“So,” Dean said, peeling off the label of the bottle while Cas mopped up the remaining egg yolk with his toast. “Finally used your key.” Dean had handed Cas a key six months prior and told him, “Figured someone should have a spare key for emergencies, and Sammy’s three hours away, so. Congrats.” Cas had slid it onto his key ring later on that night, and for six months afterward tried and failed to stop thinking about the intimacy implied in the gesture. “I didn’t think I’d have to use it,” Cas admitted. He felt crumbs on his chin and attempted a half-hearted swipe to get rid of them. Dean handed him a napkin, waved off Cas’s thanks, then scratched his neck. “When I gave the key to you I kind of figured you’d use it for…” He made a vague gesture, but let his sentence trail off. “For?” Cas prodded. “For just because,” Dean mumbled. He wasn’t looking at Cas. “I mean, you’re here half the time anyway.” [Dean's got a hangover, and Cas has a key.]
