I sit with a huff "look Dean Sam is right, we don't know anything for sure so you shouldn't worry." I say "real easy for you to say," he snaps "hey now," I say looking over at him "sorry, it's just you really don't. We've been through alot and he may be an angel but I still worry about the guy." he says before sitting across from me "I get it, I worry about Gabe too even though I shouldn't, anyway I'm sure he's fine." I say "ya sure whatever you say." he scoffs "if it makes you feel any better we can go walk around maybe see if we can run into him," I suggest. Dean gives me a confused look "I know he's an angel but you never know, I'm just throwing out ideas here." I say with a sigh "I know but Sam is right we should stay incase Gabriel brings him back." he says before moving to grab a beer. "ya you're right," I mutter before moving my eyes down to the bruises on my arms, if it hadn't been for Gabriel I don't know what I would've done. I run a finger over them thinking of the feeling I had when I hugged Gabriel, I don't know what I'd do if he wasn't in my life anymore. "so you want something to clean those up?" Dean asks breaking me from thought, I look down at the bottle he placed in front of me "No I'll be fine thanks." I say grabbing the bottle "don't be stupid it'll get infected." he says after taking a drink then walks to the bathroom. Dean comes back and sits across from me grabbing my hand he places it on his knee before sitting down the emergency medical kit in his other hand. He spends a moment cleaning and wrapping the burn marks before he looks up at me "look I don't mean to treat you like a kid but" he says before I hold up a hand "don't worry about ok, I appreciate it. It shows you care so thank you." I say with a smile. He squeezes my hand softly "I really do care. I know how it is to be on your own and sometimes we need someone to look out for us. I just want to be that person for you." he says looking me in the eye. Ok just breath he's being a big brother that's all "thanks, I'm glad you feel that way I could use a big brother." I say holding my smile "ya," he laughs shaking his head before letting go of my hand "well I think I'll call Sam, you should try your bestie." he laughs as he puts the phone up to his ear. Dean walks off across the room as he talks on the phone, I decide to take Dean's advice and pray to Gabriel in hopes he found Castiel.
A few minutes pass when Sam walks in the door "hey any luck with Gabriel?" Sam asks looking down at me "nope not yet." I say trying to not sound worried "so what do we do?" Dean asks with his head in his hands "wait. That's all we can do." Sam says with a sigh. A minute turns into an hour before we are all taken off guard by Gabriel standing with Castiel slumped over his shoulder "poor little guy is all tuckered out." Gabriel smiles sitting him beside Dean "what happened?" I ask as I quickly cup Castiel's chin in my hands "the demons," Castiel mutters "shh," I say softly "I should've guessed. Gabriel can you help him?" I ask looking up at him "what I'm the search & rescue and the medic?" he asks sarcastically "please." I say as I gently pat some blood from Castiel's lip "fine." Gabriel sighs as he places a hand on Castiel "there happy now he's all better." Gabriel says "thank you Gabe, you're the best." I smile looking at Castiel's healed face "thank you brother." Castiel says glancing up at him "don't mention it and don't say I've never done nothing for you." Gabriel says as he sits beside me "So what happened exactly?" Dean asks sitting back in his chair "well I was ambushed," Castiel says "you aren't very subtle kinda like the two others here." Gabriel laughs "it isn't funny." I say with a frown as I slap Gabriel's knee "oh ouch that hurt so much." Gabriel says sarcastically before crossing his arms "shut it would ya." I sigh before looking back at Castiel "so why would they ambush you?" I ask "I don't know, they didn't say much." Castiel says just staring down at his hands "well I'm sorry this happened to you." I say softly feeling a little guilty "it's not your fault," Castiel says before standing "I should go try to find them Andras couldn't have gotten far." he adds looking between us "well we'll start looking for something that could help." Sam says as he opens his computer "just be careful." Dean says looking over at him "I will." Castiel says before disappearing. I let out a sigh "are you sure he'll be ok?" I ask looking up at Dean "ya he's a strong son of a bitch." he smiles before looking over at Gabriel "what about you?" he asks narrowing his eyes at him "I figured I'd stick around and bless you all further with my presence." he smiles Dean rolls his eyes "is that the only reason?" Dean asks looking between me and Gabriel "ya why?" Gabriel says narrowing his eyes at Dean "No reason," Dean says still looking at both if us "well better hit the books" he adds before sitting back across from me. I look between Dean and Gabriel a moment as Dean opens a book and Gabriel stares at him before realizing my curiosity "what?" Gabriel says with a smile "nothing, I guess." I say before grabbing a book of my own. Freaking weirdos but why do I feel like I'm missing something here.
