"Pregnant? But, how can you possibly know…I mean, have you took a test?"

"Yes, before and it was positive and I was so scared and didn't know how to tell you"

"Why didn't you tell me straight away?" Dean cried astonished.

"I was scared! Dean, are you happy? Tell me you are happy about this" she insisted taking his hands and watching his expression. Dean faltered for a moment and nodded making her sigh in pure relief,

"Good! Now, you wanted to tell me something?"

Dean looked down and knew he couldn't do it, he couldn't just break up with her after she told him that. He shook his head and forced a smile.

"It doesn't matter anymore"

Lisa smirked and hugged him tight. "I'm going to bed, you coming?"

"Yeah, yeah I'll be up in a bit"

"Okay" she whispered kissing him gently. "I love you"

Dean smiled in response and watched her go upstairs to bed and covered his mouth in horror. This couldn't be happening he internally screamed and scrambled for his phone and punching in his number.

Castiel answered it confused.

"Dean?"

"I need to see you, now" he hissed down the phone.

"You sound panicked…what's happened?"

"Please, can I come see you?"

"Yes"

"Okay, ten minutes" he cried hanging up and creeping out of the door and heading straight over to his.

~0~

Castiel stared at his phone in confusion and sat down feeling very worried, what if he's changed his mind? He thought to himself and bit his thumb. He knew Dean still loved her in a way but the way he was before with him made it feel like he had really chosen him.

He waited frustrated and impatiently for his arrival and was relieved when a timid knock came and he threw open the door to a pale Dean, he looked like shit.

"Oh my god, what's happened?" Cas whispered pulling him staring up into his dull and panicked eyes.

"I went to tell her it's over and she had news of her own…Lisa is pregnant, Cas"

Cas could feel his face pale and his stomach drop to the floor in horror.

"Oh" he breathed and sat down heavily against the couch staring at him. "Why am I not surprised?"

"Excuse me?"

"Dean, this is so typical and so correct! This was always going to happen! Why is it that when you get something good, something amazing, karma is right around the corner ready to fuck it up?"

"Cas…"

"This is punishment" he whispered looking away from him.

Dean walked slowly over and stood in front of him concerned. "Punishment"

"For me, I fell for a happily taken man and I wanted you, I desired you and so I got you" he whispered staring into nothing. "This is karma for our actions, Dean"

"Don't be daft, Cas!" he muttered running a hand through his hair, Cas closing his eyes at his touch and his breath hitched.

"We are over before we could even begin"

"I can still end it…"

"No you can't, Dean" he muttered looking up at him with watery eyes. "You are going to be a father; I will not take that away from him or her"

"But what about us? We can't end Cas, I want you"

"I want you too…god knows I want you but she's pregnant! This is another life we are talking about! So me and you are over"

"No" he whispered brokenly.

"Yes, Dean"

Dean bit his lip hard and looked down at their hands now joined together.

"This sucks"

"Life isn't fair sometimes"

He nodded and moved closer to him tipping his head back and planting a kiss on him, he could feel Cas smile into it and kiss him back.

"I'm really, really, going to miss that" he murmured against his lips and moved to Dean's neck kissing along it gently.

"I don't want to lose you"

"We can't stay friends Dean…it doesn't work"

"So we stay away from each other? Can you really do that?"

Castiel laughed for a moment and shook his head. "No way, I can't go 24 hours without needing you but we'll have to for everyone's sake"

"Why do we need to sacrifice ourselves for the sake of everyone else's happiness?"

"I don't know" he whispered leaning against his chest with a heavy sigh. They stayed like that for a long moment, Dean running his hand up and down his back not knowing if he could actually give this up. It was like being told as a child you had to give up your favourite teddy bear or toy, you couldn't see it, touch it or hold it again and that pain, that fear and everything along with it resurfaced itself.

"You should get back to her" Cas croaked and looked up at him and Dean gasped a little at his teary eyes.

"Oh shit" he murmured bring his thumb up and brushing away a tear. "No way, I am not leaving you like this"

"She'll wonder what's happened to you"

"I'll tell her I went for a walk and fell asleep in the bloody park, come here" he muttered and wrapped him in his arms holding him close.

"I'm so sorry for this" Dean murmured in his ear feeling the wetness of his tears on his neck as Castiel buried his face in the crook whimpering slightly.

"It's not your fault…well it is, you getting her pregnant but it can't be helped now" he mumbled and leaned against his shoulder.

"If she wasn't I would be all yours right now and in my mind I am…I don't love her like that anymore, you've changed me for the better"

Castiel nodded and peered up at him with a weak smile.

"I did that 7 years ago when you pushed me over, helped me up and what do you know here we are years later"

"It's a good thing" Dean cried and leaned his cheek against his hair.

"I wouldn't change a thing"

Dean tilted his chin up and brushed a kiss against his lips, on his nose and on to his forehead sighing deeply.

"You can be so affectionate sometimes" Castiel murmured and blushing a little.

"I know" Dean smirked. "I am full of surprises!"

"I want you to stay with me"

"Okay" Dea muttered and looked at Castiel who blinked in surprise.

"No buts, Cas, come on" he muttered holding out his hand and tugging him to the bedroom. They simply lay together and in each other's arms, no words, just looks, kisses and caress's to show how they truly felt without speaking.

The next day, Dean returned home to see Lisa had gone to work and left a note.

Hey babe.

I need to talk to you about something important later! I really want to do this so please try and be optimistic.

I love you.

He crumbled it up and threw it in the bin wondering what it could possibly be as he made himself some toast and picked up his phone to see a message from Sam.

"Coming to see you later, be home!"

Dean smiled to himself and text him back telling him he would be here and couldn't wait to see him and maybe talk to him about this whole big problem.

Sam arrived two hours later to his delight.

"What's with the long face?" Sam asked sitting down and taking the can of soda off him with a nod.

"Lisa is pregnant"

"No way!" he cried shocked and smiled at him. "Congrats"

"Yeah…" he muttered sighing.

"What is it?"

"Sam, if I tell you something…try and not judge me"

"I would never judge you, what's happened" he muttered concerned.

"Me and Cas…well we've been…sleeping together and I kinda fell in love with him"

Sam blinked in surprise and pressed his lips together for a long moment before laughing lightly and shaking his head amused.

"Dean, I am not surprised"

"What?"

"Castiel has always fancied you Dean, always and you have always had such a deep connection…I am really not surprised"

"You are seriously calm about this, I totally expected you to freak out!"

Sam shook his head and then grimaced.

"Let me guess, Lisa being pregnant has destroyed everything"

"You got it in one" Dean whispered sitting down opposite him.

"What are you going to do?"

"Nothing, I can't now can I? she is pregnant and that is that, me and Cas are over"

Sam could see the hidden despair and sorrow in his eyes at those words and looked down at his lap.

"I'm sorry, Dean"

"Yeah…so am I"

~0~

Lisa came home that night and bounded in sitting him down.

"I want you to listen to me and please consider this"

"Hit me with it" Dean said muting the TV and looking at her.

"I want to move to Michigan to live with my brother, I want us to move away from here and raise our child together"

"What…why?"

"Because I hate it here! I despise the house, the neighbourhood and I miss my brother…Dean, please?" she whispered crouching down in front of him.

"But what about our jobs, our friends?" he whispered and she shrugged.

"We quit, sell up, get our savings and text and call them now and again, if you love me and this child you will do it"

Dean couldn't see the blackmail as he despaired over this and she stroked his hands staring at him with hard eyes.

"Um, okay" he muttered to her delight as she squealed loudly and threw her arms around him.

"Thank you!" she screamed and he hugged her back in complete horror.

What had he done?

Lisa smiled over his shoulder and had him right where she wanted him, fake pregnancy and she was getting him away from Castiel, all she needed was marriage and her plan was complete. No was taking Dean away from her, Dean was hers.
