Chapter 10: No Sabriel
A/N: Okay, peeps. This is the non-Sabriel Chapter 10. I'm not going to have to do this for any of the other Chapters because I'm not planning on making Sabriel a huge part in this story. This story is primarily about Cas and Dean and I'm going to keep it that way. I hope you enjoy this :D I love you all!
Sam woke up the next morning and looked over at the other bed, watching Dean snuggle up next to Cas. He smiled. It was so cute that Cas wouldn't let anyone else care for him. A sudden idea came to him, and Sam got off the bed and grabbed his phone. He turned off the sound and started to take pictures of Cas and Dean. Ha. This would be great blackmail later. Stirring came from the bed, and Sam quickly stowed his phone away into his pocket. Dean would kill him if he got caught taking pictures of the two of them.
Dean woke up to the sun shining brightly into the hotel room. He yawned and stretched, instantly looking down to ensure he hadn't crushed Cas in his sleep. The tiny angel was still asleep, his little fist balled in Dean's shirt. Dean smiled at how cute the baby looked. It really was adorable. As if sensing Dean's gaze, Cas woke up, stretching and yawning, then opening his eyes and blinking a few times in the light. He looked up saw Dean watching him.
"De…" he said sleepily. Dean smiled and couldn't help but pick up him up. Cas yawned and stretched again, nuzzling into Dean's shirt. The hunter put a soothing hand on the baby's back. He heard a muffled snort from the other bed and looked over at Sam. His brother was still asleep, and smiling slightly as he snuggled a pillow. Dean almost laughed, seeing his brother's gigantic form hunched around the tiny pillow. Dean looked around the room and noticed that he didn't see Gabriel anywhere. Hmm. That was strange.
Cas was slowly waking up, becoming more and more aware of the gnawing hunger in his stomach. He stretched back and poked at Dean's face. When the hunter looked down at him Cas whined a little. Dean seemed to understand immediately.
"Hold on, Cas, I just gotta change you first." Ugh. Cas just wanted food. He hated how awkward it was when Dean changed him. It made the angel extremely uncomfortable, but he supposed it was necessary. It was over rather quickly, though, because Dean was getting steadily faster at it. As Dean picked him back up, he asked him.
"So what is it? Bottle or food?" Cas pursed his lips, thinking. Food would fill him up faster but a bottle would be easier for Dean. Cas looked up and Dean and concentrated
"Ba-ba." Okay, that wasn't at all what he wanted to say. Dean nodded, though, understanding anyway. Cas watched as Dean walked into the kitchen and began to prepare a bottle. The angel noticed that Dean didn't read the side of the formula container anymore. A sudden rush of gratitude flooded through the little angel. He was so grateful to Dean for doing all of this for him because he couldn't do it himself. The hunter had literally dropped everything to come and help him. Cas smiled and now, more than ever, he wished that he could talk so that he could tell Dean exactly how grateful that he was. Never before had he wanted to say words more than he wanted to say 'thank you' in that moment. He resolved to try.
"Ank ooo." Dean looked down at Cas, almost copying the angels confused head-tilt.
"What was that?" the hunter asked.
"I think he said 'Thank you.'" Gabriel said, appearing out of nowhere. Dean scoffed.
"What, are you fluent in baby now?" The hunter didn't even flinch anymore. He was getting used to him randomly popping up. Gabriel shook his head.
"Nope, just a guess. That's what I heard." The archangel was sucking on a lollipop and pulled off of it with a 'pop'. Dean rolled his eyes and continued to make the bottle.
"Where were you this morning?" Dean asked. Gabriel smiled.
"Aww did you miss me, Dean-o?" Gabriel teased. Dean rolled his eyes again and shook his head. Dean heard movement in the general direction of the beds. Sam was finally awake. As soon as Cas was happily sucking on the bottle Dean turned around.
"So, you bitches ready to hunt some witches?"
