Cas sat silently next to Dean's hospital bed. He was hunched over and still had wet cheeks from his tears.

"C-Cas?", Dean asked hoarsely.

Cas immediately looked up, his husband was staring at him. Cas moved over to him and took his pale hand.

"What's wrong, Dean?", Cas asked.

"When I'm gone...", Dean started but was cut off by Castiel.

"You aren't going anywhere", Cas said sternly.

"When I'm gone", Dean restated. "I don't want you to grieve over me"

"B-but...", Cas trailed off as tears began to roll down his cheekbones.

"Just forget, babe. Find someone else, someone who deserve you. I never did", Dean was crying as well. "Move on, start again. Pretend I was never part of your life. Pretend I never hurt you and we were just friends. Pretend that you...", Dean's frail body shook as he weeped. "Pretend that you don't love me"

Cas didn't say anything, he simply shook his head.

"But Dean...", once again he trailed off in sobs.

"I don't wanna hurt you, Cas. I love you but you need to forget about me. I don't want you to hurt", Dean stared into his husbands bright blue eyes.

"No, Dean. I c-could never", Cas sobbed.

"Please, Cas", Dean pleaded. "One last thing for me"p

"But D-Dean", Cas's body racked with sobs and stutters.

Dean grabbed Cas's hand tighter. "I need you to do this for me, babe"

Cas looked away, unable to face his husband.

"Don't ask why. Don't question, just forget, move on. Please for me"

There was a moment of silence, only the beeping of Dean's heart rate was heard.

"I thought that I'd been hurt before,
But no one's ever left me quite this sore.

Your words cut deeper than a knife
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life.

Got a feeling that I'm going under,
But I know that I'll make it out alive.

If I quit calling you my lover,
Move on.

You watch me bleed until I can't breathe,
Shaking,
Falling onto my knees,
And now that I'm without your kisses,
I'll be needing stitches.

Tripping over myself,
Aching,
Begging you to come help,
And now that I'm without your kisses,
I'll be needing stitches", Cas sang as Dean's heart rate slowed.

"Just like a moth drawn to a flame,
Oh,
You lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain.

Your bitter heart cold to the touch,
Now I'm gonna reap what I sow,
I'm left seeing red on my own.

Got a feeling that I'm going under,
But I know that I'll make it out alive,
If I quit calling you my lover,
Move on.

You watch me bleed until I can't breathe,
Shaking,
Falling onto my knees,
And now that I'm without your kisses,
I'll be needing stitches.

Tripping over myself,
Aching,
Begging you to come help,
And now that I'm without your kisses,
I'll be needing stitches", Castiel broke down sobbing, he lent his head on his husbands chest.

"Needle and the thread,
Gotta get you out of my head.

Needle and the thread,
Gonna wind up dead.

Needle and the thread,
Gotta get you out of my head, get you out of my head", Castiel continued quietly, the pain evident in his voice.

"And now that,
I'm without your kisses,
I'll be needing stitches.

And now that,
I'm without your kisses,
I'll be needing stitches", Cas stopped as the beeping just became an unforgettable constant noise. An unforgettable flatline.

"What if I don't want to?"

Phew, that one was sad.

I'm sorry. Truly, but ya can't have a rainbow without any rain. F.uk I love rainbows.

Oh and I skipped a few verses of 'Stitches by Shawn Mendes' sorry bout that...

Have a fantabulous time strawberries.
