'DEAN!'

Castiel threw down his spoon into his bowl, flinging cereal all over the table, the angel almost tripping over his own feet as he ran full pelt into Bobby's hallway.

'Hey, buddy!' cried Dean, kneeling down and hugging the squealing toddler, dark hair ruffling his nose.

'I missed you...' sobbed Cas, tears streaming down his face, blue eyes watery but happy. 'You've been gone ages!'

Dean chuckled, sitting back on his haunches, slightly squashed against his bags, his angel and Bobby's hallway. 'I've only been gone two days, Cas. You been good for Uncle Bobby?'

'Uh huh' Cas nodded, jumping back into Dean's arms as the hunter moved to stand up. 'Where's Sammy?'

'He's out by the car' Dean told him, holding Cas around the middle with one arm, carrying his overnight bag with the other, traipsing into Bobby's living room where Gabriel was sat watching cartoons.

'Hey, Gabe' he grinned at the brunette angel, who turned and smiled at him.

'Hey, Dean!' he exclaimed, leaning forwards on the brown cotton sofa. 'Where's Sam?'

Dean grinned and looked back into the hallway. 'Just coming.' He informed Gabriel, and sure enough Sam came lumbering through the house, dropping his bag and shooting his brother a look.

'Nice of you to help with the equipment, Dean.' He said, crossing his arms and giving out his Bitch Face.

'You're very welcome, Sammy boy.' Smiled Dean, looking down at Castiel in his arms, who giggled.

Sam just sighed and looked at Gabriel, who looked thrilled to see him. 'Hey, Gabe' smiled the youngest Winchester.'

He walked over to Gabriel who launched himself at him, enveloping him in a hug. 'Guess what I got you, little man.'

'A present? I got a present?' Gabriel's eyes widened.

'Yep, sure do.' Sam brought out a bag. 'Here.'

'Oooh.' Gabriel dove into the bag, pulling out its contents.

'SWEETIES!' he yelled, pushing his hands into the air and doing a little victory dance on the sofa. 'I love sweeties!'

Sam grinned, looking at his brother, who was watching with a smile on his face.

Dean looked down and to his surprise Cas looking up at him with tears in his eyes.

'Dean?'

'What's wrong, Cas?'

Castiel wound his little arms around Dean's neck. 'I don't like sweeties...I don't have a present!'

With that, the angel buried his head in Dean's neck, making little sobbing noises. Dean's heart wrenched and he put a hand to the back of Cas's head, stroking his hair tenderly.

'Hey, Cas...' he soothed, the angel looking up at him slowly. 'Don't you think its a good idea then that I didn't get you any sweeties?'

Cas furrowed his brows. 'Huh?'

'Did you think I forgot about you?' Dean asked, balancing as he pulled something out of the bag at his feet.

'No...well...' Cas trailed off, a pink tinge colouring his cheeks.

Dean smiled, eyes soft. 'Here you go...I bought you this instead, seeing as you don't like sweeties.'

Castiel's eyes widened as he saw what Dean had handed him. It was a blue teddy bear, similar to his other toy, but this one just looked better. It had a little black nose and bright green eyes, its little ears all fluffy at the top.

The angel looked up at the hunter, mouth open. 'Thank you, Dean.' He stuttered, eyes filling back up with tears.

'You're welcome, buddy.' Smiled Dean, hugging the angel again, looking down at his brother who was still sat with Gabriel.

'I bet you two idjits didn't buy me a present, did ya?'

Dean swung around to grin at Bobby, the older hunter stood in his doorway, drying his hands after doing the washing up, a smile on his face.

'Oh ye of little faith.' Dean grinned, nodding at his brother, who pulled out another bag. 'The finest malt whisky for the finest baby-sitter.'

'Oh boys, I was only joking!' Bobby exclaimed as Sam handed him the bottle of amber liquid.

'No, we owe you one, Bobby. You didn't have to look after the kids.'

'I was glad to.' Bobby grinned at the two angels, who had now moved to sit together in Bobby's reading chair, Gabriel chomping his way through a chocolate bar whilst Cas hugged his bear close to his chest.

Bobby moved to stand next to Dean. 'How was the hunt?'

'Good, just a witch in Minnesota.' Dean shrugged, stretching his arms above his head. 'You got a shower going? I would kill for some hot water right now'

'Sure, you know where it is...you don't need to ask.'

'Thanks...' Dean took another look at Cas before striding out the room.

'He's pissed cos he got chucked down a well.' Sam informed Bobby, who furrowed his brows.

'He hurt?'

'Nah, just sore cos there was cold water in the bottom.' Sam smiled, sitting down on the now unoccupied sofa, Bobby joining him.

The youngest hunter turned to the angels.

'Who wants to go outside?'

-x-

'Gabriel, watch out of the water!'

Sam jogged down the path to catch up with eldest angel, who was fast approaching a small pond, more of a puddle, in the back of Bobby's yard.

Castiel held on tight to Bobby's hand as they made a slower walk to the pond, where Gabriel was sure he had seen fish in earlier.

'Gabe...slow down!'

'I am slowed!'

Sam grabbed hold of the angel's coat hood just before he stepped into the water, Gabriel looking up at him with wide eyes. 'See?'

Sam sighed and pulled him backwards, kneeling down. 'Just be careful, ok?'

'Yeah yeah...' Gabriel broke free of Sam's grip, running over to his brother who was watching the ripples in the water.

'Look, Cas! Fishies!'

Castiel gave his brother a look, before ignoring him, going back to watching his ripples. Gabriel watched his brother before grabbing his hand.

'Me and Cassie are gonna look behind the bush' he told Sam and Bobby, pointing to a clump of bushes on the other side of the river.

'Alright, be careful; we'll be right here.' Sam told him, sitting down on the floor, folding his long legs up beneath him.

'Yay!' Gabriel pulled Castiel around to the other side of the river, behind the bushes and knelt down. He looked around for a few moments before grinning. 'Look, I told you there were pets around here!'

'That's not a pet, Gabwiel! That's a frog!' Cas wrinkled up his nose, looking down at the slimy brown creature his brother had found.

'Frogs are pets, aren't they?'

'Nuh huh!' Cas sat down on his bottom, not looking at the frog, grabbing his ankles and hugging down to the ground.

'Sure they are... I want this one as a pet!' With that, Gabriel picked up the frog, which made an indignant noise and tried to jump away. Gabriel caught it and picked it up, bringing it up to his face before putting it in his pocket.

'See, Cas.' He said, looking at his brother. 'Now it's a pet frog!' he smiled smugly, using his hands to push himself up.

Castiel glared at his brother, standing up also, looking over to Sam and Bobby who were talking animatedly.

Gabriel marched out of the bushes, his brother following, blue eyes shining as he saw Dean coming towards him.

'What'cha got there, Gabe?' asked Dean, noticing the bulge in the angel's pocket.

'Nothing.' Gabriel told him, running into the house, not looking back. Dean sighed and looked at Cas, who shrugged.

He looked over at his brother and surrogate father.

'Dinners up!'

-x-

They had just finished Dean's homemade macaroni cheese, Sam leaning back in his chair and belching.

'That was' started the youngest Winchester. 'Surprisingly good.'

Dean bowed at the table, mopping up the rest of the sauce with some bread. 'I aim to please.' He grinned, Cas grinning to as he chewed through his last mouthful.

'Now...' Dean said, collecting all the plates. 'Bed time!'

Gabriel groaned, Cas joining in. 'But I wanted to eat more sweeties!' cried the eldest angel.

'No more sweets today, Gabe.' Dean told him, standing up. 'Come on you two; up those stairs!'

Trudging up behind the angels, the eldest Winchester followed them into the shared bedroom, sorting out the pyjamas as they took off their outside clothes. Gabriel yawned and almost fell over with one leg still inside his trousers.

'Good boy, Gabe.' Smiled Dean, handing him his trousers.

Both angels yawned and grinned as they settled into bed, both almost falling asleep instantaneously. Dean watched them for a few moments before gathering all the dirty clothes for washing.

'What the-'

Dean stumbled on the stairs, his hands encircling Gabriel's trousers. Something moved, he thought. Something just definitely moved. Gingerly, teeth gritted, his pushed his hand into the pocket.

'Oh God!' he yelled, recoiling in horror, his hand slightly wet. 'What the hell?'

He looked down as his brother ran to the foot of the stairs. 'What's wrong, Dean?'

'I don't...know' Dean peered back into the pocket, this time grabbing whatever it was that was wet inside it.

'Is that a...'

'Frog? Yeah.' Dean grimanced, looking into the room where the angels where sleeping. 'Gabriel' he muttered.

Sam choked on silent laughter.

'Glad to be back?' he asked his brother.

'Oh I sure am, Sammy' Dean grinned, looking at the frog in his hand.

'Sure am.'

Hope you liked that!

Don't worry, we'll have teenage tearaways soon enough...teens can still be cute, right? ;D
