A/N: Filler pretty much as there is little Plot in the Chapter.

Might include a Filler later on of just Sam and Gabriel because I haven't drawn much attention to that pairing in anything I have written.

Another shorter Chapter this time again.

I wanted to bring up shooting here Michael because attention will be brought up to the situation again later on.


It reached the middle of the day, they had returned to Bobby's with the need for another distraction. Gabriel happily watched Sam with his nose in a book, Bobby was skimming through newspapers for Hunts while Dean was helping Cas walk around the salvage yard.

"Can I ask something?" Dean opened with as he and Cas made their way around the huge backyard.

"Yes. You can always ask my things, Dean"

"Gabriel can shape-shift underwater into his original form," Dean started

Castiel nodded, his focus on whatever was straight ahead he leaned on Dean but he wasn't solely dependent anymore using the scrap cars as a counter-measure

"Can you change back?"

"I don't know, My lower half was in the water and nothing happened but I was focussed on Michael and Gabriel fighting, I believe the water wasn't deep enough to change me, Gabriel has had practice. I've only been on land for four days"

"OK. Do you want to change back?"

Castiel swayed in order to think about it "I don't know, if I truly had to then I may consider it but I meant what I said before Dean, I am enjoying my time here on land, experiencing this has been a pleasure"

Dean smirked "No chick-flick moments, Cas"

"What's a chick-flick moment?"

Cas innocence and naivety made Dean burst out laughing. The Winchester had to take deep breaths to comfort a distraught looking Castiel "No, no I'm not laughing at you Cas, promise. I just..." Dean snickered again "I just thought I'd never need to explain

what those are"

"What are they?" Cas couldn't help but smile with Dean

"They are movies created specifically for chicks or have a lot of heavy sappiness to them, tons of touchy-feely crap that male or female Hunters don't go by" Dean couldn't seem to stress the word 'Don't' enough.

"I think I understand"

"Great"

"Are all the good moments between us a chick-flicker moment"

"Flick" Dean quickly corrected "and no. No, they weren't moments"

"Oh"

Awkward silence entered except the gravel shifting beneath their feet

"I don't think you'll need much more help with this" Dean had taken a small side step giving Cas some space but still keeping a hold of him.

"Possibly, Humans are capable of moving faster"

"Like jogging, running, cycling, driving" Dean encouraged.

"Yes"

"Keeps goals in mind, Cas. You're still unsteady like this but you're getting there"

Minutes passed by as the pair made their way around Bobby's business.

"Dean, may I ask you something?"

"Sure"

"Would you ever want to become something other than Human?"

"I have been, several times and it's not a position Hunters should find themselves in"

"Why?"

"Because then they get dead"

Cas stopped, his face pale. Dean wasn't sure what Cas was going to do or say next, he couldn't tell if Cas was going to cry, scream, punch him, he was unreadable

"When I was washed up against that tree on the grass bank, were you going to kill me?"

Shining perfect blue eyes were hard to turn away from "I..."

"Dean, tell me the truth"

Dean wished he could be anyway be under Cas' glare, he didn't want to break the trust built between them, sighing through his nose Dean nodded "Sam and I are Hunters, Cas. It's second nature to get rid of Supernatural creatures"

Cas slipped away from Dean, deciding to lean against a broken and rusted car, too far to be recognised by the best professionals "Then why did you spare me?"

"You were dying, I thought that their was no point but you grabbed on to my shoulder like a lifeline, you were scared and I didn't want to hurt you. You're not the first we've let go and don't worry, we're not going to hurt you or Gabriel. We did see that look on both your faces, you were frightened of us"

"That's true. We know Hunters kill our kind, not just Mer-creatures but all Supernatural beings. Seeing you shoot Michael refreshed our minds about that, I was surprised we all sat together afterwards as if nothing had happened but you made it clear the topic was not up for discussion with the obvious distraction for food"

Guilt wavered it's hand in, "You saw through that?" Dean asked

"Everyone did but no-one bothered to say anything" Cas spat out

"Do you still trust me, Bobby and Sam?"

"Not as much as I did but you have shown me no reason slip any further" Cas was still clearly holding a grudge, Dean decided not to poke the aggravated aquatic bear any further

"OK, we should head inside, no doubt Bobby's found something for us to do"

Cas' response was his head shooting over towards Bobby's house "You are right, he's awaiting our return"

"You have super hearing?" Dean's eyes bulged out

"No, Gabriel and I share and maintain a telepathic link, we call it an Angel Radio"

"Onwards then"

Cas attempted to push off the car however his balance was lost after keeping still for so long, Dean caught him with ease

"I gotcha"

Cas didn't respond, his only lay on hoping that his progress would increase further. He hated depending on people as much as he had done in recent days.

"I know you do" Cas muttered before they entered the house
