Chapter 1: Life Begins Now
"Dean... It hurts."
"Shhh, Cas. It's alright"
Dean was sitting cross-legged at the top of the bed in one of the spear rooms on the second floor of Bobby's House. His angel was laying on him, head resting on the hunter's chest. Castiels face was scrunched up in pain, his breath coming in uneven pants and his hair plastid to his face with sweat. Dean ran his hand soothingly though the angel's hair, as the pain lessened for the time being.
"Dean..." said Cas as he tilted his head to make eye contact with the hunter.
"S'OK, Cas. You shouldn't talk" Dean Said still running his hand though Cas' hair.
"I'm sorry" Cas sobbed breaking eye contact with Dean to sob into his shirt.
"You have nothing t..."
"I shou... Should. Have. Known. Better." Cas said between Pants, as another wave of pain washed over him. "it's... My fault. My fault."
Dean bent down and placed a Kiss the top of the angels head.
"Come on Cas, That's not true" Dean said, "It takes two to tango... Well, in this case, make an egg."
An Egg. Cas was in the middle of delivering an egg. Laying? Whatever. Dean was still trying to get his head around it. The one thing that he knew for certain at this point was that it wasn't the angels fault. At least not entirely. Sure, maybe Cas should have known better, Maybe he should have known more about angel biology and then maybe; Maybe, they wouldn't be in the situation. But then again, Dean had had a hand to play in the events that have been transpiring the last few months. After all, Dean had made the first move, which had led to the start of a relationship, which had then led to sex, which had led to Cas getting pregnant, which had led to some awkward conversations with Sam and Bobby, and then finally the 2 months of cravings and morning sickness while the egg grew inside him. Sam had been fascinated by the whole thing, Bobby just mumbled about the level of weirdness, Cas was afraid, and Dean; well Dean was about two minutes away from just falling apart. But he had stayed strong though all of this, for Cas. For his angel
"Dean..." Cas said once more, Tears Streaming down his face and damping Deans T-shirt.
"S'all Right" Dean said in the most soothing voice he could mange. "Tell me what you need. I'll get it for you"
"I need... I Don't..." Cas Look So afraid, it hurt Dean so much not being able to help him
"Cas, it's alright. It's going to be fine."
"Dean... I'm... I need... t... to Push... its coming" Cas was breathing Quite rapidly now, his chest rising and falling quickly and unevenly. And dean found himself wishing, for not the first time, that they weren't alone.
Bobby and Sam had left yesterday morning to go clean out a nest of vamps in the next state over. Dean had opted to stay with Cas, even though the egg wasn't meant to come for another week or so. The egg on the other hand, had decided it wanted to come early. At about one in the morning Cas had gone into labour, an hour Later Dean was on the phone with Sam, him and Bobby called in some other hunters and stated the long ride home. Even if they when 100 miles an hour, It would still take the 6 hours to get back. It was now six in the morning and Sam and Bobby would still be at least another hour.
"Cas" Dean said a little panicked, "Can't you just... I don't know, Hold on a little longer, till Sammy and Bobby get back, they can help"
"I... I can't... Dean... I need to..."
"Push. I know. I know. I... Ok... Ok... It'll be fine, just relax for a minute."
Dean Lifted Cas Of his legs and placed some pillows behind Cas for the angel to lean back on before the hunter Re positioned himself down the bottom of the bed, in between Castiels legs. Dean to a few deep breaths, willing himself to calm down.
"Cas... I don't... I have... fuck... Cas, I don't know what I'm doing. I need you to tell me."
"The... the Egg... Dean... Can... can you see it?" Cas said as he tried to steady out his breathing.
Dean took another deep breath and Looked between his lovers' legs, and it took every bit of will power he had not to pass out. More deep breaths. He had to stay up right, for Cas. He couldn't let the angel do this by himself.
"Cas... there's a lot of blood..." Dean said, raising his eyes to meet Cas'. The angels' eyes showed that he already knew that, and that he was more concerned with the Egg. "Uh..." Dean added as he let his eyes fall back down. "I can see..." Dean swallowed, "I can see the top of the egg"
Dean really had no idea what he was doing. Sam had been doing all the research on childbirth, he was meant to be doing this part, and Dean was meant to be up the other end whispering soothing things in his angels ear, stroking his hair, kissing him, comforting him. Not sitting between his legs watching him push an egg the size of a watermelon out of a whole the size of a lemon.
Dean placed the some towels around Cas, In case he dropped the egg (the bed was soft, but dean wasn't taking any chances.)
"Ok. Cas, you can push now."
It took longer than Dean thought it would, but, 10 minutes later, and a few moments of cleaning, Dean was holding the most beautiful egg he had ever seen. It was the smoothest thing Dean had ever touched, and seemed to have a dim golden glow to it. Dean couldn't quit tell what colour the shell was, it seemed to shift to between a royal blue, a dark purple, and a pink. Dean rapped the egg in a bundle of blankets, placed it in the bassinet that they had out up earlier, and turned on the heat lamp to keep it warm. Making sure the egg was nice and warm; He turned his attention back to Castiel.
The Angel was still lying on the bed and looked like hell. His skin was an awful greyish colour, and was shining with sweat, but, to dean's relief, Castiel cheats was rising and falling in a steady rhythm. They had talk earlier about the possibility of Cas not surviving the delivery of the egg, and Dean had been really worried about the possibility of losing Cas, and having to raise their child alone. The bed sheets Cas was lying on were soaked with blood, sweat, and tears. Dean when over to the bed and leaned over his angel. Cas looked even worst up close.
"Cas..." Dean said.
"De..." Was all the angel could manage to say, it was so quite dean almost didn't hear.
"Shhh, Don't talk. The eggs fine. I'll keep it warm. But... But right now I need to take care of you Ok?" the angel gave him a weak smile in response. "I ran you a bath, I think it's better you have a bath rather than a shower, because I seriously doubt you could stand up, Come on" with an effort Cas put his arms around Dean's neck and Dean lifted the angel of the bed and carried him down the hall to the bathroom, Bridal style.
Once Cas was soaking in the tub, Dean headed down stairs to get some clean sheets and blankets. When he got back up to the room he decide to toss the ones, they were stained and he didn't see the point in trying to save them (he made a mental note to buy Bobby some new ones). Dean had just flipped the matrass over, when his Phone rang. He looked at the Caller id and answers the phone.
"Hey Sammy."
"Hey Dean." Sam said, Dean noticed he sounded worried. "uh listen, Dean, The Impala blew a tire. We're gonna be at least two more hours."
"S'OK Sammy, Cas had the... He had the egg. About half an hour ago. He's in the tub now, cleaning off." Dean Said, As he walked over to the bassinet to check on the egg. "And the egg is in the bassinet, Keeping warm. It's perfectly fine."
"Oh thank god. How's Cas?"
"He's extremely tired, and he looks like hell. But I'm sure any guy would after pushing a watermelon out his Ass."
"Yeah, I'm sure you would." Dean heard Bobby in the background yelling Balls and Sam, ya Idjit, get of the bloody phone and help me. "Uh, Dean, gotta go, ah, take care of Cas and that Egg"
"Yeah I will, and Sam?"
"Yeah?"
"If my car doesn't get back here in one piece, I will kill you." Sam hung up the phone.
Dean put the new sheets on the bed. He changed the pillow cases and set the bed out the way he knew Cas liked it, but with extra blankets, he wanted to make sure his angel stayed warm. Dean grabbed a pair of sweat pants and an old long sleeve shirt and headed down the hall to Get Cas out of the bath.
Drying Cas and getting him into the clothes proved to be rather difficult. For starters Cas was pretty much dead on his feet, and he could hardly stand up right. But eventually Cas was dressed and Dean carried him back their room, and put him to bed, the angel was asleep before dean had finished pulling the blankets around him. A quick Check of the egg and a readjustment of the heat lamp, and he crawled into bed next to his angel. He looked up at the clock, nine in the morning and Dean was exhausted, Sam and bobby wouldn't be back for an hour or so, Dean figured he could catch a bit of shut eye. He looked over at Cas, his angel looked calm, still a bit pale, but he looked peaceful after the last few hours of pain. Dean smiled. His last thought before he drifted off was: Man, our lives are messed up. And, he was ok with that.
~ Qué será, será ~
After Sam told Bobby everything was fine at home, the atmosphere in Car became a lot less tense. The original plan was to drive flat out all the way home, but that had resulted in the impala blowing a tire. Once the tire was replace, and the need to get home so fast gone, they Pulled into a diner to get some breakfast.
While bobby was finishing up his bacon, Sam Stepped out of the dinner to use the bathroom (they were located around the back of the diner). He had just rounded the corner when he came face to face with an angel.
"Gabriel."
"'Sup Sam" The trickster said with a smirk.
"What do you want?" Sam said unkindly. He was still pissed at him for Killing Dean over 100 times.
"Oh, nothing much. Just a here to give you a warning and a little friendly chat about the weather" he looked up at the sky, "Do you think it's gonna rain?"
"Warning about what?"
"I think it's going to rain"
"Gabriel!"
The Archangel looked back at Sam. He studied his face for a moment and he sighed,
"What warning?"
Gabriel looked out over the parking lot as he spoke. "You need to protect her, Sam. She's important."
"What the heck are you talking about?" Sam had no idea what Gabriel was on about; he was being a cryptic as Cas had been when they first met him. And that just wasn't Gabriel's style. "Who is 'She' and what does she need to be protected from?"
Gabriel Place his hand on Sams shoulder, His golden Eyes locked on Sams green ones.
"You have to protect her. She's Important. Everyone's after her." He took his hand off Sams shoulder; the hunter gave the angel a puzzled look.
"Sam? Whatcha do? fall in?" Sam looked over his shoulder to see Bobby come round the corner. "Come on Boy, we gotta get going"
Sam turned around to find that the Archangel was gone. Freaking Angels.
"You All right Sam?"
"Yeah... it's just..." Sam thought about telling Bobby, but he didn't want to worry him, for all he knew the angel was just playing one of his pranks. "It's nothing. Let's go"
~ Qué será, será ~
Sleep was harder to hold on to then Dean had thought it would be, He only managed to get about half an hour of shut eye. He was exhausted, and a little cranky, but he couldn't go back to sleep, He was too worried about Cas to do much more then sit on the bed and watch his Angel Sleep. Cas had been sound asleep for an hour; he was still looking pale, had a slight temperature, and was sweating. Dean was really worried about him.
Cas had explained a few weeks ago that when an angel has an egg, the Nestling inside the egg takes a bit of that angels' grace, If the angel is strong enough, then they will be fine, and be back to full power within a day or so. But if the angel isn't strong enough it could take up to a month for them to be back to full power, and if the angel is weak enough, they could die.
Cas Fell. A fallen Angel cut of form much a heavens power. Dean didn't know if there was a weaker angel you could find to have an egg. Cas himself said he had ha 30% chance of surviving the birth. And he had done that, He had had the egg, and survived it. Now he just had to make it thought the next few days while his angle mojo re-charged.
Dean heard the familiar rumberling of the Impala pulling into the driveway. Dean got of the bed careful not to disturb the angel, and walked down the hall and down the stairs just in time to see Bobby come thought the front door.
"Bobby" Dean said with a smile, as he greeted the older hunter with a hug. "where's Sam?"
"Asleep, in the front seat. Been that was for about half an hour." Bobby Said as he put his bag down in the hall way.
"Well" Began Dean, "I think I'll go wake sleeping beauty."
~ Qué será, será ~
Sam was back at Bobby's house, and he was dreaming. Sam Knew he was dreaming because everything seemed foggy, he walked to the kitchen doorway and found Dean and Castiel sitting at the table. The first thing Sam found strange was he couldn't hear what they were saying. It was like listening thought water, the sound was all distorted.
Then from the door to Bobby's study was opened and though it walked a little girl. She had long waist length curly hair that seemed to be mixture of blonde and light and dark brown. Her back was to Sam so he couldn't see her face. She seemed to be talking to Dean about something; Cas was smiling sweetly at her, he place a Hand lovingly on Deans Shoulder. Dean looked at Sam, actually Dean looked though Sam. Sam assumed the little girl had asked for something and it must have been in the hall. And the little girl turned and looked at Sam.
The first thing Sam noticed was she was the most beautiful Child he had ever seen. The second thing he noticed was Her eyes, the left one was Blue and the right one was green. The third thing Sam notice was she was looking at him. Actually looking at him. Her eyes held his for a few moments, before her lips began to move. But like Dean and Cas, Sam couldn't what she was saying.
"I... I can't hear you" Sam Told her shaking his head; he had no idea if she even hear him.
The little girl seemed to get that he couldn't understand her. She put her head to one side and wore a perplexed look on her face. Sam couldn't put his finger on it but there was something familiar about that look.
And then, she smiled.
