16. Cooking
"It doesn't look very appetizing," said Castiel, staring at the pot of boiling water and stick-straight spaghetti noodles. "They look like worms."
"That's because it's not done cooking yet, and they're not worms. Just pasta," Bobby announces, grabbing a can of Ragu and some garlic from the cabinet. He grabs a pan from below the sink and pours the sauce in, adds the garlic. Then a little extra, just for kicks. It never hurts.
"When will this meal be finished?"
"When the spaghetti is cooked-through and easily cut."
Castiel looks over the boiling pot when Bobby's back is turned and grabs a noodle from the pot. He yelps and drops it on the floor.
"You're not supposed to grab the noodles with your hands, ya idjit!" Bobby yells and runs the angel over to the sink to put his hand under cold water.
"I just wanted to see if the noodles were complete," he said, staring at the offending limb like it had burnt itself on purpose.
Bobby rolls his eyes. "There is so much about being human you have no idea about, then, huh?"
Castiel watches the water spill off his fingers, the pain dulling in his hand.
"I believe that is correct."
