Chapter 10
Caleb made his way up the stairs panting slightly as he looked around worriedly. "Sam?" Sam looked up and reached out for Caleb. Caleb made his way over. "What's wrong? Cameron said you ran. What happened?" Sam just clung to him, needing someone who wasn't mad at him. Caleb held him close and sighed. "What happened Sam? Come on. Talk to me!"
"Sorry, sorry. Messed up." Sam whispered, curling as close to Caleb as he could.
Caleb grumbled and held him close. "How'd you mess up?"
"He was seen with a demon in New York by another hunter." Bobby answered when Sam didn't. "Apparently the idjits been using demons to hunt down anyone to do with that Skynet thing. Freaked out when we realised it."
"And as usual he ran instead of facing the issue." John added.
Caleb sighed and knocked Sam on the head gently. "Bitch."
Sam's head shot up and he stared at Caleb hopefully. He called him Bitch..."Caleb?" He whispered.
"Yeah?" Caleb gave him a goofy grin.
Sam choked back a sob and pulled him into a crushing hug. "You're back." He sobbed in relief.
Caleb hugged him back and relaxed against him. "Yeah, I'm back Sammy."
"But how?" Sam asked, turning his head to kiss Caleb's temple.
Bobby smiled and moved away, figuring they needed time alone. He glanced at John wondering if the kid would stay, be part of the family or leave.
"Cameron." Caleb replied, just holding Sam. "You know how she is."
John watched silently, unsure if he should stay or go.
"What do you give a Terminator as a thank you gift?" Sam asked and then looked at John, holding his hand out to him again.
John sighed and moved over to get in on the family bonding moment. "No clue."
Sam smiled at John, tugging him into the hug. "An oil change?" Sam suggested with a shaky grin. "You left Dean downstairs alone?" He asked Caleb.
"Cameron's exercising his wings so they don't atrophy since they're still new." Caleb replied. Sam nodded content to cuddle with two of his brothers for a while. Caleb smiled a bit and nuzzled against John. "You okay?"
"Sore and tired. I'm so sorry Caleb; I never thought...do you remember not remembering?" Sam asked quietly.
"Yeah. It was a nice mental vacation."
"Not mad at me? It was my fault."
"Not mad at you." Caleb purred.
Sam sighed and relaxed, cuddling with them as he slowly drifted off to sleep. John sighed and got comfortable, cuddling in and taking a nap himself. Caleb stayed awake to watch over them. Dean smiled happily when he saw his brothers all cuddled up together. He walked over and tried to figure out where he could squish in.
Caleb looked over at Dean and raised an eyebrow. "Wings working?"
"Better." Dean told him, wriggling to get onto Caleb's lap.
Caleb grunted. "You're heavy..." Dean pouted but shifted so some of his weight was on Sammy who cracked an eye open briefly before going back to sleep. Caleb chuckled. "Always have to cuddle huh Dean?" Dean smiled and nuzzled him. "Should I take that as a yes?" Caleb asked, nuzzling back. Dean nodded and gave him a quick kiss. Caleb kissed him back, rubbing his neck gently. "You're such a kid."
"Trying not to." Dean whispered, feeling like he was failing them.
"I think it's cute." Caleb chuckled.
"So you're not mad about it? You were weird about it before." Dean cuddled closer.
"I'm fine with it now." Caleb replied, running his hand through Dean's hair. Dean sighed and began to purr, leaning into his touch happily. Caleb chuckled. "Family... nest... right?"
"Mmmm hmmm." Dean purred in answer, arching his head into Caleb's touch. Their Caleb was back.
"Why you so happy?"
"Our Caleb back." He mumbled.
"Didn't like the other Caleb?"
Dean thought about it. "Yes, like you better though." He finally decided.
"Oh? Why?" Caleb asked as he nipped at Dean's ear.
"Know us." He whimpered, eyes closing at the nipping. Caleb smiled and bit down playfully before pulling away and hiding his face in Dean's neck. Dean mewled at the bite but then pouted when Caleb stopped. "Don't stop." He pleaded. Caleb shook his head no, playing shy. Dean whined, nudging at Caleb, not knowing why Caleb was being like that.
Sam opened an eye and smiled sleepily as he saw Caleb playing with Dean. His feet were throbbing but he could ignore it for now. Caleb looked up at Dean with the most innocent expression he could give. Dean nuzzled at him, kissing the tip of Caleb's nose with a smile. Caleb giggled and hid his face again. Dean frowned, was Caleb sick again? Or just playing? Caleb tickled Dean from behind then pretended it wasn't him. Dean laughed at the tickle, turning to tickle Caleb back. Caleb squirmed and grinned. He was obviously playing. Sam yawned and then reached over, tickling Caleb as well. Caleb whined as Sam teamed up against him. Dean looked at Sam and smiled happily, making Sam smile in return. Caleb huffed and pouted.
"Stop squirming you jerks." John mumbled.
Sam hugged John. "Sorry Brat." He whispered. "Wanna say hi to Dean?" John raised his hand in a half hearted wave before it flopped down. He wanted to sleep! Sam grinned and with a quick surge of power all four of them were curled on the large bed downstairs.
John sat up in shock at that. "Whathehell!"
Dean grinned and moved to hug John, cuddling around him. "Bed more comfy to sleep in." He said as Sam reached out, a pair of sweatpants floating over so he could pull them on for John's sake.
"Just sleeping John." Sam assured him.
John blinked as he got arms wrapped around him. He looked at Dean. "Not gonna lemme go are you Jerk?"
Dean grinned and shook his head, shifting to tuck John's head under his chin, purring softly to help sooth him back to sleep. John sighed and relaxed.
"Dean's got a new teddy bear." Caleb snickered.
Sam playfully swatted Caleb and pulled him into a hug, nuzzling behind his ear. "Shh, let them sleep."
"Make me." Caleb pouted. Sam pondered that, could he? He hesitantly reached for Caleb with his powers, willing him to go to sleep. Caleb groaned and suddenly relaxed. "No... fair..." he moaned as he passed out. Sam blinked in surprise but wrapped his arms around Caleb's lax body, settling down to sleep himself.
Caleb was still dead to the world in the morning when the others woke, curled up against Sam. Sam yawned and nuzzled at Caleb, nudging him with his powers, wanting him to wake up too.
Caleb woke and blinked but was too relaxed to get up. "Hmm...?"
"Morning kitten." Sam whispered, kissing the back of Caleb's neck even as Dean crawled closer, John cradled in his arms but awake, making Sam grin at the sight.
"Not a baby." John mumbled as he was cradled.
Sam chuckled and reached over to pat his leg. "Well you are the youngest and most breakable."
"Am not... all we need is a superstrong magnet and Caleb's a blank slate again..."
Sam's eyes widened in shock and he looked at Caleb. "You are not allowed near any magnets, ever." He stated firmly. John snickered. Caleb just stared at Sam like he was insane. Dean was nodding in agreement with Sam, no magnets for Caleb.
John started to get up. "I'll get the fridge magnets!"
Dean snarled and pinned John to the bed. No way! John yelped in surprised and tried to squirm free. Dean glared at him. "No hurting Caleb!"
"Just gonna see if they stick to his noggin like they do Cameron's!" John said as he slid out from under his shirt and away from Dean. He stuck his tongue out and bolted up the stairs. Dean took off after him, being faster he beat him to the kitchen, blocking John from the fridge and hissing at him in warning. John feinted right then dove past Dean. Dean spread his wings, blocking the fridge completely as he hissed again. John glared at Dean as he hissed at him. "Whatcha gonna do wings?"
"Won't let you." He hissed.
"You don't scare me bro." John grinned.
Dean hissed again, wings flaring as he got ready to do something he'd never done to John before, use his powers on him. No one was allowed to threaten Sam or Caleb.
John sighed and relaxed. "Dean... it's a joke! Seriously, those magnets aren't gonna do anything to Caleb."
Dean stared warily, not sure if John was trying to trick him or not. John reached out to touch the membrane of Dean's wings. Dean gasped and whimpered at the touch, his wings were so sensitive.
John jerked his hand away. "Sorry! Did I hurt you?"
Dean shook his head, tucking his wings back in to be safe. He knew John liked girls even if he didn't understand and he didn't want to upset him.
John nodded and darted his hand behind Dean and grabbed one of the magnets. "Look... flimsy... wouldn't even stick to Cameron." He showed Dean. Dean bit his lip, looking from John to the magnet, unsure. "Cameron!" John yelled as he handed the magnet to Dean.
Cameron made her way in, cocking her head to the side. Dean stared at the magnet as if it were a dangerous snake. John couldn't help but laugh at Dean's expression. Dean looked up at him, hurt that John was laughing at him.
John cleared his throat. "Sorry." Dean reached out to John, wanting a hug. John pulled him into a hug. "You big baby."
"Am not." Dean mumbled, nuzzling at John.
"Are too."
Cameron just stood there, unsure of why she was called.
"You gonna try and put the magnet on Cameron?" John asked Dean after a while.
Dean shook his head. "Cameron John's, don't wanna hurt her."
"You won't hurt her. I promise."
Dean looked from John to Cameron and then at the magnet in his hand. Cameron cocked her head to the side. Dean swallowed but slowly reached toward her with the magnet. The magnet dropped the second he let go. It was too weak to attach to the metal. She blinked at Dean. Dean watched it fall and then looked back at John, biting his lip and looking down.
"What's wrong Dean?" John raised an eyebrow.
"S...sorry." He mumbled, wrapping his wings around himself.
"For what?" John grabbed the magnet and popped it back on the fridge.
"Was gonna..."
John just looked at him confused. Dean looked away, ashamed that he had nearly attacked John, his little brother.
John looked at Cameron confused. "Dude I think you're still going through puberty... acting like a girl."
"Thought you were threatening Caleb, bonded." Dean added, hoping John would understand and he wouldn't have to say what he'd almost done.
John thought for a moment and nodded to himself. "That's cause you're a big girl..." He grinned to Dean.
"Am not." Dean gave him a small smile.
"Are too. Look at you hiding behind yer wings." He poked a wing gently. Dean moaned at the touch but retracted his wings. "See? Big girl!"
"Am not, don't touch them please."
"Why not?"
"Cause don't like me that way." Dean told him, shifting uncomfortably.
"Huh... oh. Oh!" John cleared his throat and looked away. Dean reached out to touch his arm, hoping John wasn't upset. John looked at Dean and reached up to mess up his hair. Dean smiled and relaxed, happy that John wasn't upset about it. "Goober." John chuckled as he gently pushed his head away. Dean smiled and darted in to kiss John's cheek before darting off downstairs. "Hey! NO FAIR!"
Dean laughed but then jumped onto the bed with Sammy and Caleb.
Caleb raised an eyebrow at Dean. "What did you do now?" Dean just grinned and cuddled into Caleb's side. Caleb laughed and tickled Dean's wing. Dean writhed and moaned at the touch to his wing "Like that huh?" Caleb smirked. Dean whimpered, wanting more. Caleb gently pulled a wing from where Dean had it hidden and curled up under it like a blanket. "I remember feeling safe this way." Dean spread his wing more fully over Caleb, nuzzling him. Caleb nuzzled back and looked to see if Sam was gonna join them. Sam smiled and shifted closer, wrapping his arms around them. Caleb relaxed and purred. "This is heaven... right here."
Sam chuckled and kissed him gently. "Agreed."
Caleb smiled a bit and traced Dean's face. "My favorite blanket." Dean smiled and kissed him too. Caleb leaned into the kiss and relaxed. "Missed you."
"Didn't go anywhere, you did." Dean whispered, nuzzling at him.
"You went upstairs to fight the evil forces of John Connor." Caleb teased. Dean burrowed into Caleb, hiding his face in shame. "What... what's wrong Dean?"
"Thought...thought he gonna hurt you. Couldn't let him."
"You were gonna lust bomb him weren't you?" Dean nodded. Caleb laughed. "Poor Bobby if he walked in on that!"
Sam shook his head. "Poor John if he'd been hit! He doesn't like guys..."
Caleb couldn't help but snicker. "He likes metal."
"Is that...I mean does she have...the equipment?" Sam asked.
"Skynet wanted the perfect Terminator droid. Of course she has all the equipment. Well, for the act... not for conceiving."
"You're telling me that John and Cameron could have sex?" Sam asked in disbelief and then he grinned. "Tempting to have Dean do it...John needs to get laid."
"Cause Cameron crushing him is funny?" Caleb asked.
"Why would she crush him?"
"You have any idea how much she weighs?"
"So John would lie on top." Sam explained. "Poor kid, he's a teen and the only females around are his Mom and Cameron."
"Let him be." Caleb mumbled nuzzling into Dean's chest. Dean smiled and petted Caleb's hair. Caleb purred softly. Sam cuddled closer, stroking Caleb's back while leaning in to kiss Dean. "Playing protect the glitch tonight?" Caleb asked.
"Just got you back." Sam pointed out.
"Never want me to go?" Caleb purred.
"Never." Dean agreed, nuzzling and purring at him.
"What if I die?" Caleb looked up at Dean.
"You wont, bonded." Dean told him.
"How can you be sure?"
"Am." Dean told him, hugging Caleb. Sam gently stroked up and down his spine.
"We won't lose you." Sam whispered in his ear.
Caleb sighed and curled around Dean. "Not so sure."
"Shh, not gonna let anyone hurt you." Sam promised.
"Gonna keep me in a gilded cage?"
"It's an idea." Sam teased, still stroking his back soothingly.
"Not a baby." Caleb yawned. "State of the art killing machine."
"Mmm hmmm." Sam hummed in agreement.
"Patronizing me." Caleb pouted.
"No." Sam told him, moving a hand to rub his side.
"Are too." Caleb blinked up at Sam.
"No I'm not. Just rest Caleb." Sam told him, kissing him softly.
"No." Caleb pouted, he wanted to be petulant.
Dean giggled at the pout, moving to kiss it away. "Caleb needs to sleep, make sure you're all better."
"I don't wanna sleep!" Caleb whined.
"Why not?" Dean asked, nuzzling him.
"Cause I like the attention?" Caleb nuzzled back. "Glad to not be the boss again."
"You weren't the boss when you forgot." Sam pointed out, nudging at Caleb a little with his powers.
"Was boss before." Caleb yawned, relaxing more, his eyes drooping. Sam and Dean kept up the gentle, soothing touches. "Cheaters..." Caleb yawned and nuzzled under Dean's wing.
Dean smiled and pet Caleb's hair. "Are not." Caleb didn't answer; he was dead to the world again. Dean smiled and kissed the top of Caleb's head before replacing his wing with a normal blanket and crawling over to nuzzle at Sammy. "Hungry." he whispered and Sam pulled him closer.
Sam kissed him, shifting around so Dean was laid out on his back. He gently ran his hands over Dean's body, making him whimper in need. "Shh Dean, gonna feed you." He promised before kissing him again. Sam kicked his sweatpants off and just rubbed against Dean for a while, making him moan and whimper before finally moving to line up and thrust inside gently. Dean cried out as Sam entered him, wanting and needing more. Sam picked up speed, kissing and nipping at Dean's skin as he went. Dean's eyes glazed over and he started to feed off Sam.
Sam dragged it out as long as he could, enjoying the time having Dean to himself but eventually he came and Dean followed. Thanks to Sam's nudge Caleb slept through the whole thing. Sam yawned and shifted them around to include Caleb in their cuddle pile before drifting off to sleep. Caleb curled with the closest warm body. Dean just snuggled with them as he slowly came down from his feeding high, he wasn't sleepy. He stretched his wings over them for extra warmth. Caleb nuzzled against the membrane and purred softly.
