Sam knew Dean's body language well enough to know that something about that call was bothering him. "So… What did Cas say?"

Dean hesitated for several seconds longer than he had intended to and that would cause Sam to become suspicious. Yet he was between a rock and a hard place. Right now Zeke was being true to his word about not appearing without a life threatening problem. But the angel had made it clear Castiel was not welcome.

He looked at Sam for just a minute and snapped the phone closed. He might have an idea on how to put off telling Zeke and finding out why the name Shiloh freaked Castiel. "Give me a minute, alright."

"Sure Dean," Sam said following the older Winchester down the hall to Dean's room. Both men stopped in their tracks. There sitting in the middle of Dean's bed Indian style palms up. The two men exchanged looks before Dean cleared his throat. "Make yourself comfortable why don't you."

Shiloh didn't even open her eyes the tension in Dean's voice told her what she needed to know. "I take it your angel is a little put out that I am here. He is coming to rescue you and besides the obvious problem of why he would need to rescue you there is the fear about other angels."

"That sounds about right," Dean answered stepping into the room in front of his brother. "Tell me why ganking you right now isn't the best answer for everyone."

"Dean…"

"What Sammy? You should have heard Cas. He was practically freaking out on the other end of the line."

"A little melodramatic aren't we Dean," Shiloh said opening her eyes finally and straighten out her legs. She scooted from the middle of the bed trying to ignore the fact it made her look mortal. But then again maybe it was to her advantage.

Dean's hands clenched at his sides in an attempt to control that thought to rush into the room and shove the angel blade deep in her heart. Her words about trading Zeke for Cas had some truth to it. And he was curious if she could heal his brother. "Can you?"

Shiloh looked at Dean gauging what she should say. She also noticed Sam was getting a little antsy behind him. She knew why both were upset. Dean was terrified that when Castiel got here Ezekiel would split and his brother would die. The thing is Ezekiel wasn't going to leave. He was scared to stay and scared to go. Maybe she could alleviate some of that fear after all if the boys were going to live through this one they would all have work together.

"Let me tell you about angels…"

"I don't need a freaking history lesson. I need a reason not to gank you right now."

"Dean."

"What Sammy. We are just asking for trouble."

Sam glanced around the room once and lingered on Shiloh for a moment. Dean had said Castiel was freaking out but it looked like to him it was more Dean. Which was odd as his brother always had a bring it on attitude for the supernatural. "Maybe what she can tell us will help, with Bartholomew."

"Bartholomew is as humans say is a prick. He forgot what it was like to be human and he has only been an angel for a thousand years. He throws his weight around causing angels like Daniel , Ezekiel, and even Anna to forget they have been angels for longer."

"Wait, the angels were once human?"

"Of course some of them were. After aren't most demons humans who have been twisted. Heaven mirrors Hell or Hell mirrors heaven depending on who you talk to."

Sam was intrigued and slid past Dean to get into the room. He stopped for a moment when Dean grabbed his arm. "I am going to sit on the chair. She is in a ring of fire."

Dean sighed and rubbed his temple with his thumb before leaning up against the door jamb to finish listening to what she had to say. He didn't know if she did it intentionally but he got a reprieve from telling Sam/Ezekiel that Cas was coming."

"Why didn't Cas tell us this?"

"Because your angel is the real deal. He was created as an angel he didn't get a promotion so to speak. The angels that are created don't think about the difference but they are the ones with the higher ranking jobs. They mostly think of classes not of types. On the other hand angels, who were once human and died still, carry a lot of human traits. Competition and pride being two of more enduring qualities."

Dean had to hand it to Sam when his brother was right he was right. There was a lot of information they could use to get the better or stay under the radar of the angels if they could trust the source. He used to be able to trust his gut but recently that hadn't worked out so well. After all his last one cost him his best friend. "Tell me this, you said he was a prick, but will this prick come banging down our door?"

"NO, not even if Castiel was here. Bartholomew is someone who lets others do the hard work and steps in at the final battle to take the glory. He is you angel version of Dick Roman a planner, not a fighter. You have faced and won stronger and more cunning angels than him. Zachariah for one. He will wait until all of his angels have bodies before he starts anything. Truthfully I would be more worried about the Demon Knight hunting you."

"And who's body are you wearing," Dean sneered.

"No ones. I told you I was a different kind. I am a guardian. I have to be what you need when you need it. I don't have time to search for bodies when your life is on the line."

Sam interrupted, "wait you just said that angels don't think in types just classes."

Shiloh held up a finger and waggled it back and forth, "No I said most times they don't think about kinds and they don't. As a matter of fact they don't like to think of my kind at all. That is unless they want us to do something for them."

"See I told you they were all dicks," Dean snorted as he reached into his pants pocket to pull out the ringing cell phone.

Sam watched his brother carefully trying to judge the conversation from Dean's side. From what he could tell it sounded like Kevin. For a moment he thought he saw Dean waiver like a vision and then nothing. It was as if the blink took longer than normal. What he didn't know was Ezekiel was out.

"You are not telling them everything."

"No I'm not Ezekiel. It's a little hard to get Dean to trust me when he is freaking out that you are going to abandon Sam if Castiel comes."Shiloh murmured to the angel peaking from behind Sam's eyes.

"He doesn't belong here. He is going to bring Bartholomew and I am in no shape to defend even myself. Besides you don't know what he will do to me once he finds me."

Shiloh glared at the man/angel sitting in the chair just in front of her. She glowered enough that Ezekiel had to look away. "Trust me right now. Sam and Dean are mine and if you cause them any harm… what that pathetic excuse for an angel Bartholomew will do will pale in comparison. I chose you for this and you will follow through. Do you hear me?"

If the angel controlling Sam's body could cringe he would have. He was damned either way. "Fine, I won't leave when Castiel comes."

"Good, and now when Dean gets off the phone with his little prophet you tell him that you're staying and continuing to heal Sam even though Castiel is coming back."

"Coming back?"

Shiloh nodded she was going to have to wrap this up Dean wasn't going to be on the phone that much longer. "Yes, he's staying. It has started. The prophet is telling him right now about a place they say god's hand touched and no one's been able to translate it."

Fear passed over the angel's eyes as he turned and looked at Dean. He stood and walked over to the older Winchester up to put as much distance between himself and Shiloh.

Dean hadn't missed the powwow taking place between the angels but he couldn't do anything about it. Kevin was freaked out about some new message he was supposed to translate. When Sam turned around and looked at him Dean immediately glanced at the eyes. He didn't want to say anything if Sam was still at the wheel.

"Dean, Shiloh was reminding me that I was an angel before Bartholomew and even half strength with you guys and Castiel we shouldn't worry about him. You don't have to worry that I will leave when Castiel moves back in with us here."

Dean was hesitant to believe his good fortune. "Yeah?"

"Yes."

"Good lets wake up Sammy and tell him the good news."

"Very well."

"Wait," Shiloh said from the bed. "You too have to be more careful. He was sitting in the chair before you and I had our conversation. What is he going to think if he is standing by Dean and doesn't remember walking over there? Dean is the worst liar to him. Which is hilarious seeing the amounts of time they spend 'keeping' things from each other? Dean loosen up for heaven's sake the more you try to keep it from him the more you slip. "

Dean watched the angel on the bed as Ezekiel walked back to the chair to make it appear nothing changed. "Why are you helping me keep this from him?"

Shiloh smiled softly Dean was trying to trust but he couldn't quite make it. "Soon Dean, I will tell you everything, but for right now know this you are mine to protect and guide. I will do everything in my power to prove that you and the rest of the world. Now get back on the phone and finish talking to Kevin while Ezekiel wakes up Sam."
