I'm so so sorry guys! Was very busy with all kinds of things, and I forgot to publish a new chapter for 2 days long... I'm so sorry. Here are 2 new chapters for you to make right what I did wrong.

Love ImmediatelyWriting!

Dean wakes up with a wet tongue in his face. "Castiel? What the fuck?" Dean opens his eyes and looks right in the face of a German Shepherd. "Oh, hi, little boy," Dean says and he pets the dog on his head. The dog sees Castiel and starts to growl. "What's wrong?" Dean asks the dog. Castiel wakes up and sees the dog as well. "Oh, you again." Castiel sighs and the dog tries to attack Castiel. Dean grabs the dog by its leash. "Hey, hey!" Dean pets the dog again. "Calm down, C-Colonel." Dean reads the name on the dog's badge. The dog starts to wag its tail and it pants as Dean starts to scratch his neck. Castiel stands up and Colonel growls again. "Is that an evil man?" Dean asks the dog; it seems to be nodding. Castiel folds his arms over each other. "Hey! Rude!" Dean looks at Castiel and back at the dog. "Could you NOT arrest him until today is over?" The dog shakes its head and growls. "Please? It's a special day and I need him to guide me," Dean says with a glance at Castiel. "Please?" Colonel growls again. "It's my birthday… just so you know," Dean tries and the dog seems to roll its eyes. It agrees – without being able to say anything – to not arrest Castiel yet, so they head to the village.

Finally arrived at the village, Dean gets hyper and walks a few meters in front of Castiel and Colonel. He turns around and makes a small jump when he sees the little stands on the sides of the streets. It looks as if everyone in the kingdom is celebrating something or other. There is decoration everywhere and the people behind the stands move a little on the music that a few street musicians are making. "C'mon, walk a little bit faster, Cas!" Dean says as he runs back and pulls on Castiel's arm. Castiel cackles and walks to a stand with the hyper Dean. "Do you have any money, Cas?" Castiel feels with his hands in his pockets. There's a few coins in there; it isn't much. "Yes," he says and he gives the money to Dean. "Here; just buy something of that." Dean thanks Castiel and runs towards a stand that sells souvenirs. Castiel finds a save spot to stand and he buys two cupcakes from the money that he found on the ground. Dean also stands in the shadow, behind a wall, with Castiel and they eat their cupcake. While eating the cupcakes, Dean shows the necklace that he bought. Castiel looks at the necklace and smiles. "It's pretty cool," Castiel says. "Yes." Dean puts the nacklace around his neck. "It's really busy here," Dean says and he looks at the huge crowd in the streets. "Can't we go somewhere quieter?" Castiel thinks for a moment and then nods. "Sure. Follow me," he says and he grabs Dean's arm so he can't lose him. "We'll go to the library."

They walk into the library and Dean sees the walls, which are covered with filled book shelves. Dean looks up and down. "Sooo maaaany books!" Dean opens his mouth and makes a little circle as he tries to take it all in. Dean's voice echoes in the huge room. Castiel looks at Dean and smiles. He's happy that Dean likes the place where only book nerds spend their time. If Dean wants to stay here, Castiel is save from all the guards and he is freed from Colonel, because dogs aren't allowed in the library. The beast is currently waiting outside. Dean looks at Castiel with a smile from ear to ear. "Can we look at some history books or something? Or maybe a spell book?" Dean asks and Castiel nods. "Of course, but I don't think they have books with spells in it." Dean nods and he runs to the history isle. When he runs towards the shelves, he bumps into another person. The boy – who's three or four years younger than Dean – falls on the floor when his body hits Dean's. "I'm sorry," Dean says and he helps the boy pick up his books. "Are you okay?" The boy nods and wipes his hair from his face. "Yeah," the boy says and he stands up. Dean awkwardly wobbles a little. "I was just getting a history book to look at," Dean says and the boy smiles. "You don't come here a lot, do you?" the boy asks. Dean shakes his head and the boy giggles. "I can see that. The history isle is that way." The boy points at a shelf on the other side of the room. Dean rubs with his hand over his neck. "Oh… I knew that," Dean uncomfortably says and turns around. The other boy smiles. "I need to go there as well. I can help you find an interesting book, if you want?" the boy offers. Dean smiles and nods. "Yes, I would like that," Dean says. As they walk towards the history books, the boy looks at Dean. "I'm Sam, by the way," the boy says and he puts his hand in front of Dean. Dean grabs his hand and shakes it. "I'm Dean." The boy looks away and back with a little bit of sorrow in his eyes. "I had a brother named Dean," Sam says. "But… I never really knew him." Dean looks at Sam as they slowly walk further. "What happened?" Sam shrugs. "I don't know. I was a baby back then. I can't remember and my parents won't tell me. They only told me he got lost," Sam explains. Dean nods softly. "Well, if you'll ever see your brother again, tell him he has a cool name." Sam giggles. "I'll do that."

They stop in front of the shelf and Sam grabs a book with Kansas History on the back. "Here, this is an interesting book. It's about the history of this kingdom," Sam says and he gives the book to Dean. "That sounds interesting, thanks," Dean says and he looks at the pretty and thick book. It has a nice, slightly gold color that glitters just a little if he holds it into the light. Sam shrugs and grabs some other books from the shelf. One of the titles says Law History. "What do you need that for?" Dean asks Sam. Sam looks at the boring-looking book. "Studying. I'm gonna study law when I'm older," Sam says. "Sounds boring, but I think it's my own way of being cool." Dean smiles. "It's not boring. I know about a hundred spells by heart," Dean says and Sam's mouth falls open. "What the…" "I've had a lot of spare time… about eighteen years," Dean says and Sam smiles sadly. "My brother would turn eighteen today." Dean looks at Sam, who looks at the books in his hand. "I'm also turning eighteen today. That's pretty cool, actually," Dean says. "I'm gonna look at those beautiful lanterns tonight. It's my present to myself." Sam smiles. "They're meant for my brother, but a little bit for you maybe. Since it's your birthday, if you know what I mean." Dean nods. "Your brother must be pretty special, if so many lanterns get launched into the sky for him, isn't he?" Dean asks Sam. "Yeah, my brother would become the king today…" Sam becomes quiet and sniffles. "What? You're a prince?" Dean asks and Sam nods. "That's awesome!" Dean says and he smiles at Sam. Sam nods again. "Yeah," he says. "It is. I should go study. I'll see you around another time." Dean nods. "Yes…" he says and Sam walks away. "Maybe."

"I'm back with a book!" Dean says and he takes a seat on the floor. Castiel copies him. "That took long," he says as Dean opens the book. Dean shrugs. "Yeah, sorry. I had a chat with a prince." Dean smiles at Castiel, who looks a little bit scared. "You're lucky he didn't see me!" Castiel says. "I'm kind of a wanted criminal, remember? I could end up in jail if they see me, which means that you won't see your pretty lanterns, because you'll be in that same jail with me." Dean scratches his eyebrow. "Oh, yeah, I didn't know that," Dean says and Castiel sighs. "Well, knifes aren't very legal, you know?" Dean's cheeks turn red. "Well, you didn't steal it, so." Castiel smiles. "I kinda did. Don't tell anyone." "Yeah! That's NOT my fault!" Castiel laughs. "Just be a little more careful about the friends you make," Castiel says.

They read a bit of the book and Dean learns a little more about the kingdom. Now he knows that Prince-Dean was kidnapped by someone and that the kingdom is about a hundred years old. Obviously it was not always ruled by the same king and queen. It's now being ruled by queen Mary and king John with their fourteen-year-old son Sam. Time flies by until it's already pretty late and it's time for Dean and Castiel to head to the boats. As they arrive at the port, they step in a wooden boat and float to the middle of the lake. They wait for it to get dark, and when it's dark, they hear noises coming from the center of the village. The castle looks gorgeous in this light. There's a golden light that comes from all the little houses around the castle and when the flying lanterns get launched up, the entire sky lights up. Dean sees how the lanterns float through the sky around their boat. Dean leans forward to push one up back into the sky. All these years he waited for this perfect moment, but what now? This was his dream, what is he going to dream about now that that dream has been fulfilled? He looks at Castiel, who has plucked two lanterns from the sky. Dean smiles. "Do you have to steal things, even in this moment?" Castiel replies with a laugh. "This is not stealing, this is making someone happy," Castiel says and he gives one lantern to Dean. They push them into the sky and watch how they turn around each other. Dean looks back at Castiel, who looks back at Dean. Castiel has bright blue eyes and they stare right into Dean's. "I guess I have something to make you happy as well," Dean says and he lets the silver knife slip out of his sleeve. Castiel looks at the knife and slowly takes it from Dean. "That's not what's making me happy at this moment," Castiel says and he sees that doesn't understand, not even a little. "I've realized that I don't need it anymore. Just this moment is enough to make me happy." Castiel puts the knife into the pocket of his trenchcoat. Dean smiles. "This has always been my dream," Dean says and he looks at the lanterns. "But what now?" Castiel shrugs. "You go and look for a new dream," Castiel says. "That's the nice thing about dreams. You can find a new one if you fulfilled the last." Dean smiles and he watches until almost every lantern has disappeared from the sky, taken by the wind to float somewhere else.

When all the lanterns are gone and the lights in the village go out, Dean and Castiel float back to the edge of the lake. Castiel sees two shadows between two trees. He steps out of the boat and looks at Dean. "Wait here. I have to do something," Castiel says. "I'll be back in a sec." Dean nods and Castiel walks away. Castiel finds Crowley and Lucifer in an open place behind the trees. "Hi, guys," Castiel says and he throws the knife on the ground. "You can have the knife, it was mean of me to steal it from you." Lucifer laughs. "That knife is useless. You have something that's worth much more," he says. Crowley walks towards Castiel. "Give us the boy and you can live." Castiel shakes his head. "I'd never give you a living person! That's just messed up!" Lucifer walks to Castiel as well and he slaps his hand onto Castiel's. "Suit yourself." Castiel collapses onto the ground. He sees Crowley and Lucifer walk into the direction where Dean is, before his vision goes entirely black.
