’ll stay here untilyou go to bed then.” He starts kneading gently and Sam leans into the touch,barely catching Dean declaring that if they’re gonna stay they’ll need sometea, no coffee allowed. Sam resumes staring at the page, but it feels so niceto have hands on him smoothing out the kinks he got from hanging over the booksfor so long and he must have lost himself a little ‘cause Dean’s back with teaalready.

Castiel drapes a blanket over Sam’sshoulders as he takes a sip from the tea. It’s sweet and warms his insidespleasantly. He hadn’t noticed he was cold. Castiel sits down beside him, startslooking through another book and Sam blinks blearily at his own text one moretime and realizes it’s hard to keep his eyes open. He needs to keep them openfor a while longer, should stay here and research.

“The books will still be here tomorrow,”Castiel says as if he’s read Sam’s mind and Sam slumps over a little. “You needto take care of yourself, Sam. Nobody’s in danger right now.”

“That’s what I said,” Dean shoots infrom where he’s sitting on the sofa.

Sam looks at them both, eyes shiny fromlack of sleep. “Okay,” he mumbles, feeling too tired to argue. He hardlyremembers his brother and his lover helping him up and to his room, but heremembers sitting on the bed as Castiel kisses his cheek and helps him out ofhis pants and shirt. Castiel doesn’t sleep but when Sam lays back he feels hisboyfriend slip under the covers, snuggling up to him. The bed is so soft andwarm and comfortable and Sam falls asleep immediately, angel fingers playingwith his hair.

♈ Aries: Aries are a hyperactive sign and tend to have sleeping troubles. Their dreams are often intense and vivid, They find it very hard to wind down at night and ignore the health benefits of good sleep. Slide sleeping is known to improve sleep quality

♉ Taurus: Sleep can be very fitful for Taurus if they are not comfortable. They are especially sensitive to their environment. They tend to sleep long and appreciate bed time. Meaningful dreams. Sleep best in company.

♊ Gemini: Gemini can survive off a fairly minimal amount of sleep - but it eventually catches up with them. Their minds are always racing in overdrive so sleep never comes easily. Many see sleep as an inconvenience and insomnia as productive ‘extra’ time

♋ Cancer: Cancer can have restless sleep patterns because they are likely to suffer nightmares a lot. Bedtime is especially volatile for Cancer because they dwell in all their troubles before sleep. They usually never feel completely ‘awake’

♌ Leo: Most Leo are back sleepers and tend to drift off quite easily; unless they are stressed. They appreciate bed time and like to sleep amongst the most luxurious and sensuous of sheets and linen. Meaningful and precognitive dreams

♍ Virgo: Virgo cannot sleep if they are stressed or in an environment of disorder. Their chronic habit of overthinking makes it difficult for them to wind down before bed. They function most well when they have obtained a ‘sleep schedule’

♎ Libra: Libra swing between sleeping too much and not enough. They can survive on minimal sleep for a short period then literally spend days in bed. A balanced sleep pattern is a good sign of inner equilibrium for Libra

♏ Scorpio: Scorpio’s sleep is directed by their state of moods. A ‘lifted’ Scorpio will survive off minimal sleep - pushing bed time back as late as possible as they fall into their concentrated obsessions. An unhappy Scorpio will become very hypersomniac and need a lot of sleep

♐ Sagittarius: Sagittarius can survive off a minimal sleep arrangement but tend to naturally exhaust themselves through the day. They can put off bed time by becoming too excited or hyper about things at night. Occasionally restless, meaningful dreams

♑ Capricorn: Capricorn appreciate their sleep and try to get as much as possible - knowing it is within their best interests. A stressed Capricorn will have pronounced sleep troubles - insomnia is a sign of great inner distress for this sign

♒ Aquarians have pronounced sleep troubles and tend to be restless and uncomfortable in sleep. Their racing thoughts make it hard for them to wind down at night and their use of technology and reading before bed compounds their minimal sleep

♓ Pisces: Sleep is opium for Pisceans; and out of all the zodiac, they need the most hours. Their receptive nature means they are drained by others and sleep restores their energy reserves. Many never feel truly ‘awake’; they tend to have vivid and meaningful dreams.

Yesss

Sometimes good dreams, sometimes bad, but when they dream of losing the other they’re quick to grab onto each other in their sleep, sometimes waking the other up. 

Other times Sam dreams of Castiel’s wings, or Cas, if he’s awake, will send Sam blurry images of stars and galaxies Cas has seen long ago.

Omg yes. Sam and Cas phone calls.

And sometimes Cas can sense that Sam isn’t getting enough sleep or that he’s worn out but still wants to stay awake and talk to him so Cas makes sure his voice is very calm while he talks, tells him stories until he hears Sam reply with sleepy hums and he’ll suggest Sam move to his bed, continuing to talk in a calm voice until Sam’s breathing evens out and he stops getting answers. He’ll whisper “goodnight Sam” then and hang up with a small smile.
