I've finally run out of words for meaningless author notes...


By the time I made it back to school I was out of breath, I took the long way and ran all the way back. I was in the boys bathroom, splashing water on my face.

I screwed up again, I abandoned Sam back there. The thing was his eyes, they were really sorry and he really wanted this this to work. That's what made me angry, if he wanted things to work out now then why couldn't it have years ago. The urge to skip school and head strait to the bleachers was overwhelming so I just kept splashing water on my face.

"Dean?", Cas said confused as he stepped into the bathroom. "I thought you were with.. you know who," he asked.

I turned off the water and leaned heavily on the bathroom sink.

"Do you remember your parents," I asked quietly.

"Not really, Its all fuzzy and what I do remember are just sounds," He replied. "Why?"

"Maybe your lucky. You don't miss them if you don't remember and you can start over without feeling anything," I explained. "If they showed up today what would you do," I asked.

"I'd ask where they were, why they didn't want me," he said slowly.

"My dad was living his life somewhere while me and Sam were in the system getting beat up, My dad didn't want me because I asked to many questions, at first I thought it was just because I talked. So I stopped talking so I could make him come back, so he'd want me again. Then my foster mom busted my tooth out, so I started talking again, and he never came," I said quietly.

"Dean-," He started.

"I miss him Cas. I'm angry that I miss him because I'm supposed to hate him. For awhile before all this started I though maybe this was it, John could be my new dad. He was everything I thought one should be like. Mary, she was perfect. Now that he's back though I'm scared to call John dad and I'm scared to call Mary mom," I admitted. I wanted them to be my parents.

"Don't you get it... there adopting us, they are our parents," He insisted. "We can call them whatever we want and nobody has a say."

"It would feel weird, to call John dad and then Micheal just down the street," I mumbled. I needed to calm down.

"Sam doesn't seem to mind," He pointed out.

"Sam didn't know mom or dad, he calls Mary mom because she is the closest he's ever gonna get to ours. I bet soon he'll even call John dad," I smiled a little at that. Sam had real parents, but I still had one left over.

"You need to tell John and Mary about this," Cas suggested.

I wiped my sleeve down my face, getting rip of the exes water. Doing that made me remember the welts there, John said when ever I wanted to do that to come to him and he'd figure out a way to help me. John did that, he helped me.

"How," I scoffed.

"I'll come with you if you want," He offered. Maybe that wasn't such a bad idea.

"John is going to be my dad, so I wanna call him that," I started. "But Micheal is also my dad.. what do I call him," I asked.

"Why can they both be?"

Why couldn't they? I wanted to love Micheal again, I really did. But I love John already.

"Yeah, I guess they can," I murmured. I turned to my brother, he looked a lot different now then he did when we got here. He combed his hair now, wore blue jeans and T-shirts. He still wore the trench coat a lot, but now he just seems more grounded I guess. Because of John and Mary.

"Come on, One day is not gonna hurt," He grinned.

"What do you mean," I wondered.

"I mean today's to stressful for school, lets head down to the park and meet up with our parents and annoying little brother and straiten all this out," He suggested.

It wasn't uncommon for me and Cas to skip school together, we used to do it all the time. I just figured now that he had Meg and even some other kids who started talking to him he'd wanna stay.

"You sure," I grinned.

"Yep, Come on."

And then we walked out of the boys bathroom and down the school hall, ignoring the questions from the teachers as they watched us get closer and closer to the exit. Soon we where headed to the park, because we had some things to clear up.
