Noy mine... Just saying
Chapter 7
Dean was now lying in the living room couch with ice on his head. And he was complaining.
"Couldn't you had done Sam? You know I don't like all your mojo crap." he said loudly putting the ice back on his head.
Castiel ignored him and continued to look at a book that was sitting on a table in the middle of the dinning room. Bella was sitting in one of the chairs still kind of confused about who was after her.
She looked up to see that Castiel was frowning about something. That simple frown took her breath away that she was glad she was sitting down. She blinked a couple of times and cleared her throat. Castiel looked up from the book curiously.
He sure was not human. He might seem human but there was no way he was. Especially with the powers he had used in front of Bella.
Bella wasn't sure how to ask him without being rude but she was dying to know. How was it that he could make her forget all the bad things that had happen to her? How could he at times make her forget Him? She knew it was impossible but he had. For periods of time it seem like she was free from all that she knew and she was sure it was his doing.
"Bobby, I have a really good question." Dean said from the living room.
Sam, Castiel and Bobby were doing research, trying to figure out how it was that Bella could do what she did. So far they had come up with nothing. Bella had not told them about the other encounters with other people that could not get into her head either. She wasn't ready to bring Him up yet. She could talk about the family but not Him.
"What do you want. All you have done is complain about Cas and the usage of his powers." said Bobby flipping the pages on a book. Once again Castiel started smiling.
"Well you would be pissed off to if it had been you!" Dean said getting up from the couch and walking towards the dinning room where everyone was at. After Dean had fallen down, he had hit his head on the floor pretty hard. Castiel had woken him up and together Castiel and Sam had helped him up the stairs into the living room. Bella had brought him some ice after Sam had told her.
Dean walked up to Bobby and started reading over his shoulder. He did this for a few seconds before he turned to Castiel and looked at him and then Sam.
He seen to forget his question till Castiel said "Your question?" Castiel did not even look up.
"Oh! Yeah. Uh… How in the world did you get up the stairs by yourself?" said Dean pointing at the door that lead to the stairs that he was talking about.
Bobby looked up from the book, turned his wheelchair and stared at Dean. "That is the very good question you have?" he said. "I have a better question: Why haven't asked any questions?" Bobby said turning his chair to face Bella.
Bella looked up surprised by his question. She thought about it and said "Well I do have questions but I'm not sure how to ask and Dean, and Sam never answer anything I ask."
Bobby threw both the brothers a look before he turned to Bella "Well just because those two are not answering doesn't mean that me and Cas won't answer." he said turning his chair towards the book so he could keep reading.
"Ask anything you want and someone better answer." Bobby said.
Castiel had stopped reading to look at Bella waiting for a question.
Bella wasn't even sure where to begin so she begin with the least complicated question.
"Why do they call you Cas?" Bella asked Castiel.
Before Castiel could answer Dean said from the kitchen "Castiel is to long, especially when we were yelling at him… well when I was yelling at him." he said as he dug in the cooler for something.
"So it's a nickname?" Bella asked.
"Its their nickname for me. Yes." Castiel said looking at Dean.
"Can I call you that?" Bella asked looking at her hands on the table.
"You may." Castiel answered nodding his head. Bella looked up to see him looking a her.
"Before you ask anything else," Dean interrupted "All these questions better not be about Cas." Bella blushed at his statement "And me and Sammy here are free agents." he said and winked at her. Sam looked up at this and shook his head at his brother.
"You can never leave any girl alone, can you?" asked Sam looking at his brother. "Don't worry, my brother hits on anything with legs and boobs."
"Hey! That's not true!" Dean said. He was now sipping on a beer leaning against the wall, studying Bella over.
"Ignore Dean." Bobby said half reading a book, half paying attention to what was going on in the room. "Keep asking questions."
"Yeah don't mind me. I'll just sit here and do nothing." Dean said taking another sip of the beer.
"Ok…. What's after me?"
Everyone froze what they were doing and they all looked at each other. No one said anything. Bobby looked at the book in front of him and placed his hands on either side of the book.
"This is going to be hard to believe." he began "but we need you to keep an open mind especially about what you saw with Castiel and the thing that was pretending to be your father."
Bobby looked around and saw the brothers looking at each other. Castiel had stopped looking at his book and was paying close attention to Bella and what she was doing.
"She knows about vampires." Castiel said suddenly.
Bella flinched when she heard the word vampire. She didn't think she was ready for that part of the conversation.
"How?" Dean asked looking at Bella.
"I…uh… meet them where I use to live. I don't feel well. Can I… go?" Bella said uncomfortable.
Bobby looked at her before he said "Third door on the left. You can sleep there." he pointed down the hall.
Bella got out of her chair and walked as fast as she could without being rude. She open the door and found a simple bed with a pillow and blanket on top. She ran to the bed and threw herself on it. She cried herself to sleep that night.
She wasn't ready to let go but at the same time she wanted to let go. She wanted to be able to look at boys and not feel guilty. She wanted to be able to think His name and not feel a gash in her chest. But most of all she wanted to be happy.
Bella woke up in the middle of the night, not sure where she was. Then it came back in a flash. She was suppose to find out what was after her but Cas had brought up vampires. She felt the familiar tightening of her throat and sat up.
She need some water to go back to sleep so she crawled out of bed and open the door quietly. She looked out of her room to see that there was one light on in the living room and so she followed it.
She saw Dean on the couch but didn't see Sam anywhere. Bella figure that she had taken Dean usual place to sleep which left him to sleep in the living room. She made her way to the kitchen when she saw Castiel outside through one of the windows.
She had forgotten that he didn't sleep so it took her by surprise when she saw him standing outside looking at the sky. She was thinking about joining him or not, when he turned and saw her standing in the living room. She didn't have a choice now that Cas had seen her, she thought. She made her way across the living room slowly so she wouldn't make much noise and wake up Dean.
She opened and closed the door quietly and turned to face Cas. He was now looking at the sky as if he was waiting for something. She wasn't sure what to say so she went to sit on one of the chairs that was there and looked around the porch that she sat in.
It was quiet except for the wind that was making its way across the yard. She felt herself relax more than she had since yesterday and she realized that the possession of Charlie had just happen yesterday.
Bella looked at Cas but his back was turned still looking at the sky.
She was wondering what he was thinking about when he said "We have yet to tell you what is after you." Bella didn't say anything.
She wasn't sure if that meant that Cas was going to tell her right now or if she was going to have to wait till the morning for either Dean or Sam or even Bobby to tell her.
Bella wasn't totally comfortable with Dean or Sam yet. She had only met them a day ago, and even if she had spent all day with them, she didn't know anything about them except their name and that they were fake FBI. Bell knew even less about Bobby who she had just met today.
Cas on the other hand, had been there on the day everything had changed for her. When He had decided to leave, Cas had been there to help her. Even if it had only been three times she had seem him before all this mess, she trusted him. But she didn't know much about him except is name and that he had powers.
"Are you going to tell me?" asked Bella.
Cas turned around to look at her.
"They agreed that it would be better if I told you." Cas said still looking at her. He walked over to were Bella was sitting and took a seat next to her. The cleared his throat but didn't say anything.
"Why did they say that?" Bella asked looking at him. Even as she asked he question she studied him over. He still had the same tux with the same tan jacket. He had that glow to him again like he had in the forest and she wondered how he did it.
"I'm not sure. Dean laughed and said that you had it bad for me but I'm not sure what that means." Cas said seriously. "What do you have that is so bad?"
Bella bushed so much she was sure she was going to burst in flames. "I'm not sure." she lied. She looked down at her hand which were in her lap not sure how to continue.
"Is it normal to turn red?" Cas asked tilting his head to one side. Bella looked up and saw his hand move up reaching towards her face to touch her cheeks. She couldn't move. She was torn between letting him touch her or moving away. It was to late.
His hand was touching her cheek softly, running his fingers back and forth looking at where his fingers was touching.
For the first time in a very long time she felt a spark. It surprised her so much, she jumped back a few inches from his hand. Cas must have felt it to because he pulled back his hand a few inches at the same time Bella jumped back.
They both looked at each other. Then Cas looked at his hand and then lowered it and sat back on the chair. Bella touched her cheek and looked towards the front of the house.
"Dean told me about personal space. My apologizes." Cas said looking at Bella. He held his hands together but kept rubbing the fingers that had touched her cheeks.
"Its ok…" Bella said still blushing. She couldn't tell Cas that she wanted him to touch her, that she wanted him to kiss her. Bella wasn't even sure where all these feelings were coming from. She decided to change the subject not knowing what was going on between them. "So… uh… can you tell me what is after me?"
"The thing that was in your father, that smoke that you saw come out, is what Dean, Sam, and Bobby hunt. They go all around the country looking for things that are hurting people and they kill them." he paused and looked at Bella to see if she was understanding.
"But what is it?" Bella asked. She actually wanted to know what was after her now. "Why are Dean and them hunting them?"
"They smoke thing you saw is a demon." Cas said.
Bella looked at him like he had grown a second head and had to try very hard to keep an open mind like Bobby had said a few hours ago.
"What do you mean?" Bella said.
"The smoke goes in anybody and takes over the body and gives it strength, and other abilities. But they don't seem to work on you. Like your blocking the use of their abilities on you." Cas said once again staring at her. "How are you doing it?"
"Doing what?" Bella responded.
"You block demons out. You block me out. How?"
"I honestly don't know what you are talking about." said Bella "Wait, are you a demon? You have all that power stuff…"
"No, I am not a demon. I am something else." he said. Cas had gotten up from his chair and was now looking at the stars again.
Bella could tell there was something going on in his head. Some kind of arguing.
Bella walked up to him and stood by his side looking at the sky with him. She could see all the stars shining really bright but the moon was no where to be seem.
"What are you?" Bella whispered. She didn't know if he was going to answer or if his answer was going to be believable. But then she thought she had seen him do some amazing things that no one else could do.
"I…" he hesitated "I am an Angel of the Lord."
