When Castiel returned to the hanger he had calmed, not that he was going to let his brother know that, but he had. He didn't care anymore what he did, or at least that was what he told himself. Instead as he cleaned his angel he turned his mind to trying to think of ways he could get Dean to relax in the sky. He wasn't really sure how to get someone over the fear of flying, but he would find a way. Maybe he should find out what Dean liked, what would make him relax in the cockpit? Of course the easiest way to do that he guessed would be to ask Gabriel, but there was no way he was going to do that, no he was going to avoid talking to that man for as long as humanly possible. Hmm, he would have to sneak a look at Deans file instead. With that decided he nodded and flipped the radio he had in the hanger onto his favourite rock station as he got to work tuning up his plane. He would have to wait until his brother had left for the day before going to get it so he might as well make use of the time.
Gabriel had heard the plane return and had been waiting to see what Castiel would do next. But rather than enter the office he heard his brother switch on his radio which was a sure sign to Gabriel that he would be incommunicado for a while. He always liked his music while he was working on the plane. Gabriel was about to go into the hanger and see if they could talk but thought better of it. If Cassie wanted to talk he would come to him, and he was doing this for his brother. He would understand eventually. With that he went back to his work of trying to organise advertising for their company with no money.
Once Dean had left the airfield he had gone back to his garage, though not to work. No he instead just went and sat in his office as he tried to work out just what the hell was going on with the crazy Novak's and why in the hell he kept going along with their freakin' plans. I mean he wasn't crazy, was he? Well he must be as he kept agreeing to do stupid things, but this had to top the list. I mean dating a guy who was straight, and had a girlfriend for Christ sake, just to make his brother jealous? And let's be honest for all Gabriel's belief, Dean didn't agree with his assessment that Castiel felt that way about him anyway, I mean how could he? That guy was sex on legs, he could have anyone, why would he want Dean? So there really was no point with this ruse.
And yet he was still going along with it. He could have told Gabriel no but he didn't, so what did that say about him? Oh god he didn't have a secret thing for the guy did he? A quick analysis of his feelings confirmed that no he did not have any sort of sexual feelings for Gabriel. Which was good, very good. It seemed the only Novak Dean like was Castiel. So why was he doing this? Of course his reason was that he didn't want Castiel to know he had feelings for him, but surely he could just hide them, he didn't have to date Gabriel did he? No he didn't. So the solution was simple. He would call Gabriel and cancel. With that thought he picked up his phone, but rather than dialling the number he just starred at it. If he cancelled the date, would that make things awkward for his lessons? Cos while he had decided that the guy was definitely crazy and he had no feelings for him, Gabriel wasn't all that bad. But if he cancelled their 'date' would he have to pretend like he didn't want to talk to him or something? Oh god why was this so god damn complicated he thought resting his head on his desk and closing his eyes as he tried see a way out of this mess that Gabriel had created, though he had gone along with it. Okay, so he couldn't cancel cos that would be awkward, but he couldn't keep dating the guy cos that was just weird. So He would take Gabriel out for a drink tomorrow night and that would be it. Just one date, and then it would all be over. Okay he could do one date, and at least he wouldn't feel guilty about making Gabriel pay for it. The guy could definitely afford it multimillionaire that he was.
Gabriel left the office as he always did at 6 o'clock that evening. He even came into the hanger to say goodbye, not that Castiel gave any hint of registering his presence. But as soon as he had left Castiel snuck into the office and searched for Deans file. It took longer than he thought it would, mainly because he didn't do any of the paper work in this place and as such had no idea where it was kept, but he found it eventually and opening it up he realised there really wasn't that much inside. Only one sheet of paper containing personal information. His name, which he already knew thank you, his date of birth which informed Castiel that he was only two years younger than him, though why he needed to know that he didn't have a clue, and his occupation, mechanic and owner of Winchesters auto body shop. That could work. As a mechanic Dean would be interested in engines. Yes Castiel could work with that. With his mind coming up with various ideas that revolved around that theme he placed the file back where he found it and left the office, locking it behind him before returning to his plane to sit and think of the best way to use Deans occupation to get him to relax in angel.
