Hello again, again, again, you get the gist. I would like to thank nerdchick394 for the review. And I hope that this chapter makes you all feel a little better. I wanted to get this up before Saturday cos I'm going away for the weekend and probably won't be able to post anything and I didn't want to come home to a house full of hex bags so here you go.

Gabriel was at his bakery when he got a call Monday morning from Charlie. Castiel was supposed to open up the store but it was still closed. Frowning he quickly left Kevin in charge and went round to his brother's apartment to make sure he was okay. When he got there he got no response from inside but he could swear he heard some sort of noise. With that thought he pulled out the bobby pins that he had in his pocket that he most defiantly did not wear to keep his hair out of his eyes while he was baking and using them to pick the lock. It didn't take him long. It seemed that lock picking was like riding a bike. You never forget. But that didn't matter right now. His brother did.

Moving quickly through the apartment he finally found Castiel lying on his bed staring at nothing fully dressed.

"Hey Cassie. You know you're supposed to be downstairs right now right?" Gabriel said to him, trying to make him smile.

"I don't care." Came Castiel response in a voice that sounder a lot rougher than it normally did. Taking a closer a look Gabriel noticed that Castiel's eyes where rimmed red from, by the looks of it, crying.

"What happened Cassie?" Gabriel asked in a gentle voice sitting himself down next to his brother.

"I don't want to talk about it." Castiel replied rolling over so his back was facing Gabriel.

"Okay. So should I call Dean and ask him?" Gabriel asked taking a stab in the dark that the only person who could hurt his brother this bad would be his boyfriend.

"Do what you like I don't care." Castiel grumbled at him causing Gabriel to frown. Castiel would normally have a fit if he suggested he phone Dean and ask him anything. Why was his brother now so happy to let him do it? Dean must have done something really bad to upset his brother like this. At that thought his eyes narrowed but he kept his voice light as he replied to Castiel's grumble.

"So does that including slashing his tires for making you cry?"

"I don't think my upset is worth you getting arrested for damaging police property." Castiel replied through a sniff. Gabriel wasn't so sure he agreed with that statement but he made sure to keep his responses light. He was after all the fun loving brother.

"Oh I don't know. I've been arrested for less." He replied and when Castiel turned and looked at him with a glare he just shrugged. "What? It true."

"Dean and I broke up." Castiel finally said staring at his ceiling.

"Why?" Gabriel asked gently. Dean and Cas where perfect together. He couldn't understand what would make them split.

"Remember me saying I had never met any of Dean's friend properly?" at that Gabriel nodded, cos he remembered. He had thought it was a bit odd. "Well it seems that is because none of them are aware that Dean is bisexual."

"Crap. Sorry Cassie." Gabriel said putting his hand on his brother's shoulder and giving it a squeeze. He knew what Castiel had been through coming out. He'd been there. And he knew that the one thing he couldn't stand was people not being true to themselves.

"I refused to be his secret. It's my fault I am feeling like this. I'm the one who ended it." Castiel replied mournfully making Gabriel roll his eyes.

"Yeah but you did it cos he was a dick." He said in response making Castiel glare at him once more.

"No. An idiot yes but not a dick Gabriel." Castiel said in a frosty voice.

"Okay, no slagging off your ex got it." Gabriel said putting his hands up as if in surrender. "So what you going to do now?"

"I don't know." Castiel replied staring back up at the ceiling.

"Well the way I look at it you have two options. You wallow in self-pity or you go out and get on with your life." Gabriel suggested hoping he could pull his brother out of this hurt.

"I think I'll take the first please." Was Castiel's response not looking away from the ceiling.

"Not really what I was getting at Cassie." Gabriel said with an exasperated sigh.

"Just for today?" Castiel asked turning his puppy dog eyes on his big brother knowing that it was the one look that Gabriel couldn't refuse.

Gabriel narrowed his eyes at his brother before he replied. "Fine just for today. But tomorrow back to work."

"Thank you Gabriel." Castiel smiled up at him before he remembered why it was he wanted the day off.

"Yeah, yeah. It's what the best brothers do." At that Gabriel got up off of Castiel's bed and pulled out his phone to arrange cover for Castiel in the store and then went into the kitchen and started baking. If Castiel was going wallow he was going to do it with decent cakes and sweets.

Dean thought over Bobby's words as he drove himself home. He thought over the words as he had a shower and he thought over them as he got dressed. He then sat down at his table thinking some more. Bobby said to find a way of getting Cas back. He had said that Cas loved him. He had said that Dean was oblivious. And thinking about things he realised that Bobby was probably right about some of it. The question was he right about Cas' feelings for him? The only way Dean could think of to find out was to tell Cas how he felt. But that still didn't solve the whole no one knowing thing. It was then the solution hit him. If he had the courage to do it. But it was for Cas. If it got him Cas back then he would do anything, even this. But for it to work he was going to need help. With that he pulled out his phone to make a call to the only person he could think of that could help him and didn't hopefully want to kill him.

Gabriel had called Charlie in to cover Castiel at the store so she was behind the counter when her phone rang. Looking at the caller ID she wondered what Dean wanted with her.

"What's up bitch?" She asked down the phone.

"Charlie I need your help." Dean said jumping the whole small talk and greeting stuff. This was serious.

"Okay doing what?" Charlie asked, wondering if it was a surprise for Castiel or something.

"I need to get Cas back." Dean said taking a deep breath and plunging right in.

"What do you mean back? How did you lose him?" Charlie demanded. What the hell had happened between them that she had missed?

"I was an idiot." Dean replied truthfully.

"Well obviously but really need so specifics." Charlie said cross that dean had obviously screwed up somehow.

"Fine." And with that Dean told her all that had happened between him and Cas the previous day and how he was hoping to make it all better, and how he needed her assistance.

"So will you help?" dean asked when he finally reached the end of his long and rather convoluted tale.

"I'll help-" Charlie started only for Dean to interrupt.

"Thanks Ch-" he said in relief, which was short lived when Charlie started talking over him.

"If I am sure he wants you back." She finished.

"Okay that's fair. Hope to see you tomorrow night." And with Dean hung up and took a deep breath. He couldn't believe what he was planning to do. But for Cas he would do it. For Cas.

(Oh Dean-o what is your big plan? It had better be good to get Castiel back me thinks.)
