Dean heard someone open the door and he hoped it was Johnny. But no, it wasn't. It was Cas with their daughter; Mary.
"Hi"
"Hey" Dean said and he gave a soft kiss in angel's sweet lips.
Then Dean gave a kiss in the forehead of the blue eyed baby girl.
Castiel left Mary in her soft pink cot.
"Where's Johnny?"
"He's… not here" Dean said vaguely, feeling guilty.
Of course that feeling alerted the angel's senses.
"I know that. That's why I want to know where he is." Castiel responded calmly.
Dean didn't answer and Castiel started to became worried. He came closer to Dean who was looking down.
"Dean, what happened?"
Dean had no other choice but tell the truth.
"That's what I wanted to know… I had to go out, but I didn't know where the keys were, so I asked him. He said he wouldn't give it to me. So I insisted and then puff… he's gone. He zapped some place and I got no idea where."
Castiel stood quiet and thoughtful. "I had already questioned myself of when that would happen."
"You knew he could zap to whatever and whenever he wants?" Dean asked confused.
"No, I didn't. But was about time he could do that."
"So, you knew… and you just forget to mention that to me?" Dean said a bit angry.
Castiel looked right into Dean's greenish eyes with a apologize look.
"Dean… the important right now is to find him."
"Yeah. Right." Dean calmed himself down. "Any idea?"
"He can't have gone far. Probably for some place he likes to be…"
Dean thought for a moment. "I got nothing. You think he's okay? I mean… he doesn't have… anything…"
"No!" Castiel interrupted, knowing what Dean was about to ask. "He should be fine. Besides, if something had happened to him, I already knew."
Dean nodded. He was relieved to know his son was okay, although what Castiel told him wasn't very tranquilizer. Dean also realized Cas hadn't answered him to the question he had interrupted.
"No, Dean. There's nothing coming after Johnny. He's safe. We are safe." Castiel finally answered knowing Dean was thinking about it.
Dean was staring, lost in the deep blue eyes of his angel.
"What is it?"
"Nothing." Dean answered and came closer to the angel. "It's just… I love you"
Dean kissed Cas passionately putting all the love he had in that kiss that neither of them wanted to let go.
"I don't know what I would do without you"
Castiel smiled with the sweet words of his lover. Not that he needed to hear them; he knew how Dean felt all the time. But he still liked to hear them. It was a way of Castiel knows Dean trusted in him.
"I know what you would do. You'd go to a bar, you'd drunk all bottles you could and if you get luck you'd find a girl who would take you to a motel and nicely would take off your clothes."
"Yeah, probably" Dean answered him. "If I was still alive…"
The truth is that Dean owed his life to Castiel, more than once. Castiel had also died for him and Sam twice.
Castiel knew Dean would be alive. Even if he would go to hell, Dean would come back, one way or another. After all he and his brother had already died several times. It seemed like they had more lives than a cat.
That awkward moment of change of thoughts over a melancholic silence was interrupted by the sound of Dean's cell phone.
