Summary
Dean’s getting some pancakes together for breakfast when Cas saunters in after a run.
He’s trying to focus on whisking batter, unfairly distracted by Cas a few feet away, breathing heavily and shining with perspiration. Dean’s been painfully aware for a long time that Cas is pretty easy on the eyes, but he’s used to seeing Cas buttoned-up and unflappable, looking straight-laced in a stiff oxford and an unflattering trenchcoat.
Now Cas is sweating, Dean’s borrowed t-shirt clinging to his skin, flushed from exertion and Dean really can’t deal with that in his kitchen right now.

Summary
Dean slides off the couch and onto his knees at Cas’s feet, needs to just give into the urgency while it’s still fresh.
He’s been thinking about it for a while, that… this is something they haven’t done yet.
Dean watches the emotions flit across Cas’s face – uncertainty, interest, no doubt about that. Cas cups his cheek, thumb straying to Dean’s bottom lip, like he knows where this is going. Dean wonders if he’s pictured it before, if he’s imagined it the way Dean has.

Summary
“I know there are things we haven’t done yet,” Cas says carefully, “I know there’s more.”
“Did you, uh,” Dean pauses, licking his lips, “Did you have something in mind?”
“I want to do everything with you,” Cas breathes, cupping Dean’s cheek and leaning in to kiss his waiting mouth. “I want to give you what you want.”
And oh, okay, one thing does spring to mind, if he’s being honest with himself, especially considering the way things normally play out between them, the way Dean was gearing up for Cas’s warm, solid weight pressing him down into the bed sheets. The trouble is, Dean is rarely being honest with himself.

Summary
Dean doesn’t even bother with clothes when he emerges. He crosses the room and flops face-down on the bed, fresh from the shower and gloriously naked. Castiel wants to touch, wants to taste every part of Dean’s soft freckled skin.
Dean catches his gaze, expectantly raises an eyebrow. Castiel recognizes it for the unsubtle invitation that it is. “You just gonna stand over there?” Dean drawls, thighs parting further, ever so slightly.
“Of course not,” Castiel says calmly, “In fact, I was thinking of getting my mouth on every last inch of you,” he adds, smile creeping onto his face.

Summary
Okay, maybe it was a little irresponsible to keep booking two rooms when they all worked together, just so he and Cas could have a little alone time. It was only a matter of time before the excess spending caught up to them. Dean just wishes they weren’t on the road with Sam when it happened.
Dean’s relationship with Cas may not be a secret anymore, but it’s been a while since they’ve been stuck in a room with Dean’s cockblock of a brother. It’s not like Dean’s never gone a while without sex before, but it’s different being in the same bed every night with someone he wants so badly, but not being able to really act on it.
He can’t believe he’s still so desperate for it, how he’s been spoiled by Cas’s touch, his undivided attention in the privacy of one of their beds or a shared motel room.

Summary
Castiel’s been compiling an ever-growing list of the things that Dean likes, and the things that he likes himself. It’s exciting how often they perfectly overlap – Dean pinned underneath him, Castiel’s mouth on the delicate skin of Dean’s throat and, more recently, Dean spread out and moaning, trembling as Castiel works him open with his tongue.
Castiel’s always eager to get to the root of the hidden things that drive Dean wild. He needs more data to be absolutely sure on this one, that being marked up with Castiel’s come is one of those filthy-wrong things that Dean is reluctantly enthralled by, can’t get enough of but would never ask for. Castiel has absolutely no complaints about doing more research.

Summary
“I’ve never seen you wear these,” Cas says slowly, glancing down at the delicate garment he’s holding. Dean feels his pulse ratchet up a notch when Cas looks at him again, holds his gaze with magnetic intensity. “I would remember.”
“Well, y’know, it’s usually—” He struggles to find the appropriate word for it, for when he slips on a pair when he’s by himself, choking on shame and arousal, barely gets a hand on himself before he’s coming hard, gasping and staining the fabric. “…Private,” he decides. He’s officially flustered at this point, and Cas’s doubt and confusion are being rapidly overtaken by an interest so sharp that it feels dangerous. “Just… for fun,” he adds.
Cas eyes the panties in his hand again, eyes Dean, understanding dawning on his face. “Wearing these excites you.”

Summary
Cas has crowded in close, hand on the small of Dean’s back, nothing overt or inappropriate, but it’s noticeably intimate – and Dean’s perfectly fine with that until he notices an older couple further down the aisle throwing uncharitable looks in their direction. He tenses beneath Cas’s touch, heart pounding in a way that has nothing to do with Cas’s proximity.
He’s normally more careful in public. For a second he wonders if these people are genuinely hostile, like in a minions-from-hell kinda way, but Dean knows the difference between murderous intentions and… this. The judgment in their eyes has Dean stupidly shaken, feeling exposed. They’ve seen this side of him and they don’t care for it at all, and as little as Dean cares about the opinion of two backwater hicks at the local Wal-Mart, it still touches a nerve.

Summary
They’ve skirted this line before, fallen almost accidentally into those moments where Cas blurts out an order and Dean falls all over himself to comply.
They’ve never followed that thread so far before, and Dean’s not totally sure what that means.
But he was—he was so into it, and he’s actually pretty okay with that. He would’ve tried to steer things in this direction himself if he could think of any way to say, “Hey, if you bossed me around in bed a little, that’d be cool,” that wasn’t completely mortifying.

Summary
He can’t believe they’re even having this conversation. Dean had been innocently minding his own business, putting laundry in the dryer, when Charlie had suddenly materialized beside him with a plan.
A completely ridiculous plan that he rejected immediately, not that it slowed her down any. To Dean’s utter dismay, it seems like no matter what he does, Charlie is not going to let up on trying to sell him on her latest bright idea – her taking Dean and Cas on a ‘fun night out.’
At a gay bar.

Summary
“Have you ever tried baklava?” Cas asks, voice dipping low, a suggestive lilt to his words.
“No,” Dean says slowly. “Is it any good?”
Cas fixes him with a very intent look. “I think you’ll like it.”
And for Dean, that’s assurance enough. He’s definitely game.
When Dean jets off to Europe with Cas, he gets a much-needed vacation from hunting – and his insecurities.
