The air in the bedroom felt dense, choked with everything left unspoken. you lay motionless on the bed, gaze locked on the ceiling, a thin veneer of calm over a churn of dread. The door eased open with a soft click. Castiel stood framed in the dim light, his beige coat a worn, familiar shape in the gloom.
