Next Day
That morning I woke and saw the ruffled black hair laying next to me. I watched him breath for a bit before he woke up. "Mornin' Cas,"
"Dean," His voice sounded a little shocked mixed with tiredness. "Black," I realized he is meaning my eyes were black and I switched them back to green. "Much better," He added and kissed my on the forehead.
"Sorry about that, I guess I can't control it," I gave him a smile and rested my head on his chest. Before we went to be bed he took off his clothes down to underwear because I told him it would be more comfortable. "I though you said you didn't sleep?"
"I guess, my grace is wearing off faster than I thought. It doesn't matter." He played with my hair and I heard him sigh.
"Yes it does. I remember Metatron saying that when your grace burns out so do you, Cas I don't want that to happen!" I sat up and looked at him in the eyes. His blue blue eyes, with no chance of turning black. He didn't answer at first.
"When I kill Metatron I am going to take back my grace. He has it in his office. Once I get it back I can put it back in me and I will be fine. I thought this out Dean, don't worry about me," He pushed my head back on his chest and we lied there for a while. I felt his breathing calm down, so I closed my eyes and calmed mine.
"Hello Boys, Comfortable are we?" I shot up and Cas did the same. "Did I interrupt something here?" He pointed at the two of use.
"What the hell Crowley!?" I yelled covering my bare chest . Cas gave him one of his scowls and covered his chest up too.
"Oh need to cover up for me dear," He walked closer and sat on the foot of the bed. "A bit weird isn't it? An angel and a demon. Sounds a bad joke," He smirked at us.
"Get the hell out of here Crowley!" I demanded. "Go bother Sam, I bet he wants to see you," I waved my hand at him, but he didn't acknowledge anything I said.
"So, Castiel. What is it like? Having your long time crush be a murderess demon? Pleasant? Awful?" Cas didn't answer him. "Well, just seeing what the arrangements are right now," He motioned to the bed. "I suspect it be pleasant. I could have guessed that you would like Dean as a demon, from the kink you had towards Meg." This triggered Cas.
"I never had a thing towards Meg, I was not myself." He defended. I put a hand on his shoulder to calm him down. I had to admit, when he kissed Meg I was really jealous. It was a hot kiss. Crowley raised his shoulders.
"What ever you say, Angel. Anyhow, I am here for Cain," He looked at me and I cocked my head. "I thought since maybe you are Cain now, you should be trained." I got out of the bed and put on a shirt.
"You are not training me!" I snapped at him. I could feel Cas kind of jump, and Crowley smirked.
"Well, seeing that your eyes just turned black when you got angry, I don't think you need much training. A little more Cain than you thought huh?" I looked into the mirror and saw the darkness. I blinked it away. "And I know what you're thinking Oh Crowley I don't like this, is there any possible way to take it away?, and to that I will say no." I shoved him against the wall with that and snarled at him.
"There has to be, I can not be like this...An abomination." This time I could feel the black descend on my face. He just gave me one of his stupid ass smirks and disappeared. I punched the wall. It didn't hurt, so I kept doing it until there was a whole in the wall.
"Dean!" Cas yelled when I started punching next to the whole. "Dean, stop. Please you're hurting yourself," Cas walked up to me and took me by my shoulders and walked me away. Without warning tears started flooding my eyes and cascaded down my face. He sat me on the bed and let me rest my head on the crook of his neck. "It's okay, Crowley lies. We will find something to help," He reassured me by playing with my hair.
"Cas, it won't be okay. Cain was like this forever, and I will be too. I am an abomination, Cas," I said through tears. He took a hold my face so I could look him in the eyes.
"Hey, I would rather have you, cursed or not remember?" He smiled and kissed me. My tears gradually stopped after multiple kisses and hugs from my Angel. "Okay?"
"Okay." We both then got up and headed out into the bunker to find Sam on his laptop.
"Oh, Crowley came in and told me to tell you hi," Sam said once he saw us walk in. "I've been researching all night about Cain, and I got some things but nothing on how we could take that side of you out. Sorry Dean. I then just started looking for a case." Sam turned his laptop around for Cas and I to read. Five People's Eyes Burned Out at Local Bar. "Seems like our thing, angels. Cas, do you think it was Metatron?" Cas read more of the article before answering.
"Yes, most likely. This is probably a warning or intimidation. He thinks Dean is dead, so he thinks he can get away with more," Sam and I nodded. "We should go" He looked at me and I smiled.
"I agree, show this dipwad that I am still living," Sam closed his laptop and we started to get our things and walk out the door. We got to my baby we took our seats. It only took around twenty minutes to get to the Bar, I knew it well. "Cas, still got the fake ID I gave you?" He pulled it out of his trench coat with a proud smile on his face. My mind raced back to the first day I gave it to him, felt like so long ago. He had been though so much and he still had it. I smiled back, a smile filled with joy and hope, a smile I save for him and Sammy. I opened my door but I couldn't get out. I tried again and again and I was stuck. I looked up and remembered I trapped this whole car. I growled then looked at Sam. "Can you umm, scrape of a piece of the devils trap Sammy?" I asked trying not to get angry. He didn't laugh, but he took out his knife and did as I asked. "Thanks" I breathed out. Great, now my own baby hates me. The three of us then walked up to the yellow tape and showed our badges, Cas's again upside down. "So, what happened?" I asked one of the detectives already there once we got in.
"No idea. Anything glass is shattered, five people have their eyes burned out of there sockets, nothing was stolen, and security camera's got not on it," The rather chubby man with a redneck accent said to us. "We have seen these things in the past all around the country, but we still have no explanation. I'll let you guys take a look," He left leaving us next to a dead waitress.
"Well, this is definitely angel work," Sam said as he bent down and observed the wholes where the eyes should be. Cas and I walked to the other bodies to check them out. As I was about to kneel down, through the window I saw the back of a short man. I elbowed Cas to look at him and whispered Metatron. The two of us raced outside leaving Sam to the bodies.
"Hey, Metadouche!" I yelled. He turned around and his eyes widened. "Yea, I am alive. I don't die that easily. Here to admire your work?" He looked me up and down then to Cas.
"Well, my work is quite nice isn't it? Who wouldn't want to marvel at it? Castiel, you playing detective now with the Winchesters?" Cas said nothing, just stared at him. "Well, I can clearly see that you are angry with me because I told you Humanity was dead," He shrugged and smiled at me.
"Humanity?" I asked.
"Oh yes! That is your nickname now," I shook my head. "God, you can be an idiot. When Castiel first came down here all he wanted to do was save humanity, back then that meant the human race. But as he played with you for a while, he just wanted to make sure you were safe. And Sam of course, but that was different. You became 'Humanity' to him. Hence the nickname Humanity," I shifted my weight and just glared at him. "I think it's quite clever actually, but everyone's a critic," His tone showed no fear. I looked over to Cas, who showed a subtle pink color. "Okay, well it was nice talking to you boys, but got to dash, you know the whole taking over heaven thing," I grabbed his shirt.
"You are not going anywhere." I said. He turned around and looked at me like it was normal for people to push him around. "You are coming back to the bunker with us." I stated still gripping his shirt.
"You know Dean, I know what you and your angel are planning. And I got rid of his grace. It's gone. So, kill me, but Castiel is still going to die with me," I gritted my teach ready to say something back, but Cas put his hand on my arm. All I ended up doing was grabbing the cuffs from the trunk, and put him in the back seat with them on his wrists. I looked around trying to see if he came there with anyone. "I came here alone. After the incident with Gadreel, I decided to work alone," He stated. I slammed the door in his face and walked back to the crime scene with Cas.
"Dude, I got Metatron in the backseat, we have to go," I said to Sam who was talking to a family member. His eyes widened.
"What? You just stumbled upon him?" He waved him hands toward the car while we walked over.
"No, well kind of. I looked out the window and he was just standing there. He is not very good at concealing himself," We got into the car and when Cas got into the backseat with Metadouche he decided to knock him out. The last thing I heard from the short angel was Castiel, then a thud. I looked back at Cas and gave him a dorky thumbs up. He smiled and sat relaxed to the ride home.
Once we got back I had Sam bring him to the dungeon. "Cas, is he lying about not having his grace? He must have it, he could use it as leverage if he chose,"
"He is lying, When I was last in his office when he told me you were dead," He voice got soft. "I saw it in a cabinet across the room," He walked over to the kitchen and got two beers for us.
"Thanks. Well we could always leave him in the dungeon, because there is no way he could get out of there, and you could go to Heaven and steal it." I sat on the table and looked at him.
"Well, yes, but everyone in that place hates me and would kill me in a second. We would have to keep the handcuffs on him, bring him in with me and make it look like I am the one in trouble, then I would be able to steal my grace." He took a sip of beer and walked in between my legs. "Then, you and I can kill him." He added softly. I rested my head on his and smiled.
"That was the most romantic thing you have ever say to me." I whispered smiling. He put his arms around me and I did the same. Just as we about to conjoin lips my moose of a brother walked in on us and started talking.
"Alright, so Metatron..." His voice slowed when he saw us. We got untangled and acted like nothing happened. "Umm, he is in the dungeon. Did you guys think of a plan when I was gone or were you too busy with each other?"
"Shut up Sammy, we got a plan," After that I explained to him what we were going to do. He liked it. We all agreed that we would commence it the next day. So Cas and I went to bed, while Sam stayed up still researching Cain.
