Castiel sat, slouched in a cushioned chair. Samandriel stood over him pushing his fingers through his hair."Your hair is quite the untamable Castiel." Samandriel said with soft humor in his words. Castiel shrugged roughly, and stood to help Samandriel with his coat. Samandriel gave him a plain smile as he turned to step down the staris. Castiel followed him down soon after, loud squeals of delight were pouring from the front porch. Gabriel and Balthazar were talking quickly and loudly, while their father was pulling up with the family carriage. His mother was currently speaking dramatically to his father, who smiled softly and gestured to the two men. They quickly scrambled up into the seats, while their mother climbed with a slow demeanor. He looked around and saw Samandriel, nowhere in sight. Castiel rounded the corner to their sitting room. The door was ajar, a figure sat in the seat hunched over. Castiel stepped towards it when suddenly hand reached out and grapped his arm. Castiel swung around his eyes wide, his breathe was sucked in loudly. Lucifer slapped his knee with a loud laugh spilling from his lips.
" I really got you there!" Lucifer smirked and lightly punched Castiel on the shoulder.
Castiel shook his head, his eyes squinting, " you have 'gotten' me nowhere." Lucifer pressed his hand on top of Castiel's head and continued to mess up his barely made hair. Castiel grunted and reached up to grab Lucifer's hand, when their mother entered.
" Lucifer, what are you doing to your brother!?" She asked with a shrill voice, Castiel currently had Lucifer in a head lock. Lucifer's expression went from smile to a deep frown in seconds.
" What do you mean, what I've done?" He asked, while shoving Castiel off him. His mothers faltered looking for something.
" Well, what happened to his hair?!" She asked waving her hand about, towards Castiel who opened his mouth to speak.
" What do could you possibly mean?! His hair is always this way!" Lucifer's voice had raised a pitch and his face had gone red. Lucifer immediately stormed out of the room. Mary turned to Castiel then with a smile that stretched over her face in a weird way and beckoned him to come. Castiel followed behind silently, and obediently. When they arrived at the front porch, everyone was in their seats. Castiel looked at Samandriel who was picking at his coat. His mother had sat down and began to scold Samandriel for doing so. Castiel pulled himself up and next to Samandriel. His father then sent the horses to a trot. Castiel rest his elbow on the side of the carriage and stared meaninglessly into the scenery.
A sharp pain jostled him out of his day dreaming. His mother had pinched him and then continued to shove him out the carriage door. Samandriel waited for him patiently. Castiel slide out from the carriage and set himself to Samandriel's side. He wasn't very sociable guy, and only had one friend. They continued towards the large home. They doors swung inwards people, spilling in and out. They entered, sharp trills of violins, violas and cellos trailed throughout the large room. The room filled to the brim with people. In the middle fixed with people dancing steps, Castiel had always wondered how they knew all the steps. Maybe it was just a knowledge given at birth. Castiel favored dancing; it was uplifting and as sociable as he could get. It wasn't that he was shy, but that he didn't like to talk. He maneuvered jerkily through the pressed crowds, and made his way to a familiar face, a friend. Bobby Singer, Castiel cocked his head at the man who nodded at him. They were close friends, and found they could have the best of times making gestures at each other. Castiel looked over at the dancers, Gabriel and Balthazar right in the middle dancing; both could be called a little… raunchy when dancing. His father and mother were on the other side, his hand around her waist as she smiled fondly at the two dancing. Lucifer stood his father's other side, with a bored expression.
Castiel turned to Samandriel, "you're already getting the highest of stares." The statement could be called teasing in Castiel's standards. Samandriel shook his head with a soft laugh. "I couldn't possibly." Castiel let a smile slip loosely on his lips, Samandriel never did give himself credit. "But you shouldn't let them catch your eye Samandriel, only the greatest of man can wed you." Castiel murmured. Samandriel shook his head fondly, "Someone's going to catch your eye Castiel, and you'll have to watch your tounge." Castiel made a confused expression, and attempted to look down at his lips. Samandriel laughed softly. Bobby chuffed and shook his head softly, muttering something under his breath.
The music had stopped Castiel raised his head to look towards the disturbance. Two men and a woman stood there. They all stood with grace and power. Castiel's eyes stopped on one of the men. His hair was cropped short and his eyes were green, oh were they green. His breath stopped short and he looked away hastily.
Bobby had turned his head to Castiel's ear," Mr. Winchester is the one on the right and next to him is his sister. And the man to the left is Mr. Smith." Castiel shrugged his shoulders softly. " Mr. Smith earns ten thousand a year and owns half of-" Bobby had stopped talking and had looked up. Castiel looked up with them, they were passing by. Castiel quickly bowed softly, he slipped a peek while doing so. Mr. Smith had caught his eye, and returned it with a wink. Castiel's face went in flames he quickly turned his face away.
The three had reached the front of the room, and the music started up again. The dancing continued not even a second after. He could briefly see his mother hardily talking to his father who nodded. Mr. Winchester had begun to around the room. His eyes settled shortly on a man with pale face and amazing eyes. The man smiled briefly to his companion. Mr. Smith leaned to whisper into 's ear. "See anything you like, Adam?" The voice drawled and slipped in an eyebrow cock. Adam shook his head at his older friend. "Try to be good, Dean?" His friend only threw his head back and laughed loudly.
Castiel talked quietly with with his brother and friend when his mother had, apparently, danced over to them. She grabbed Samandriel's hand and tugged him along, Bobby and Castiel followed closely behind. Lucifer caught up and stood beside Castiel. An elder man began to introduce them, " Mr. Winchester, my eldest son you know." Bobby nodded at him gruffly. " Then we have a Mrs. Novak, Samandriel Novak. Castiel Novak, Lucifer Novak, and a Mr. Novak." The elder man finished and began heavily drinking his achol. Bobby shook his head angrily and turned away. " It is a pleasure! I have another two, but it seems they already dancing!" She said brightly. " I'm delighted to meet your acquaintances." He said warmly. The man stopped his drinking, " Then a Mr. Smith." Mr. Smith bowed lazily and grinned at them. The music had slowed down during their greeting, and the dancing stopped. The room was overrun with clapping and laughing.
Mr. Winchester, Samandriel and Castiel went off to the side to talk.
" So… how are you liking it here so far?" Samandriel had raised his voice to be heard.
He answered quickly, " Very much!" His voice was filled with honesty, and promise.
