Chapter 1
Dean and Sam are in a motel room both tired after hunting. They're just sitting in their beds silent.
Dean: So….wanna go out for a beer or something?
Sam: I am not in the mood…
Dean: Come on, Sam! Why?
Sam (yells): Because I don't want to!
Dean: Ok! I am going alone then! May I?
Sam: Are you going alone?
Dean: Just said I am.
Sam: I mean, why don't you tell Cas to come?
Dean: Maybe I will. See you!
Dean leaves the room and Sam grabs a beer and turns the TV on. Dean walks to his car, calls Cas…Some minutes later they are both in a bar.
Dean: Now, it's mohito's time!
Castiel: What?
Dean: You've tasted beer, now you have to try mohito too. It's a drink.
Castiel: Why?
Dean: What do you mean why? You've got to learn to live, pal! You should learn to watch movies, to listen to music and stuff. I mean what will you do when we win?
Castiel: Do you really think that we can win?
Dean: Maybe not, but we can have some fun before the final battle, can't we?
Castiel: Yes, why not?
Dean: Great!
Castiel: How is it going? You and your brother?
Dean (sigh): I am not sure…Good, I guess. Not perfect, but I don't expect to be that way so…We were never perfect and we'll never be. And maybe that's ok. I mean who has a good relationship with his brother, right?
Castiel: Do you want to fix it, Dean?
Dean: What?
Castiel: Are you sure that you want to live as you used to? You were happy back then?
Dean: Happy? Definitely not. I realized that I just thought I was happy with my family, and this eventually became my fake reality. But for now, I have to stay with Sam. It's not the right time to get the things completely clear. It doesn't matter if I am happy or not right now…
Castiel: If I drink the mohito, you'll be happier?
Dean laughs and points to the waitress to come over.
Dean: Yeah! That was the dream of my life. You drinking a mohito!
Waitress (flirting-looking both of them): What can I do for you boys?
Dean (flirting back): It depends…What do you want?
Waitress: I can get you a drink. And just to know, I finish work in one hour…
Dean (grins): Useful information. Can you bring us two mohitos, for now…Just for…you know... Find an excuse to stay here that long.
Waitress smiles and leaves
Dean: And this is how we flert, my friend! You should learn that to. Oh, God, I have to teach you so many things! Oh, by the way, can you do me a favor?
Castiel: What is it?
Dean: Can you drop by a restaurant and get me some food please?
Castiel: Yes. Where is it?
Dean: In Switzerland…
Castiel: What?
Dean: I just wanna get some chocolates. Come on! Please, please!Pleaseee!
Castiel: Ok. But not now.
Dean: Thank you! Oh, by the way….I did some research about archangels and all the angelic ranks. And I found out an angel who is supposed to be like a messenger...He's name is Ramuel….He's definitely with the angel's side, but he may know where Lucifer is. And….I want to find Lucifer you know…So….Do you understand what I want to say?
Castiel: Are you in sane? Find another angel is just out of logic. But trapping him to tell us where your killer may be? That's totally insane1
Dean: Well look…If Lucifer wanted me dead he would have done already. I mean if he wanted me dead now. Besides we may kill him first…
Castiel: With what? Stardust?
Dean grins.
Dean: Wow! You finally learned something from me. Irony! Wow! And it was really good. I am so proud of you!
Castiel: Dean, I am serious. Colt didn't work so we have nothing to fight him. And I am sure that if he meets you he may try to finish you now. Just because you are getting in his way. And I am not going to let you do something so irrational!
Dean: So thank God that I didn't ask for your permission!
Castiel gives his friend an angry look.
Dean: But I need you help though. (Castiel is about to answer but Dean cuts him off) We just talk to the angel, and then we decide what we'll do with the info. Ok? Please….
Castiel: Ok….But we are not going to Lucifer…
Dean: Yeah whatever.
Castiel: What can I do?
Dean: I don't know yet. I just wanted to make sure that you're with me in that..
MEANWHILE AT THE MOTEL
Someone knocks the door. Sam opens. He sees nobody. When he turns around he sees a brunette girl.
Girl: Hello Sam.
Sam runs to take the knife but she pulls him in the wall
Girl: Tsk, tsk tsk! Can't we have a peaceful conversation, here?
Sam: Who are you and what do you want?
Girl: My name is Miranda, and I want to tell some things. About your brother.
Sam: What about him?
Miranda: Do you know why he changed his mind and called you back?
Sam: How do you know that?
Miranda: We know a lot of things, darling! You would be surprised if you knew how much we know. Anyway… Zachariah, wanted to persuade Dean to say yes, so he transfered him to future. To 2014. And guess what happens then! The end of the world. And according to the angels, who'll cause that?
Sam : Lucifer.
Miranda: Atta boy! And you know that Lucifer can't do that in his present vessel, don't you?
Sam gasps. As the phone rings, Miranda disappears.
Sam: Hello.
Dean: I'll be late, ok? I met a girl and-
Sam: No. Dean come over here. We need to talk.
Dean: We'll talk later, Sam!
Sam: It's very important Dean! It can't wait!
Dean: Yes it can! For 2 hours.
Sam: Do what I say for once in your life and come here to talk. NOW!
Sam hangs up the phone.
In the bar, Dean drops his phone in the table angrily and he starts to mumble.
Waitress: What happened?
Dean: I am sorry, but I have to go! My stupid brother…
Waitress: I understand. I have an annoying sister too. And wanna know a trick? If you just can't have another fight with him, when you are about to yell, just close your eyes and take a deep breath. If you are about to punch him, just take that breath and walk away for a while. And if you are about to kill him think that patience is a virtue and that murderer is punished with 25 years or life in prison, and walk away…
Dean (laughs): Ok, very helpful thanks! I am Dean by the way!
Waitress: Katie. If tomorrow you are free and out of prison…
Dean (laughs): Tomorrow it is!
Dean and Cas go out of the bar.
Dean: Well I am going back to the fucking motel…
Castiel: Calm down, Dean.
Dean: You calm down! (takes a deep breath) You are right.
Castiel: I'll keep in touch.
Dean gets in the motel room. It's dark. Dean goes to put his bag in his bed. Then the light opens.
Dean : Holy…
He sees Sam sitting in the armchair.
Dean: Why are you sitting there in the dark like a freaking psycho?
Sam: Why did you call me back, Dean?
Dean: When?
Sam: When we were on separate "vacations"!
Dean (turns around): Hmm….I've changed my mind. Why-
Sam: You called me and you are here because you are afraid of me.
Dean: What? No!
Sam: You are Dean. You are afraid of what I might become.
Dean: No.
Sam: Look me in the eyes and tell me I am wrong.
Dean looks down
Sam: How dare to say to me not to hide things from you, when you are a fucking liar, ha?
Dean: I didn't want to scare you, Sam! I am sorry.
Sam: Oh, it's all better now. Anyway. Let's not have a fight right now.
Dean: Then why did you tell me to come here?
Sam (pause for a minute like thinking what he'll say): I think that I can't trust you either….
Dean: What?
Sam: I didn't before…That was one of the reasons why I chose Ruby!
Dean (yelling): What? Why? Even Cas trusted me.
Sam: And we all see what the results are!
Dean: Oh God!
Sam: And why do you trust him? He's angel. And according to you and to what we've seen angels are dicks.
Dean: He helped us Sam! A lot.
Sam: So as Ruby.
Dean: What? Are you comparing him with Ruby? Are you-
Sam: Are you comparing him with me? I am sorry I am not angelic perfect!
Dean takes a deep breath. Talks now in a lower but angry voice.
Dean: And why don't YOU trust me? What in the hell did I do to you? Why-
Sam (cuts off, yelling louder): Cause when I trusted you Jessica died!
Dean gasps. Then he closes his eyes while taking a deep breath. Sam looks down. Dean come closer to him, making him to have an eye contact.
Dean (calmly) : That's your difference with Cas. He trusted me, he helped me, he trusted me to do what I had to and I failed. And he lost everything. But he never told me that I wasn't worth trusting….
He turns around and takes his car-keys from the bed.
Sam: Dean…
Dean drops his keys back.
Dean: Look…You see that we can't do anything. We can't have a good relationship. Never. Maybe just because we don't want to. We are not friends but we are family. And we if we separate now, the angels and demons are gonna take that advantage and you know the results... But after this…I really don't know if I want to try to…be friends.
Dean gets his bag and the keys and the bag and he goes out of the room. Sam doesn't say anything.
Dean (talking to himself): That's a progress! I didn't yell much.
Suddenly Cas appears in front of him. Dean jambs as Cas scared the hell out of him and he drops the keys and the bag down
Dean (shouting): Fuck!!!What in the hell did I tell you? Stop appearing to me with this fucking way!
Castiel: I am sorry… I just brought you those…
Castiel shows him a bag with the food he ordered. Dean looks at him with regret.
Dean: Sorry, just… I am an awful friend, aren't I? Anyway…thank you so much.
Castiel: You are welcomed.
Dean: I just had (he stares at the ground like he's thinking something. Then he grins). Cas
why did you help me?
