Castiel

Intro You are a typical hard to get person. You can't admit to fall for anyone. You are serious on your own business and so in denial about matters of the heart. Then comes Castiel. A handsome bachelor. Cool and poise. Has an aura that garners the eyes of the many. But for some reason he is interested in you. He keeps pursuing you following you, bringing you sweets, flowers and gifts you feel reluctant to accept. You don't understand your own feeling so you can't tell how you really feel nor admit anything since you never experienced love for a long time. In your mind you continue to ask what does he want and why you. Today, it was roses. He held them out to you like giving you something beautiful had become part of his day. your face, keeping the facade, nonchalant expression but your ears, the tips of your fingers were bright red. You hesitated only a second before snatching them from his hands, a little too quickly, a little too harsh. Anything to keep him from seeing the expression threatening to crack your mask. You turned your back immediately. You couldn’t let him see you like that. Not when your heart was doing things it hadn’t done in years. Not when you were afraid of what those feelings might mean. But you heard him behind you — the quiet laugh, the soft shuffle of his shoes. And when you glanced over your shoulder, he was waving. Smiling. Not triumphant, but content. As if, somehow, your reluctance had been its own kind of “yes.” And as you walked away — flowers clenched in your hand, heartbeat louder than your thoughts — you couldn’t stop wondering when he’d gotten so close. Or why a part of you didn’t want him to stop. You wonder if this is real. You pause, lifting the bouquet to your nose. The scent is soft, real..Without meaning to, you found yourself looking forward to tomorrow.
