Pairing: Dean/Cas

Yes this story is a AU. So that means Cas is not an angel and Dean and Sam are not hunters. In this story Ellen adopted Castiel and Jo is his sister .

Chapter 1

Fate


Six years ago.


Castiel sat at an abandoned table while the lunchroom buzzed with the excitement of the other students. He glanced around the room wondering why he was considered so different, why he was singled out. He sighed as he tossed his brown bag to the center of the table. As he leaned back into the chair he heard a lighthearted laugh from behind him. He turned to see his small group of friends. Dean sat next to him as Castiel meet his gaze.

" What was that for? The food didn't do anything…." Dean laughed as he patted Cas on the back. Jo followed Dean as she sat at the table. Jo was Castiel's sister for all intensive purposes. Her mom Ellen had adopted him when he was still young. He had never known his parents; he had always lived in various foster homes. Jo was perhaps the best friend he had, except for Dean that is.

Jo pulled out her bag as she glanced at Castiel, a frown appearing on her face immediately. "Cas, what's wrong? Did someone do something again?"

Her face immediately stiffened with anger as she glanced around the room. She had unconsciously picked up the plastic knife from her bag and was twirling it in her fingers. "Who was it?" She said looking at Castiel.

Cas let a small laugh escape his lips as he saw her protective nature surface. He shook his head slowly as he looked at her. " No one, I am fine…" he said looking at Dean this time; he was looking at him with the same fierce gaze.

"I am not helpless you know…" he said even though his voice was losing it's conviction as he stared at his brown bag. Dean sighed as he placed his hands on Castiel's back.

" We know" Dean said as his face lit with a sincere smile. Castiel looked up as he felt someone else sit at the table. It was Sam.


Present day.


Dean was the center of attention at his table. People seemed to flock towards his charm, Castiel observed from a distant table. He sat alone. He inhaled as he remembered his purpose for coming. He stood up as he steadily made his way to the table. It suddenly went quiet. Castiel could feel all the eyes turn on him and look at him with a sense of disgust. Cas raised his eyes trying to meet Dean's, but instead was meet with the top of his head. Dean was refusing to look at him.

Castiel felt his courage slipping as the stares continued. Finally a brunette broke the silence.

" What do you want queer?" His tone was harsh as he took a step closer to Castiel. Castiel backed up as he looked to Dean for help; he received none. He could see Dean shift uncomfortably in his seat, but he did nothing to stop the advance.

Castiel's face tightened as he was hit with the harsh reality of the distance between them now. The brunette stopped in front of him.

"Well?" He sneered. Castiel started to shift on his feet. He finally raised his head looking past everyone.

" I-I was just wondering if maybe… Dean, if you wanted you could come over and we could have a movie night or whatever, like we used to…." He hastily said. Dean shifted in his seat finally lifting his gaze to meet Castiel's. He eyes shone full of emotions. As he was about to reply, another interrupted him. It was his brother.

"Actually he is busy this weekend…sorry he has his initiation party this weekend." Castiel's eyes grew slightly larger with the statement. Sam laughed as he patted Dean on the back as he stood from the table.

" You mean he didn't invite you?" Sam looked at him, a smile on his face. Dean returned his gaze to the table.

"Cas…I-It must have slipped my mind." Dean interrupted.

" Well it is an open invitation, so you should come! Isn't that right Dean?" Sam proclaimed over Dean's seemingly shameful voice.

"Sure, forget about my plan, it was stupid anyway." Cas said as he looked at Sam. Sam was the cause behind the distance between Cas and Dean, well part of it anyway. Castiel knew that they were not friends, never had been. His head screamed for him to decline, that it would be a bad idea to go.

" I will go". Castiel said before his mind could get in the way. Castiel let a nervous smile grace his face. The look on Dean's face said it all, Shame.
