Hours later, in the evening, when they were all sitting in the living room of the bunker, Jess asked about wedding plans.

"Tell me you have a few, a vague idea at least," she said.

Both Cas and Dean shook their heads. "We got engaged yesterday," Dean replied. "Haven't exactly had a lot of time."

"Do you have a season at least?" Sam asked.

"I've always liked spring," Cas said, glancing at Dean.

"Spring sounds nice," Dean replied, smiling at Cas. "What about you guys?"

Jess shrugged. "I think we've decided on spring", she said with a look in Sam's direction.

"Spring or winter, I think," Sam replied, squeezing her hand. "I like spring better."

"Okay," Jess said with another shrug. "I'm indifferent."

No one said anything for a long moment, awkward glances, not knowing how to start a conversation. Then Sam glanced questioningly at Dean. "You never made a wish, did you? When Chuck told us we could have one, you never used yours."

"Nope," Dean said softly.

"Why?"

"I'm saving it."

"For what?" Sam asked.

"It's a secret, Sam."

"Tell me," Sam whined like a child.

Dean rolled his eyes, sending a exasperated glance at Jess who smiled back. "Not yet."

"Jerk."

"Bitch," Dean replied, feeling his lips curve up to mirror his brother's smile.

Gabriel sighed, fiddling with the edge of his shirt. He glanced up at Lucifer who was string off into the distance, zoned out. Neither of them had spoken for hours.

"We should visit Cas," Gabe said softly, words shattering the silence.

Lucifer looked over at him. "Yeah, we probably should."

"Wonder what's happening? I mean, Dad told us Sam got his girlfriend back."

"We should check it out." Glancing at Gabriel, Lucifer felt an uncharacteristic rush of affection for his younger brother and could hardly repress a smile. He had missed the days when everything had been good, before the hairless apes. "Let's go."

"Okay." Gabe stood up, stretching his back and arms.

Lucifer felt the familiar rush of adrenaline as he felt his great wings, healed by Chuck, spread and within moments he and Gabe were in the bunker. "Cas?" Lucifer called. "Cassie?"

Cas's footsteps could be heard moments before he entered the room. He looked at ease, eyes wide and bright, gait relaxed. He was wearing a pair of sweat pants and a large shirt Lucifer suspected to be Dean's. "Lucifer, Gabe!" he exclaimed.

"Hey Cassie," Gabe said with a grin, his eyes were shocked at the change in Castiel. "Missed you so we thought we'd drop in. How's Dean?"

"He's fine," Cas said, eyes dropping as he suppressed a smile. "Dean!"

Dean entered the room. He looked happier than ever, calm, no longer carrying himself like a soldier in formation. "Yeah?" he asked.

Lucifer's eyes shifted to his hand, they widened and he nudged Gabe who had apparently seen the ring too. "You gave it to him," Lucifer said affectionately to Cas. "Nice."

"You didn't think I would?" Cas asked, tilting his head.

"I didn't know when you would."

"Congrats you two," Gabe said with a smile. "When?"

"He gave it me yesterday evening," Dean answered, coming up beside his Angel. "I think we're planning for spring."

"Are you and Sam going to have a joint-wedding?" Gabe asked.

Dean shrugged. "If he and Jess are up for it. How'd you know about them?"

"Oh, Dad told us," Lucifer said. "Yup, He's back in the control room upstairs. No one even tried to stop Him."

"No surprising," Cas said with a sigh. "He's been gone millennia but those little sheep are still flocking to him."

"Yeah."

Just before silence fell, Sam's voice was heard. "Hey Dean, who is it?"

Dean turned around, shouting a reply. "Gabe and Lucifer, come say hi!"

Quiet. And then two figures appeared in the doorway. "Hey," Sam said. "Why are you here?" His tone wasn't hostile, nor was it unwanting. It was simply a friendly question.

"Checking in on Cas," Lucifer said, his eyes traveling over Jess then Sam then back to Jess. "You must be Jessica."

"I am," she answered boldly. "You are?"

"Lucifer." He sighed as her eyes widened in alarm. "I won't hurt you."

"Sam?" she asked, eyes not leaving the Archangel.

"He won't," Sam told her gently. "He's not dangerous. Neither is Gabriel."

Jess nodded, eyes sharp and assessing each Angel in turn. "Okay. Fine. Nice to meet you two."

"It's nice to meet you, Jessica," Gabriel said. "Dad brought you back."

"He did," she answered, any trace of fear gone or very well hidden. "So Lucifer, everything Sam and Dean said was true, you switched with Michael?"

"Yes," Lucifer said, casting his eyes downward. "But he's dead."

"Oh, I...I'm sorry."

"Don't be," Gabe said gently. "You and Sam planned anything yet?" He gave a purposeful glance towards her ring.

Sam glared at Gabriel momentarily, then grinned. "We think we've settled on spring."

"Double wedding?" Lucifer asked again.

Sam glanced over at Dean. "I'm fine with it," he said.

"So am I," Jess said.

Cas shrugged. "I don't mind."

"Sure," Dean said, privately relieved. He had wanted this, it made his wish so much easier and so much more do-able. He gave Cas a quick smile before turning back the the Angels. "What have you been up to?"

Asmodei glanced around at the beautiful garden he resided in. It was the closest thing to paradise he could get; slow, easy, natural. Rows of brightly colored flowers lined the fountain, a stone walkway lead up to it. The water was unnaturally silvery and bright. He sighed and sat back in the ornate bench.

"Asmodei?"

He turned around, eyes tracking the area to find the voice, settling on Chuck as He emerged from a small area of trees. "Son," He said softly. "How is Heaven suiting you?"

"It is beautiful, Father," Asmodei said, lowering his gaze.

Chuck watched him for a moment. "You are not happy."

Asmodei didn't say anything when Chuck sat down next to him, gazing around. "You know," He said. "You did the right thing, letting Castiel go back."

"Cas," the Angel corrected instinctively. "I know it was the right thing...I just..."

"You miss her." It wasn't a question.

"Yes."

"I am sorry."

Asmodei blinked back his emotions, the pain, the love. "Is there," his breath caught, "is there no way that I could see her?"

Chuck smiled. Suddenly they were standing in an ornate Ancient Greek style temple, soft music playing. Asmodei's heart stopped. A girl, a woman, stepped out into the light. It had been many years, centuries in fact, but she was still recognizable. Still beautiful. Her blue-green eyes landed on him, for a second it seemed like she didn't recognize him.

"Esmerelda?" Asmodei whispered.

Her eyes widened. "You..." Then she ran towards him, stopping inches in front of his chest. "It's you?"

"It's me," Asmodei whispered, eyes filled with love. "It's me."

Chuck smiled, turning away from his son. Asmodei did get his happy ending after all.

Dean sighed. He was sitting in the hood of the Impala with Sam while Jess and Cas prepared food. It had been awhile since he and Sam could spend time together like this, and frankly, Dean had missed it.

"You're happy right?" Sam asked softly.

Dean glanced up, caught off guard by the question. Sam was watching him, concern lighting his eyes. "Of course," he answered. "Why?"

Sam have a breathy laugh and glanced up at the darkening sky. "Man, you're not like this, you know it. Don't you miss hunting?"

Yes, I do. But just a little. It's become a part of my life and leaving it is like leaving part of myself behind. "No," Dean said softly. "It's nice, settling down."

"Really?" Skepticism, Sam didn't believe him.

"Listen, Sammy." Dean shifted so he was facing Sam. "I've hunted since I was a child, I knew things were out there since I was six. We've both had a crap life but we're leaving that behind. Hell, we're getting married. So listen when I tell you this, the hunting life, we've escaped it. We might be the only people the have ever escaped it, I know there are still things out there and I want to hunt them but if you and Cas want me to stay, I'll stay until I die. Because I care about the people who love me."

"Thank you," was Sam's soft, hardly there response. "Thank you."

I care about the people who love me. It was a loose term and Sam thought it came across more as I care about the people I love though both ways held true to Dean's agenda, his being was forever centred around the people he loved, he cared about. His entire life revolved around it. Sam smiled and glanced up at the stars appearing in the indigo sky. Behind them, he heard Cas step out. He saw Dean slip off the car and walk over to Cas, greeting him with a soft kiss. Heard the mumbled whispers of "I love you."

In that moment Sam was sure, one hundred percent sure, his brother and his Angel would be okay. Because that's what love was, sticking together through everything, no matter the consequences.

AN: How'd you like? Thank you for all the reviews I've been getting, it means a lot! I kinda felt like Asmodei needed a happier ending (and I was running out of ideas for this chapter). Next chapter will probably be either a build up to the wedding or the actual wedding! Thanks for reading!
