Lillian Winchester stood by her father's coffin as they lowered it into the ground. All the 20 year old had left was a Hunter uncle and a naive angel.
"Come on Lily, we have a job." Dean Winchester came over and took his niece by her delicate arm, his green eyes moist with tears. They walked away, Castiel looking around, having neve been to a funeral before.
Dean, Lillian, and Cas stood next to a grave that was on fire. "I think that takes care of that, huh Lily?" He looked over but Lillian was over talking to Cas. Well, at least he finally had someone to talk to, Dean thought. "Come on! Cas, Lily, let's go!" Rolling his eyes, Dean walked back to his "baby", Castiel and Lillian trudging along behind.
They drove back to the motel they were staying at and each of them went into their rooms. It felt odd, Sam not being on the other twin bed in the room. It had already been 2 months since Sam was killed by a Wendigo, they had arrived too late and he was dead.
The next morning, Dean got up and bought two coffees and walked to Cas's room, the problem was, Cas didn't answer the door. When Dean kicked the door in, Cas wasn't even there. A little worried, he went over and took out the spare key he had gotten for Lillian's room.
Opening the door, he peeked in to see Lillian in her bed, with Cas behind her, his arms around her. He quickly shut the door. "I really wasn't expecting that." He shook his head and walked back to his room.
Later in the morning, Lillian and Cas walked into Dean's room. "Find another case yet Uncle Dean?"
Dean looked up to notice that Cas was closer to his niece than usual. "Yep, it's at a high school, a whole bunch of teachers are showing up dead. Hey Lily, wanna go get a coffee? I drank yours already." Lillian narrowed her eyes and left to go get a coffee, snagging the keys to the Impala on the way out.
Dean turned to Cas, who suddenly looked a bit sheepish. "So, did you sleep well last night Cas?"
Cas's blue eyes went wide in surprise. "I saw you look in Dean and it wasn't what it looked like."
Dean's eyes flashed. "Wasn't what it looked like! Cas, you were in bed with my niece!"
Castiel put his hands up and backed against the door. "We were talking last night and she fell asleep. I stayed, watching the shows you call Soap Operas? She started screaming and I went over and woke her up. She said she was having nightmares about the future and asked me to stay with her, I did."
Dean's eyes flew open. "Nightmares. Oh God, she must be taking after Sammy..."
Cas nodded. "Yes, plus how could I say no? She's a very pretty child."
Dean growled. "Child, exactly, and you're how old?"
"Well I do not plan on doing anything with her. I am an angel, you know that Dean." Castiel nodded and walked back to his room.
When Lillian came back they all piled into the Impala, Dean's baby, and drove towards Washington, they had never taken care of the Wendigo that killed Sam and they were going to now.
