The Supernatural Nursery
Chapter One: The Strange Angel in the Corner
Dean had never understood the strange angel who always sat in the corner of the nursery playing with a unicorn. The kid never got up to play with any of the other kids. His brothers tried to get him to play but he was too obsessed with that blue and white unicorn that he kept cuddling and petting. The boy had big blue eyes and messy dark hair, and he had this funny long coat that was a strange yellow colour. Beige? Maybe...? He was sure that that was what his mom called it. He had a funny name like the other angels. Casti...Cas...Casta...Cas. It was Cas.
Dean didn't like to see the little boy just sit there. They were the same age but Cas just looked so much smaller, and Dean wondered why didn't want to play with anyone. He looked to his little brother, Sam, who was playing with Ruby. Sam was three and Ruby was two, but Dean knew she was clever for a little kid. He worried a little about Sam.
Crowley was giving Gabriel paper flowers and Balthazar was reading a story to Anna. Michael, Lucifer, Raphael and Uriel were all play fighting, which Chuck and Becky, the nursery teachers, were trying to stop. Dean was determined to go and make Cas join in. He walked over to where the little boy was and carefully sat in front of him.
"Cas?" He said softly, watching the tiny angel look up at him with frightened eyes.
"H-Hello." He replied, returning to petting the unicorn's mane.
"You gotta come play." Dean said defiantly, "I wanna play cowboys and I need a partner!"
"N-no, thank you." Castiel said weakly with a small shiver, "I want to play with Peter."
"There's no Peter here!" Dean laughed, "Silly!"
"My unicorn." Castiel said, gasping as Dean grabbed his arm, "No!"
"Cas, Peter's no fun! You're coming to play!" He cried with a smile while taking the unicorn from the angel, hearing a shriek as Castiel just burst into tears, "Cas?"
Becky came over right at that moment and knelt down in front of the angel who was squealing and screaming with big fat tears rolling down his face. Dean was mortified and let go of Castiel's hand, watching the little boy reaching for the unicorn. Dean handed it straight back and watched Castiel bury his face in Becky's neck while she hushed him and rubbed his back, and immediately Gabriel and Balthazar were there with him, both glaring at the little hunter who then himself burst into tears. Becky watched Castiel as he stopped crying and stared at Dean, looking to Becky who ushered Castiel's brothers away.
"Dean, come here a second." Becky said softly, "I'd like you to listen to me, okay? Castiel is a very, very shy little boy, and he feels a little scared about just getting up and playing with all you other children, do you understand?"
Dean nodded and sniffled while she reached out and wiped his eyes with her thumb. He never meant to upset the little angel. He only wanted a friend to play with who wasn't mean or too small to do anything.
"And you took Peter away from him. Peter the Unicorn is Castiel's best friend." Becky explained in a gentle but firm voice, "How would you feel if someone took Pala from you? If someone just snatched him away like you took Peter?"
Pala was Dean's cuddly Impala, one that his mother had made specially for him because he liked Daddy's car so much. He knew exactly how he would feel if someone took Pala from him. He'd feel so upset he could be sick, kind of how he felt at that moment. And he looked to Becky with tears streaming down his face, hiccuping and sobbing as he moved closer to Castiel.
"I'm sorry!" He cried, "I'm real sorry, Cas! I didn't mean to make you cry! I didn't know you were just scared, honest! Honest, I didn't!"
He reached out with open arms and Becky watched the tiny angel in her arms sniffle and move towards Dean. The two little boys shared a hug and Castiel gently wiped Dean's tears. He took hold of the little hunter's hand and led him to the book corner, Becky following them to read them a story. They both sat on her knee, and Becky gave Dean Pala as they sat together to read the story.
"How are my little guys?" Mary asked as she arrived to pick up Sam and Dean, both of them squealing and running towards her, "Have you had a good day?"
"Mama! Wuby and I made a playhousie today!" Sam shrieked, while Dean looked up at his mother with shame in his eyes.
"I made someone cry." He said, sniffling as tears filled his beautiful green eyes, "I said sorry, and I made up with them."
"That's good, that you made up with them." Mary said, kneeling down before her upset five year old, "I'm proud of you."
Dean sniffled and cried into his mom's shoulder, and little Sam hugged him too, anything to make his big brother feel better. Mary picked Sam up, since his little legs were tired after a long day at the nursery and Dean held on to Pala and Mary's hand.
"Dean!"
Dean turned to see little Castiel running towards him, and the angel hugged him closely and kissed his head before running back to his brothers, all of them vanishing into thin air. Mary smiled down at her little boy, and the three began to make their way back home.
Dean couldn't wait to see Castiel the day after.
