Dean is holding tightly to Mary's hand, standing outside his classroom.
"Dean," Mary says, "you need to let go of Mommy's hand and go inside, 'kay?"
"My tummy feels weird," Dean says. "Can we go home?"
"Dean," Mary sighs, "there's nothing wrong with you. Just go inside and after you give Castiel the card, you'll feel better."
Reluctantly, he let go of Mary's hand and walked into his classroom slowly, biting his lip.
Castiel was sitting at his table, arms folded in front of him, legs swinging back and forth. He was watching as their teacher, Miss Moseley, tried to stop Chuck Shurley from eating glue. Again.
"Hi Cass," Dean says when he gets next to him.
"Hello Dean." Castiel smiles, making Dean blush.
Dean reaches into his bag and pulls out Castiel's card. His mom helped him pick it out.
"Here," he says, handing it to Castiel. He's only able to read a couple of words, but he knows Castiel can read the whole thing.
It had a bright red heart on the cover and above it, "Happy Valentine's Day" in blocky blue writing.
Inside, it had Dean's doodles of him and Cass holding hands, laying on some grass, and eating pie. It also had a quote:
If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you.
-A.A. Milne
Castiel's smile got even bigger. Then, he reached under his chair and pulled out a black teddy bear wearing a blue tie.
"This is for you," he says, giving it Dean.
Dean hugged the bear tightly to his chest. His cheeks were burning now.
"Imma name him Tiel," Dean mumbled.
Castiel leaned forward and kissed the tip of his nose.
Dean's blush spread to his entire face.
Crowley raised his hand. "Ms. Blake," he said.
Ms. Blake sighed.
"Ms. Blake," Crowley repeated. "Ms. Blake. Ms. Blake. Ms. Blake."
"What Crowley?"
"Can I go give this to someone?" he asked waving the box he had in his hand around.
She sighed again. "To who, Crowley?"
"Someone who's not this class room," he said seriously.
"Who, Crowley," she said a little louder.
"Balthazar," he said, his face going a little red.
"Okay," she said. "Take Gabriel with you." At least she'll get 5 minutes of peace and quiet if they're both not in the room.
"Aww," Gabriel complained. He was enjoying the candy he got from everyone, mostly the girls. The candy that was overflowing in the cardboard box he brought in for that specific reason.
They grabbed their hall passes and started down the hallway.
"What'd you get him?" Gabriel asked. He had chocolate all over his face.
"A whole bunch of none of your beeswax." Crowley replied.
Gabriel blew a raspberry at him. Crowley chose to ignore it.
They got to Balthazar's classroom and stood at the door.
Balthazar's mom is also his teacher, so she let them come inside and gave them heart-shaped candies.
"Happy V-day, Balthy," Crowley said, handing him the small box.
Balthazar opens it, reaches inside, and pulls out a heart-shaped rock that has "B+C 4 EVR" painted on it. Balthazar's nose and cheeks turn the color of roses, and he mutters "thank you".
Balthazar reaches into his backpack and takes out a small stuffed badger. He hands it to Crowley, who clutches it in his hand.
Crowley then gave him a bug hug.
When Dean came home, he immediately went over to Sam in his playpen.
"Hiya Sammy." Dean said cheerfully.
Sam clapped his hands in response.
"Here, something for you to drool on," he threw in a stuffed heart that had "Be Mine" stitched on it. An annoying girl named Lisa from another class gave it to him.
Sam started chewing on it.
"Happy Valentine's Day," Dean said.
Sam just drooled on his new toy.
