Dean laughed and gently pushed at Merlin's head. He was ticklish, incredibly so, and his facial hair tickled against his stomach. Then his hands were at his sides and Dean squirmed for the same reasons. It would have been so sexy if he wasn't so damn ticklish.

"My teacher is tickling me," he pointed out between giggles. He didn't know what Merlin was trying to do, perhaps he just wanted to be playful. He might not be seducing Dean. He was a silly guy and he adored it when Merlin got a little goofy with him. "Which is just evil."

But Dean wasn't fighting against it. His fingers combed through Merlin's hair and he smiled down at him, amused and happy. It seemed like he would be worried for awhile or offended that Dean was nervous about the cards but clearly he was in a good mood now.
