Chapter 7

Over the next several days, every day after work the twins would spend an hour or so in their own apartment before spending the evening with the brothers. The Omegas seemed much calmer, less stressed, as if a corner had been turned in their relationship. It seemed as if the Alphas were finally starting to earn their trust.

The brothers learned that the twins would be turning 21 in a few days, and decided that they were going to take them out. The twins were apprehensive, they never really went out except to work or the community center. It wasn't safe for Omegas to be out and about, especially at night, as evidenced by the night they all had met. Sam and Dean promised to protect them, keep them safe. The twins started to see that there might be a whole new aspect to having the Alphas in their lives. For the first time, they could begin to think about going out and enjoying themselves,.

The brothers wanted them to have a good time, with as little potential hassle as possible. Ellen Harvelle, the Alpha woman who ran the Omega self defense class at the Community Center owned a bar on the outskirts of town. It was a typical roadhouse dive except that Ellen's daughter Jo worked there as a waitress and Ellen and her regulars didn't allow anyone to harass Omegas. It was the knowledge that Ellen and Jo would be there as well that finally convinced the twins to agree.

Cas and Caileigh dressed up as best they could. Cas wore his newest pair of blue jeans and a black polo shirt. Caileigh wore a pair of cowboy boots with a flirty little royal blue sleeveless dress that had a sweetheart neckline, fitted bodice, and a flared skirt. Sam and Dean also dressed up a little. They each wore jeans, Dean even found a pair with no holes. Dean wore a clean black t-shirt under a dark blue chambray button down left open. Sam wore his nicest western cut button down. This was the first time they were taking their Omegas out on the town and they wanted the night to be special. They were determined to make this the best birthday the twins ever had.

When the twins arrived at their apartment, the brothers had them open their presents before they left. Dean gave Cas a watch on wide black leather band, kissing the inside of his wrist before buckling it on. Sam gave Caileigh a silver heart necklace with a blue stone to match her eyes. He had her turn around, lifting her raven hair out of the way so he could fasten it. He placed a kiss at the nape of her neck before setting her long locks back in place.

When they arrived at the roadhouse, Dean steered them towards a table in the corner. As they walked across the bar, several nostrils flared as they caught the scent of twin Omegas. In any other bar there would have been a problem, but the presence of the two large Alphas with proprietary arms around them coupled with Ellen's rules under the watchful eye of the bouncer, Rufus ensured that no one bothered them. Ellen made a point of coming over to their table and wishing the twins a happy birthday, demonstrating that these four were guests here under her protection. Jo came over with four beers, making a big show of carding the twins. On her recommendation they ordered burgers and fries as well.

Cas and Caileigh were nervous, but the Alphas continually reassured them with small touches. Eventually the alcohol began to hit their system and they relaxed. When they finished with the food and beers, Dean ordered them another round. A pool table opened up and the brothers decided to teach the twins how to play pool. Sam and Dean took every opportunity to touch their Omegas, pressing up against them to help guide their shots. Cas and Caileigh were having a good time basking in the attention of their Alphas, the alcohol making warmth pool in their bellies spreading tingles throughout their bodies.

After several games of pool, and a few more beers, the brothers pulled their dates out onto the dance floor. Neither of the twins had ever danced before, and Sam and Dean enjoyed teaching them. Eventually they wound down to just holding their Omegas close and swaying to the music. Caileigh stood on tip toe, twining her fingers around Sam's neck pulling him down for a decidedly steamy kiss. Sam was thrilled, but cautious. Caileigh had never taken the lead on anything intimate, and he knew that the alcohol was giving her the courage. Sam led Caileigh over to the bar, lifting her up to sit on one of the high bar stools and moving to stand in front of her. This way he could continue the kissing without getting a crick in his neck. They continued to make out, earning an indulgent smile from Ellen. Sam nuzzled her neck, lazily kissing and licking a path up and down her throat.

Head spinning from the combination of alcohol and Alpha scent, Caileigh whispered in his ear, "Sam, don't hurt me."

Sam pulled back looking her in the eye, "I promise I won't"

"If you do, I think it would finally break me," she said before leaning in to kiss him again.

"No one will ever hurt you again," promised Sam.

They left the roadhouse just before closing time, Sam and Dean all but carrying two very drunk Omegas to the car. They ended up in Sam and Dean's apartment. The Alphas wanted to keep an eye on their Omegas in case of any adverse reactions to the alcohol, and if that meant spending more time with Cas and Caileigh in their arms, so be it.

Sam and Dean helped Cas and Caileigh change out of their clothes, coming face to face for the first time with the marks left behind from their abuse. Scars on their backs that could only be whip marks, scarred circles that were clearly cigarette burns, and marks from other unidentifiable trauma. Seeing these only made the Alphas all the more determined that no one would ever hurt their Omegas again. Dean put Cas in a pair of his sweat pants and Sam put Caileigh in one of his shirts. Realizing that the twins might panic if they woke up separated, Sam and Dean tucked them into the queen sized bed in Sam's room. Sam and Dean then changed into sweats themselves before climbing into the bed with Cas and Caileigh who were now holding hands, foreheads touching in the middle of the bed. Dean wrapped his arms around Cas, nuzzling his neck. Cas sighed deeply, sinking further into Dean's embrace. Sam curled himself around Caileigh, savoring the feel of warm, sleepy, pliant Omega in his arms.

It was late morning when Cas and Caileigh began to wake. Before they could stir too much, Sam shushed them, urging them to stay in bed. Dean got up and returned with bottles of water and Tylenol, making sure the Omegas took the painkillers and drank a bottle of water each. The four of them stayed in bed well into the afternoon. The room filled with sunlight and soft touches.
