Eliot gave Dean another nudge to show that he was more hungry than patient, but then left the man to cook his steak while he dipped his head to the bowl of water. It was rather nice how Dean cared about him and hadn't just outright treated him like the beast he was, and Eliot showed his appreciation by leaning up against the the other man when he came back from the fridge.

He didn't know if he would act anything remotely like this around any other should he have changed before them, but he knew without a doubt now that he wouldn't harm Dean. It was a relief to finally know there was someone he could relax with.
