Castiel was annoyed over his brothers fussing over him. He had wanted to stop thinking about it. He passed it off as him falling. Gabriel and Michael didn't give that as second thought but they still fussed over him.
It was morning now and Castiel's face hurt. He had taken three ibuprofens since last night. He hoped he wouldn't get to much attention for it at school.
He saw Lucifer pull in and slowly made his way out to the car. The way Lucifer looked made him feel even worse. He looked so upset about it.
"Hey," the alpha says to him as he sat in the back.
"Hi." Castiel looked as far away from him as possible.
"Did you tell your brothers?" Lucifer sounded rushed.
"I fell into the table."
Lucifer nodded turning back around.
The rest of the ride was uncomfortable to say the least and everyone could feel it. Castiel was glad to be out of the car and practically ran inside. Balthazar grabbed him very quickly though. "What happened to your face?" He looked extremely concerned.
"I fell and hit my head on our coffee table. You know how sharp it is on the corners."
"Fucking table, I'll kill it for you."
Castiel stared at him for a long second before shaking his head. "There's no need for that. Where's Anna?"
"Studying for things."
Castiel nodded and started again towards his locker.
"Are you going to abandon me for Dean again?" Balthazar actually sounded offended by it.
"Balthazar I know I've been spending an awful lot of time with him but he's the first guy I've actually ever been seriously interested in. I would like to keep him interested in me."
"Doesn't mean you have to abandon us?"
"I'll be hanging out with you and Anna after school Wednesday."
"If Dean doesn't take you away from us."
The blue eyed omega turned on him. "I can hang out with who I choose."
"Remember that when he leaves you," Balthazar shoots back before storming off.
Castiel stared after him, his face full of fury.
"Cas?" Dean's voice, it sounded so worried. "What happened to you? Are you okay?" He rested his hand on the uninjured side of Castiel's face. "Who did this?"
"I fell and I'm fine, it's just a scrape." Castiel smiled reassuringly at him.
"You have to be more careful, it looks painful."
"As I said Dean, it's fine. Can we move on to another subject?"
Dean reluctantly nodded. "So I know this is going to sound really fast but would you want to come over and have supper. Sam is going to make salad and I'm going to make burgers. Plus my Dad says he's going to show."
"Is your Dad not often home?" Castiel fell content as Dean wrapped an arm around his shoulder.
"Uh no, he's not, it's usually just Sam and I."
"Should I really come then?" Castiel stared up at the alpha, frowning.
"Yes otherwise you'll never meet him."
Castiel realized that meeting parents was a big step in a relationship and they weren't even dating yet. "Alright."
…
Dean was absolutely bored in History of Hierarchy. Lunch was fun though and he had been allowed to kiss Castiel afterwards.
"Now today," Ms. Mills says clearing her throat. "We are going to be talking about something that some of you will not be able to take maturely. I want you to remember that we have both alphas and omegas in this class and I don't want you being rude to one another. We are going to be talking about how alphas treated omegas up until the 1800's."
Dean looked up at the teacher intrigued.
"Of course over the course of time they had gained rights but it wasn't until the 1800's that they officially had the equal rights to alphas. We have talked about this all before though and now we need to talk about what it was like before the movement. In this unit you alphas may feel like I'm attacking you but I can assure you that, that is not the case."
Dean sat through the lecture as Mills explained how of the horrible things that were done to omegas in past. He really wished that this was part of the curriculum. The government decided though that seniors were ready and needed to hear this.
…
"I'm so excited to see Dad," Sam practically squeals in the back seat.
"I know Sammy, me too. Hopefully he'll actually show." Dean smiled at him looking behind him and not at the road. "Then he can meet Cas. Three alphas and an omega sit down for dinner, sounds like an un-domestic joke."
…
Castiel sat on the counter as Sam and Dean made dinner. He had offered to help a lot but eventually Dean just picked him up and set him on the counter ordering him to "stay". The omega had glared at him but did indeed stay.
When Dean put the burgers on the burner, Castiel had practically moaned from the scent. He had a thing for burgers.
Sam smiled as he heard a car pull into the driveway. Dean didn't respond but Castiel could see the hopeful look on his face. Then the door opened and Sam jumped up but forced himself to stay working on the salad.
"Hey boys," a man says, a man he assumed was Dean's father.
"Dad," Sam says happily confirming his beliefs.
"Hello Sam." John Winchester says hugging his son and ruffling his hair. "Dean," he says smiling at his other son. Then his eyes landed on Castiel who was still on the counter. The omega instantly felt awkward and slid off the counter, moving closer to Dean. "Hello."
"Hello," Castiel replies quietly.
"Dad this is Cas, he's my," the alpha paused for a second and gave an apologetic look to Cas before adding the word "boyfriend."
