"Cas, this is so stupid," Dean complains. "Once again we are the bottom of the school pyramid. We are right below the Asian exchange students and the teen moms club." Outside of McDowell High School, Dean and Castiel sat on a bench.
"What's the big deal?" asked Cas. "Everybody is higher than us."
"Don't you see? We need to do something that'll change this school forever."
"Why do we need to so badly?" laughed Cas.
Dean stood up on the bench and said to his best friend, "I don't wanna be just another face in the yearbook. Every time I walk into class, people think I'm a new kid. Well I just wanna say that this school sucks ass!"
"Well, well, well," said a familiar voice. "If it isn't Tweedledee and Tweedledum."
They turned around to find Gabriel Malone, Castiel's stepbrother. Behind him were his two sidekicks, Rafael and Michael. Dean hopped off the bench and breathed, "Gabe, I see that you still haven't hit puberty."
"And I see that you still don't have a girlfriend. That makes us both dreamers."
"Gabe, how many lame insults do you have for us today?" asked Cas.
"A ton for you and your boyfriend here. Sometimes I wish you two would be running off to Candy Land with Sammy as your carriage horse."
"Oh, look, Lisa, it's the leprechaun," said a female voice.
In front of them were Charlie Bradbury and Lisa Braeden, the most popular girls in school. They both have important and famous reputations in school. Lisa was known as the biggest whore and Charlie was the only lesbian in school.
"Oh, joy," Gabriel shrieks like a girl. "The Powerpuff Girls are here to rescue the two gay Winklevoss Twins!"
"Don't get us started on what you did at Melanie Bachman's party," Lisa mentions. "Remember, Gabe?"
He grew silent for a moment. "Okay, I'll leave." Gabriel walks away with Rafael and Michael.
"Sorry about that," Lisa says to the boys. "Gabe can be a major bitch sometimes."
"No worries," said Cas. "He's my stepbrother."
"Really? He never talks about you. I'm Lisa and this is Charlie."
"I'm Castiel and this is Dean." Dean was too scared to talk. He couldn't take his eyes off of Lisa. "Dean?"
"What?" He snaps back into reality. "I-I gotta go . . . throw up!" Dean grabs his backpack and runs away from them.
"Is he alright?" asked Charlie.
"He's fine," Cas assures them. "Dean just gets nervous a lot and throws up. We just didn't think that the most popular girls in school would ever talk to us."
"Well we always love meeting new people. Hey, Castiel, why don't you and Dean come to my party tonight? It'll be a lot of fun."
"Really? Sure, he and I will stop by."
"Okay, bye, Cas." Lisa and Charlie walked away from him.
All their lives Dean and Cas would try so hard to be popular. They would try out for sports and hit on some girls. It wasn't like they were being bullied. Nobody would talk to them and ignored them.
During lunch, Dean and Cas say at the table next to the trash can. It was just the two of them since nobody would dare sit with them.
"Charlie invited us to her party tonight," Cas told his best friend.
Dean nearly chokes on his tater tots. "Charlie Bradsbury?" He coughs.
"Yeah, she told me herself after you went to throw up."
"Holy crap! This is huge. Popular kids invited us to their party. They must think we're cool like them."
"Don't take it too far, man. We can just go, have a few drinks, and leave."
"Come on, Cas. We have never been to an actual party. The only thing we've done every Friday night is steal your parents liquor, sat on your roof, and howl at the moon."
"Not just that. Last Friday night, we took a leak in the Malcolm Doyle fountain at the park."
"So you wanna go or what?"
Cas nodded. "Yeah, we can go for your sake."
"Awesome. Thanks, Cas. I think I'm in love with you right now."
"You said the same thing to Mrs. Kincaid after she got her new double D jugs."
Both of them laughed, which caught Lisa and Charlie's attention from across the cafeteria. "They are so cute together," Charlie comments.
"Tell me about it," said Lisa. "They act more like brothers than boyfriends."
"I'm glad that we met them, Lisa. I always wanted a gay friend."
"How can you be sure that they're gay together?"
"Lis, my gaydar is going off on both of them. Well it's clear that they are obviously bisexual."
"Actually, I think Dean is pretty cute. That whole gay boyfriend thing is really turning me on." She happily glares at Dean for a moment.
"Ugh!" Charlie gags in disgust.
Lisa turns back to her best friend. "What?"
"He's gay, Lisa. Plus, he has a boyfriend and he's right there." She points to Cas, who threw a hot Cheeto in the air and caught it in his mouth.
"I don't know, Charlie. Maybe it's how sweet and tough he gets with Castiel. I don't wanna steal him from him. Castiel is a good guy."
"They must be closeted."
"What makes you say that?"
"I haven't seen them flirt, hold hands, hug, call each other Baby, or even kissed."
"Charlie, not all couples like to do any of that. But it is true. Should we like make them feel more welcome here?"
For a moment, Charlie thinks of something. She snaps her fingers once she figures it out. "I know! Lisa, let's nominate them as homecoming kings."
"Homecoming kings? Are you sure?"
"Yeah, we can campaign them as the first same-sex couple ever in McDowell High. Let's do it, Lisa."
"Okay, we'll do it."
