would you please do disabled cas feeling like deans too good for him, and dean reassuring him? thanks:))))
(Anon, I have no idea if this is what you wanted, but this is the first thing that popped in my head and i rolled with it. )
Dean knew Cas was different from the first day they met. Dean was four and sitting under a large oak tree playing legos when a young Cas crashed down on him from above, proclaiming he was his guardian angel. But Cas wasn’t like other angels; unlike the others, who had expansive, full, white wings, Cas had smaller, spindly, black ones. His left wing hung limply to the side, twisted at an awkward angle, making him unable to fly. But Dean never minded.
Growing up, Dean and Cas ignored the whispers and open stares that others gave them as Cas walked by with his broken wing. They were content in their own world, climbing trees and pretending they were explorers on expeditions, stumbling down to their favorite creek almost every day in the summers. When they were young, they were content, oblivious to any perceived “wrongness” in Cas’s disability. In high school, their bulliers became more bold.
Whenever Dean’s back was turned, they would jeer at Cas’s wings, calling him a fake angel, an angel no good for protecting anybody. Instead of following Dean to his classes like he proudly did when they were smaller, Cas opted to stay outside in the school soccer field, huddled alone with a book or two, far from his best friend but watchful, until the bell rang and Dean was done.
Dean’s graduation day came around; Cas announced that he would no longer be Dean’s guardian angel, and had put in a request for a new one, a more competent one, to be assigned to Dean.
Tears glittering in his eyes, all of the inadequacies he felt through all the years of raised eyebrows at his tattered wings, the small whispers that he would never be able to protect Dean the way that he should, spilled over. “I’m not good enough,” he whispered.
Dean shook his head, fiercely pulling Cas into a strong hug. “No, Cas, you’re wrong.” His thumb brushed away the tears from Cas’s cheeks as he cradled his face in his hands. He pressed a gentle kiss to Cas’s chapped lips. “You’re good enough for me.”
