It was two months later since the Castiel incident, if you could call it that. The three were on a case of vampires. Sharon walking among the empty building, her long curly ebony hair dancing around her as she gave a few twirls tiredly, waiting for her cue. By the signal of a beep from her cell phone she stopped and nodded softly.

The girl turned toward the door that held the nest, her nerves rising as she closed her eyes and took in a deep breath. Slowly letting it out, she took a sharp inhale and began singing. "My hopes is on fire, my dreams are for sale. I dance on a wire, I don't want to fail her; I walk along the stream, far from what I believe in. I run toward the end, trying not to give in. She's lost in the darkness, fading away..I'm still around here, screaming her name. She's haunting my dream world, trying to survive. My heart is frozen, I'm losing my mind..Help me I'm buried alive!"

By the end of the sentence, she was surrounded. The vampires were merely fledgling and had no idea what she was. Nor did they know that the song she sang held true meaning. Every night she dreamed of a girl drowning in memories Sharon couldn't reach, the girl begging her to save her. She looked exactly like Sharon, except..she seemed from a different time. Her thoughts were pulled by the sound of heads falling. She pulled out her gun and aimed at the nearest vampire, a shot rang in the air as the bullet flew into the vampire's head.

Another had grabbed Sharon from behind, only to have someone grasp the vampire's head as she screamed, dropping to the floor. Sharon turned to see Castiel, he looked up to her and stared for a moment before nodding toward a vampire running at Sharon. She turned and pulled out a knife, stabbing it in the neck of the creature as she ripped off his head.

Blood splattered her clothes and face as she wiped it off, the nest destroyed as Dean and Sam came back. "Cass! Sharon, are you alright?" Sharon nodded silently, placing the knife back in her belt. "Yeah, I'm good." Dean and Sam started gathering up the bodies to burn them as Castiel was about to walk off. "..Castiel, can we talk?" Cass stopped before turning to the girl, with a silent nod the two walked over to the Impala. "You mind telling me what's going on in that head of yours?" She looked up to him, those crystal blue eyes glowing with curiosity and suspicion. "..Honestly I don't know." He stated, she stared at him before looking down and sighing. "Normally, angel's don't protect fallen for the hell of it. So, why are you protecting me? I won't ask again without hitting you." Castiel felt his eyes soften, if only for a split second. "..You just remind me of someone that I can't really remember." Sharon looked up to Castiel, a soft smile gracing her features as Castiel's heart skipped a beat.

"Thank you, Castiel, for saving me again. I guess I'm not a real good angel."

Castiel wanted to tell her she was amazing, but he kept his silence, his stoic eyes and face never showing what truly lied behind his wall. She placed the guns in the back of the car, shutting the trunk as she looked over, Castiel had long since gone.

"..I guess..fallen angels have Guardians as well.."

Another smile came to her face as she rubbed her forehead, the image of the girl drowning came back to her mind's eye. She closed her eyes as she felt a headache coming over her. She leaned against the car for support as a small memory flashed by.

"Promise me, you'll always be by my side..."

The voice who answered was silence, but she could see lips moving, happiness filling her very core. Then nothing...

"Hey, you okay?" A hand touched her shoulder, she opened her eyes and looked over to Sam, nodding solemnly, "Yeah, lets go before the cops show up." The three got inside and sped off, Castiel looked down, thinking to himself. "..Who are you really, Sharon?" He turned and disappeared, police sirens echoing in the distance.

By the time the three got back to the hotel, Sam and Dean had collapsed onto their beds. Nightfall had finally arrived, leaving Sharon to protect them. The girl picked up her iPod and a book, heading outside as she shut the door, placing a chair right next to the door, the girl sat down and put her earphones in. The girl opened her book and started reading quietly, every now and again looking up to the sky to stare at the stars. She stayed quiet for a long time before pulling her earphones out as she sighed. "Castiel, come on out.." The man appeared next to her, she looked over and up to the man. "Something you need?" He turned and faced the streets, looking up to the stars. Sharon took that as her cue to just continue reading. They stayed there like that, the entire night.

Even though Sharon felt like she barely knew the man, somehow she felt comfortable around him like this. Just quiet, staring at the stars..it somehow felt right. "Sharon..do you remember anything from your past?" A weird question, but she answered honestly. "No, I don't..I was found in a field alone and naked." She continued reading, though the girl could easily feel his embarrassment about the answer. It faded as he continued looking at the stars. "What are you reading?" Sharon bit the inside of her cheek. "King James Bible.." Castiel looked down at her, "..You do know that-", "They got most of it wrong? I figured, they're humans, simple humans. God love them.." Sharon smiled a little. Castiel nodded and looked back up to the sky, he still couldn't place where he recognized her..all he knew was it just felt right being around her if only for a moment in time.

Was this what they called love? Maybe a friendly love, like friends..like how Dean and Sam were to him, he loved them just like friends. Maybe even family..but something felt different with Sharon, a lot different..it wasn't that she was an Fallen Angel..it was something else.

"So, how's the battle coming along?"

Sharon was still reading, but Castiel looked down to her and back forward, "We are doing our best.." Sharon closed her eyes and shut the book quietly. "So, you're loosing?" Castiel didn't like to put it that way, but yes, the battles were being lost and quickly.

"Let me help." Castiel suddenly stated firmly, "No." Sharon looked up to him, "Why not?"

"Because if you're there you'll be taken away, you'll be no help to me then.."

Sharon looked down and nodded, "Alright.."

He hated doing this to her, that sorrowful look crossing her eyes before she opened the book and started reading again, he looked back up to the stars. For the rest of the night, they stayed like that, just peace and quiet..
