Hiya. Only me (again). I would like to thank Mummabro and Hllo-Beastie for the awesome reviews. I love you guys.
Anyway enough from me, on with la story.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but my crazy mind.
Later that same day Castiel made his way over to The Bakery to see his brother. By that time he had forgotten all about the woman. Though he knew he would be mentioning the car to Dean this evening. If nothing else but to see his reaction to it.
"Hey Cassie what ups?" Gabriel asked cheerfully to his brother. He was feeling decidedly upbeat.
"Well I was wondering if you wished to come out for a drink this evening?" Castiel asked avoiding small talk. This was him and Gabriel after all.
"Oh why?" Gabriel asked intrigued about what his brother wanted to discuss with him. Or was he trying to set him up? He was getting fed up with this match-making crap they all kept throwing at him.
"Well Charlie may have mentioned to me something about a woman named Pamela?" Castiel said hoping he got the name right. (You have.)
"Yeah what about her?" Gabriel asked. Though he thought he knew. At least Cassie wasn't going to throw a woman at him, just try and quiz him about one instead. Which he had to confess would be hilarious to see. (Behave Gabriel.)
"That she saw the two of you leave her 'thing' together." Castiel replied, hoping Gabriel didn't mind him getting involved in his love life. Though considering he had spent the last decade trying to make Castiel have one he felt no real qualms about it. (Understandable.)
"Maybe we did. What's it to you?" Gabriel asked with a smirk and crossing his arms. He could play cagey very well.
"Gabriel you have spent the last 10 years nosing your way into my love life, I feel that allows me to now do the same." Castiel replied crossing his arms as well making Gabriel laugh out loud. He had to confess his brother did have a point there.
"Yeah okay. Your right, I would love to have a drink with you this evening and tell you all the sordid details but I can't as you would as 'I'm busy'." He finally replied when he finished laughing.
"Doing what?" Castiel asked.
"I'm having a drink with Pamela." Gabriel replied with a shrug, making it look like he was making it look like it was no big deal even though it was. Though it really wasn't. (Well that's just confusing isn't it?)
"You have a date?" Castiel asked hopefully. It seemed his brother like this woman. (Sorry Cassie, but no. Just friends.)
"Don't sound so surprised Cassie, please. Makes me feel like I'm a monk or something." Gabriel responded with an exaggerated shiver that made Castiel roll his eyes.
"No Gabriel. The one thing I would never believe you were was a monk. I'm just glad that you and her are having a relationship, beyond the bedroom." Castiel said with a smirk at Gabriel who just gaped at him. Damn Dean had made his little bro sassy when sober. He might have to congratulate the man next time he saw him. Maybe he would give him an extra piece of pie as reward.
"Yeah okay." Was all he could think to reply to that.
"I would like to meet her." Castiel said, already planning on a double date with his brother and Pamela and him and Dean.
"Cassie, we haven't even had our first official date and already you want me to bring her to meet the family?" Gabriel asked sarcastically. Really what was his brother thinking? (He just wants you to be happy Gabriel.)
"Fine. Have a nice time this evening Gabriel." Castiel conceded. Gabriel did have a point.
"Don't worry, I will." Was Gabriel's reply with a wink and a knowing smirk.
With that Castiel left with a happy smile on his face. His brother was going on a date. And that was in his opinion the first step along the relationship road. He just hoped Gabriel and Pamela worked out.
Gabriel watched Cas leave with little compunction for lying to him. Though technically he hadn't lied. He was going out with Pamela this evening. It just wasn't a date. They were just two friends going for a drink. But if it got those three off his back to think they were dating then he would take it. (Gabriel how mean.)
Once Kali had left the estate agents she drove back to her hotel. Leaving her car in the parking lot she decided to go for a walk. Not really knowing where she was going she meandered along and finally let all the thoughts in her head run free. Gabriel was here, right now, in this town. She even knew where she could find him if she so wished too. Though she didn't. She didn't believe she could pull of surprised recognition if she went into The Bakery to find him. And what was with that name? What had happened to Heavens Delights? She had loved that name for a dessert company, so why had Gabriel not used it? She had used the name from her dream for her business. So why hadn't he? What had happened that made him change his dream so much? What was it that made him leave? (You know, you really need to be asking him all this right?)
These thoughts went round and round in her head until she finally stopped walking to find herself back at the hotel. Looking at her watch she saw that it would soon be time to meet with the owner of the apartment she was planning on renting. With that thought in mind she went up to her room to change. No need for a business suit for this meeting. (Very true. Dean would probably die of shock if you turned up in one.)
