Relax, Castiel. Do what Balthazar said act normal around Ethan and Dean. See where things go. Cas rocketed to his desk. "Hey guys"

Dean placed a pack of Twizzlers on top of Castiel's desk, surprising his blue eyed friend. "What's this for?" Cas tilted his head to the side as he stared into Dean's forest green eyes.

"You're addicted to them and I thought you needed some cheering up after Saturday's traumatic ordeal."

Ethan opened the bag and removed two. "You're so sweet, Winchester." He offered one to Castiel, who couldn't resist and looked at his new teammate's lips which happened to be sucking on a Twizzler. This is going to be a long day.

Castiel returned his attention to Dean. He held one of Dean's hands for a few seconds. "I'm the one who should be bringing you gifts for all the times you've come to my family's rescue."

Dean blushed. "It's nothing. I happen to be around when one of you is in trouble."

Castiel handed him two Twizzlers. "Thanks," Dean's eyes lowered to Cas' mouth. The dark haired teen was nibbling on his plump lower lip.

"Can I start class now, gentlemen?" Mr. Kripke glared at the trio. "When did I give permission to eat in class?" He yanked the candy bag from Castiel's hands and tossed it inside his desk drawer.

Balthazar met up with Castiel in the boy's first floor bathroom. "So Casanova how was English?"

Castiel told him about the candy incident. "You know Cassie. There is one major thing we have to do first in order for Operation Let's Get Cas Laid to begin."

"What's that?"

"We need to find out what team Dean and Ethan play for." He started counting with his right hand's fingers. "One …Dean went out on a date with Lisa. Two… he's more butch than Rosie O'Donnell; although the lad might be overcompensating with his cowboy strut, deep voice and his sick obsession with his car."

"On the other hand, I've never heard of Ethan's conquests. He never talks about going on dates."

Castiel interrupted. "Maybe cuz he's a gentleman."

Balthazar smirked. "He was touchy with you on bowling night. Depp, Jr. is probably testing the waters." He wiggled his eyebrows.

"No offense, Balthy but you're giving me a headache overanalyzing things."

Balthazar leaned against the wall. "I'm trying to get you laid, you bloody ingrate."

"I appreciate your help but I think it would be best if I venture into this on my own. I'm going to get to know both guys better and see where things go. Like you said Dean is probably straight."

Balthazar approached his friend of two years. "You know there are other people more than willing to rock your world." He leisurely brushed a finger across Castiel's cheek. The other teen became uncomfortable and headed for the door.

"I'm starving let's get something to eat."

"Castiel, stop!" Cas turned around. "I'm sorry. I had no right. It won't happen again. I really want you to be happy." Castiel nodded before holding the door open for him.

When they reached their table in the cafeteria everyone was already eating. Ethan patted on an empty chair to his right. Castiel sat down. Dean was right in front of him now. Balthazar situated himself in between Dean and Jo. Everyone finished their lunch. Fifteen minutes remained before fifth period.

"I was watching reruns of LOST last night and let me tell you that Sawyer is one hot motherfucker," Balthazar said.

Jo stopped biting into a juicy red apple. "Your mind must be a scary place to be in."

Balthazar blew her a kiss. "Come on, who's with me? The man is sex on a stick."

Castiel rolled his eyes. He knew exactly what Balthazar was doing. He scowled at the Brit. Chuck responded in his usual fidgety way. "He is very good looking with his lean muscular build, bedroom eyes and those mouthwatering dimples."

Ash cracked up. "TMI, dude! Do you want to share something with your friends, Chucky?"

"I'm not gay but I'm not afraid to admit when a guy is hot."

"Chuck is secure in his manhood," Jimmy stated as he tapped his friend on the shoulder.

Balthazar narrowed his eyes at Dean and Ethan. "Anyone else secure in their masculinity?"

"What the fuck Balthazar? Why don't you and Chuck start Lawrence High's first I Love Sawyer Fan Club?!" Dean bellowed.

Castiel inwardly cringed. This wasn't going well. Why was Dean getting so bent out of shape? No one else seemed to mind since they were used to Balthazar's bizarre ways.

"Geez Dean, take a chill pill," Jo said.

Dean stared at the table. "I think it would be fun to see which celebrity of the same sex you're attracted to," Anna suggested.

"Cool…I'll start. I've always had a girl crush on Cate Blanchet. She seems like a classy chick and her acting rocks," Jo stated.

"She's alright but not boner worthy," Ash said.

"So who's your man crush, Mullet Boy?" the petite blonde asked.

"Captain Jean Luc Picard"

Most of the boys cackled. "The bald dude from Star Trek?" Jimmy inquired.

"That man's voice oozes sex."

"Can someone please run a fork through my ears," Jo said.

Ash continued, "We know Balthy gets a giant erection for Sawyer from LOST so we'll skip him. Cas, your turn"

Dean stared at his friend. Castiel licked his slightly chapped lips. "Johnny Depp" Dean's eyes landed on Ethan, who smirked at the moment. Ash and Jo whistled. Castiel's face was redder than a baboon's ass. He played with the plastic fork he'd used earlier to eat a salad.

As usual Balthazar butted in. "Lucky for you Lawrence High has its own Depp clone." He nodded towards Ethan. "Are you attracted to any male celeb?"

"Jakob Dylan"

"The lead singer of the Wallflowers?" Amelia asked.

Ethan nodded. "I guess I've always had a thing for blue eyes." He looked at Castiel. Across the table, Dean felt like a boiling tea kettle ready to burst. Castiel and Balthy exchanged a quick glance. The Brit winked at his friend.

Jo was about to ask Dean, who his man crush was but he was saved by the bell. "TBC," she said. The gang gathered their stuff and headed to their respective fifth period classrooms.

Dean, Ethan and Cas walked into their art class and were greeted with a sight of six pottery wheels. Ms. Masters stood from her desk and sauntered towards them. "Boys…Castiel"

The trio greeted their teacher. "From now until December I'm going to break the class into groups of three to work on a ceramic project. It will be worth fifty percent of your final class grade."

"What will we make?" Dean asked.

"Vases and other knick knacks"

"Cool…I won't have to worry about getting my mom a Mother's Day present," Ethan said.

Ms. Masters raked her eyes all over the teen's body. "Sorry the items will be auctioned off at a charity bazaar at the country club. The proceeds will go to a clinic in Haiti."

"That's a wonderful idea," Cas smiled.

"I came up with it," Ms. Masters piped in. Dean rolled his eyes. "The three of you can work together. Use the pottery wheel in the back of the room."

Castiel sat down behind the wheel. He got an A in his ceramics class junior year. Ethan sat behind him and wrapped his arms around Cas's torso. "Look at us; we're Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze!"

Ruby and two other girls giggled. Ms. Masters didn't mind the disruption in the least. Dean wanted to gag on the spot. Castiel fidgeted in his seat. Having Ethan in such close proximity was not a good idea. He chuckled a little but when he felt the other teen's hot breath against his ear, Castiel lost it. A tent formed in his cargo shorts. Thank God they were baggy! Ethan removed himself from the seat.

Castiel jumped out of the seat and asked Ms. Masters permission to go to the bathroom. "Are you ok?"

"Yes, I think lunch didn't agree with me." She handed him a bathroom pass. "Be back in five"

Castiel ran to the nearest bathroom. He checked to see if any students were present. The blue eyed boy breathed a sigh of relief. He entered the last stall and locked it. Cas banged his head against the wall. He undid his cargo shorts and lowered his briefs. He closed his eyes as he wrapped his right hand around his raging boner. Cas bit his lower lip as he smeared pre-cum around the base.

He stroked himself thinking about Dean and Ethan. Lately masturbation was his favorite pastime. He would slap the salami when he showered and at night before going to sleep. Afterwards he was in a blissful state and he was out like a log. Just when he was about to cum, someone entered the bathroom. Shit! Castiel bit his lower lip harder as cum splashed onto the stall's door. He grabbed a bunch of toilet paper to clean himself and the door. He flushed the toilet and vacated the stall.

Dean stood by the bathroom's door. Castiel's eyes widened reminding the other boy of a Simpsons character. "Is everything alright? Ms. Masters sent me to see if you fell in the toilet."

"I felt nauseous but it went away." Cas washed his hands and splashed cold water of his flushed face and neck. He gazed downwards and was relieved to see the tent had disappeared. The two friends returned to class.

When Dean and Sam got home later that afternoon, they were greeted with John packing. "You're leaving now?" Sam asked.

"Hey guys"

"How long will you be away this time?" Dean inquired.

"This case will most likely have me away for over three months."

"No fair dad. You won't be with us during the Holidays!" Sam scowled.

"Sorry kiddo, but the reward for the Ken and Barbie bank bandits has doubled. If I apprehend them, you and your brother's entire college tuition will be paid for."

John hugged Sam. Dean stood by the door. He didn't join the Kumbaya moment. Their father ruffled Sammy's hair. "When I get back I want you to invite your girlfriend over for dinner, Dean."

"Lisa's not his girlfriend, yet," Sam said.

"You never know…right son?" John's gaze locked with his oldest son's.

Dean shrugged his shoulders. "I guess"

The Winchester patriarch finished packing. "There is an emergency stash in the cookie jar. The money will remain coming in to your checking account, Dean. Remember no parties and no one is to stay over." He looked at his eldest son, who nodded his head.

Sam embraced his father good bye. Dean and John shook hands. The green eyed sibling was ecstatic. No John for an indefinite period of time. He loved it! "We're ordering pizza tonight, Sammy! I'm in such a great mood; I'll even let you order veggie pizza." He handed the fourteen year old a twenty dollar bill.

"Awesome, thanks Dean"

The night of the senior party hosted by Ruby Wexler at her parents two story Victorian home finally arrived. More than half of the Class of 2013 was present. Gabs babysat Inais in order for Jimmy to take Amelia to the party. Cas had to work so he would walk to the Wexlers'. Mrs. Olyphant's home was located two blocks from there.

Dean was bored out of his mind as he sipped a Heineken. He leaned against one of the cream wallpapered walls in the humongous living room. His eyes continued darting to the front door waiting for Cas. Ethan and Balthazar spoke about baseball. Jimmy, Ash and Chuck tasted the different flavors of the plethora of jelly shots scattered around a large corner table. Amelia, Jo and Anna danced on the designated dance floor to Usher's "Scream".

Dean was about to head towards one of the kegs, when the front door opened revealing Castiel. The Winchester licked his lips in appreciation. Some of the girls, who sat on the sofas, ogled Cas. He did look super-hot tonight. He wore black skinny jeans, a navy V-neck and black sports coat. His usually untidy hair was tamed most likely with a ton of gel. Cas' electric blue eyes clashed with Dean's. He smiled and made his way to his friend.

"Hey, Dean"

"Hi, Cas. I was about to blow this Popsicle stand. I missed you."

"I had to work late."

"You look good."

"You, too."

"Don't lie…I'm dressed like I usually do." Dean looked at his own ripped jeans, Metallica t-shirt and combat boots.

"I like how you dress, Dean." Castiel's hand covered one of his upper arms. Dean's skin tingled. They stared at each other.

"Cas…come over here!" Jimmy screamed across the room. Castiel waved at his twin. He noticed Dean remained leaning against the wall. Cas' hand caught Dean's wrist and led him across the living room with him. Castiel smiled and said hello to their friends as they walked by them. His eyes landed on Ethan, who wore a red POLO shirt and dark jeans. Ethan winked at him. Dean scowled at Depp, Jr.

"Bro you need to try these jello shots." Jimmy placed a pineapple flavored one in Cas' hand. Castiel rapidly swallowed.

"You can barely taste the liquor."

"I know right. Here you'll love the cherry and coconut ones." Jimmy handed several little cups to his twin.

Castiel gobbled four more one right after the other. "Whoa, Cas. Take it easy, man. You're going to get wasted soon. Just cuz you don't taste the booze doesn't mean there isn't a lot in them."

Cas patted Dean's cheek. "Relax; this is a party celebrating our senior year. Loosen up!"

Ash fist bumped Castiel. "Holla! To the Class of 2013!" The friends all gulped down a jello shot.

Ethan and Balthazar joined their friends. "How come Ruby's parents allow for all of this booze? Everyone present is under 21. They can get in serious trouble," Ethan stated.

Chuck answered. "Her parents are away at a conference. They have no idea there little darling is throwing this party."

"Yeah, well where did she get the money for all of this?"

"Her parents are loaded. I think her great-great grandfather invented condoms or something related. She has her own American Express Black."

"Let's get some grub. It's good to have a full stomach, when one plans on drinking a lot," Ash suggested.

The boys scarfed down chicken wings, miniature Rubens and pizza bites. Once their stomachs were satisfied, they joined the girls on the designated dance area. Jimmy twirled Amelia around. Balthazar grinded against any willing body while Jo danced with Ash and Anna paired up with Chuck, who moved around looking as if he'd just been electrocuted.

Lisa appeared and pressed her body close to Dean's. This didn't escape Castiel's attention. He glared daggers at the brunette. The hired DJ started spinning a mix of Rihanna's "Where Have You Been". All the seniors swayed to the infectious beat. Lisa provocatively plastered herself in front of Dean. Cas saw red. He grabbed Ethan and wrapped his arms around the brown eyed boy's neck. Ethan held on to Cas' waist. Dean growled.

Twenty minutes later, Castiel had another six jello shots. Dean kept guard making sure his friend didn't overdo it. Ethan told the blue eyed teen to stop. Cas pressed a cup to Ethan's mouth. "What are you the Jelly Shot Police? We're all here to have fun! Let's dance" He led Ethan to the dance floor.

For the remainder of the evening, Lisa remained Dean's Siamese twin. Castiel became the life of the party and danced with half of the female guests. A quarter after midnight, the majority of the seniors were gone. The DJ, who had been hired to spin up to midnight, was packing his equipment. Balthazar came up with an idea. "Who's up for Seven Minutes in Heaven?"

Dean rolled his eyes. This wasn't going to end well. Castiel surprised all of his friends by yelling, "Ooh me…I want to play!" He was drunk. His eyes were red rimmed and half lidded. His hair was back to its usual disarray.

Ruby grinned. "I'm in."

"The hostess herself wants to play. Her word is supreme," Balthazar excused himself. Five minutes later, he returned with a Lions' baseball cap stuffed with small scraps of paper. "Seeing as he's so excited to play; I think Cassie should go first."

Castiel jogged over to him and grabbed a folded piece of paper. He opened it and read Dean's name. The Winchester couldn't breathe for a moment. Several people whistled. Lisa glared at Cas.

"Gentlemen, this way please." Balthazar led them to a bedroom that was next to the kitchen. It was most likely the maid's chamber. "Have fun, boys" He winked at them and closed the door.

Castiel was giggling throughout the walk there. Dean rubbed his hands across his face. Would Cas kiss him? There was no way he was going to take advantage of a drunken Castiel. All of a sudden, his friend invaded his personal space. Dean licked his lips nervously. Cas looked hot as hell with his lust filled eyes. Wait a minute! Cas suddenly seemed horny. Dean thought this was wishful thinking on his part. Cas shoved him against the wall and spread his legs open. "What the fuck?"

Castiel mouth landed on Dean's neck. He started sucking and lightly biting the sensitive skin. Dean breathed heavily as Cas moved up to his chin and then his mouth. Shit Cas knew how to kiss! He caught Dean's lower lip in between his teeth and pulled at it gently. Dean's hands covered Castiel's hard ass and pushed him closer. Their erections rubbed against each other. Their make out session intensified.

Cas led Dean to the foot of the bed. He tossed the taller teen on it like a ragdoll. Dean was getting harder being manhandled by Cas. The drunk straddled him. He raised Dean's t-shirt and took in his toned abdomen. Castiel's hands roamed freely across Dean's muscular torso. "You're so fucking beautiful, Dean." Cas brushed his tongue leisurely across his stomach. Dean pulled him up and covered Cas' swollen and red mouth with his again.

His body was on fire and he couldn't get enough of Castiel's mouth and hands all over him. He removed Cas' sports coat and tossed it on the floor. Cas covered Dean's right hand and brought it to the tent in his jeans. "Dean, I want you to jerk me off." Dean swallowed hard. He was in the process of unzipping Cas' skinny jeans, when a knock was heard on the door.

"I hope the two of you are decent. I'm opening the door when I count to three," Ruby said behind the door.

Castiel didn't move. Dean gently removed him from the bed. Dean lowered his t-shirt and zipped Cas' jeans up. "Here put on your jacket." His eyes landed on Cas' bee stung lips. Why couldn't this game be called Half an Hour in Heaven instead? Cas was having a hard time putting on his jacket. Ruby opened the door and found Dean helping Castiel dress. She took in their messy hair and swollen lips. She smirked before leaving.

Dean led Castiel back to the living room. All eyes were on them. Jo couldn't believe Cas, her innocent friend had some sexy time with Dean Winchester. "Looks like someone took the game seriously."

Castiel covered his mouth and ran outside to the pool area. Dean and Ethan followed him. Castiel knelt by the pool and threw up in it. Ethan held him and soothed his back. Once the dark haired teen ceased retching, Dean asked him if he was ok. Castiel weakly nodded.

"I should take him home," Ethan suggested.

"No offense dude but my car is more comfortable. I'll lay him in the backseat."

Ethan wasn't too thrilled with the idea but reluctantly agreed. "K"

He helped Dean take Cas to the Impala. Castiel was asleep as soon as he was laid down. "I'll check up on him tomorrow," Ethan told Dean, who nodded. Jimmy came up to them.

"What happened?"

"Your brother drank too many jello shots. He threw up in the pool. Don't worry I'll take care of him," Dean said.

"Dean, can I ask a huge favor?"

"What is it, Jimmy?"

"Cas wouldn't want Inais or Gabs to see him like this. Would you mind taking him to your house?"

Fuck! Him and Cas under the same roof! Dean knew he was going to regret his answer. "Sure, man"

"Thanks, I'll pick him up tomorrow afternoon."

Fortunately, Samantha was sleeping over Kevin's tonight. That way the nosy little bastard wouldn't see Cas drunk and tell John, Dean had a friend sleep over. The Winchester woke Castiel. It wasn't easy. Once he got him inside the house, Dean pondered leaving Castiel on the couch but didn't want him to sleep in an uncomfortable position. "Cas, let's go upstairs."

He opened his bedroom door and sat Cas down on the bed. Dean removed Castiel's jacket and t-shirt and replaced them with a faded Guns N Roses one. Cas swayed a little and said he was going to throw up again. Dean swiftly removed his jeans and had Castiel put on a pair of his plaid pajama pants. Fortunately, Cas threw up in the toilet. The poor guy was pale and sweating profusely.

Dean soothed his hair. "You're not going to throw up anymore?"

Cas weakly shook his head. "Let me get you a toothbrush. Sammy always has an extra one." Dean looked in the cabinet and found a new one. He put toothpaste on it and handed it to Castiel. Cas' motor skills had flown out the window. Dean rolled his eyes and brushed the guys' teeth for him. "Now rinse" At least Castiel was able to do that. "I'm going to leave you to take a leak and wash your hands. Will you be able to do that without falling and cracking your skull open?"

"Yes," Cas said in a hoarse voice.

Ten minutes later, Dean gave Cas a glass of water and two aspirins. "Drink this so you won't feel too bad in the morning." After Castiel did as told, Dean tucked him in. He turned off the lamp and joined his crush. Dean started to doze off when he felt Castiel spoon him. The shorter teen placed his arms across Dean's torso. Dean intertwined his fingers with Cas'. He fell asleep with a smile on his face.

The following morning, sunlight filtering through the curtains in Dean's room woke the teens up. Dean gazed at the clock on his bedside table and saw it was ten o'clock. Castiel remained spooning him. "Thanks for taking care of me last night," Cas murmured huskily in Dean's ear. He kissed Dean's cheek before sitting up on the bed. The room spun around a little. "Thank God I don't feel like throwing up anymore. My head does hurt."

Dean sat up, as well and stretched his arms. "I'm going to get you a glass of orange juice and two aspirins for the headache."

Castiel felt embarrassed. He started to remember what happened between Dean and himself last night at the party. God when did he became such a sex fiend? This was all Balthazar's fault. Cas bet the sneaky bastard put Dean's name on all the scraps of paper to make sure Cas selected him. Castiel covered his eyes thinking Dean must have been disgusted by his wanton behavior.

"Here you go. This will have you feeling better in no time."

Cas thanked him and swallowed the aspirins. "Dean, about last night"

"Do you regret anything?"

Cas finally looked at him. "Not really"

Dean smiled. "Neither do I."

"Oh" Cas didn't know what to say. So did this mean Dean swung both ways?

"Take a shower and then we'll hit Al's for breakfast."

"I'd like that."

Castiel felt a lot better when they reached Al's Diner. The aroma of bacon and eggs made his stomach grumble. The two boys ate their breakfast in comfortable silence. Dean ordered a slice of apple pie after he ate scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and pancakes. "Cas, there's something I need to tell you."

Castiel sat straighter. "I don't know if Sammy ever told you about a falling out I had with my old man two years ago?"

Cas nodded. "He said that the two of you had a nasty fight and you left to live with your Uncle Bobby."

Dean rubbed a hand in the back of his neck. "I'm going to give you the Cliff notes version. Since the age of twelve I've been attracted to boys. I never told my dad cuz he's a homophobic prick. One night when he was away at work, I brought a guy over to the apartment he rented for Sammy and me."

"Was he your boyfriend?"

"Yes, he was the only boyfriend I've ever had. That night we were going to do it for the first time. Things got hot and heavy." Dean shredded a paper napkin into tiny pieces. He cleared his throat. "I went down on him and that's when John popped out of nowhere. He was livid. I've never seen him that pissed."

"What did he do?"

"He kicked Marco out and told him that if he ever saw him around me ever again he would shoot him with his rifle. Then he beat the living shit out of me. He kept screaming that no son of his was going to be a queer and disgrace the Winchester family."

"Does Sam know?"

"He was asleep when all of this happened. I think he woke up when the worst part was over."

Castiel's hand covered one of Dean's. "I'm so sorry."

"He said he didn't want me to be a bad example for Sammy so he called my Uncle Bobby and had him come to pick me up."

"Has your father changed his mind about you now?"

"Yeah right; the reason I'm living with them is because he doesn't want to leave Sammy alone. He knows I'd give my life for the kid."

"Is that why you asked Lisa out?"

"That had to be one of my dumbest ideas. John actually thinks I'm into girls now and that Marco was a phase."

"Have you kept in touch with Marco?" Cas was frightened to hear the answer.

"We communicate via Face Book and text once in a while."

The waitress interrupted them with the check. Cas paid for their meals and left her a five dollar tip. The two boys headed outside. Now it did feel like autumn. The temperature was in the upper sixties. Dean was going to suggest they go see a movie, when someone screamed his name. He gazed across the street and received the shock of a lifetime.

A 5"11 guy with ebony hair and golden eyes about their age jogged towards them. He flashed a bright smile at Dean and embraced him tightly. "Your Uncle Bobby told me where you were living now."

"My God…I didn't think I'd ever see you again." Dean said into the guy's neck. Cas stood awkwardly not knowing what to do.

Dean released his hold from the teen. He turned around with a weird look on his face. "Cas…this is the guy I was talking to you about. Marco…meet my friend Castiel."
