Summary
Castiel thought he understood silence.
After spending so much of his life connected to his brethren, he felt the loss of their voices acutely when he fell. After knowing Dean for so many years, he thought he knew exactly how deafening a lack of communication could be. Castiel thought he understood silence. But, apparently, he was wrong.
It’s been two years since Castiel gave his life and his deepest secret to save Dean from Death. Two years stuck in the Empty, where the Shadow showed him his worst mistakes over and over again. No time at all, really – and an eternity.
Then all at once, he’s standing with his son and his best friend, and it’s like he never left – like his words of truth were never spoken. Silence reigns between them once more.
Until Castiel decides not to let it. He makes the decision to speak once more, but this time he intends for it to be a dialogue. He will remind Dean of how he feels and this time, he’ll be around for his answer.
This time, Castiel won’t settle for silence.
