"Cas! Where the hell have you been?"
"Dean. I was busy with – "
"Never mind. Are you hungry? I'm 'bout to grab a burger."
Cas tilted his head and gave a human-like shrug.
Dean drove them to the local burger joint in town and parked on the street close enough to the place and far enough so his 'baby' wouldn't be scratched. Cas trailed after Dean who barely cast a glance over at the angel.
They find seats by the window (an advantage in case some evil supernatural force popped up and to keep an eye on the Impala) and grab the menus off another table to peruse.
"What'll it be?" A bottle blond sidles up next to Dean who is focused on the plastic covered menu with her chest barely contained in her tiny t-shirt. He slapped the menu down and orders a 'Double cheeseburger with the works'.
The fake blond cocks her hip out in an attempt to gain his attention and scribbles a pen on her worn note pad. "And you?"
The angel was still staring at the tacky plastic sheathed menu with unblinking eyes.
"I am unsure." He finally said after several long moments.
"He'll have the same.' Dean interjected with a quick charming smile at the young blond. "And can we get a beer and…a chocolate milkshake for him."
They wait for their food and when it arrives, Cas is still quiet.
"So, eat." The waitress leaned over exaggeratedly and was disappointed when Dean was more focused on his burger. "Thanks." He muttered reaching for the cheeseburger.
"This is…?"
"A double cheeseburger. Eat. It's good." Dean mumbled around his own burger. "Or drink the shake."
Cas obediently picked up the burger and took a bite. He wasn't overly fond of hamburgers with or without cheese since that day but Dean…
"Good isn't it?" Dean said after sipping his beer.
Swallowing and categorizing the flavors in his mind, Cas nodded when Dean was waiting for him to answer.
"Yes Dean."
