One thing that Dean noticed about you was that you cared for others more than yourself. It was... odd in his opinion.
He didn't think caring for others was a big deal.
That was until he realized he had fallen for you.
He didn't realize it at first. He isn't the type of person you'd think could love. He was often cold and heartless. The only person he was protective of in the Natruals program was Lia and that's only because they have a sibling bond.
Dean found himself watching everything you did. You'd read, you'd clean, you'd cook. Sometimes you wouldn't eat, which made his heart ache for a reason he couldn't explain.
After his evening workout, he went into the kitchen, looking for a snack. Dean walked in without realizing you were cooking dinner. "Oh," he paused, giving him a chance to lean on the counter. "I didn't think anyone was in here." It sounded like there could've been an apology, but he didn't add one.
