"Stay away from Dean."

Castiel closed his locker and turned to stare at the other omega but not really staring at her. "Why is that?"

"He's just going to leave you right away anyway." She looked down at the hall and sighed. "Stay away from him or I'll make sure you regret it." The omega left after glaring at him again.

A few seconds later Dean showed up. "Hey Cas."

"Hello Dean." He smiled as Dean wrapped an arm around his shoulder. "My brothers are going to see," he whispers. They had been hanging out, out of view of his brother, for the past week. Dean pressed his lips to Castiel temple before moving to his ear. "It certainly adds a sense of danger, doesn't it?"

"Dean," Castiel pressed his hands to the alpha's chest pushing him away a little. "No PDA."

"Fine, then hang out with me outside of school." Dean gave him his best puppy dog look.

"You know I can't do that."

"You said that Gabriel doesn't hate me. Couldn't he cover for you?"

"Maybe, I'd have to ease him into it. He might demand that he join us." The omega smiled into the other's gorgeously green eyes.

"Well I don't know about that, he's not nearly as cute as you are." Dean nuzzled his stubbly cheek. "You need to shave Cas."

"I can't, Gabriel and Michael steal the bathroom after five minutes so unless you want me coming to school smelling like a foot, deal with it."

Dean shook his head. "Hmm, I think I can handle the stubble."

"Good." Castiel sighed and picked up his bag from the floor. "I have to go meet my brothers, good bye Dean."

"Ugh fine, but I'm stealing you tomorrow. Okay?"

"Maybe." Castiel hugged him quickly before going to find his brothers.

"Who is that," a floppy haired freshman asks coming up behind Dean.

"No one you should be worried about Sammy." The older alpha wrapped an arm around the younger one's shoulder. "How was your day?"

"Well, if you have to know, Jess kissed me," Sam smiled proudly at his older brother.

"My little brother's first kiss, how adorable is that?" They started walking towards the exit. Dean caught a glance of Castiel walking with his brothers. Michael was yelling at him about something and Castiel just nodded along to whatever he was saying. The alpha growled a little but otherwise ignored it. "So how was it?"

"Wet, is that good?"

Dean snorted and ruffled his hair as they parted so they could get in the opposite sides of the car. "Where to, Sammy?"

"Home please."

"Alright."

…

Castiel left Dean and went to find his brothers. There Michael was arms crossed, glaring at him. "You're in big trouble."

Castiel stopped in front of him, ducking his head. "What did I do?"

"You know what you did." Michael glared down at him. "When we get home we're having a long chat."

Castiel wanted badly to yell at his brother to mind his own business but kept his mouth shut instead.

"Michael!" Gabriel went to jump on him but stopped short when he sensed the mood. "I take it Michael figured out about you and Dean?"

"You knew," Michael roared turning on his other brother.

"No I just figured. I mean it was kind of obvious." Gabriel rolled his eyes at him.

Lucifer twirled his keys around his finger and walked past them. "Come on," he says not even looking at them.

Castiel tried to walk a distance behind them like usual but Michael put a hand to the back of his neck and made him walk faster. "Michael stop!"

"Shut up."

Castiel was extremely surprised when Michael got in back with him and let Gabriel have the front.

"Lucifer," Michael says, leaning forward in the seat so he was right next to the other alpha. "Will you take Gabriel somewhere?"

Gabriel looked back at Castiel and offered an affectionate smile. Castiel responded by gulping and silently begging his brother not to leave him.

Lucifer nodded. "Don't hurt him too much."

Michael actually opened the door when Lucifer stopped the car to get out, and then stared at a scared looking Castiel until he got out as well. "Come on Castiel, don't put off the inevitable."

Castiel changed his focus to Michael. "Please Michael."

"Castiel, get in the fucking house!" Michael was starting to visibly rage so Castiel carefully slipped past him and into the house.

"Take it easy on him," Gabriel urges.

"Give me three hours," Michael orders. He turned and followed Castiel into the house. His omega brother was sitting on the couch staring at his folded hands. "I told you to stay away from Winchester."

"There's nothing going on with Dean and me. We're just friends."

"I don't give a shit; you shouldn't be hanging around alphas." Michael sat down next to him and for a second actually looked sympathetic but his face hardened quickly. "It's bad enough you hang around Balthazar but back then it was easier. He's a senior Cas, he's going to expect things from you, things that you're not ready for."

"Why don't you let me decided if I'm ready for them?" Castiel turned looking at him. "I'm capable of saying no. Besides Dean and I aren't even together."

"Not yet but you like him don't you?" Michael grabbed his hand and ran his fingers over his knuckles.

"I don't know."

"A-huh." Michael ran his free hand through his hair.

"Are you going to punch me?"

"I'm considering it."

Castiel nodded. "Will you get it over with then?"

"No, you're going to read five articles on male alpha and male omega sex and then I'm going to answer any questions you have. After that you get to see a hundred picture presentations of complications with knotting in male omegas. If I still feel like beating you up after that and have time, I'll proceed to do so."

Castiel finished reading the articles and watching the presentation as quickly as possible. Once he was done, Michael patted his head and ruffled his hair. "If I find out that you and Winchester ever get past first base, I will hurt you. Understand?"

"Yes."
