Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural.

Castiel arrived at the office of his and his brother's flight company expecting to have to open up as he had had to do the last time Gabriel had gone on a date with Dean. But when he tried to door on an automatic action it opened. Frowning he entered to find his brother already sitting behind his desk going through paper work. What the hell? That wasn't right. Surely if his date had gone well with Dean he would have been out late and therefore get to work late right? Hmm, it made his suspicions that Dean was using his brother even more certain in his mind. It must have been that Dean literally just went out for dinner with Gabriel. And it wasn't like his brother was made of money or anything. This business of theirs hadn't really taken off after all, and yes Castiel was well aware that that was mainly his fault for being a grumpy assbutt. But he had found it hard transitioning from being in the air force to being a civilian. So there. But back to the problem at hand, how was he going to question Gabriel about his date without him getting prissy thinking Castiel was trying to split him and Dean up so he could have him for himself? Not that he would ever do that, but still it seemed Gabriel to think he might, which hurt actually. But now was not the time for that. No now he had to work out the right question to ask. Hmm.

Gabriel heard the door open but didn't look up. He would wait for Castiel to instigate the conversation. He knew his brother would ask how his date went, he had become rather interested in Gabriel's love life after all. Or at least his fake love life, when he had thought Gabriel was in a long term relationship he hadn't even asked the woman's name. But when Castiel didn't say anything for like a minute and he didn't hear the door close he looked up only to see that his brother was just standing there in the doorway. What the hell?

"You auditioning for the job of doorstop Cassie? Because I really don't think we need one." Gabriel said in a dry tone making his brother move and shut the outside door and walk over to the coffee machine pouring himself a cup as Gabriel watched his every move.

"So, Gabriel. How was the date?" Castiel asked nonchalantly as he poured his coffee. After all the worse his brother could do was tell him to go jump out of his plane without a parachute.

"Okay, I guess." Gabriel replied still not taking his eyes off of Castiel.

At those words Castiel turned round to him and leaned against the counter, coffee in hand and returned the stare with equal measure.

"You want to talk about it?" He asked casually taking a sip of his coffee yet never letting his eyes leave Gabriel's.

"Dean and I have decided to just be friends. There's nothing between us, romantically speaking." Gabriel replied in an equally casual tone which had every one of Castiel senses on high alert. His brother was lying to him. The question about what, and why?

"Oh? Well I would say I'm sorry, but I don't believe he was right for you." Castiel said hoping to break through his brothers walls with his statement which just oozed I told you so.

"Agreed." Gabriel replied amicably making Castiel narrow his eyes at him. Gabriel was telling the truth about that. He really did think that he and Dean weren't suited. But, he had seemed so keen the other day when he asked Dean to dinner. It was obvious to Castiel that Gabriel did actually like the man. So the questions in his mind were what the hell had Dean Winchester done to his brother and how would he dispose of his body when he found out?

"So I take it we won't be seeing him again then." He ventured to say. One part of him hoped Gabriel would say that he was right. He didn't want his brother to have to see the man who had hurt him, but on the other hand, if he was to find out what had gone wrong, he really needed to see them interact with one another.

"Of course we will Cassie. He has a lesson the day after tomorrow." Gabriel replied as if he had no idea why Castiel would say such a thing making Castiel frown at him. In his experience, which yes was limited due to his previous career choice, when two people broke of a relationship they didn't tend to want to hang out with each other.

"He didn't cancel then?" He asked, to just make sure.

"Why would he? Dean and I agreed we were better off as friends." Gabriel replied with a shrug of his shoulders as if it was of no consequence making Castiel narrow his eyes once more.

"Right." was all he said in reply. He then took his coffee and left the office to go to the hanger and prepare angel for the flights he had that day, and to ruminate over all the different ways he could take his revenge on Dean Winchester for hurting his brother.

And Gabriel left in the office let out a sigh of relief. Well he had done his part and told Castiel that he and Dean were over and all was right, though by the look in his brother's eyes he wasn't sure he completely believed him, though he wasn't sure which part. I mean he knew he was a good actor, but surely he wasn't so good that Cassie had actually thought he really liked Dean, was he? That would be just stupid. With a shake of his head he went back to the paper work in front of him. Looking down he realised that what he was looking at was for one of his different companies and he was hearty glad that Castiel hadn't come over to see what he was working on. Putting it away in his draw he turned to the books for the flight company and got to work on them instead, putting all thoughts of Dean out of his mind with ease.
