Cas, Luke and Gabe walk in the school gates
"If anyone gives you any trouble..."
"I'll be fine, Luke" Cas cuts him off
"Just promise me"
A black impala drives up and a green eyed brown haired guy gets out
"Dean Winchester by the way" Luke tells him
"What?"
"You're future boyfriend's name" Luke replies
"I was looking at his car" Cas says
"Sure...what type is it again?" Gabe asks
"It's a...um"
"Right, science block is that way" Luke says
3 days later
Cas walks into the hall
"Guys take five...what's wrong you need money" Michael asks
"No, I just...I want to watch"
"This is a closed set" Michael tells him
"Please"
"Ok since it's you"
An hour later
Michael's cell phone rings
'Hello...what?...I'm on my way'
"Let me guess, Luke" asks Cas
"Guys I have to leave, emergency. Ms Town is here so stay keep rehearsing...Cas"
"No, I'm staying"
"Ok, just get one of these kids to give you a lift" Michael replies
Cas nods
2 hours later
Cas has fallen asleep
"Were we that bad?" Dean asks
"No I..."
"Dude, I was kidding...You're new" Dean cuts him off
"Yea"
"I'm Dean by the way"
"I'm..."
"Castiel Novak, I know you're brother's been talking about you coming to stay for weeks."
"(Sighs) he is so embarrassing"
"Why didn't you go with him?" Dean asks
"I wanted to watch the rehearsals"
Dean looks at him
"I just love Romeo and Juliet"
"(Laughs) you don't have to lie you know" Dean tells him
"What?"
"Came to check out our Juliet"
"Well..."
"Can't say I blame you, she is beautiful...come on let me give you a lift"
"There's no need"
"How are you getting home?" Dean asks
Silence
"I'm going that way anyway"
45 minutes later they arrive
"What time do you call this?" asks Gabe
"I was watching rehearsals"
"Why?" asks Luke
"On a count of his new boyfriend, Dean Winchester"
"He's not..."
"Leave him alone, Gabe" Michael warns
"I'm just messing"
The next day at lunch time
"Cas, over here" Dean says
"Why you inviting that nerd over" Tilly asks
"Shush" Dean tells her
Cas comes over sitting opposite Dean
"Cas, this is Matilda"
"My friends call me, Tilly. You can call me Matilda" She tells him
Dean hits her lightly
"Ouch"
"That's Andrew, Colin and that's Harley down there"
"Sup?" Harley greets
"Are you not hungry?" Dean asks
"I had a ...er big breakfast"
Tilly, Colin, Andrew and Harley exchange looks
"We're going to go"
"Don't you have math next" Andrew asks
"Since when are you eager to get to class"
"This table suddenly just got crowded" Tilly says
They leave
"Sorry bout them"
"Hey, their your friends" Cas replies
"What's that suppose to mean?" asks Dean
"I'm just saying I don't belong at this table"
"Says who?"
"The people that just left, you're friends. They're the popular kids and I'm just ...a nerd"
"They maybe my friends but, so are you"
"Dean, its ok you don't have to pretend"
Silence
"That English assessment is pretty hard"
"Yea, I thought boarding school was bad"
"Do you want to work on it together" Dean asks
"Yea"
"Ok, we can work on it tonight. Unless you have plans"
"None, I'll have to call my brother through"
"Sure, you can call him at my house"
After school
"How was your day?" John asks
"Good"
John looks at him
"Oh, this is Cas. He's new, just started at my school"
"Nice to meet you, sir" Cas replies
"Sir?"
They shake hands
"This one's polite" John says to Dean
"We've got an assignment"
"Sure thing, you need anything?" John asks
"A few snacks wouldn't go a miss"
"You got it"
They go upstairs
"Oh you wanted to call your brother" Dean remembers
Dean goes back downstairs and hands Cas the house phone
"Do you need privacy?" Dean asks
Cas shakes his head and dials a number
10 minutes later Cas puts the phone down
"He's very protective of you"
"Yea, well when my parents died he took over"
"When did they die?" Dean asks
"I was 5"
"My mum died when I was 4" Dean replies
"I don't really remember much about them"
"Me either, I mean my mum. The stuff I do is slowly fading away" Dean says
3 hours later
"I feel bad for taking your whole family out of the house" Cas says
"It's fine, this is a rear family outing isn't it dad"
"It is...of course if you didn't crash you're car I wouldn't need to be here" John says
"Dad this is it"
Dean and Cas get out the back seat
"So, I guess I'll see you tomorrow" Dean says
"Yep"
Cas turns to his door
"Hey"
Cas turns back
"Some friends are coming over Saturday for a marathon you want to come too" Dean asks
"Sure, I'd like that"
"Good"
Dean watches Cas get in his house and then gets back in the car
"What's going on are we home" Sam asks
"No, Sam go back to sleep...so you like this one"
"You make it sound like its loads" Dean replies
"But this one is different I can tell"
"I know this going to sound weird but, I think I love him" Dean says
"Right and how long have you known him?"
Silence
"Just don't rush things" John tells him
"You're giving me advice on love. When's the last time you dated?"
John looks away
"I'm sorry...dad I didn't mean it. I miss mum too"
"Look all I'm saying is take it a day at a time, ok" John tells him
"Ok" Dean replies "He doesn't even know I'm gay any way"
