Dean frowned at her, and Alex squirmed. Honest to God, disappointing her boys was not a feeling she was used to. She was the baby, and while she often wanted to feel more grown up, she had to admit that the small amount of coddling she received was appreciated. Dean did it with Sam, too, but he was a big, grown up Sasquatch...

"OK, but promise you won't be mad at him?"

"Depends on the guy, Alex." Sam blurted out.

Alex sighed. "OK, it was Cas, but it was completely my idea," she blurted. "You guys have dated lots of girls; I'd never even kissed a boy, and it was either going to be Cas or Garth, since I don't know a lot of others, and I can't just... A stranger felt wrong somehow.. "

Dean ran a hand down his face. "Oh, geez..."

Sam, however, looked amused. "It's OK... You were just curious. That's normal. But-"

"Cas is family, it's weird!"

"Dean! Eventually people hit... That age!" Sam said reproachfully. "Talking to her is better than shaming her! It was just kissing!" then, Sam suddenly got a very worried look. "It was just kissing, right?"

Alex sighed. "Yes, of course! I told him the boob thing was too much-" and her face turned red. "I mean, yes, just kisses."
