It was 9:00 P.M on the 4th of July. You were in a soccer field with your family and you were all waiting for the fireworks to start. Your little cousins were getting impatient.

"(Y/n)!! When are the fireworks gonna start?!" One desperately asked. "I dunno. Probably about another hour, we'll just have to wait and see." You ruffled her hair and pulled out a glowstick for her from a pack you'd bought earlier that day. She happily took it and started running around and waving it. Your other little cousin began getting jealous.

"I want one too!!!" He shouted. "Alright, (y/c/n), alright." Laughing, you grabbed another and handed it to him. He joined his sister and you decided to join them too. You got a glowstick and then started playing with them.

After a good 15 minutes, you noticed two small figures approaching you. Once they got closer, you saw it was a boy and girl. They looked to be around the same age as your little cousins. It was too dark to see their faces that well, even with your glowstick.

"Hey guys what're yall doing out here by yourself?"
The oldest child, the boy, spoke. "We saw your glowsticks and we wanted to come and play." "Yeah!!" The youngest child, the girl, yelled as she jumped up and down excitedly.

"Well okay. I don't see why not." You smiled. "What're your names?"

The boy spoke again. "My name's West and this is my little sister Maison!" You almost choked. "Uh I-I'm sorry I didn't hear you what are your names...?"

"I said I'm West and this is my sister Maison." West repeated.
"O-oh I like those names uhm... would- would your last name happen to be Collins by any chance..?"

"Yeah! You like my dad's show don't you?" He innocently asked as he'd just noticed the Castiel shirt you were wearing. "Like it..?" you barely whispered as you chuckled a bit. "I LOVE it!! It's my favorite show and your dad plays my favorite character!!! And where is your dad anyways?"

"Oh he's over there looking for us." West pointed and Maison laughed, amused at the fact that Misha was nowhere near finding them. You nodded, trying your best not to absolutely freak. Misha Collins was literally right over there, FEET from you.

You tried calming down. "Hey if you guys want some glowsticks just go over there to that blanket and ask one of those people for a couple of them. That's my family." You pointed in the direction you were telling them about and motioned for them to go.
"Okay thank you!" West blurted as he started for the blanket. "Tank you!" Maison called out after running towards her brother.

You giggled as you watched them go, then you turned to look in the direction that Misha was in. He must've noticed the children taking off for the blanket because he was starting to walk your way. Your heart skipped a beat as he grew closer and closer to you.

He soon reached you and rather than going straight for his children he stopped. He'd seen your shirt. "So you like Supernatural huh?" You stared up at him. "Y-yeah I really do." A light blush settled on your face.

Misha laughed. "I'm sorry please excuse my awful manners. I'm Misha but I think you already knew that. And you are?"

"H-h-hi Misha..." you were in shock. "I'm uh- I'm (y/n). It's nice to meet you uhm in person I mean." You plastered on the best smile you could without looking shocked and he reached his hand out for you to shake. You shook it immidiately and he could tell you were nervous.

"It's alright (y/n), I know a lot of my fans are pretty shocked and nervous when they first meet me but you don't need to be. I won't bite, I promise." He gave you a huge smile and then you just couldn't resist it.

"Could I just-.." you fell forward into him and hugged him tight. He embraced you without hesitation. "Mish, I've always wanted to meet you!! This is so amazing!"

He patted your head. "So are we friends now or what?"
You couldn't believe what he just said. "Uh-uh... yeah! Yeah I guess we are I mean if that's okay-"
Misha cut you off. "Course it's okay! It's more than okay!! I love making new friends and you seem pretty awesome." He booped your nose. Misha was just as adorable as you'd expected him to be.

You smiled. "Oh and I guess you'll want your kids back." You pointed to the blanket where they'd gotten their glowsticks.
"Ahh yes the little rascals always getting into trouble." He laughed. "West! Maison!! C'mon we gotta go back to our spot now! Mommy's been abandoned and the fireworks are about to start!"

They groaned, "but daaaaaddd!!"

Intervening, you made a suggestion. "Mmm you guys could watch the fireworks with us if you want to... I mean you don't have to just thought I'd yaknow..." you tapped your forefingers together as Misha thought about it.

"(Y/n)." Mish started finally. "I think that is the best idea I've ever heard!" He quickly ran off in the direction of his wife and called out to her. "Vicki!! Come on we're moving over here!" You chuckled at him as he ran off, then you walked over to tell West and Maison about what was gonna happen. They were absolutely ecstatic.

"Hey mom when are the fireworks supposed to start?"
"About 5 minutes."
"Okay perfect!!" You almost jumped but caught yourself on your tiptoes.
"Why what is it?" She couldn't help but smile.
"Because I just met MISHA COLLINS AND HE'S COMING OVER HERE TO WATCH FIREWORKS WITH US!!!"
"Shut UP!" Your mom shouted.
"No seriously no joke!!!" You glanced over your shoulder and saw Misha and Vicki heading toward you. "And didn't you know that's West and Maison?!" You pointed to the two children sitting next to your cousins.
"What! Really?!"
"Yes!!!"

Misha and Vicki finally made it over and sat their blanket down next to yours. "Misha, Vicki, this is mom, this is my granny, this is my aunt and uncle, and these are my little cousins." Misha and Vicki smiled and introduced themselves, as did West and Maison now that your family knew who they were.

"It's nice to meet you all." Misha made the most adorable face and tilted his head to the side as he wore a big smile.

"Nice to meet you too Misha." Your mom said. "We're huge fans of your show, as I'm sure you've already figured out."
"Ah yes (y/n)'s told me this and of course the Cas shirt." He chuckled as he glanced at it again.

You smiled and suddenly there was a flash of light and a loud boom. You all looked up as the fireworks began. "Woah!" The next one exploded into gold sparkles and showered down like a waterfall.

As each firework exploded everyone's eyes lit up with the flashes of exploding gunpowder.
Everybody had the light but one person had it more than anyone else.

Misha. His bright blue eyes shone even more brilliantly with the firework explosions. His eyes, his smile, even his soul, was bright with the celebration of July 4th.
