Hello my angels and demons. I would like to thank tardis-impala-221b-merlin, abovely girl, AngelisticSatan, Tiddo-mus and spnfankat81 for the wonderful reviews.

So here is the next chapter, I hope you like it. And before you read it I would like to apologise for the really bad joke at the end, I just couldn't not, you know?

Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural.

After their love making Castiel knew he needed to leave (no, don't go Cassie). Dean was meeting Charlie that evening and as much as he wanted to go with him, he knew he couldn't. (Why not hu?) They both needed their space to think about what had happened and what they had agreed to, plus he needed time so that he could make sure he didn't accidently show affection for Dean in public. He had promised to keep it private, and that meant he needed to take the time so he could close his feelings up in a box before they met outside of Dean's apartment again. (Oh okay, I'll let you off, this time.)

And so Dean and Castiel made their bitter sweet farewells, Dean finding he a had strange feeling inside him about Cas going. It was… well it was like he didn't want him to go. But why should he feel that way? (Umm, maybe cos you like him? just putting it out there.) Yeah sure they had had a fantastic day, he had to admit that (yeah you bloody well do need to admit it). Just as he knew that he would look forward to the next one they had together, but it wasn't like he and Cas could lock themselves away in his apartment forever (on that at least darling, we can agree). They had to go out into the real world where they weren't together. And hey, it wasn't as if this… whatever it you'd call what they were doing (relationship might be the word your looking for there Dean-o) would ever become something serious. That was not gonna happen. (Really, how sure are you about that? want to bet on it? I could do with some money.)

Therefore Castiel returned to his own apartment. As he got to the door he checked the time, wondering if his roommate would still be home, or if had gone out on the pull already. (Who knows with Balthazar? He does do the strangest of things.) Castiel wasn't sure which he would prefer most. I mean on the one hand he really didn't want to deal with Balthazar being all smug at getting him and Dean together (I'm thinking smug might be an understatement), but on the other he really wanted to rip into his best friend for the kissing thing. Because there was no way he would ever let him live that one down. (You have a naughty streak Castiel Novak, did you know that? I wonder where that comes from? Oh yes, your Gabriel's brother, forget I asked.)

He internal debate was solved by him unlocking the door and finding Balthazar there in front of him, leaning against the doorway to the livingroom with a seriously smug grin on his stupid face. (Now, now Castiel, let's not go calling him names shall we?)

"Stay away from Balthazar." Castiel said warily as he closed the door and removed his coat and shoes making sure he stayed out of arms reach of his friend. He did not want him deciding to try and kiss him again, not that he truly thought he would, but he really wouldn't put anything past Balthazar. (Don't worry Cassie, he only did that to get you and Dean-o together, you'll be fine, I promise.)

"Why Cassie? You saying you didn't like our first kiss? I'm heartbroken." Balthazar replied his grin getting even larger at being able to wind Castiel up. It was his favourite pass time after all. (And there I was thinking your favourite pass time was getting him together with Dean-o. Oh well, that's me told isn't it now.)

At his words Castiel narrowed his eyes and tilted his head as he stared at his friend, trying to make him uncomfortable, not that it worked. It never did. So with a shrug he responded to Balthazar's words with a sickly sweet smile on his face.

"It's more a case that if you get within arm's length of me I might be tempted to kill you."

"And yet, I'm guessing my plan worked considering you are coming back a whole twenty-four hours after you left." Balthazar counted with. He knew his friend didn't mean it, I mean come on, he threatened to kill him at least once every couple of days (and are you really surprised about that? I'm surprised it isn't more often myself). Of course be had never jumped the guy before, but it had all been in a good cause, and Castiel was the one who got rewards for all his hard work. Was a thank you really too much to ask for? (Umm, I'm going with yeah, it really is.)

"I don't care if it worked. You ambushed me." Castiel replied pointing his finger at his friend and glaring at him for all he was worth, even if he wasn't really that pissed anymore. He could still pretend. It was fun. (Go, go, Castiel.)

"Oh Castiel, trust me, I enjoyed it about as much as you did." Balthazar responded with an exaggerated shudder as he remembered the feel of his friend's lips under his. Yeah he was glad he didn't have to do that again. (Are you sure? Good! Cos he belongs to Dean so there.)

"Hmm, I'm pretty sure you enjoyed winding up Dean a lot more than I did." Castiel crossing his arms as he tried to keep up the affront in his voice.

"True, but then I'm sure you enjoyed the outcome much more than me, so I would say we're even." Balthazar replied with. He knew Castiel wasn't really that pissed with him, if he had been he wouldn't still be standing there talking to him. Hmm, it was a good thing his plan worked really, otherwise he would have had one very angry Cassie to deal with. And he preferred to not deal with that, like ever. (Very wise. Don't make Castiel angry, it will not end well, for anyone I feel.)

"I will remember this Balthazar, and one day, when you least expect it, I will return the favour." Castiel said with a nod deciding he had had enough of being cross with Balthazar. Instead he moved towards his room so he could change out of the clothes he had been wearing the night before when he left to meet Dean. (Probably a good plan.)

"Ooohhh, now that sounds interesting." Balthazar called after him making Castiel turn to him with a raised eyebrow. (Oh dear, why did you say that Balthazar?)

"Are you sure interesting is the word you want to use?" Castiel asked sweetly wondering how and when he could take the get pleasure of exacting his revenge on his friend. (Castiel behave, just think of Dean, without Balthazar you wouldn't be with him. Just think of Dean…)

"It's the only one I will say out loud." Balthazar conceded. He didn't want Cassie planning his revenge too much, he was after all Gabriel's younger brother, and he had learnt far too much from that man about such things. Or far too much if you happen to be the one on the receiving end of it at any rate. (Yep, my thoughts exactly. Never cross a Novak.)

At his words Castiel tilted his head at him wondering whether to make Balthazar squirm. But he really couldn't be bothered. He had just spent a whole night and day in Dean's arms because of him, he really should let him off. (That's right, you probably should. Not saying you will mind you, but you should.)

"Very well. What are you plans for tonight?" He asked instead, returning his journey to his room.

"Well I was going to take my best friend and roommate out to get him a man, but it seems I don't need to do that now, so Netflix and chill?" Balthazar responded following Castiel down the corridor and propping himself up on his doorframe as they could continue organising their evening. He was kind of glad to have a chance of spending some time with Castiel, he hadn't really seen the guy that much the last week after all. (Ah, did you miss your friend? How sweet.)

"Sounds like a plan, I'll order the pizza, then jump into the shower." Castiel replied grabbing his phone from his pocket.

"Yes please do. I would prefer not to share the couch with someone who smells of sex and Dean thank you very much." Balthazar responded moving quickly out of the way when he saw a pillow heading in his direction, it hit the wall harmlessly rather than hitting him. (No comment on that, just you must has some good reflexes.)

"Really? Because I can't think of any better smells. Well as long as it's Dean smelling of sex with me at any rate." Castiel said when Balthazar came back into sight with a smirk on his face for his friend. Well it was his fault for starting the topic of conversation in his mind. (Very true my dear, very true.)

"Ah sassy Cassie, how I have missed you. Make sure you order me extra olives." Balthazar replied with a roll of his eyes as he moved from Castiel's room heading to the livingroom so he could see what he could find for them to watch on Netflix.

"And do you want sausage on that as well?" Castiel called after him making Balthazar stop and sigh. He should have expected Castiel to start with the bloody sausage jokes. There was no way his friend was going to let this one go. (Nope, he really isn't, sorry for not being sorry?)

"Really? Sausage jokes? From you?"

"I am well aware I like sausage, I just never realised you did too." Castiel replied innocently before quickly closing his door with a smirk on his face so he managed to get the last word in. He really didn't want Balthazar to do or say anything else. (Really? you two are like a couple of kids, you know that right?) So instead he turned to his phone to order pizza for dinner, and he then made his way into the shower, where he spent a good amount of time with his eyes closed as the water ran down him, his mind far away remembering the amazing day he had had with Dean. (Ahh Cassie in the shower… thinking of Dean. Sorry forgot to finish that sentence then. I got a little distracted. And with that wonderful image I will leave you for now. Sweet dreams y'all.)
