Hello again. I would like to thank Mummabro for the review.

I'm thinking that I really should have something better to do on a Friday night than write, but I don't so have another chapter. Enjoy my little lovelies.

Disclaimer: still really not mine.


The following Saturday found Dean and Castiel going round the houses that they had decided they liked the look of. At lunch time Castiel bounded through the door of The Bakery looking very much to Gabriel like an excited puppy. Following him and holding his hand like it was his lead was Dean.

"So take it the house hunting went well." He said smiling at his little brother.

"Yes. We've found the perfect place." Castiel said getting even more animated, looking over at Dean Gabriel saw he was watching Castiel as if he was the most precious piece of treasure ever found. He just shook his head. Could these two get any sappier? (Probably if I try really, really hard.)

"What's it like?" he asked his brother, he couldn't stop smiling at him. It seemed to be infectious.

"It has a library Gabriel. Floor to ceiling bookcases." Castiel replied his eyes going wide and becoming even more excited, if that was at all possible.

"Anything else? Cos you know there's a public one of them up the road right?" Gabriel asked cheekily.

"It also has three bedrooms and a big garden." Castiel replied with a wave of his hand as if those things weren't really that important.

"Sounds good. I'm, happy for you Cassie." Gabriel said sincerely, making his way round the counter and pulling his brother into a rare hug. Nodding at Dean over Castiel's shoulder. He really was happy for them both. (See now your being sappy Gabriel. It's good for you.)

"Thank you Gabriel." Castiel replied softly returning the hug. He really did love his brother. Most of the time.

"Now then. Pie?" Gabriel asked as he pulled away from Castiel and raised his eyes brows at him then Dean who was nodding his head like one of those dogs some people have in their cars. (What a lot of canine references today. Oh well.)

"Hell yeah." Dean finally said.


Once Dean and Castiel had left. Still going on about their new house, now discussing redecorating and what furniture they would need, Gabriel was once again left alone. And that little voice that had been asking that question in the deep recesses of him mind made its way to the front. So what now? What was he going to do now? Cassie was happy. What was Gabriel going to do now he didn't have his brother to annoy? Before he could delve too far into those questions the door of The Bakery opened once again but this time it was to let in Charlie.

"Do I need to go on high alert?" Gabriel asked as she walked up to the counter.

"No. I just wanted to say well done on your match-making of Annie and Bart." Charlie replied with a sweet smile on her face and sickly innocence in her voice.

"Okay. What's her name?" Gabriel asked crossing his arms and trying really hard to keep the smile from his face.

"Whose name?" Charlie asked with an innocent voice making her eyes go wide.

"Whoever it is you have decided to try and fix me up with this time?" Gabriel asked rolling his eyes at her. Her innocent voice was almost as bad as his. (No, nothing could be that bad Gabriel.)

"What makes you think I am trying anything of the sort?" Charlie asked with fake indignation at his suggestion which made Gabriel chuckle.

"Really?" He asked with the raise of one eyebrow at her until she cracked. Which took about 5.7 seconds.

"Fine. I'm not trying to fix you up. I need a favour." Charlie said resting her head on the top of his counter.

"What kind?" Gabriel asked resting his head opposite hers so they were looking each other in the eye.

"Well I'm having one of my socials and I'm a man short." Charlie explained giving him her best puppy dog eyes.

"So it's not one woman but a room full of them." Gabriel said with a smirk.

"No, I just need even numbers." Charlie explained with a smile.

Gabriel was about to say hell no when something stopped him. It was that damn little voice. Telling him it was time to move on. Time to find something for himself in his life. God how he hated that little voice right now. What was wrong with his life? He liked it. You're just scared, the little voice argued. Scared of what? I'm not scared of anything. Gabriel argued back. (And yes he is well aware he is arguing with himself, but don't we all?) Prove it, the little voice responded making him sigh and stand up straight.

"Okay fine. I'll come. When and where?" He finally replied making Charlie's smile grow bigger and stand up as well. That had been easier than she thought it would be.

"Tonight at the theatre." She replied instantly.

"The theatre?" Gabriel asked wondering just what the hell he had gotten himself into here. (Too late to worry about that now. might as well just sit back and enjoy.)

"Yes. Don't worry you'll love it." Charlie replied with a smirk at Gabriel.

"You know that sentence just made me ten times more worried right?" He asked shaking his head at her.

"I know. Great isn't it." Charlie replied cheekily.

"Get out of here you. Before I change my mind." Gabriel responded shooing her out the door.

"No going back now Gabriel. I know where you live. I'll track you down." And with that and a wave Charlie left Gabriel standing there, wondering what had just gotten into him. Why had he agreed to do this? What was going on with his brain now? (Umm, if you want my advice I would say you might be lonely? No? Okay, that's fine Gabriel, just fine.)
