"I'm sorry, who are you again?" I ask.

"His name is Castiel, he's an angel. Of the Lord." Sam said.

"I'm no angel Sam, i've rebelled for Dean too many times. Heaven is looking for me." Cas said as he looked from Sam to me, then dropping his eyes to the ground.

"Okay, let me get this straight. You're an angel and you rebelled for, me? Why?"

"Like I said, we have a more profound bon-"

"Yeah yeah yeah, enough with the closeness crap! I'm asking you why."

"I….." he looks away for a few seconds and then back to me. "I don't know why." he said in almost a whisper

"I thought angels were douchebags with wings, I don't get it?" he wasn't looking at me, but instead was more zoned out looking out the hospital window. "Anyways, can you get me out of here Sammy?" I said after a sigh

"I'll see what I can do."

After Sam had to insist the hospital to let me go he wheeled me out of there in a wheelchair. "Ah, there she is! Did you miss me Baby?" I said talking to my car. "Thanks for taking care of her Sammy."

"No problem."

We all got into Baby, Sam had shotgun and Cas in the back. It felt right somehow. Like this was how it's supposed to be all the time, the three of us against the world. All in the Impala together. I still couldn't put my finger on the angel guy, who was he?

"Dean, you alright?" Sam asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"You just zoned out a bit."

"Oh, I just thinking. So, where do we go now?" I asked.

"Uhh, I guess we could find a place to crash for the night." he said.

"Can we go to a club after that?" What? I just got out of the hospital? Don't judge me.

"Sure Dean, we can go to a club. But you have to promise to take it easy okay." Sam insisted.

"Easy is my middle name!" And gave him a wink. "See what I did there? Easy?Yeeaah?" He just gave a huff "Whatever Dean."

"Oh come on, it was funny!" I looked back towards the road. "Bitch."

"Jerk." He said staring straight ahead and gave me a playful shove with his elbow right in my arm. I gave a little chuckle.

I feel like it's been so long since we've really been brothers again. It's felt like hunting buddies more than it has brothers. I enjoyed this moment and savored it until we arrived at the new motel we were staying in. We booked a room with two beds. I nearly forgot about Cas.

"Hey buddy, umm do you want me to book you another room?" I asked.

"I'm fine, I don't sleep anyways." he said walking to the bed and sitting down.

"Oh, right. You're an angel." I went to my bag and pulled out a toothbrush and headed to the bathroom.

"Hey Dean, are you still going to the club?" Sam asked.

"Yeah, why?" I said with my mouth full of toothpaste, and then spit.

"I think i'm going to stay here and look up some research. But you can go on without me." he said.

"Yeah, fine. Hey you wanna tag along Cas?"I yelled from the bathroom.

"I, don't know if I should." he said nervously. I walked out of the bathroom and he stood up from sitting on the bed.

"Oh it's fine, come on." I said and pulled him by the the sleeve, leading him out the door by his shoulder to the car.

We drove over to a club not far down the street and sat down at the bar. I ordered a shot for the guy to see what he thought. "Is this, okay?"

"It's fine, just try it." He sipped it and gave a sour look like he just ate a lemon or something. "Ugh!" he said. "What is that?!"

"It's a shot of liquor, this is a bar you know." I said. He sipped the rest and continued on making the same face and his disgusted reaction to it. But surprisingly he had me order another one. He was drunk within minutes. "These liquors are making me feel a kind of sensation." he said, I couldn't help but laugh as I took another sip from my beer. And it almost went up my nose.

"I think that's all for you okay buddy?" I said not wanting him to get wasted.

"Hey Dean, can I tell you something?" he asked.

"Sure, what is it?"

"I think you are a great human, and you should never change. I always did think highly of you but seeing how you forgot me you probably don't care." he said all this swooning slightly back and forth, that I had to hold him still at times so he wouldn't fall off his chair.

"Thank you, it was a very nice thing to say. But I don't think you should think too much of me. I'm nothing special."

"If you weren't special do you think I would have raised you from hell? You're Dean fuckin Winchester remember?... Oh, apologies for my profanity. I meant, you're Dean Winchester…. You save lives, kill bad things, your family business."

I didn't say anything but I gave him a side smile. After a minute I said "So,do you want to head back? I think i'm tired of this place." And so we did, Sam was already asleep so we had to be quiet coming in. I went into the bathroom to take a shower and let the warm water wash over my scars from all the previous hunts. And then washed up. I got out and dried off, then wrapping the towel around my waist. I opened the mirror door to get my toothbrush I previously left in there and brushed my teeth again getting the stench of liquor off my breath. I went to put it back and close the door and right as I did Cas appeared in the reflection. My heart raced as I jumped slightly and my skin sent shivers down my spine.

"Cas!" I tried to whisper. "Don't ever do that again, you nearly put me back in the hospital."

"I'm sorry Dean, I won't do it again."

I turned around and faced him even though he was right in my face. The bathroom here isn't very big. "Cas…"

"Yes Dean?" he asked.

"Uhh personal space please?" it was very awkward and I couldn't help but look at his lips but I stopped myself.

"I wanted to talk about earlier, and what I said."

"Yeah? What about it?" I asked.

"What I said back at the bar, it wasn't just a friendly gesture…." he trailed off. "Before, when you remembered me. We had a profound bond like I said earlier. But it was more than a close friendship. We…." he trailed off again. "We had more than that…"

"What are you trying to say?" This time I was really curious.

"Let me see if this will help you remember." he waited a second seeing how he could approach me without freaking me out. And before I knew it he was cautiously touching my face and kissing me lightly. I closed my eyes and suddenly I could see memories flashing in my head of him and me together, in the impala, hunting and so on. I leaned more into it and we fit perfectly together and he kissed me harder. We stayed like that going back and forth kissing eachother. Then I pulled back and looked him straight in his blue blue eyes

"Cas?" I said and he gave me a smile.

"You remember." and I smiled back
