Summary
They only ever touch like this when the end is looming over them. There’s something about trepidation that makes them daring enough to step on that invisible line, but not to cross. To dip their toes in the water, but never to enter.

Summary
Takes place immediately after Episode 14x8 (Byzantium), after Castiel makes the Deal with the Empty. Castiel and Dean have had a long, undefined physical relationship that is more to both of them than they'll let themselves say. But in the wake of Castiel's deal he's hesitant about being with Dean, because he's afraid any moment of happiness will drag him away into the void - but Dean has no idea, and is left struggling with why Castiel seems so distant from him.
Title comes from Dean's line in 14x9 (The Spear): "We got -- We got Jack back. When was the last time we had a big, no-strings-attached win like that? "
(Part of a series that explores a "between canon" relationship between Dean and Castiel)
