Making a Connection.

[followstheorders]

The hunt seemed to last forever. Dean had tracked the water wraith through almost two entire states before he finally caught up with it. Even then, the damn thing almost drowned him before he put it down. Probably should have called in some help, Dad or Bobby, but he wanted to finish it on his own. That way he could slip off and take a few days for himself afterward.

Dean dragged into his motel room and made a beeline for the shower. The water that thing had lived in was freezing and he was still chilled to the bone even an hour later. Before he did anything else, he was going to use up all the hot water he could get a hold of. Which, of course, made him miss another shower he'd enjoyed. Man, he couldn't wait to get back.

After his shower, he pulled on a clean, dry pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt and ordered a pizza to be delivered. Then he flopped down on his bed, burrowing under the covers to thaw out and wait for his dinner.

"I'll follow in a minute," Dean answered and watched him leave. They shouldn't return together. Besides, he needed a minute to cool off.

After washing his hands and making sure he was respectable looking, Dean returned to their table. He was just in time... the food was being delivered. If he sat a little awkwardly, the waiter didn't seem to notice.

Nathaniel looked across the table and offered up a pleasant smile as Dean returned to the table and settled in. He picked up his beer and took a drink when the waiter left.

The food was good, thankfully. He hadn't been worried though, it usually was in this place. "So, after this, I suppose we should head back home."

They probably needed another shower... although it was pretty amusing watching Dean try to act natural when he was plugged.

Dean smiled back as relaxed as possible. It was strangely harder to play it normal now. After hours and hours of torment and restraint, now that he'd gotten off, he felt kind of loopy and hypersensitive. Never mind how difficult it was to sit still with Nathaniel's come inside him and that plug keeping him stretched and full.

Oh yeah, this was a night he was never going to forget.

"Probably. I don't know about you, but I'm a little tired." He answered with a slight grin.

"Yeah, we could probably use some rest." Dean especially had been pretty... busy today. He smiled a little bit to him and shifted his weight forward a little bit.

"Eat up. When we're done, we can head back. We can grab some dessert to go, if you want too."

"I never say no to dessert. Especially if pie is on the menu." He hadn't seen the dessert menu yet, but there was usually a good option.

dean picked up his silverware and dug into the food. Veal had an interesting texture and flavor, but it wasn't bad. Hell, nothing was bad smothered in marinara sauce and mozzarella.

"We'll see what's on there then." He flashed a smile across the table. This had been... a pretty successful date after all. Or at least, he'd like to think so... he'd definitely enjoyed every bit of it.

And as relaxed as Dean looked on his way out of the restroom? He'd dare say the feeling was mutual.

[followstheorders]

Definitely mutual. Dean couldn't help but feel pretty damn good about the whole thing. Not just tonight, even. They just seemed to... work together. It was awesome and a little bit scary. After the way things ended with Cassie he hadn't really wanted to get too close to anyone else like this, but now he was thinking maybe...
