He doesn't understand the meaning of 'quickly', not in the terms that humans do, not in the way that Dean does. Castiel is ageless, genderless, and eternal; an Angel of the Lord. If he wished, he could remain motionless for a century, and then in a blink of an eye, be gone. There is no boredom, not for Castiel, who watches for millennia, and observes the behavior of the short lives of humanity. He is young, to his kind, but not impatient.
When Dean finally gathers the courage to press himself further into Castiel's awareness, to draw closer to the angel-cloaked-in-man, he thinks something like so much time wasted while I quietly girled out over you. Castiel only turns his gaze, almost smiling fondly, and says to him, it was not so long for me. I was prepared to wait longer.
Years, months, days... For Castiel these measurements are indistinct, only a brief flutter in his personal sense of time.
