"I love you too." He smiled and lied there, too tired and dizzy to get up.

"Is that enough exercise? Can we go skate on ice now?" Cas asked, looking up at Sorin.

Sorin panted, shaking his head slightly. He stood up with Cas in his arms and went inside. "I'm gonna take a quick shower before we go," he said as he set him down on the couch.

"Okay… be quick, though." Cas sat on the couch when Sorin went away, tapping his foot anxiously.

Sorin quickly cleaned off his body from all the sweat and the bits of dirt and grass that stuck to his hair. He dried himself off and threw on a pair of ripped jeans, simple tee and jean jacket.

Cas decided to go upstairs and get into some actual clothes. He wore a simple white shirt with a blue windbreaker and skinny jeans. His tail swayed behind him since he couldn't hide it in the jeans.

Sorin smiled at him. "You look cute," He picked him up and headed down the stairs.

Cas grinned back and let Sorin carry him. "How far away is the place?" He asked, curling his tail around Sorin's arm so it wouldn't be in the way.

"About a mile or two," Sorin grabbed his keys, wallet, and phone before he headed out the door. His wings extended out from his back then he flew.

"Why do we need keys if you're flying?" Cas asked, his eyes closed.

"So I can unlock our hou– crap, I forgot to lock it." He sighed deeply. "Oh well."

"Do you wanna go back?" Cas tentatively opened his eyes and glanced back at the house.

Sorin thought about it for bit before he nodded. He glided right back down and quickly locked it before he shot back up into the air.

Cas closed his eyes again and rested his head on Sorin's chest. Flying always made him a bit nervous, but he could manage it well enough.

Sorin narrowed his eyes as the wind blowing in his face was beginning to dry them out. He looked down and spotted the rink among the other tall buildings in the city, gliding down there slowly.

Cas looked around when they landed, hopping down to the ground. "So, this is the place?"

"Yeah." He ignored the occasional glares they received as they walked in, but what really made him feel uneasy was the group of guys who eyed them with such acidity and disdain. He pulled Cas toward him.

Cas didn't think anything of it and went up to the desk. He stood on his toes so as to appear taller while he gave the employee his shoe size.

Sorin grabbed his own pair and payed for them. One of his favorite things about this place was that they gave free mittens and hats, which aren't used of course. He slipped the mittens on Cas's hands and made sure the hat covered his ears before he put on his own.

Cas pulled on his skates and stood up shakily, holding his arms out to both sides to balance himself. "This seems unsafe."

He put on his skates and quickly placed his hands on the sides of his waist to keep him from toppling over. "It's perfectly safe."

"Alright…" Cas carefully made his way to the rink itself with Sorin. He tentatively put one foot onto the ice and yanked it back when he started sliding.

Sorin wrapped an arm around his waist and pulled him closer to him as he walked onto the ice. "I got you."

Cas stood with his feet turned in to stop himself from moving and to try and keep his balance. "How… how do I not fall?"

Carefully, he held his hands. "You glide on the ice, like this," Sorin began moving his feet backwards and slid, gripping Cas's hand tightly so he wouldn't fall. "And when you want to stop," he stuck out one foot sideways, pushing out some frost.

Cas's heart pounded in his throat and his tail puffed up. He still seemed afraid to move, even though Sorin was holding him.

"Now you try. Slide your feet bit by bit."

Cas tried and scrambled on the ice, gripping Sorin's hands tightly.

Sorin chuckled and pulled him upright. "Good try, but I believe you can do it."

"Funnily enough, I don't." Cas huffed, slowly dragging one skate across the ice.
