Michael glared when he heard Sam's voice. They just came to an agreement that the archangel can stay. Sam disrespected his wishes and still came round. The archangel couldn't contain his anger so he scrambles off the bed and storms out of the room.

He suddenly trips on his dressing gown and falls flat on his face. At the same time the door opens. Sam steps in and frowns at the small child on the ground.

"Michael?"

Michael looks up. His face blushes pink with embarrassment.

"Whoops." Rowena goes to help the archangel up. Michael stands up and runs off. Rowena blows out a sigh and folds her arms. "What do you want Samuel?"

"I'm here for my brother."

"We just agreed on the phone."

"Yeah well did you really think I was gonna sit back and leave you in charge of Michael."

"You don't trust me."

"No its just...Rowena its Michael. He is a monster. He is dangerous. You said yourself the curse can just wear off then he will be back to full power. If that happened then what the Hell are you gonna do?"

In the other room Michael pressed against the door to listen in on the conversation. His face screws up at the monster part. When he felt the tear slide down his cheek he screams and punches the wall. Why is he letting the younger Winchester get to him. Michael has been called a monster so many times he usually just laughs it off. Why is he getting so emotional about it now?

"Michael?"

Michael looks up. Cas looks down at the archangel with a baffled expression.

"Are you crying?"

Michael quickly wipes his eyes with his over sized sleeve and shakes his head.

"Me cry? Castiel don't be ridiculous."

Michael scoffs and waves the angel away.

"By looking at your red eyes and the snot coming out of your nose it appears to be that you were in fact crying." Cas sits down so he wasn't towering over his alternative brother. "Why were you crying? Is it because you fell over?"

"No."

"Is Dean okay?"

"Yes he is."

"Yet I am not sure."

"Look at me brother. Do I look like I am lying."

Cas places his hand on Michael's head. He looks in at the destroyed bar and travels through the tunnels until he saw the Winchesters childhood home. He looks in and travels up the stairs and into the bedroom. He sees Dean fast asleep hugging his teddy. It is the most peaceful Cas has ever seen him.

The angel let go and reached out to catch his alternative brother who nearly fell on the ground.

"See." Michael says. "He's fine."

"You're in control." He said darkly.

"It kept us both alive. If he saw the blood and everything it would have traumatized him."

"Since when you do care." Michael couldn't give an answer to that so Cas moved on to his next question. "Can you give Dean back control?"

"I told Sam that is not wise. We both know how bad Sam was seeing his brother back but it wasn't his big brother. Mary, she will take Dean away again."

"She may not. We all got to talk about it."

"Sam is angry at her. You think you all are going to make up just like that? The Winchesters are stubborn brother. It's best to not intervene. When you do you get hurt."

Michael gives his alternative brother a look. Cas knew there is more to what Michael meant. There are times when Cas was hurt by the brothers. Cas was left struggling to deal with being a human on his own because Dean didn't want him finding out about Gadreel and Cas nearly lost his life in Dean's hands when Dean was under the influence off the Mark of Cain. Cas even became insane so Sam can stop getting the hallucinations of Lucifer.

"We may not be close brother but you know that I am right." Michael sighs. "I am right about this as well. I need to be away from Sam, you and Jack. The boy can barely look at me in the eye."

"Can you not blame him."

"I offered Jack a place in my army. Then once I was in my true vessel I changed my mind. I told him it was a moment of familial weakness."

"Is that true?"

"Honesty... I don't know."

"Why do you like Rowena so much?"

"That is a question even I am trying to still figure out." The archangel admitted.

"You think it's the spell?"

"Again I don't know. Maybe because she hasn't left me." He smiles. "Her and Patrick are the ones who see me differently. Not as a monster. They understand me."

"Destroying the world and killing innocent lives. That is a monster."

"I have my reasons. What I said that day about God was true Castiel. He doesn't care. I realized that after I killed Lucifer. I stopped playing his little game and went on my own path." He laughs sadly. "I may have ruined my image God created for me and became more hated than Lucifer but at least I cut the strings and stopped being his little puppet. I don't like you guys but I would suggest you do the same thing."

Cas pulls Michael forward.

"You're wrong about him." The angel growled.

Michael narrows his eyes at him.

"Sam and Dean are God's favorite creations. If he cared so much why is he not here? Little Dean is in danger. God is not here. You know why because he doesn't care. God is a writer and seeing Dean suffering is a treat for him. With Dean asleep God has lost his character to play with. I am keeping Dean off the books. One to annoy God and two don't you think Dean has been through enough?" Cas had to agree the older hunter has been through a lot over the years. He needed a break. "If you want to prove me wrong, go and find him and ask him to help Dean."

"So you can have God to yourself."

Michael shakes his head.

"Give him what he wants?" He smiles. "I may have changed my plans." His smile widens as the conversation with Patrick plays in his mind.

"What does that mean?"

"I will assure you brother I will be on my best behavior."

Cas frowns as Michael did the most cutest smile. Since when did the archangel become this cute. Cas looks through his alternative brother's vessel to his true form. He can still see the familiar blue glow but something is different. Last time it was more of a dark blue. It gave off a cold, hostile presence. However this time Michael's aura is more bright and warm. The areas of hurt and betrayal are slowly healing.

Cas stands back up and decides to not comment on what he saw.

"Castiel."

Jack stops by the door. He looks at the archangel. Memories of attacking him and finding him pouring of blood in the cabin flash through his mind. The former nephilim frowns when he remembers his conversation with Patrick. Seeing both sides to the situation.

"Michael. How's Dean?" Jack asks.

"Good." Michael answered.

Jack cocked his head.

"How are you?"

Michael looked taken back by the question.

"Are you joking?" The archangel frowned.

"No." Jack answered.

"I'm..." A smile forms on his face. "...good."

That was an honest answer. It did feel good to have an conversation without butting heads.

"Why are you wearing a dressing gown that's too big for you?" Jack asks.

"Its Rowena's."

"I suppose you got a weapon under there. You are waiting to use it on us."

Michael's smile drops when he sees the former nephilim is being serious.

"No." He replied.

Jack was surprised when he saw how upset the archangel was.

"Honey I'm home!"

Michael's face lit up.

"Patrick."

Patrick puts the bags down.

"I got anything you asked for." He smiled at Rowena. His smile turns into a grin. "Michael." He gives the kid a pair of clothes. "For you."

Sam stared in shock as Patrick handed the clothes to the archangel. Patrick tickles under Michael's chin causing the archangel to laugh. Cas and Jack both looked bewildered by the interaction.

"Can I go and put them on?" Michael asks.

"Of course wee one."

Michael goes into the bedroom and pushes the door shut.

"What did you do?" Sam asks.

"What do you mean?" Patrick asks.

"That...what was that about?"

"I am doing what you should have done from the beginning. Giving Michael a childhood. It's good for him Sam. He's happy with us." He looks at Cas. "You know I am right angel." He said reading Cas's thoughts.

Cas nods.

"Its healing him."

"You said this is a healing process." Jack says.

"I did." Patrick nodded. "I can assure you Sam Michael is better off with us. When the curse wears off he will not attack us I know he won't. Give us a chance." Sam still looked uncertain. "You trust Rowena. Yes. Well I say we should both meet up for a drink and get to know each other. I want to prove to you I am a good guy."

"A drink?"

"Tomorrow? Day after I don't mind I am free."

"Tomorrow night."

"Done."

"We promise to keep you updated." Rowena says.

Sam sighs.

"Fine. If anything happens..."

"We're dead got it."

Before anyone could answer Michael is back in Patrick's arms smiling bright at him. It was freaking Sam out a bit. Patrick wasn't surprised he can see the curse has taken over. Michael's memories will be in tact but his behavior will change. Patrick is liking this more loveable side of the archangel. It helps the healing process.

"I guess we should be going." Sam says.

Michael watched as Sam, Cas and Jack left the room. He wanted to mention about what he did to Dean regarding the drowning but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

He needed time.
