Cas's POV
I gently stroked my hand through Dean's hair watching over him while he slept, Dean seemed to be doing somewhat better especially with the idea of us getting to have our own child however I couldn't help but worry about him. I was watching Dean's eyes moving under his eyelids as he dreamt when I felt Gabriel's grace outside the door and after double checking on Dean I gently stood and went outside to see Gabe standing there waiting on me, "Took you long enough Cassie."
I rolled my eyes at Gabriel, "What is it brother?"
Gabriel smiled, "Just wanted to check on you, and thank you for calming me down earlier."
I smiled gently, "I simply told you things you needed to hear brother. So did you and Sam talk?"
Gabriel smirked and without him saying anything I could tell they did more than that but listened to him, "Yeah, we uh… we tried. Idk if it took yet but yea. Did you and Dean-o?"
I felt myself blush a little however I nodded gently, "Yes, um Dean and I tried. I don't know if I am pregnant yet"
Gabe smiled, and I could see how happy he was, "So our kids will be close in age."
I nodded, "Assuming we are pregnant."
Gabe smiled then nudged at me, "Alright well go back and watch your human sleeping creeper."
I rolled my eyes and ignored Gabriel as I went back into our room to see Dean was sitting up and looked panicked so I quickly went to Dean's side, "Dean it's okay I'm right here."
Dean wrapped his arms tightly around me and I could feel him shaking, I rubbed his back gently and hugged him gently, "Sorry Dean, I was talking to Gabriel, I'm sorry"
Dean held onto me for a few minutes before he finally let go and wiped his face, "S…sorry I had a n…nightmare and then when I woke up you were gone… I didn't get a chance to even say your name when you came in… s… so you don't have anything to be sorry for Cas"
I nodded a little and kissed him gently, "You should go back to sleep Dean, it has only been a couple hours, I will stay here."
Dean paused before he shook his head, "I need to take a hot shower, I'll get some more sleep after okay."
I nodded and kissed his head, "Okay Dean, I will be in the library, pray to me when you are finished and I will come and lay down with you"
Dean nodded and took his boxers off before going into the bathroom, I stood up and went to the Library, the bunker was extremely quiet as I grabbed a book to read while Dean showered. As I was reading I could feel something off, I stood up and went around the bunker checking on everything before I went back to my room with Dean, I could hear the shower was still running so I knocked on the door gently, "Dean is everything okay?"
Dean instantly replied, "Yeah Cas. Is something wrong?"
I opened the door and looked at Dean, "I don't know, something feels off"
Dean turned off the shower and grabbed the towel wrapping it around his waist and coming over to me, "Any idea why?"
I shook my head, "No I just… something feels off…"
"Did you say something to Gabe? Maybe he feels it too" Dean asked while he went back into our room and put his boxers on.
I shook my head, "No I checked on everything else before I came to check on you."
Dean nodded, "Okay well why don't we go to Sammy's room and talk to him okay?"
I hesitated but then nodded and I saw Dean grab one of his knives putting it in the small of his back before he smiled at me, we went to Sam's room and instead of knocking I reached my grace out to Gabriel's I felt it brush his and knew he was coming so I moved back and waited patiently for Gabriel. After a couple of minutes Gabriel came out, "Sorry had a moose attached to me, everything okay Cassie?"
I bit my lip, "I feel as though something is off, and I cannot pinpoint what the problem is."
Gabe looked between me and Dean, "No I don't feel anything, hang on." Gabe closed his eye and I felt his grace reaching out over the whole bunker, before I could see his grace return to his body. Gabriel looked at me with narrowed eyes, "Cassie, focus on your own grace for a minute."
I frowned what Gabriel was telling me confused me, before I closed my eyes and focused on my own grace before I realized there was something growing from within my grace. I gasped and instantly opened my eyes, Gabriel had a small smile on his face. Dean looked between Gabriel and I before clearing his throat, "Okay I'm a human here. I don't have angel radio what am I missing."
It took me second to say anything as Gabriel nudged me, "You have to tell him Cassie."
I nodded and looked at Dean, "It worked Dean…"
Dean's face twisted in confusion before a sudden look of realization hit him and his eyes widened, "Wait… what? Really? I mean it was just last night how do you?"
I looked to Gabriel who I knew could explain better than I could, "Well Dean-O, two reasons, Cassies grace is a great source for the Nephilim to grow, so it won't take but maybe 3 months before Cassie is ready to have your kid. Also, the fact that grace is extremely sensitive so we can notice any differences rather easily."
Dean suddenly wrapped his arms around me and laughed, "Shit Cas! Oh my God I can't believe this babe."
I smiled and hugged him back, I could feel a sadness radiating from Gabriel and I kissed Dean, telling him to go back to our room before I turned to Gabriel who was forcing a smile, "Brother…"
Gabe shook his head, "No don't worry about me little bro, go enjoy it with Dean-o. I'll let dad know for you okay?"
I nodded gently, "Okay brother I will talk to father its fine. It will happen you just have to give it time."
Gabriel smiled then went back into Sam's room, I used my grace to appear in Dean's room and he turned to me and practically tackled me, "Oh my god Cas"
I laughed gently and hugged him tightly, "Speaking of God I need to let Chuck know, because of misconceptions Heaven sees Nephilim as abominations and they may attempt to locate us. Father said once I feel it I need to let him know so he can ward the bunker more and keep me and our child safe until he can fix the misconceptions that happened in his absence."
Dean nodded gently, "Of course, do you just need to pray to him or go up there."
"If I were to go up there the power of heaven could make the Nephilim grow more and make it come more apparent to the other angels." I replied softly.
Dean nodded a little, and then I closed my eyes and prayed to Chuck, 'Father, I can feel a Nephilim within my grace.'
When I opened my eyes again Dean was hugging me again, I felt him lay his head on my chest and I wrapped my arms around his waist. I was about to slide my hand down the back of Dean's pants when I felt Chuck's energy, so I pulled away from Dean. Dean turned with me keeping his hand in mine, Chuck looked between Dean and I, "Congratulation's Castiel. I have put powerful protections around the bunker to keep you and the child safe. I will keep Heaven locked until after you have the child, Gabriel should be able to assist you in the birth if he cannot all you will need to do is to pray to me."
I nod softly, "Yes Father. Thank you"
Chuck stepped forward and shook my hand before bringing me close and hugging me gently, "You are welcome son. Call if you need me."
I smiled gently before nodding a little, "Thank you."
Chuck nodded before disappearing into a gentle glow, I relaxed a little feeling safer and warm. Dean hugged me again and kissed me softly, "Can we lay down?"
I nodded a bit, "Of course Dean."
Dean and I laid down in bed, I used my grace to make our clothing disappear and Dean wrapped his arms around my waist softly, one hand resting just above where the few tiny cells of our child was growing. It didn't take long before I felt Dean drift off to sleep and I closed my eyes letting myself imagine.
