Let me tell you

So Dean has heard of Gabriel, but not Cas, when Anna starts bothering the wrestling team about helping out her cheerleaders. Dean’s not about to give up wrestling but he agrees to come to cheer practice part-time and help out on game day with some of the formations. As a favor to Anna. Not because he’s interested in football players - they’re all either hulking meatheads or poncy show-offs like Gabe.

But halfway through the first game he spends with the cheer squad, he turns to Anna like, “Has the other team really not scored yet?” And with a little coaching on football strategy from Anna, he picks up on the fact that the reason the other team can’t score is because of that one defensive end fucking up every single one of their plays.

He’s kind of impressed until the next turnover, when the defensive line comes off the field and takes their helmets off, and he sees that sweaty black hair sticking to that creased forehead above those tired, fierce eyes.

Then he’s really impressed.

A couple of weeks later coach Singer takes the whole football team out to celebrate winning their division championship at the restaurant where Dean works part-time as a waiter. Cas is, of course, the celebrant of the night and the entire team makes it known by patting him on the back every chance that they get. When Dean comes up to the table to take their orders, he gets to the handsome defensive end last. Cas is wearing a normal sweater and jeans ensemble that totally hide his tight little figure (the one Dean knows for absolute fact is underneath all of that loose cloth), and Dean can’t stop himself from smiling all doopey when he greets him. “Hi.”

When Cas looks up— POW! Those baby blues are right on Dean’s face; he doesn’t even realize how hard that look hits because he smiles disarmingly back at Dean before replying, “Hello.” 

Later that night once Dean starts taking some of the empty plates off of the table, he gets to Cas again and startles violently when Cas says to him: “So you wrestle, you cheer-lead, and you wait tables. What can’t you do?”

“Huh?!”

Cas gives him a bashful little smile. “I’m… sorry, n-nevermind.”

“No, no, were you trying to flirt with me?” Dean has no control over his own mouth all of a sudden, it seems.

Cas blinks at him for a few seconds before replying, “Trying being the key word.”

At this point the entire team stars staring at them at them from their various locations around the table. Gabriel, who’s sitting next to coach Singer on the opposite end, lets out a loud whoop when he notices. “‘Ey yo Cas, is that the dude?”

“Woah Cas, this is him?!”

“Oh shit— the dude!!”

“Yeah man, that wrestler he’s been drooling over all season.”

And Dean is literally at a loss for words, because there is NO WAY that the hottie on the football team whose ass he’d been worshiping for a whole month has also been ogling him right back for… longer than that?!

When Dean takes a look at Cas’s face, Cas is a very interesting shade of red and a very endearing level of embarrassed that Dean would never have associated with the slick defensive end he’s used to seeing on the football field. Somehow, the thought makes his stomach turn with delight.

“Cas was it?” Dean starts.

Cas nods slowly.

“How ‘bout you take me to a movie after dinner’s over, big boy?”

Do you think this ever happened before? Do you think an angel ever trusted anything with something so valuable like Cas is trusting two humans?

Remember, just one episode later Gabriel will scoff at the thought of giving the real thing to another being. You think I’d give Kali my real sword? That thing can kill me! The amount of trust required is staggering.

And yet here we see Castiel give two to a couple of humans. Beings that much of Heaven and the other angels have seen as insignificant for most of their time on the show.
