It took Dean ages to stop crying. The first hour was just them, holding each other and crying.

"I've missed you so much," Dean whispered finally, as they sat on the couch, Dean holding Cas in his arms.

"I love you, Dean," Cas said. Dean kissed the top of Cas' head.

"Cas, I'm... I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, it was all my fault, I..." Cas sat up.

"Dean... she kissed you, right? Just tell me she kissed you, and it'll be okay," he said.

"She did, but Cas I didn't fight it like I should have, I didn't push her away, I'm so sorry," Dean said. Cas kissed him softly.

"I forgive you, Dean. It's okay," he said.

Dean wasn't sure how long it had been when Cas got a text.

"It's Gabriel. He's asking if I need him or if he can keep making out with Moose. Do you think he's being serious?" Cas asked. Dean chuckled.

"Who can tell? He's been slowly chipping away at Sam's straightness for a while. Maybe it's going to happen," he said.

"Should we go sneak up on them and find out?" Cas asked. Dean grinned. They both got up and hurried downstairs, but when they peeked around the corner at the car, Sam and Gabe were just talking.

"Aw, come on!" Cas shouted. Sam and Gabe glanced around at them. "Kiss!" Cas yelled at them. Sam laughed and Gabe grinned. They both got out of the car and Cas and Dean stepped out into the parking lot.

"Sorry to disappoint, guys," Sam said.

"But how are you guys? You were up there for a while," Gabriel said, winking.

"I remember everything!" Cas exclaimed. Gabe and Sam both grinned and hugged him.

"That's amazing!" Sam exclaimed. They decided to all go back up to the apartment to celebrate.

"I'm glad you remembered, Cas, I was having trouble figuring out how to get you to fall in love again," Gabe said. Cas smiled and took Dean's hand.

"I'm glad too."
