It was a short distance for the nice hotel in the small town to the end of their journey. San Francisco and Sam Winchester's home. Even so it was late afternoon when Dean pulled the impala into the parking lot of a motel within walking distance of Sam's house. They had taken quite some time to get up that morning, enjoying lying in each other's arms and sharing kisses and as such had had a late start. Dean knew that this evening he was likely to have much more than a couple of beers while catching up with his brother and as such there was no way he was driving to Sam's place. So now, he and Cas could walk. With a spring in his step at the thought if seeing his little brother again Dean jumped out the car and went to get him and Cas a room. At least now there was no black cloud hanging over him about this visit. After their dinner last evening Dean knew that he had found the one in Cas, his soulmate. And yes that maybe soppy, chick-flick thoughts, but what the hell, he was in love, he was allowed to be an idiot about it right? Wasn't that the rule or something? And if not, then it was now, it was Dean Winchester's first rule of love. That he was allowed to smile like a manic idiot when he thought he the man he loved being with him forever, and that was final.
Castiel on the other hand was busying thinking of the best way to get Gabriel to help him, trying to think of the words and feelings he would use when he spoke to his brother. He knew that Dean would want to go round to see Sam as soon as they had settled in there room and as such had realised that that was the best time to call his brother to him as well. He didn't want to leave Dean, but he couldn't go on like this. It was only a matter of time before the other angels started to notice his absorption with his human, and then it would take only one look for them to see the truth.
And he couldn't risk that.
He needed to have a plan so that he wouldn't be dragged away and sent to Naomi without fighting for what he and Dean had. He also didn't want his time with Dean to end, he just hoped that Gabriel would see the chance of some fun in helping him and therefore would give him his backing, after all Gabriel was an archangel and his superior, having him on his side would indeed help in the battles to come, he hoped. It was gaining Gabriel's sometimes fickle assistance that he was hesitant about. No one truly knew what he was thinking after all. He just hoped that he could succeed at bringing Gabriel to his side.
Dean couldn't wait to introduce Cas to Sam. His brother would really like Cas, once he got over the shock of Dean turning up on his doorstep with a boyfriend that was. He hadn't actually mentioned anything about Cas to Sam yet. Hmm, maybe he should have called and told him the news or something. But that didn't matter, his brother would be happy for him. With that in mind Dean pulled Cas towards their room and once inside he quickly jumped into the shower and changed his clothes, though when he came out he found Cas sitting on the bed exactly as he had left him, staring at his hand which where clasped in front of him as he rested his elbows on his knees.
"Come on Cas, get ready, we need to get to Sam's." He said in a jollying tone making Castiel turn to look at him with a puzzled look on his face.
"You want me to come with you to Sam's?" He asked confused.
"Of course Cas. I can't wait for you to meet him." Dean replied as if it was obvious. I mean why would he not what Cas with him?
"But… don't you want to talk to him alone first?" Castiel asked cautiously. He was well aware that Dean had not informed his brother of the development in their relationship. In fact Castiel didn't think that Dean had mentioned him at all to Sam.
"Course not, and anyway his wife Jess'll be there too. So if I do you can go speak to her or something." Dean replied with a wave of his hand dismissing all thoughts of private conversations with Sam. If he was honest he knew that if he went to Sam's alone his brother would insist on a 'talk' about his relationship, and while yes he had accepted that he was allowed to grin like a manic and make gooey eyes at Cas he still wasn't ready to have a personal discussion about his emotions with his brother thank you very much. So what better way to not have that than turn up with Cas' hand in his. It would answer all the questions Sam would surely have without him having to say a word. The perfect plan in Dean's mind.
"Very well." Castiel said after a moment of silence as he thought over the situation. He knew he should send Dean alone to see Sam so he could contact Gabriel, but Dean wanted him to be there, so he would be there. And if he felt a slight bit of relief at putting off his conversation with his brother, well that was to be expected in his mind.
"What is it Cas, don't you want to come met Sam?" Dean asked, he had seen Cas' hesitance about agreeing, and being Dean his first thought was that Cas didn't actually want to be with him in a serious, let's go met the family, kind of relationship.
"No of course I do Dean. Anyone who is important to you is important to me." Castiel replied quickly standing and going to his human as he felt the shift in Dean's emotions from joy to anxiety. Once he got to Dean he gently put his hands on the side of his face and pulled him to him into a gentle, loving kiss which caused a smile to appear on both their lips when they parted. Castiel couldn't believe that it had only been a few days ago he had no idea on how to kiss at all. But then Dean had been giving him many intense lessons in the art.
"Good, then quickly change into some clean and we'll get going." Dean said as he smiled even wider at his boyfriend and gently pushed him towards the bathroom so he could shower and tidy himself up.
"Very well." With that Castiel grabbed his bag and made his way into the bathroom so he could change his clothes. Though in truth he just blinked and succeeded in doing that, the rest of the time he was in there he was trying to think of when he would be able to speak to Gabriel. He would have to call his brother later this evening once Dean was asleep. With this new plan decided he made his way out of the bathroom so he and Dean could head to Sam Winchesters home. It was time to meet the human he loved's family.
