sastiel + after rescuing sam from the cage a 2nd time

When Castiel rescues Sam Winchester for the second time, the human’s soul and body are not physically destroyed as they had been previously. He is pale and shaking, but relatively unharmed.

His mind, however, is probably a different story.

“Tell me your name,” Castiel says softly, holding Sam close, arms wrapped tightly around him.

“Sam Winchester,” he replies, his voice wobbly. “My name is Sam Winchester.” He buries his face into Castiel’s chest.

“Did he hurt you?” 

“No,” Sam whispers. “He didn’t touch me. He barely talked to me. I’m still –” His breath hitches.

“Scared?”

Sam’s voice breaks on a sob. “Yes.”

“Shh,” Castiel murmurs. “You’re out. You are safe, Sam.”
