Dean gets a glare and an abortive splash to his face and then Castiel's face breaks off into a smile.
"Dean... This is a happy memory for you." It's not a question.
He swims closer, difficult as that is with his huge coat. They're alone here, away from friends and enemies alike--away from Heaven and Hell.
Backing Dean towards the dock, he's almost overwhelmed with the thought that even if he hadn't been in this dream, Dean's happy dream is related to him and he might have been here as part of the dream, anyway. That's what he means to Dean and that thought amazes him.
He keeps moving in until Dean's back brushes the edge of the dock and he reaches up to hold part of it next to Dean's head.
It would be so easy to lean in and finish that other dream.
So easy.
But it's not what Dean would want and this dream is about him, so at the last minute, Castiel grabs Dean's shoulder and pushes him under before kicking off the dock and swimming away.
