A/N Heyy guys I wasn't going to upload today so you're lucky! Also, sorry if there any typos or bits that don't make sense, I'm kinda shattered at the moment so I'll check it in the morning. Hope you enjoy! xD

Sam and Dean started to crack open a few beers with Gabriel, while Cas stood there, looking like a nervous kitten, just hovering awkwardly. Although he'd had alcohol before, it always seemed to scare him a bit, knowing that it was sinful and also he knew how much of a truth serum it was, he didn't want to end up blurting just anything out in front of his brother and the Winchester boys. So he internally decided to only have a few drinks so the full effect wouldn't get to him.

As soon as Dean had opened his own beer, he took a few big gulps, savouring the flavour. He then cracked open another, whilst turning his attention to the worried looking angel by the side of him and passing him the opened beer. "Cas, just try this beer, see if you like it. It probably won't have much of an effect on you alcohol-wise but if you like it then you can drink as many as you want. Otherwise just down some vodka, because if you don't get at least slightly tipsy, then the rest of us are gonna be acting like crazy people and you'll probably be bored out of your mind and I don't want you bored, I want to have fun and you should be included in that seeing as you are my best friend." Dean gave his full attention to Cas as he explained, being overly nice (although he was always nicer to Cas anyway) but starting to witter on a bit as he drank his beer.

Castiel accepted the beer as he listened to Dean. "Okay Dean, I'll try it." He still looked wary as he took his first sip. He immediately made a disgusted face as it reached his taste buds. "Ugh that tastes disgusting. All I can taste is the molecules; that is not nice." Dean happened to think that the face that Cas pulled to accompany his almost inhuman noise of disgust was actually quite adorable. However, as soon as that thought came into his realisation, he blocked it out, blaming it on the alcohol.

Dean then picked up one of the litre and a half bottles of Russian vodka and dumped it on the table right in front of Castiel. Cas gently lifted up the huge bottle and began to study it before thinking, 'What the hell, I'm going to end up drinking no matter what so I may as well start now.' He opened the lid and started gulping the vodka, copying how Dean had consumed his beer. Unfortunately for Castiel, because he very rarely drank he therefore had no idea what his limit was on alcohol. Added to that the fact that his angel powers allowed him to drink much faster and cope with much more alcohol than humans, he had chugged the whole bottle of vodka down in three seconds flat, all while Dean was reaching down to get his beer and have another swag of it. As soon as he realised what the angel had just done his eyes widened considerably and he burst out laughing.

"Jesus Cas, did you just down that whole bottle?!" Dean asked, eyebrows raised high in shock.

"I just drank it how drink your alcohol. Plus I wanted to get it over with quickly." Cas replied.

"Dude, I can be a bit of an alcky sometimes and I love beer which is why I drink it so fast, and it is much weaker than vodka, you're not meant to drink 50% alcohol that quickly! Even for an angel that could be dangerous!"

"I highly doubt that Dean. Angels are much more powerful than humans and we can cope with a lot more than you. I can't feel anything anyway; it can't have had any effect on me." Cas replied nonchalantly.

Dean eyed Cas dubiously. Although Cas didn't think he felt any different, Dean was pretty certain that a whole bottle of vodka would have had at least some effect on him. He was just going to have to wait and see.

Meanwhile, Sam and Gabe had been sat at the table just drinking casually and much more sensibly than Dean and Cas. They had just been chatting and making small talk, but Gabriel was waiting for the right moment to bring up a certain subject that was bothering him. "Hey kiddo, can I ask you something?" Gabe asked almost nervously, which obviously was completely out of character for the arrogant and cocky angel.

"Sure, shoot." Sam answered, confused as to how Gabe was acting.

"Does it really not bother you?" Gabe asked almost shyly.

"Does what not bother me?" Sam still seeming confused.

"You know, what Cas blurted out earlier. About me liking you." Gabriel looked down at his feet cautiously as he waited for his answer.

Sam replied almost immediately, putting Gabriel out of his misery. "Of course not. I really don't mind. I mean, I guess I don't actually know you all that well because I haven't spent that much time with you, but you are my friend, and after everything we've been through with hell and the apocalypse, I know you've been on our side and I appreciate that. I don't see why any of that would change just because you have a crush on me. If anything it would make me like you more because you don't just see me as an average hunter."

Gabriel looked shocked. "Wow, I never thought of it like that."

Sam just smiled at his friend. "Well I can be more open minded than you think." Sam spoke with an unusually confident wink. He stood up to get some food from the kitchen, leaving a very stunned Gabriel staring at Sam's retreating form.

Dean and Castiel had been completely oblivious to their brothers on the other side of the room. They had been too absorbed in themselves to notice the other two. After Dean's fourth beer he was beginning to feel more and more tipsy and he was definitely starting to lose his inhibitions.

"Cas, dude, I'm gonna go see what games and shit there is, 'cause I saw some pretty awesome stuff earlier." As Dean got up to walk across the room, he got as far as standing up before ending up stumbling, misjudging how drunk he actually was. Anticipating what was going to happen, Castiel stood up quickly and tried to catch Dean before he fell. However, although it was unnoticed by both men, Cas was actually also tipsy, maybe even more so – he was bordering on blind drunk. So it was no surprise that as soon as he reached out his arms to save Dean, he ended up flat on his back with a very confused Dean on top of him after dragging him down with him.

Cas lay there for half a second unsure of what to do, until he heard a loud burst of laughter erupting from Dean's mouth. Dean was laughing so hard that he was wriggling heavily on top of the angel. Castiel just squirmed underneath the weight and was about to ask what was so funny until he realised that he too actually found this peculiar situation rather amusing. He assumed it was just the alcohol kicking in as he had no idea why this was actually funny, but he felt happy and Dean seemed to be enjoying himself as well, so he just gave in to the laughter and let himself relax. That was until both grown men seemed to suddenly realise the exact position they were in and their laughter started to gradually die down.

They both knew they were drunk as hell, well Castiel was anyway, Dean had a better understanding of what was going on. There was one thing that Dean really wanted to do and with the excuse of being drunk and the possibility of Cas not remembering in the morning, he realised he had the perfect opportunity and he was going to go for it. At the same time, Cas could feel the heat of all of Dean pressed against him, and as he looked up all he could focus his eyes on was the emerald green colour of his friend's eyes. He stared deeply into those beautiful depths as Dean gazed equally into Cas' eyes. Dean had mentally told himself he was going to go for what he had yearned after for so long, and with his inhibitions almost completely gone, he decided this was the perfect time. As they gazed into each other's eyes, Dean lowered his face closer and closer towards Cas', his eyes darting from Cas' eyes to his lips and back again. He could tell Cas wanted this too, and that he knew what was about to happen because he could feel Cas lifting his torso and neck up slightly trying to close the gap between them as well. Dean could feel butterflies in his stomach (very rare for him but yes, it did happen on occasion) and his heart was pounding with excitement. He could feel Cas' racing heart beneath him as well. They both wanted this so much and they felt like there was nothing in the rest of existence that would stop them as they drew closer to close the minute gap between them.

However, Sam chose just that moment to come staggering in the room yelling something at Gabriel, completely unaware of his brother and the angel lying on the floor. He was so oblivious to that fact, that he tripped right over them causing Dean and Cas to separate as they were kicked over in different directions, leaving Sam looking slightly embarrassed and on the floor in the middle of the room.

Castiel looked confused again, and partially disappointed. Gabriel had started roaring with laughter. And Dean, well Dean just looked pissed.

"Thanks a lot Sam. You and your clumsy moose legs. You sure know how to ruin a moment don't you?" Dean glared at his brother, calling him a bitch, shortly followed by Sam's usual response of 'jerk'.

A/N So I've just re-read the end of this chapter and I think it sounds a bit like an ending to the whole story in a way (well it kind of does to me, don't know about you though) so I'm just confirming that there will be more, I don't know how much more - that really depends on the reviews tbh so if you want more or have any suggestions of anything you want in here then review and let me know!
