In April, everything changed.
All of Sonny's boys were going to the carnival: Dean, Sam, Castiel, Jaime, Harry, Rob, Tre, Andy, Jon, TJ, and Luke. It was their favorite time of year; previously, the Winchesters had not attended the fair because it was too busy and loud; Dean believed it to be too dangerous. But this year, Sonny gave each of his boys three dollars to spend however they wanted, and told them to be back by ten.
Dean kneeled in front of Sam. BE SAFE, he signed.
I KNOW.
NOT KIDDING, SAMMY.
I KNOW! BE WITH SONNY ME. AND JAIME.
Sonny smiled. "Don't worry, Dean," he assured him. "I've got him. I won't let him out of my sight."
Dean's shoulders relaxed. I LOVE YOU, SAMMY.
I LOVE YOU, TOO.
So Dean interlaced his fingers with Castiel's and asked his boyfriend if they could ride the ferris wheel.
It was the most fun Dean had ever had in his entire life. He didn't think he'd ever eaten so much candy in his life. As it turned out, he was amazing at any accuracy games; he knocked over all of the bowling pins on the first try and gave his prize—a large pink teddy bear—to Cas. He leaned and pressed his mouth against Castiel's. He tasted like cotton candy. "Having fun?" Cas asked.
They were sitting on a bench at the edge of the carnival by the rides. Dean was sprawled out over the whole bench, his head in Cas' lap. "Is that even a question?" Dean kissed Cas' fingers. "This is the most fun thing I've ever done. You like the bear?"
They'd had a couple of issues with the roller coaster; the screaming had sent Dean reeling with fear, but Cas had calmed him. Now, they were away from the noise, away from everyone else. "I love it." Cas smiled, tickling Dean, and he laughed hysterically. "I think Bear over here has captured my heart, Dean. Tough luck for you."
Dean, still laughing, replied, WE BREAKING UP?
Cas nodded, giving him a mock apologetic face while signing SORRY. "I've found my one true love, Dean. Sorry. Nothing I can do." He gave the neon pink, stuffed bear a kiss. "Yep. That's true love right there."
Dean laughed harder. "I wish you and Teddy Bear the best of luck, then. When's the wedding?"
Cas pretended to think about it. "He's not a big fan of winter, so I think we're settling for the fall."
"Sounds good."
They laughed and talked and kissed more until Dean thought he could never be unhappy again.
"Sir?"
Sonny looked up. A woman in a blue shirt looked expectantly at him. "Yes?"
"I have a call for a Sonny Alvarez? That's you?"
He nodded.
She handed him the phone; at the sound of the voice on the other line, his stomach dropped.
Amina and Sonny had switched places a while ago. She, Sam, and Jaime were exiting the ferris wheel when she saw Sonny.
He was pale, almost ghostly; he stumbled forward as though ill and looked directly at her. His expression conveyed only devastation. "Stay here," Amina said quickly, and she rushed forward. "Sonny?" she asked, concerned. "Are you okay?"
He bit his lip. "Get the boys," he said. "We're leaving."
"No, Sonny. Tell me what's going on."
He ran his hands through his hair: a clear sign he was distressed. "It's the Winchesters' father," he croaked. "He's back."
Sonny found Cas and Dean on a bench at the edge of the carnival, kissing and laughing. He hated himself for ruining this for them, but he had no choice. He cleared his throat.
Dean immediately sat up, flushed. His cheeks were bright; he was much healthier than he had been when he had first arrived at Sonny's home. Cas sat up as well, straightening his large AC/DC T-shirt and weaving his hands through his hair. "Sonny!" he said, surprised. He frowned at the look on his face. "What is it?"
Sonny could barely get the words out. "It's your father," he told Dean. "He's coming today to take you home."
