Eight Years Later
"I've got to run to the store, need anything?" Jo asked Cas as she picked up Sophie and handed her to Cas.
Cas smiled and shook his head, "No," he said as he cradled Sophie in his arms. Sophie was their baby. She was seven months old and she was a handful, but Cas loved her.
Jo smiled and placed a sloppy kiss on Cas' cheek, "Ok, text me if you change your mind," she said as she slung her purse over her shoulder and walked outside.
Sophie giggled and squirmed in Cas' arms. Cas smiled and walked into the kitchen, he sat her down in her booster chair and pulled out some baby food. Sophie giggled some more and clapped her hands. Cas grabbed a baby spoon and popped the lid of the baby food can.
He fed her until she decided she was done and wanted up. Cas picked her up and took her into her room. He put her down in her play pin and she crawled over to her toy bin. She pulled out a necklace. Cas frowned when she started chewing on it. "What do you have there?" he asked as he reached out slowly to grab it. Sophie too it out of her mouth and handed it to him.
Cas wiped it off on his shirt and looked at it. It was Deans. How did this get in there? He asked himself. He smiled as he remembered things about Dean, like his smile, his hair, his everything. Cas quickly shook the images out of his head. He tucked the dog tag into his shirt pocket and jumped when he heard someone place a hand on his shoulder. "Hey Jo," he said as he got up. "You're back already?" he asked.
"I was only gone for thirty minutes, go put the groceries away," she said as she picked up Sophie.
Cas did as told and walked to the kitchen. "Hey, I think I'm going to go out for a bit, maybe get a drink, is that ok?" Cas asked as he put the milk in the fridge.
"Ya, that's fine," Jo said as she walked into the kitchen, "Did you already feed her?" She asked.
Cas nodded and threw the last plastic bag away. He grabbed his keys, "I'll be back soon, love you," he said as he pecked Jo's cheek.
Jo smiled, "Love you too," She said.
Cas walked outside and got in his car. He started the engine and drove to the cemetary. He did a sad smile as he approached Dean's grave. "Hey Dean, it's not like you can hear me or anything, but there's a chance," he said as he sat down. "Well, I haven't said hi in a while, so hi," Cas laughed a little, "I found this, well not me but Soph," he said as he pulled Dean's necklace out of his pocket. "You probably don't know who Sophie is, she's my child. She's only seven months old, she's really nice and I think she would love you. Sorry I didn't bring you flowers or anything, even though no part of you is here. I just wanted to leave this here, I though it would be the right thing to do," Cas said as he looked at the necklace in his hand. "I love you," he whispered as he dug a small hole and placed the necklace in it. He decided to stay there for a little longer.
Dean smiled and reached his hand out to touch Cas, his hand went through him, "I love you too," he said.
Cas shivered a little and wrapped his coat tighter around him, "Well, if you can hear me I guess I'll keep talking. I haven't talked to Sam in a while, he's probably doing fine though. Real smart. He's nineteen now I belive, he's probably in college or something. John and Maria are doing fine, they moved to California with Sam last summer," Cas laughed and shook his head, "You can't hear me," he said as he got up. He brushed the dirt off his jeans and got up.
"I love you Dean," he said as he walked to his car.
