SilverDragonflymoon: Thank you for the review.
vrskaandrea: Aisha was fun to write. Yay a Sam and Eileen team up. :D. It's the chapter you been waiting for.
Michael gasped in both shock and happiness. His nephew wanted to talk to him. He knew Jack always wanted to speak to him and now Jack is standing up to his family and demanding to see his uncle. Dean can feel Michael pressing against his skull. He can feel how eager the archangel is. Dean trusted Michael and he is sure Jack would be safe. However if he let Michael out Cas would tell Sam and Sam would yell at Dean for letting Michael talk to Jack without his permission.
"Jack." Dean spoke slowly and carefully. "We talked about this."
"That I have to wait. I waited long enough Dean. I want to speak to Michael."
"I agreed you can see Dean. Michael, we all need to be here to agree on that." Cas says.
"Sam is not going to agree." Jack huffed angrily.
"Kid has a point." Dean agreed. He rubs his head. "Michael wants to talk to him as well." He looks at the angel with pleading eyes. "We can't avoid this forever Cas."
Cas blows out a sigh. He didn't like being like this. He loved Michael. They might have not been close in the past but he did love him. He loved all his siblings.
Castiel is scared. Scared on how much the cage possibly changed his older brother. Scared on how much Michael is affecting Dean. He has seen the drift between the brothers. Sam has become more distant by the day. Cas couldn't blame him. Michael reminded the younger hunter of the cage. Seeing the drift has made Cas feel hopeless.
"Please." Jack begged. "If I don't like him then that's that." He then smiles. "I don't think that's gonna happen."
Michael smiled at his nephew's happy face. The kid is so adorable.
Cas looks at both Jack and Dean's puppy eyes. It's hard to resist Sam's. Jack and Dean combined that's...Cas shuts his eyes tight. He pinches the bridge of his nose and again sighs.
"Alright." He brings out a pair of cuffs. "Only if you wear these."
"What!" Jack asks. "Why the cuffs?"
"Safety precaution."
"Cas." Dean says. "Michael is not gonna hurt him."
"Its okay Dean." Michael assured him. "I'll wear them."
No you shouldn't have to...
His arms are already out and ready for the angel to put them on. Cas approaches the hunter with a guilty expression. He didn't want to do this. He didn't want to cuff his best friend but he had to he had to protect Jack.
"I'm sorry." Cas mutters unable to look the hunter in the eye.
"I understand. It's a shame things had to turn out this way." Michael replied even though the angel can't hear him.
Michael loved Castiel. He loved all his siblings including Lucifer. However Michael didn't always show that. He raised them like soldiers. He was a commander he expected the angels to obey and follow all orders no questions asked. Castiel was a loyal soldier and although he eventually rebelled Michael still loved him because Castiel made the right choice he chose the good side and helped the Winchesters save the world many times. As the older brother Michael was proud of him. They may have not been close in the past but Michael is going to try to be a good brother a better brother to Castiel.
Once the cuffs were in place Cas steps back. Dean examines the cuffs and frowns. If this made his friend feel better so be it. They are doing this for Jack after all.
The three of them walk into a small room. In the room is a table and two chairs facing opposite each other. Dean sits down on one side while Jack sits on the other. Cas stands by the door with his blade by his side.
"You ready?" Dean asks.
"I am." Jack smiled.
Deep down Jack was nervous. It is happening he is finally going to talk to Michael. He really hoped he didn't screw this up.
How about you? Dean asks.
"Nervous but...I'm...I'm ready." Michael answered.
Dean looks at Cas. The angel nods to him. Dean's eyes slide back on to the former nephilim.
His green eyes flash blue. Few seconds later his eyes return to normal but his face is different. His expression is tense, worried, anxious. Many emotions flicker across his face. Jack becomes more worried thinking it is his fault. Did the archangel not like the look of him? Jack did brush his hair and ensured he was clean before coming here.
His wide green eyes look the former nephilim over. Jack sunk in his seat suddenly feeling embarrassed. Then his eyes meet Jack's eyes. His face softens and a smile spreads across his face.
"Hello Jack. It's so good to finally meet you."
Jack stared at him. The warmth in Michael's eyes, that smile, his voice, Jack didn't sense hate or disgust like the first time they met, he sensed love.
Cas immediately becomes alert when Jack gets to his feet. He walks around the table. Michael's eyes follow the former nephilim. Nerves started to creep back in. What was Jack going to do? Did Michael screw up already? He greeted the former nephilim in a polite manner. What went wrong? Why was Jack getting closer to him? Oh God this isn't a fight is it? Michael didn't want to fight. He already fought his brother he didn't want to fight his nephew as well.
Jack stops inches away from the archangel.
"Hello Michael." Jack rubs his arm and becomes shy. "Can I...Can I ask you a question?"
"Oh um..." Michael was stunned for a few moments. "Uh yes of course."
"Can I...Can I hug you?"
Jack has hugged Dean many times but this is Michael and Jack didn't want to hug him in case he made the archangel feel uncomfortable. Jack really did not want to mess this up. The former nephilim became tense when Michael frowns at him. He runs his fingers through his short strands and shakes his head.
"Its okay if you don't want to." Jack quickly added "I understand." He laughs nervously. "We barely know each other. I should have not asked."
"Yes."
Jack stops and looks at the archangel with a surprised expression.
"Yes?"
Michael nods and smiles.
"You can hug me but..." He raises his cuffs. "I can't hug you back."
Jack looks at Cas. The angel made it clear the cuffs are not coming off.
Michael rose from his seat and smiles down at his nephew. Jack takes a step forward. He hesitates but Michael's smile comforts him.
Jack slowly wraps his arms around the archangel. He lays his head on Michael's chest. Despite the cuffs Michael gets his arms over his nephew and manages to hug him back. It was awkward but it was the best the archangel could do.
Considering Jack has hugged this body many times it felt different with Michael in control. He can feel the grace pulsing through the veins. Also Jack felt like is hugging a complete different body nothing reminded him of Dean. It felt nice. Jack felt the emotions from the archangel. He felt the love and warmth just in this hug. There was no words needed to say how much the archangel loved him. Michael considered Jack as family and that's all Jack wanted.
The hug felt strange at first to the archangel but when he saw Jack's reaction his nerves vanished and he found himself enjoying the hug. This wasn't like the times when Dean hugged the former nephilim no this is different because Michael is in control and he has his arms around his nephew.
There was no words needed to say how much Jack loved him. Jack considered Michael as family and that's all Michael wanted.
The archangel and the former nephilim have accepted each other.
Both of them couldn't wait to get to know each other.
They pulled away and returned to their seats.
"So."
Michael faces his nephew. He then smiles.
"What would you like to know?"
Rowena sat at the counter with a glass of scotch. She watches everyone dancing. They all looked like they are having fun. She however was the opposite. She was not having fun. She was hating every second of it. Gabriel went off as soon as they stepped into the night club. She couldn't believe he decided to hang out with Ketch, Ketch out of all people.
The witch had to admit it was amusing at first watching Gabriel introducing the Englishman to a group of ladies. Ketch took one look at them and politely excused himself from the group pretending he needed the bathroom. Ketch didn't want to hit on ladies who are out of their minds.
Then Gabriel realized the Englishman lied. The archangel went in the toilets and dragged Ketch out. Rowena nearly spilled her drink at the sight. It was hilarious.
Now Ketch is settled with a woman across the room. Her name was Gwen and apparently she is into classic novels. Wonderful that gave Ketch something to talk about.
Rowena didn't listen in to the whole conversation because it was boring and most likely she will fall asleep to it.
Gabriel, where the Hell was he? She couldn't find him anywhere. The witch hoped he didn't go off with another woman. She knew the archangel liked to have fun but he wouldn't leave her and cheat on her would he? If he really wanted to have sex with another woman he could have invited Rowena as well she would have been up for a threesome. She ain't afraid to go into new territory.
She gulps back her drink and sighs heavily.
What a bloody night this is turning out to be.
"They seem to be getting on well."
Rowena turns round by the voice. Gabriel is sat with a cocktail in his hand. He had a smirk on his face.
"I told you I would find 007 a perfect match."
"Where the bloody Hell have you been?" She snapped.
"Having fun." He sips his drink and shakes his head. "What are you suppose to be doing? You look suicidal sitting there."
"Having the time of my life." She said sarcastically.
"Right." He said with disbelief. The archangel moves closer. He leans towards her ear. "Say..." He lowers his voice. "Now that Ketch is taken care off shall we get out of here and you know..." He smirks and a flash of mischief goes across his face.
Rowena faces him with the same matching smirk.
"After you." She purred.
She takes his hand and he leads her out of the nightclub.
Meanwhile Ketch started to get bored. He likes books but not as much as this girl here. Gwen went on and on and on about it she wouldn't talk about anything else. He wanted to leave but he couldn't use the bathroom excuse again Gabriel would know and probably glue him down to the chair.
Ketch hid a yawn as Gwen rambled on but then the archangel started walking towards with them.
"Here we go." The Englishman muttered under his breath.
"Hey." Gabriel gives Gwen a wave. "Hi."
"Hi." She beamed.
Gabriel looks back at the Englishman. He didn't look like his usual cheery self which Ketch found rather strange because he looked happy when he was leaving with the witch.
"You seen Rowena?" He asks.
Ketch frowns.
"You just left with her."
Gabriel frowns.
"Left with her? If I left with her I wouldn't be asking you where she is."
"So you and her didn't leave just now."
"I haven't been with her the time I set foot into this place."
Ketch looks at Gwen.
"Excuse me I need to..."
"Its okay." Gwen nodded.
Thank God Ketch thought.
The Englishman stands up and walks with the archangel.
"If that wasn't you who left with Rowena, who was it?" Ketch asks.
They walk to the area where Rowena was sitting. Gabriel froze when he sees something that he wished he did not see.
A lollypop is on the counter.
Gabriel picks it up and turns it over. His face paled.
"What? What is it?" Ketch asks.
Gabriel looks at him with a worried expression.
"Ketch, we got a problem."
If there is questions you would like Jack to ask Michael please put it in the review or PM me.
