Hello my darlings. I would like to thank Little Cinch for the lovely reviews. I would also like to thank all you lovely people who have followed and favoured since my last update.
So here we are the next morning.
Enjoy.

The next morning Castiel woke up earlier than he normally would and as such got the luxury of lying in his bed and relaxing before the start of the day. Of course his brain woke up at that point and started buzzing at him. First it reminded that today was the day of Deans next lesson. He still wasn't 100% sure how he felt about that. The next thing his mind brought up was the last thing Crowley had said to him the night before. That family was important. And however much Castiel tried to deny it he knew the man was right. In which case he was going to have to make up with Gabriel. At that he sighed. He hated it when he had to admit he was wrong, especially to his brother, and to him it seemed to happen far more than Castiel would like. But be that as it may he had been wrong and childish in his behaviour towards Gabriel and Dean. Okay he still may not like the idea of them being together, but he was just going to have to suck it up. With that and a groan he pulled himself from, his bed. If he was going to make up to Gabriel he had better come bearing a peace offering of some sort.
Gabriel woke early as well, but he bounded out of his bed rather than lazying in it as he pulled his phone to him and dialled a number whilst whistling to himself.
"What?" came a decidedly grumpy voice down the phone. Hmm, he guessed that Dean-o wasn't a morning person then. He would definitely get on well with Cassie. His brother also did not do mornings if he could help it.
"Now is that anyway to greet the new love of your life Dean-o?" He smirked down the phone making sure he sounded as upbeat and chirpy as he could.
"What the hell do you want?" Dean groaned at him down the line as if this was his worst nightmare.
"I need you to pick me up and drive me to work." Gabriel replied as if it was obvious.
"Why?" Dean asked extremely confused. Surly Gabriel did not need him to chauffeur him around.
"Because I left my car there last night when I got into yours." Gabriel explained with an eye roll. Why did he think?
"So? I'm sure you have a garage full of others, or you could just get a taxi." Dean grumbled back. There was no way he was going to be going anywhere near that airfield until he had too.
"True to both, but I went on a date with you Dean-o. Don't you think it would be nice to drive me to work after our night together?" Gabriel asked suggestively making Dean realise just what he wanted to imply with Dean dropping him off.
"I'm not that cheap Gabe. I don't have sex on a first date." he said adamantly.
"Pity it was fantastic." Gabriel replied in a melodramatic voice laced with amusement.
"You worry me, you know that?" Dean asked conversationally, he couldn't believe he was still even listening to this conversation. Why hadn't he hung up yet?
"Does that mean you'll come pick me up and drive me to work then?" Gabriel asked cheekily, he was pretty sure he knew the answer, but maybe he could wear the man down. After all, nothing more likely to get Cassie's blood pumping in jealously than seeing Dean-o drop him off after a night of passion.
"No. And no more dates Gabriel. I Mean it, its over." Dean demanded, though he had a horrible sinking feeling that it would do no good. That Gabriel would do as he wanted, screw everyone else's wishes.
"I'm heartbroken." Gabriel replied dryly as he chuckled to himself.
"Whatever, I'm hanging up now." And with that the line went dead. Gabriel smirked evilly at the phone in his hand. Oh Dean-o, you really have no idea do you?
"Should I even ask?" came a woman's voice from behind him filled with an amusement that matched his at his antics, she only heard his side of the conversation but it was enough.
"Probably best not to." Gabriel replied turning to see the most gorgeous creation on earth, or at least in his opinion, leaning against the door frame in only a red negligée. Walking over to her, he pulled her into his arms before kissing her passionately. After that both he and his girlfriend were slightly late for work, but at least she did give him a lift to the airfield.
When Castiel arrived he saw that Gabriel's car was still in the same parking space as it had been the previous evening, though to be fair his brother could have just parked there again. Though his suspicions that Gabriel hadn't come back to get it were confirmed when he got to the office and found it locked. Juggling the items he had in his hand he finally found his much unused keys and opened up. Walking into the office he placed the coffee he had purchased for his brother from his favourite coffee shop down on his desk and then straightened the appointment book he had left carelessly tossed open the last evening. Standing back and nodding he decided that that would do for now and as such went out to the hanger so he could get ready for the day. Though he did leave the door to the office open so he would hear when his brother arrived. He refused to look at the time, not wanting to even think of reasons that Gabriel could be late after his date the night before.
Gabriel walked up to the office door with a smug grin on his face and his hair still wet from the shower. Though the smug look fell when he walked through the door and saw a coffee cup on his desk. What the hell?
"Good morning Gabriel. I brought you a coffee." came Castiel's voice as he walked through from the hanger, and in a surprisingly pleasant tone. Just what was his little bro up to now?
"Why?" he asked approaching the cup with caution as if it would explode at any moment.
"I had it brought to my attention that I may have been a bit of an assbutt to you about Dean." Castiel replied still amicably.
"By who?" Gabriel asked completely confused. He had never seen his brother listen to... well anyone. If anything he usually did the exact opposite of what people suggested.
"A man I met last evening." Castiel replied with a wave of his hand. The who was unimportant, he was trying to make up here.
"A man?" Gabriel asked in a suggestive tone as a smirk appeared on his face and he settled into his chair, though he still hadn't touched the coffee.
"Not like that Gabriel, get your damn head out of the gutter, just cos you're getting some doesn't mean we all are." Castiel snapped, he could only do so much being nice to his brother after all and that smirk was definitely the limit.
"Who said anything about me getting some?" Gabriel replied innocently though the smug smile he had on his face when he arrived repapered, and though it was there because of a different person than Castiel suspected, the reason was the same. He had indeed 'got some'.
"Your smug ass grin." Castiel spat at him, trying really hard to rain in the feelings he had, which he didn't understand and flatly refused to admit could possibly be jealously. Crowley may have been right about the family thing, but not about any of the rest thank you very much. He was not interested in Dean Winchester, in any way.
"For your information, Dean-o doesn't do sex on a first date." Gabriel replied trying really hard not to laugh at his brothers reactions. Oh this truly was priceless he though as he watched Castiel narrow his eyes at him and turn and march out of the room.
Once Castiel had gone he turned his eyes to the coffee cup, inspecting it from all sides before he gingerly pickled in up and studied it closer. He then pulled of the lid and checked the contents inside, smelling it just to make sure. He then took a very cautious sip. Pulling back he looked at it once more raising one eyebrow. Seemed his brother really had just got him coffee, well wonders never cease. With that he took a good long swallow of coffee before turning to the work he had to do that day.
