// Dean's POV

"Found you. . ." Cas whispered into his hair.
Dean smiled and nuzzled his face further into his chest.

Then Cas abruptly pulled away from Dean, his hands placed firmly on his shoulders.

"How the hell did you get here?!" He asked, his eyes filled with worry.

"I-- uh...well I...I ran..." Dean said looking down at his feet.

"Why were you running? You left before school was over and-- dammit." Cas started cursing under his breath as he looked away. Dean quickly looked back up at him in confusion.

"Cas-- "

"It was Alastair, wasn't it?" Cas asked, facing Dean again, this time his eyes were filled with anger.

Dean looked back down and slowly nodded. Castiel growled and pulled away from Dean.

"I'm gonna rip his lungs out!" He yelled at no one in particular.

"Cas!"

"What?!" Cas asked, facing him. Dean jumped back a bit.

"He...he didn't do anything to me. I just saw him and didn't want any trouble so I ran..."

Cas' face softened and he pulled Dean into another hug.

"Okay..."

Dean slowly nodded and sighed.

"Okay."

Cas chuckled and spun him around.

"Would you look at that. We did a thing!"
Dean also laughed and pulled away from him.

"Can I see Sam now?" He asked, grabbing Castiel's hand. Cas looked down at their hands and smiled fondly.

"Of course." He smiled before kissing Dean's cheek and dragging him back to Cas' house.

+++++

"Dean!" Sam yelled as his older brother walked into the Novak residence. Dean ran up to him and brought him into a tight hug.

"Hey Sammy."

Cas smiled behind them and looked over at Gabriel.

He was sitting, crossed legged on the floor, slowly falling asleep. His eyes would slowly close and he would fall forward but jerk awake just in time before he hit the ground.

Cas laughed and walked over to him.

"I'll send this hot potato to bed and get back to you." He said as he picked up Gabriel and walked away.

"Where were you?" Sam asked.

"Oh! I had to stay after school for something, okay?" He asked poking Sam's nose. Sam nodded and ran over to sit on the couch.

Dean followed him and sighed.

Then his phone started ringing. He quickly took it out of his pocket and checked the caller ID.

His eyes widened when he saw who it was. It couldn't be. Not now. He couldn't find them.

Dean quickly rejected the call and ran his hands through his hair.

Cas came back down to the living room and his smile faded when he saw Dean.

"Dean? What's wrong?" He asked, quickly walking up to him.

Dean wouldn't answer. He just stood there. His hand covering his mouth as he sorta blacked out.

"Dean?" Cas asked waving a hand in front of his eyes. Dean quickly shook his head and turned to Cas, uncovering his mouth.

"Huh? What?"

"You okay there, Dean? You kinda dozed off for a while."

Dean slowly nodded.

"Y-yea. Yea I'm fine. I should be going now." He said looking over at Sam, who was also falling asleep.

"You sure-- "

"Yes. Good night Castiel." He said as he woke up Sam and took him to the Impala.

"Night..." Cas whispered.

Dean drove them to their home, hoping everything would be okay. Sam had fallen asleep by the time they arrived, so Dean had to carry him into the house.

Slowly opening the door, he quietly stepped inside, hoping he wasn't in here.
To his relief, no one else was in the house but them. He walked into Sam's room and set his little brother into his bed. Sam quickly tangled himself in the blankets and fell asleep completely.

He walked back into the living room and slipped his jacket off, throwing it aside onto the couch.

Dean sighed and jumped onto the couch, a rattling sound coming from his pocket.
He narrowed his eyes and pulled the object out.

Castiel's pack of cigarettes.

Dean slowly got up and threw them into the bin. There was no need for those anymore. Cas never even really used them so he didn't really need them at all.

He walked back into the living room and began browsing through channels.

And then his phone was ringing again. Dean checked it.

The same number he dreaded to see. He quickly rejected the call and tossed the phone aside, but as soon as he did, he received another call.

Frustrated Dean grabbed the phone, ready to answer and yell at the person on the other line but it was someone else this time.

This time, it was Cas.

Dean took in a deep breath and answered the phone.

"Hello?" He asked patiently.

"Dean! Hi. . .I was just you know-- checking. Uh-- making sure you were okay." They could both hear how much Cas was struggling to say that. Dean smiled and relaxed.

"At least I have your number now." Cas added.

"I guess you do." Dean smiled. There was silence between the two boys, and Dean was just about to say something when there was a knock at the door. Dean ignored it, he wasn't in the mood for anyone showing up at his house right at the moment.

But then they knocked again. This time harder. It was still quiet on the other side of the line, as if

Cas was waiting for Dean to speak first.

"H-hold on Cas. . .someone's knocking on the door."

"Uh-- okay. . .that's fine. . .I'll just. . .wait here then."

Dean walked over to the door and opened it, not really paying any close attention.

"You have a phone for a reason, don't you?" A voice stated firmly through his ears. Dean quickly looked up, full focus on the man and gasped.

No...

This could not be happening.

"Dad..." he whispered.

"Hey, son."

John Winchester had found them. He looked tired but he was smiling. . .but Dean could see anger in his eyes. There was no escaping him this time.
