The ticking of the wall clock grew louder as the night wore on. Midnight had come and long past.

Castiel held his shot glass at eye-level. Rainbows danced across the motel room.

Sam shot a sidelong glance at Dean. "How much has he had?"

Dean shrugged. "He commandeered the whole fifth of Jack."

The empty bottle rolled at Castiel's feet.

"You stayin'?" Dean asked the silence.

"No," Cas answered with finality. "We need more beer."
