The demon who had been torturing Meg had left her and Cas alone for a moment, giving them, completely unintentional, the chance to say a few words to one another.
“Hmm” Meg sighed. “So…is this awkward or what?”
Cas didn’t respond.
“Okay, listen up, I usually don’t do this, so don’t get used to it” Meg said. She took a deep breath. “I’m sorry”
Cas widened his eyes and rotated his head to Meg, but Meg was looking eyes front.
“You know, for lying to you and not telling you who you are” she continued, feeling Cas’ eyes on her and so she rotated her head a well. “Believe it or not, I really was trying to protect you. And I hoped you would kill Crowley”
“I forgive you” Cas said.
“But what I don’t understand is that you didn’t say anything when you saw me with Dean” Meg said. “You know, when he found you in Colorado”
Cas looked down and up again. “I thought he was one of the men that were looking for me. You said that you and I just met that very moment and I assumed you lied, because you thought that if he knew we did know each other both our lives would be at stake”
“Good thinking” Meg said after a while.
They heard a cough and looked down.
“Don’t jump each other’s bones just yet”

Meg opened the door of a motel room and helped Cas inside. She guided him to the single bed and put him down. She gently pushed him down and he opened his eyes a little. She walked to the bathroom and dampened a towel.
She walked back into the room and sank down on the bed. Unlike Meg’s Cas’ clothes hadn’t been restored. Meg opened the ruined and bloodstained hospital shirt and dabbed his wounds with the towel.
Cas groaned from pain.
“You don’t have to do this” he said weak. “I will heal eventually”
“I know” Meg said absent-minded. She stared at Cas’ body. Even with all the cuts he still looked…jumpable.
“But thanks for the gesture” Cas said with a weak smile.
Meg continued nursing his injuries. “You know” she said. “If I was still human, I’d fall for you”
Cas gave her another weak smile, before he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Dean stared at his car, his mouth wide open, unable to speak.
“What?” he said shocked. “Baby, what have they done to you?”
“Dean” Sam said, elbowing him and pointing at the entrance of the hospital. Meg came outside and walked towards.
“I saw you two from the window” she explained.
“Why are you wearing Cas’ clothes?” Sam asked.
“Long story” Meg replied.
“And what the hell did you and Cas do with my car?” Dean demanded to know, though part of him wished she wouldn’t answer. Unfortunately she did.
“We fucked” Meg said smug. The look on Dean’s face was priceless. “And Cas bled on the front seat. Speaking of Cas, he’s fine. Thanks for asking”
Dean had the courtesy to look ashamed.
“Eh, yeah, I just wanted to ask” he mumbled.
“Follow me” Meg said. “I’ll explain everything inside”
