Adulthood – Chapter Two

Damn, Lilac Orchid was busy tonight. The club had opened about a month ago and it was still buzzing with life as much as it was on the first night it opened. The boys walked in, Dean up front completely owning the room as he walked in, Castiel walking faithfully behind with Gabriel behind him and then Sam at the back. They found a booth and sat down, calling a waitress over to order their drinks. Gabriel suddenly tapped on the table at the others.

"Check out that group of hotties!" He said, everyone looking over to where Gabriel was looking.

"Where?" Dean asked, earning a sigh and eye roll from Gabriel.

"Those four in the booth directly opposite ours!"

The dance floor was in the middle of the club and the seating was up a flight of about four or five steps, and the booths were against the walls and facing the dance floor. The men looked over and gasped. Four breathtakingly gorgeous girls sat right in their eye line and each guy somehow picked a girl without their being a fight unlike usual. One of the girls, the black-haired one, leaned forward and whispered to the others while looking across at the guys, and the other girls all turned and saw, smiling at the guys and waving before returning to their drinks.

"Damn they're hot." Dean laughed, "Who's having who?"

"Can we not talk about them like they're objects?" Castiel said, "It's not exactly fair when they're all as stunning as each other?"

"See," Sam began, "I don't know how you've not got a girl yet, Cas! You're so respectful of women. It's a great quality."

"Thanks, Sam." Castiel replied with a smile.

Dean and Gabriel looked at the others with raised eyebrows before returning to the task at hand.

"I'll take blondie," Gabriel piped up.

"I'll take the black haired one." Dean said, looking to the others.

"I like the redhead." Sam said with a smile.

"Well it's good thing the brunette's my favourite isn't it?" Castiel said with a laugh.


The four girls sat in their favourite booth with drinks in hand, watching the people slightly below them on the dance floor.

Lily Joanna Starling was the oldest member of the group, the blonde haired, blue eyed twenty-three year old who was an interior designer. She was sweet natured and very funny, bringing most of the laughter to the girls on their nights out. Her hair was curly and it just reached past her shoulder blades, and she had the perfect nose. If any woman wanted the perfect nose-job they should make a model of hers. Her smile was bright and sweet, and she was able to make anyone else smile just by grinning at them.

Eboni Alice Martin was the black haired, brown eyed beauty who was twenty-two years old who ran one of the best beauty salons in the city: Fantasy. She was very creative, bubbly, and the one who was the most outgoing. Her black hair hung gracefully over her shoulders, and was a little shorter than Lily's.

Cleo Olivia Greenwood was the redhead with the just-past-shoulder-length curls and the bright green eyes. She was twenty-one and was a nurse at the local hospital. She worked on the psychiatric ward and saw some pretty horrible things at work, but her caring and loving personality got her through the bad days.

Aria Genevieve Farrell was the brunette. Her hair was shoulder-length, layered and shaped. If you were to look at her hair you'd class it as a punk-girl kind of hairstyle. Aria was twenty-two and she taught the first-graders at Harvelle Elementary school, also working as the school's music teacher. She was the shy one who didn't really think too much of herself. But the others always assured her that she should think highly of herself. She was damn beautiful, both inside and out. It went without saying.

"Hey, girls," Eboni said quietly as the others laughed at a joke Lily had just made, "Check out those guys in the booth opposite us."

The other girls turned and saw them, smiling and waving before returning to their drinks.

"Wow." Lily breathed, drinking some of her vodka quicker than intended and coughing on the stuff slightly.

"They seem pretty interested," Eboni pointed out, "Who wants who?"

"They're not toys, Eboni." Cleo said, taking a sip of Bailey's.

"I know, I know." Eboni laughed, "But come on, they're hot!"

While the men were talking amongst themselves, the girls snapped their heads around to have a quick look.

"Okay," Eboni said, "You all picked?"

The girls nodded.

"I'm taking Mr. Cute with the brown hair and the seriously long legs." Cleo said with a laugh.

"I'll go for the one sat next to him, with the longer hair." Lily chirped, "He's got delicious eyes, they stand out a mile!"

"What about you, Eboni?" Cleo asked.

"I like the guy with the sexy grin…you know the blonde-ish one?" Eboni said, the other girls gasping.

"Oh yeah, he's hot!" Lily laughed, "Still prefer mine."

"So, Aria," Eboni grinned, "Looks like you've got Mr. Dark Hair-Blue Eyes."

Aria quickly got a glimpse of the guy she'd been left with.

"It's a good job I like him then isn't it?" She said with a chuckle, drinking down some of her Bailey's.


"Time to turn on the good old Winchester Charm." Dean said, winking at the others before getting out of his seat before making his way over to the girls.

He slid into the booth beside the girl of his choice and started talking to all four of them, occasionally nodding over at the other table and earning smiles and laughs from the other girls. He nodded and winked at the gorgeous women before returning to the booth.

"Right, we're in." He said, "And it turns out we all get the one we picked."

"Seriously?" Sam asked, everyone's faces lighting up a little, "Dude that never happens!"

"Yeah, it turns out that they like us too, so let's go."

"What?" Castiel asked, swallowing nervously.

"Dude, come on. You can totally get the girl you wanted." Dean reassured him, "She's really pretty too."

Castiel took a deep breath and nodded, earning wide smiles from the others before they all stood with their beers and made their way over to the girls.


After introductions and a few drinks they all really hit it off, and the girls loved being in the company of such sexy, great, fun guys. The topic of music came up and the girls were really enthusiastic.

"We're in a band, you know." Eboni told them, "We're called: Spirit and we play all sorts of stuff."

"You guys are in a band?" Sam asked, "That's awesome."

"So who plays what?" Dean asked, slipping his arm around Eboni as she explained.

"Aria plays bass guitar and she sings," Eboni began, causing Aria to blush when everyone smiled at her, "I play lead guitar, Lily plays rhythm guitar and Cleo plays drums."

"That's wicked!" Gabriel chirped up, his arm slowly creeping it's way around Lily.

"Yeah, we've got a gig at the Roadhouse on Saturday if you guys wanna come." Cleo chirped.

"Sure," Sam laughed, "That'd be great thanks, girls."

"We're only playing a few songs since it's Battle of the Bands night." Aria said, speaking for perhaps the sixth time that night.

Aria wasn't really confident with talking in front of people, especially hot guys like these four that had seen deemed them attractive enough to come and drink with. She was always scared of saying something stupid and scaring them off.

"Cool," Dean nodded, "We'll be there, right guys?"

The others nodded and then Bad Romance by Lady GaGa rang out through the club.

"Who's up for a dance?" Eboni asked, grabbing Dean's hand and pulling him to the dance floor.

The other three couples joined them and they danced along to the song. The boys got a bit of a shock though. Aria had proven to be so damn shy, and they didn't reckon she'd be up to much as a dancer, but GOD did she prove them wrong. The beat got going and that girl began moving her hips so fluidly she looked almost liquefied, and she moved so smoothly, Castiel couldn't take his eyes off her. The other girls laughed at the expressions on their partner's faces before saying to them: "There's your proof to never judge a book by it's cover."

The girls used to get really annoyed at guys when they'd reject Aria because she was too shy. A couple of guys had tried it on with her on occasion outside the club and she had to wrestle them off her, which made her even shyer and once or twice put her off going out for a few weeks.


By 1:30am everyone was ready to go home. The couples switched numbers before parting with kisses to the cheeks and hugs. Lily pulled Castiel to one side before he left.

"Listen, Cas." She began, "If you're thinking of seeing Aria again, just be aware that a few things have happened on dates and nights out that put her off."

"Like what?" Castiel asked, concern filling his voice and eyes.

"Occasionally guys have tried stuff on with her and it's freaked her out too much to see them again or come out." Lily replied, "She's not a virgin or anything, but because she's so shy sometimes she just needs to take things slow."

"Okay," Castiel said, "Thanks, Lily, I'll keep that in mind."

They broke away and joined their friends.

"We'll see you guys on Saturday!" Dean called as he watched the girls head out of the door.

They all turned back and smiled, waving as they left.

"I told you!" Dean said, "I knew we'd get girls tonight! Damn even Cas got a girl!"

The others chuckled and Castiel smiled. He'd not had many girlfriends because they generally found the staring thing creepy and they thought he was a bit weird, but Aria seemed to really have taken a shine to him. He really liked her too.

The men all walked back to their house, and secretly none of them could wait for Saturday night.
