Hello again, again. I would like to thank you lovely people who have favoured and followed since my last update.
So here's the next chapter. I hope you like it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural.
Once the plane was back on the ground and in the hanger Dean struggled to undo his seatbelt, somehow he had lost his hand eye co-ordination and as such it seemed stuck. Castiel who had gotten out and made his way round to Dean's side just shook his head as he opened the passenger door and leaned in to release him. Making Deans breathing go crazy again but this time for a whole other reason, rather than fear it was due to Castiel's proximity to him. Damn he really needed to get a hold of himself here.
Castiel took his time undoing Deans straps. He found he rather liked being up close and personal with the man. But no, that wasn't to be, he was dating Gabriel. Hmm, when Dean had left he and his brother where going to have a little talk about that. But that was for later. Right now he just needed to get Dean into the office.
With that in mind Castiel helped Dean out of the plane, and when it became clear that his legs wouldn't hold him up he slung Dean's arm over his shoulder and supported him to the door.
Once he had got it open he helped Dean into the room and placed him gently down on one of the chairs in front of Gabriel's desk and knelt down beside him, murmuring that everything was alright and rubbing Deans back as the man bent over and put his head in his hands.
"What's going on?" Gabriel asked. He had stood when he heard the plane return, though he hadn't gone to the hanger to see what had happened, he wasn't sure if he wanted to be confronted with what was no doubt to be a highly angry Castiel. But instead of Cassie storming in and landing him one as he expected he watched his brother carefully help Dean in and gently settle him down on a chair, all the while murmuring gentle and reassuring words to the guy. Well this was definitely something new, as such he really felt he should be clued in.
"Your boyfriends a little upset." Castiel responded snarkily at him. Ah yes there was the brother he knew and loved.
"What did you do Cassie?" He asked cautiously making his way round the desk so he could lean on it but not approaching the pair.
"Nothing I didn't even take him on a loop the loop or anything." Castiel defended, what did his brother think he had done?
"Its true, I just, I don't think I can do that again." Dean replied briefly raising his head so his eyes caught Gabriel's before he lowered it once more.
Gabriel was about to try to find a persuasive argument to keep Dean on their books when Castiel spoke. Though it was more the way he said the it than the words themselves.
"Why you doing this Dean?" Castiel asked gently to the man who was still completely white.
"Because my brother is getting married in freakin' Hawaii and I need to fly to get there." Dean replied sitting back in his chair and tipping his head back while keeping his eyes closed.
At his movement Castiel noticed just how close he was to the man who was supposedly dating his brother. With that he stood and took a step away so he was positioned at the same distance as Gabriel was from Dean, though he made the third point in the triangle (the irony of which was not lost on Gabriel, who lets be honesty was the only one who even understood it) before he spoke.
"So you have a choice then. You come back flying with me and we cure you of your fear or you don't attend his wedding, which is it to be?" Castiel asked, his tone returning to his normal 'I'm not taking any rubbish' one as he crossed his arms.
"I can't not go." Dean replied still not opening his eyes.
"Then its looks like you and I will be spending a lot more time together then. When's the wedding?" Castiel asked, wondering just how long he had to get Dean over his fear of flying, because failure was not an option in his mind. He would get Dean ready to get on that plane and go to his brothers wedding, oh he might not do it happily, but he would do it. Without having to be sedated.
"Two months." Dean replied, though it sounded more like a question as he opened his eyes to look at Castiel. Could this guy really do that? Get him okay to get to his brothers wedding?
"Right two lessons a week I think start with don't you? Book him in before lunch, I don't want puke all over my angel." Castiel snapped at Gabriel who had just stood there throughout the whole conversation smirking at him. His brother could deal with the man now, he was after all the one dating the guy. With that Castiel stormed back to the hanger to go and sort out his angel after her short flight.
After Castiel left Dean sat there regaining his equilibrium. Once he finally found that he was able to he straightened his head only to find that Gabriel was leaning on the desk staring at him
"What?" Dean asked defensively.
"Nothing, just don't think I have ever seen Cassie so caring." Gabriel replied contemplatively with a shrug. To be honest he hadn't seen that side of his brother for a very, very long time.
"Yeah well he wasn't that bad in the air either." Dean said running his hand over his face and through his hair. Finally adjusting to being back on solid ground.
"Is that so?" Gabriel asked with the raise of an eyebrow. Well, well this is certainly interesting.
"Yeah, well once he had got the whole you're dating my straight brother thing out of his system. Care to tell me why I'm dating Cas' straight brother?" Dean asked, well he was here he might as well get answers from the guy opposite him, and he was feeling much better now.
"Cas is it? And as for dating me, I want to make him jealous." Gabriel replied with a smirk making Dean frown. What?
"Why? And why would dating me make him jealous?" Dean asked he was seriously confused now.
"I told you last week he likes you, but he needs more than a one night stand. So I'm making him jealous so he realises this." Gabriel explained with a shake of his head. Was this guy blind or something? It was obvious that Cassie liked him.
"Who says I want something more than a one night stand hu?" Dean argued making Gabriel just look at him with disbelief. And continue looking at him until he caved. "Fine. I wouldn't say no to a relationship with someone, but I don't even know him." he tried to argue.
"Hence dating me. While you do that you are off limits to him and as such he'll have to actually talk to you, as a friend." Gabriel replied as if it really was that simple. Dean couldn't quite believe what he had just heard. I mean really?
"That's your plan? That's crazy!" he screeched.
"And?" Gabriel asked, it may be crazy but it would work, he was sure of it.
"How the hell did I end up getting involved in this?" Dean asked closing his eyes once more, though this time more due to the headache he could feel coming on due to Gabriel's craziness. And here he was thinking only Cas was the crazy one in this family.
"Its good for you Dean-o. Mischief keeps you young." Gabriel replied with a smirk and a waggle of the eyebrows which just made Dean groan, what had he gone and gotten involved in this time?
