Me: Thank you everyone who reviewed! Thanks everyone who favorited and story alerted (although I would have preferred a review so I know what you guys are thinking).

Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural.

You need to know: My computer crashed and I'm on the library computer right now so since I don't know when I'll be able to update again, this chapter might have to tide you over for a little while.


Dean paused for the second time that week, seeing another man in front of the Novak's house. He had wanted to see the blue eyed man again- hell, that guy was haunting his every thought, and last night his dreams and Dean wanted a good fuck. But he also wanted those blue eyes to keep staring at him and never look away. But that was a momentary lapse of judgment on Dean's part because Dean didn't do the whole "fall in love at first sight" thing- it was too much of a chick flick thing and he really didn't do chick flicks. He resumed walking when the man who was sitting on the stone wall turned his attention to him expectantly.

"That my mail?" he asked.

"Depends," Dean said, leafing through the mail. "Are you Uriel Novak, Michael Novak, Raphael Novak, or Zachariah Novak?"

"I'm a Novak," he nodded. "But not one of those names. Hey, you seen any ghosts around?"

"Ghosts?" Dean said. "You mean like haunting places, Halloween type shit?"

"Yep," he nodded again.

"Yeah, at the haunted house. You know, the creepy one at the end of the road that no kids go to except for the stupid one and then he disappears?" Dean said. The man looked surprised before he started laughing.

"I like you! Really, I do," he snickered. "I'm Gabriel."

"Well Gabriel, I'm Dean. Hey, you got a brother with black hair and blue eyes? Like really blue," Dean asked. Gabriel's smile disappeared.

"Sounds like… why do you wanna know?" Gabriel asked suspiciously.

"Saw him in front of your house," Dean said. "Man can't get a joke."

"Sounds like Castiel," Gabriel said. "Hey, if you see him again, tell him to get his ass home. His rebellion has gone on a little too long."

"What do I look like? A messenger?" Dean asked. "Don't answer that. Here's your mail."

"Have a good day," Gabriel said tauntingly with a smirk.


Dean had been delivering papers for a little over a week since he had seen the blue eyed beauty, Castiel. Dean had finally told Sam the "mystery man's" (as Sam had dubbed him) name and had told Sam about Gabriel which had led to the other weird names, leading to the Bible, leading to Dean's complaints about Gabriel. Gabriel was quite a character. Gabriel never failed to meet Dean in front of the house, be it himself personally or with a trick.

He had met Uriel Novak the day Gabriel rigged the mailbox so it wouldn't open.

"Damn you, Gabriel!" Dean snarled, trying to pry open the mailbox.

"Sir, is there a problem with my mailbox?"

"Yeah, your damned brother glued it shut!" Dean growled.

"I'd appreciate it if you refrained from damning my brother," the man said. Dean turned to look at the brother Novak and was surprised.

"You uh…"

"Are adopted, as are all the Novak children," Uriel said.

"I was going to say cracked a joke but yeah. You want to take your mail?" Dean grunted.

"You're Dean," Uriel frowned.

"That's what my mom called me. Why do you know who I am? Gabriel been talking about me?" Dean asked, a bit of pride in his voice.

"Specifically about how he was going to rig the mailbox so it opens in instead of out," Uriel said, taking the mail from Dean and pushing the lid in.

"Uriel, you spoilsport!" Gabriel shouted from inside the house. "That's what I'd expect from Michael or Castiel!"

"Castiel's here?" Dean asked, unable to hide the hope in his voice.

"No," Uriel said. "If you see him, tell him to come back."

"I'm only a part time mailman!" Dean snapped. Uriel just looked at him and strolled inside casually enough but to Dean, it looked like he was tense about going in his own home. For some reason, Dean felt like he made a bad first impression and he didn't know why he had even thought the thought.

He finally saw Castiel again when Gabriel rigged the mailbox for the second time.

"You finally make another appearance," Dean said. "Regular Ruth Gordon*, aren't you?"

"I find it hard to believe you know Rosemary's Baby," Castiel said.

"I don't, my brother does," Dean shrugged.

"So you have a brother," Castiel said. "I have many."

"I've met two of them," Dean said. "Speaking of them, you wanna open this mailbox for me?"

"Did Gabriel do something to it?" Castiel frowned.

"No, course not," Dean said with a cheeky grin.

"Then why would you ask me to open a mailbox?" Castiel asked and Dean had no real answer.


*In Rosemary's Baby, a movie, Ruth Gordon is a nosy neighbor who often sneaks up on her neighbors. This is a reference from Gilmore Girls which, (for those who don't know) Jared Padalecki (ironically) played Dean, Rory's (Alexis Bledel, one of Gilmore Girl's leading ladies) first boyfriend. I'm not completely positive about the Ruth Gordon reference so feel free to correct me.
