I decided to give you another one after forever
This should have surprised him, seeing dean there practically dancing around cas ,as a big slice of pie was being cut. But everybody and their mother would'nt have be surprised. It was way too natural in their minds.
What the weird part was Dean saying 'big slice big slice big slice' over and over like a 5 year old.
Sam could hear dean's pats on the linoleum from the kitchen. He turned his back while holding a phone to his ear. "Yeah. We don't know, Garth." Sam heard the clink of cutlery. "Al right. Not that much. Somewhat."
A bit more clinks behind him. Sam paced in the hall and sat down at the first chair he could reach, back against the wall that held the kitchen door. "You can't tell us anything?"
A tap on his shoulder made him turn to his right. Cas' solemn face peered down at him. "Dean is requesting a 'fudge pop', but I cannot locate it. Do you know where it is?"
Sam looked back down to the pad in his hand. He had scribbled down some notes on dean's unusual behavior and dated each one. It was getting longer for each day. "In the freezer cas."
Cas turned back through the door as Sam caught himself. He stood "wait cas, don't give h-"
Dean was sitting in the chair with his face moving furiously against the plate, with remnants of the apple pie stuck to the edge of his ear. He looked up, and Sam saw that he had been licking it. "This is REALLY good pie man." Dean said before going back to licking.
'Of course.' He added that to his list before looking at cas across the room currently reading the back of a Fudge Pop box. "Sam, this has chocolate in it. I don't think we should give it to Dean." He chucked it back into the fridge, causing Dean to turn to him and whine.
Sam remembered when he came home today- that's still a weird word for him- and saw Cas and him actually hugging. Both whipped their heads to the door when Sam slammed it shut and to Sam's dismay disbelief, Dean didn't bluster out a half-assed sentence involving 'shut up' while stomping out the room, oh nooo. Dean bounded right up to him and served up another hug.
"you were gone forever man where you been" Came in a rushed sigh from Sam's shoulder. He was tempted to get out the holy water but remembered a- Cas would have tipped him off if something was 'unholy' about dean, and b- Dean was still a dog and thinking that you're never coming back when you leave for a little bit is definitely dog behavior. He awkwardly pried himself away from his brother and looked at him weird regardless. "I was at the pet shop, remember?" The bag in his hand that was held up for all to see caused an excited calm to spread on Dean's face.
"Wait is that stuff for me?" He pointed to the blue bag. Sam sidestepped him and walked to the table in the study, Dean behind him and Cas staring after them with his quizzical look. Sam made a note to ask about it later but thought it was probably nothing since that was just what Cas was. Soft shuffles, deep gravely questions, and quizzical looks.
It was then, you see, that Sam remembered that he had left his brother in his room. With a shower cap on his head and strict instructions not to move. He saw the blanket he had wrapped Dean in ("what if I get cold? Huh? Then what?") on the floor near the step up to the study in a heap and wondered where the cap was. He mused at the thought of dean actually ripping it up. But the smile faded when he glanced at dean's head and realized he probably hadn't kept it on for more than 5 minuets after he had left and subsequently ruined the process of the flea cream in his hair. "Go wash your hair." He tried to look at dean pointedly yet casually. Almost-commands seemed to be the only thing that got him to cooperate in these trying times.
"why? C'mon dude I've been in and out of the shower all day!" Sam sighed and pulled out the pie he picked up from the market next door to the pet shop. He held it against his chest so Dean could see and looked at him, much more pointedly and less casually.
"Go. Wash."
The light in his eyes disappeared as Sam said it and Dean grumbly trudged off to the shower but not with out a 'not fair' to be heard. Cas turned from staring after dean to now look at Sam, the quizzical look a bit more intense.
Tryna get into Cas's deal reeeeal soon.
