Chapter 2: Surprise!
"Bobby, take that poster down! It is not funny anymore!" Mac yelled when Bobby put up a dirty poster again, despite Mac pleading with him not to. Dean just laughed.
"Why not, Mac? You know Caleb would love it," Bobby retorted.
"Take it down!" Mac shouted.
"Okay, I think we just need to put up that Happy Birthday sign up there and then we'll be done," Dean said, lifting the sign.
"Bobby, help Dean with that while I set out the food," Mac instructed.
"Alright," Bobby went over to where Dean was climbing onto a chair to hang the sign over a doorway. Bobby grabbed another chair and helped him.
Gradually, people began to show up. Eventually, everyone who would be making it was there, talking, and blasting music.
"Everybody shut up!" Dean shouted over the noise. Talking ceased and the music died. Dean called Sam. "Sammy? Okay, bring him over."
"I'm on my way," Sam replied. Sam hung up with his brother, and looked to Caleb, who was chatting up some girl. "Caleb, let's go."
"Hold on a second, Misty," Caleb turned to Sam. "Leave? I thought Deuce, Dad, and Bobby were meeting us here."
"Well," Sam thought for a minute and remembered Dean telling him to tell Caleb he felt like dancing, "Bobby decided to go dancing, so they're at a club."
"Bobby dances?" Caleb asked.
"Apparently," Sam shrugged.
Caleb laughed, "Alright. Sorry, Mindy, I have to go."
"Aw, okay, see you Caleb!" she replied, and watched sadly as he and Sam left.
Sam pulled up to the club, and climbed out. Caleb was still laughing about Bobby dancing.
"Come on," Sam said. He hurried up to the door, and entered.
Dean, who was waiting by the light switch, flipped on the light and everyone screamed, "Surprise! Happy birthday, Caleb!"
Caleb's jaw fell open, "No way…"
Dean grinned, and slapped him on the back playfully, "What? Did you actually think all we were going to do was make you breakfast and go to a bar?"
"I didn't really think about it," Caleb shrugged. Caleb was dragged away almost immediately and everyone was wishing him a happy birthday.
"See Sam? Told you it would be easy," Dean said.
"I'll bet it was a lot easier to be here decorating," Sam snapped.
"Don't be so sure. Mac and Bobby were fighting the whole time," Dean said. "It was a nightmare."
"Oh yeah, I'm sure that was horrible!" Sam snorted.
"Okay, fine, it was somewhat entertaining," Dean admitted. "Shut up! I'm going to go mingle!"
Sam laughed as he watched his brother walk away. A couple hours into the party Caleb was able to escape everyone to talk to Dean and Sam.
"Hey, um, why is it that I don't even know some of these people?" he asked.
"Don't look at me. Dean and Mac did the invitations," Sam said.
"Well, there weren't a lot of people at first, and so I bumped into her on the street," Dean pointed to an attractive blond walking by, "and thought hey, she's hot, why not invite her? So she brought some friends, which included her boyfriend and I was very disappointed." Caleb and Sam grinned. Dean went on explaining, "And then I almost ran over her dog," he pointed to a brunette who was dancing with Mac, "and I felt really bad so I invited her."
"What about that guy?" Caleb pointed out a guy that he'd never seen before.
"I don't honestly know. It's been concerning me though, I think I'll have Bobby haul him out," Dean shrugged. Caleb and Sam laughed.
"You're an idiot," Caleb rolled his eyes. "But thanks, this is great."
"Glad you like it," Dean smiled. "Mac said Let's have a party, and me with my brilliant ideas, said Let's make it a surprise!"
"Well, you sure did surprise me. This is great, guys," Caleb grinned.
"Good," Sam said.
"I'm surprised you invited Joshua," the three turned to the blond hunter who was watching Bobby as he danced horribly.
"Mac invited him," Dean replied.
Caleb laughed, "That doesn't surprise me."
"Pool?" Dean asked.
"Yeah," Caleb agreed. Sam, Dean, and Caleb strutted over to the pool table and began to play. Eventually Mac and Bobby came over by them. They all watched Dean and Caleb play as they joked around with each other.
After an intense game of pool (which Caleb won no matter what Dean says) they sat around drinking.
"Good alcohol choices," Caleb commented.
"Thank you, I picked it out," Dean smirked. Mac simply sighed. Dean grinned. As they group sat around drinking, Caleb decided that this had been his best birthday yet.
"Hey, birthday boy, will you come dance with us?" Caleb looked up at blond-headed triplets. He grinned; definitely the best birthday ever.
"I'd love to," Caleb said. He jumped up and hurried off to dance with them. Eventually Dean couldn't take it and joined Caleb and the triplets.
"Yeah! We got the birthday boy and the party planner!" one triplet shouted. Dean and Caleb grinned at each other.
In Caleb's opinion, the party didn't last long enough. But, around 4 the next morning the crowd really began to die down and Mac and Joshua started cleaning up.
"I say we make Josh finish this up and go home and sleep," Dean said.
Joshua glared at the younger hunter, "You know, I shouldn't be cleaning at all. According to Mac, I'm lucky I was even invited!"
Dean shrugged, "Josh, I just wasn't sure if you'd want to come! I mean, I'm never sure about you and Caleb? Are you guys even friends?"
Joshua sighed heavily and looked at Caleb. Finally he said, "Are we?"
"Sure, Josh," Caleb smirked. When Joshua began sighing again, Mac decided to intervene.
"Joshua, go home. Caleb, you go home too. It's your birthday…well the morning after, and I want to relax. Dean, Bobby, Sam, and I have this," Mac told his son.
"Cool," Caleb grinned. He left happily. The party planners didn't finish cleaning up until almost 6:30. Exhausted, they left and went back to Mac's where they found Caleb fast asleep on the couch.
Everyone claimed a bed, leaving Dean to sleep on the floor. He grabbed blankets from Caleb's room and collapsed in the family room in front of the couch. He was asleep for what felt like five seconds before someone woke him.
"Deuce," the familiar nickname had Dean up quickly.
"Damien?"
"Yeah," Dean looked up into Caleb's golden eyes. "That was an amazing party."
"I'm glad you thought so, but you've already told me this and I want to go back to sleep." He looked at a nearby clock and discovered it was only 8 AM. "Yeah, definitely want to sleep."
"Wait, um…you guys didn't have to do this for me."
"We know. We just wanted an excuse to party. Mac even got a few numbers," Dean smirked. Caleb grimaced. That wasn't fun to think about.
A heavy silence followed. Both hunters were thinking the same thing. Dean had made this birthday special because it was the last December 29th they'd ever spend together. That was scary to think about.
"What ever will you do next year without your brilliant party planner?" Dean asked, trying to lighten the mood.
"I don't know," Caleb replied, resting back on the couch. "I think I'm going to my own bed…"
"Well okay, if you want to sleep with Sam," Dean stopped him.
"Oh…never mind," Caleb shook his head. Dean laughed.
"Well, I guess next year will suck without me," Dean said, only half-joking.
"Yeah," Caleb whispered hoarsely. He put his face on his pillow before he could think about it anymore. "Night, Deuce."
"Night Damien," Dean answered, adjusting to get more comfortable. Next year really would suck.
