Summary: Dean gives Castiel a key to the Impala. Castiel is confused.


"Dean?"

"Just take the stupid key, Cas."

Castiel stared at Dean, his head tilted to the side. He stared at the key in his hand, a copy of the key to the Impala.

"I don't understand, Dean. You know that I can't drive."

Dean sighed.

"It's a gift, Cas."

"Christmas is three months away, Dean."

Castiel couldn't help but smile at the glare that Dean sent careening his way.

"It's a gift, Cas. Just take it."

"Why are you giving me a gift?"

"Because! Can't you just take the damn key?"

"What would I do with a key to the Impala, Dean?"

Castiel could see the gears churning in Dean's head.

"It's customary for people who have been toget--in a relatio--just take the fucking key, Cas," Dean finished lamely, sending another glare his way.

Castiel smiled.

"Happy anniversary, Dean."

Dean gaped at him.

"You've been fucking with me this whole time?" Dean asked.

If looks could kill, Castiel thought warily.

"Yes. But I still don't understand why you would give me a key to the Impala, Dean."

Dean shuffled his feet nervously.

"We've been doing--whatever the hell this is--for the past couple of months," Dean started nervously, "And it's just customary for people like us to, um, exchange apartment keys or whatever after a certain amount of time or something."

Cas merely stared.

"I know I don't have an apartment but my baby is basically like my house so, yeah," Dean finished with a shrug.

An expression of defiance crossed Dean's features, as if he daring Castiel to laugh at him.

But Castiel didn't laugh.

"Thank you, Dean. I very much like this gift," Castiel stated quietly.

The sincerity in Castiel's voice must have convinced Dean. The tension in Dean's body drained almost immediately.

"I love you, Dean."

Dean leaned in to kiss his angel.

"Yeah? How much do you love me?" Dean asked teasingly.

Castiel paused. He figured that Dean would be happy with his gift, too.

"Bend over this table and I'll show you just how much I love you, Dean."
