Summary: If you could have a timer that could count down the minutes up till that moment when you would meet you soul mate would you want one? "Sorry" the blue eyed boy murmured before running away. Dean was in so much shock that he didn't follow the boy, he didn't even know if he could follow him. Destiel and Sambriel.
A/n: The other day I was watching TiMER and started to think "What if Dean and Castiel had timers?" and so this idea plagued me until I just had to write it down. I hope you guys enjoy it. And all mistakes are mine since I don't have a beta. Anyways, enjoy and please let me know what you think about it.
Disclaimer: I don't own TiMER or Supernatural. *Sigh* That sucks.
"People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life"
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
"Michael I don't want to go to school" Castiel mumbled to his brother when he went to wake him up for school.
"I'm truly sorry Castiel but you have to go" Michael gave me an apologetic smile.
"Maybe he could stay today with me?" Lucifer said from where he was leaning against the doorframe.
"I'm sorry but my decision is final," Michael ruffled Castiel's hair before turning to look at Lucifer, "besides I'm kicking you out of the house. You can't come back till you have found a job, I still haven't forgotten about the microwave." Lucifer pouted and stomped all his way downstairs.
"He's such a drama queen" Michael said with a fond smile before following Lucifer.
Ugh, Castiel couldn't believe his luck. There were millions and millions of persons out there in the world and his soul mate had to be the man with the biggest ego to ever exist. He quickly got up and dressed himself in his normal dark jeans, a pale blue shirt, and blue vans. Once dressed he quietly made his way to the kitchen.
"What happened?!" he exclaimed when he saw in the corner, where once upon a time stood their microwave, a big black spot. Anna not having noticed Castiel was startled when he yelled.
"Yesterday when Michael left to pick you guys up I got hungry and since he wasn't here I decided to cook myself something. And I promise I don't know how it happened, one moment everything was fine and the next the microwave exploded!" Lucifer said making the whole sound effects and hand movements.
"You are banned from ever entering the kitchen" Michael said giving him a stern look.
"Yeah, yeah" Lucifer replied rolling his eyes.
"Anyways there's no time to eat breakfast Castiel we are late!" Gabriel bellowed as he ran to the door dragging an irritated Anna and a still-waffles-in-the-mouth Castiel.
"Since when do you like to go to school?" Anna asked Gabriel with a suspicious look.
"Since I have set the best prank in the whole history of pranks!" Gabriel said while bouncing in his spot by the doorway.
"Gabriel please don't get suspended" a tired looking Michael said.
"Please I showed that kid all the tricks" Lucifer said.
"Don't worry Michael I won't get suspended" Gabriel promised his brother before making his way to his car, a cherry red 69 Ford Mustang. Every morning before getting inside the car Gabriel would give it a hug, it was a hilarious site to behold a short Gabriel trying to hug a car with his tiny arms. Everyone had a car courtesy of Michael who was a lawyer. Of course Michael didn't buy all the cars he would just give them money for the gas, their father was actually the one who had bought the cars. Their mother had died giving birth to Castiel, and their father disappeared from their lives a few years later after the death of their mother. They only knew he was alive because each month he would send a big fat check to them. For all they knew he was a drug dealer, it wasn't hard to believe because how else would he be able to send their children that ridiculous amount of money.
Anna had a white Saturn Sky. Castiel had a 2013 Ford Focus Sedan which he didn't really use much, only when he felt that his family was babying him too much and he needed to get away from them. They each had gotten a car when they had turned 16. And this year during the summer Castiel had gotten his. Anna and Gabriel got theirs last year, many didn't know but Anna and Gabriel are actually twins. It is hard to believe with Anna having reed hair and Gabriel's being blond. Even though he hated his father he did know their children taste. Or it just might have been Michael emailing the old man and telling him their car taste. Who knew? And besides he didn't want to know anything about that guy.
Gabriel didn't give them a chance to get out of the car before he was rushing to the front doors of the school. He met up with his friends and they went inside talking excitedly to each other.
"Have a nice day Castiel" Anna said before she too disappeared with her group of friends.
Castiel stood in the silence of the car before he got out and made his way to the school. He was almost midway to the doors when out of nowhere someone tackled him and he tumbled down.
"Oof" He heard from above him. He couldn't really talk much let alone make any sound since there was a moose on top of him.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see you there" The boy said as he scrambled to get himself up. Once he did he offered his hand to the poor person he had accidently ran over.
"Sammy, Sammy are you ok?!" a voice yelled running towards them. Castiel froze when he heard that voice. He could recognize that voice from anywhere. And sure enough Dean came at a stop in front of them.
"My name is Sam," Sam dropped his hand when he saw no inclination from the other boy of grabbing it, "and this is my brother, Dean."
"I'm Castiel" He said and mentally giving himself a high five for not letting his voice betray his nervousness.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to run over you I was just in a rush to meet my friends and I didn't see you there" Sam said turning red. Obviously the kid was embarrassed.
"Yeah well how could you have seen him you big giant" Dean said ruffling his brothers hair. Sam just gave him an annoyed face. Dean then turned towards me and extended a hand to help him up. After only a few seconds of contemplation I grabbed it and helped myself up. As soon as our hands touched I could feel a small spark of electricity run through my whole body. I quickly snatched my hand back.
"Uh yeah I'm going to class now" Sam said before running away and leaving us alone. I started to walk away when I felt a hand grab my arm. I turned around and glared at Dean, just because he was popular didn't mean that I was going to tolerate his shenanigans.
"I'm sorry" he mumbled dropping his hand to his side.
"What do you want?" I asked him coldly.
"Look can we just hang out today at lunch and get to know each other?" he said and I stared at his green eyes trying to find any deceit there. After a few seconds of watching Dean squirm in his spot I nodded my consent at him.
"I'll be at the library" was all I said before walking inside the school.
I watched Castiel walk inside the school. Once he was out of earshot I shouted a big wohoo and then I started to run when I heard the late bell ring. Throughout the whole day I couldn't concentrate on the words being said from the teachers. All I could think about was how gorgeous Castiel's blue eyes were. And I hated myself for thinking about those eyes; I was worried of what my team mates from baseball were going to say. I was the captain of the baseball team and everyone had expectations from me. When the bell rang for lunch I quickly stashed my entire things in my backpack.
"Hey Dean slow down the hamburgers will still be there when we get to the cafeteria" my best friend Adam said with a laugh.
"Ha ha real funny Adam, but no today I won't be joining you guys in the cafeteria" I told him.
"What? Why not?" Adam said with confusion. Every day since becoming the captain of the team he would sit in the table dubbed as the-baseball-team-members-only-and-their-girlfriends. Real original right?
"Umm…I've got to go to the library" Dean mumbled, his answer made Adam start cracking up.
"Dude I didn't even know you knew where the library was" he got out in between laughs.
"Shut up asshole" I said and turned around from him. After five seconds I went back to Adam who was still standing were I left him.
"In which hallway is the library?" I asked him feeling myself blush even though I was fighting it.
"It's in the B hallway dude" Adam replied with a smirk.
"I knew that" I told him and started to walk to the B hallway. Adam's laughter could be heard resonating through the hallway.
When I got to the library I signed in and started looking around for any signs of a mop of black hair and blue eyes. I could barely see some tables hided at the back of the library; I decided I should look for Castiel there. He was sitting at a table that was hidden from the rest of the students. As I neared where he was sitting I could see him hunched over a book.
"Hi" he said as a greeting. Castiel only grunted and kept reading. I took that as an invitation to sit down in one of the blue chairs.
"So…what are you doing" I cringed as soon as those words left my mouth. What was I thinking when I asked that question? Of course he was reading. To Castiel's credit he only lifted the book to show me that he was reading without his eyes ever leaving the page he was on. I watched him read for a few more seconds before he inserted a bookmark between the pages he was on and closing the book.
"So what do you want?" He said, I could detect some coldness in the way he asked the question. I shrugged before saying
"Like I said earlier I just want to get to know you more"
"Ok well come on lets go to the cafeteria first I haven't grabbed my lunch and I'm hungry" he said standing up.
"Wait we can't" I said grabbing his arm to stop his movements, he gave me a glare and I quickly drop my hands remembering that he apparently didn't liked to be touched. Although that was probably just with me.
"Why not?" he said tilting his head to the side. That action shouldn't have affected me as much as it did but I couldn't help myself he looked fucking adorable.
"Well because they can't see us together" I told him.
"So you're insinuating that I embarrass you?" he said. And just when I thought his voice couldn't get any colder he proved me wrong.
"No it's not that…it's just that I'm me…and you are…well…nerdy" That did not come out as I wanted it to.
"You're such an asshole" Castiel said glaring at me. And all I could think was if stares could kill I would be totally dead.
"I don't care if we are soul mates and meant to be. Right now I prefer to live the rest of my life alone" was all Castiel said before he ran away. I just stood there in my chair thinking about how it was a new personal record of making someone hate me in one day of knowing him.
When night came I decided to skip dinner I wasn't hungry and besides Castiel's words kept running through my mind.
"Are you sure that you are ok?" Sammy asked me when I told him that I was going to my room.
"Yeah I'm just tired. I had a long and hard practice today." I told him before closing my door. That night I realized that I didn't want to live the rest of my life alone. Sammy was starting to grow up and soon he would get a life of his own, maybe marry someone and move with that person to a white picket fenced house. And where would he be? Tomorrow, tomorrow I will fix things with Castiel he decided before falling to a restless sleep, dreaming of a big lonely house and him calling for Sammy before remembering that Sammy had left him.
A/n: its official I need a beta because I don't have time to be revising the chapters. Senior year is hard, everyone says that it's the best year but so far it's been the hardest one. Anyways I totally need a beta and a new friend to give me ideas because I don't know where this story is going.
