Months after making up with the guys and accepting my new identity, all the training had paid off. Gabriel and Castiel were satisfied, believing I was now fully tapped into my grace, its powers, and knowledge of how to use it when needed. I learned to call on it at any given moment.

I had spoken to Bobby a few times just to touch base and let him know that we were alive and well. He'd fill me in on his hunts and how Jody was now hunting with him. It seemed Bobby was getting pretty serious about her; I was happy for him. It's been a long time since any of us seen Bobby happy, genuinely happy.

Castiel and I still hadn't consummated our relationship but I accepted why he wanted to wait. I understood it was a huge step for him, not only emotionally, but also spiritually. It made me adore him even more with how he wanted everything with us to be perfect, to be special. Although, he did begin showing affection towards me. He cuddled with me more often, held me while we slept, and even little touches here and there in passing. Every touch, accidental or not, made me feel exquisite. His embrace was the best feeling I had ever known, and I knew that once we did take that step, it would be all the more special with how long and why we've waited.

I'm sure it was beginning to become obvious, not only sexual energy but also tension between the two of us. I know he felt it; there were a few times he had to roll over in bed or break a kiss because things were getting pretty intense. A part of me wanted him to just give in but another part of me also wanted to see where this would lead us.

I was never on the end of a caring man like Castiel. The few relationships I had in the past were forgettable; there isn't one ex that I would want to try things with again, not even the one who broke my heart so badly it was the last man I ever cared for, until Cas. What broke my heart wasn't that he cheated on me; it was just that we simply grew apart. We both cared deeply for one another. A young kind of love but I still felt as if he and I would be together for a long time. He wanted to move in together. I told him I wasn't ready even though I wanted to. I didn't because I knew my brothers wouldn't approve. It was shortly after that he broke things off with me, telling me we were on two different levels of the relationship and he didn't want to force me into anything I wasn't ready for. Sadly, I never told him that I wanted what he had wanted back then.

With Cas, things were different. I felt content and safe. After my first breakdown in Gabriel's room where I explained I felt that I wasn't enough for him, he and I talked. He explained a few reasons why he wanted to wait and ever since then I've been ok with it, just highly frustrated at times. What matters is the fear of losing him is no longer there.

"Hey, Earth to Angie."

My daydreaming was interrupted by an extremely annoying angel brother.

"What is it this time, Gabe? Can't you see I'm trying to enjoy the weather?"

I was stretched out on the porch swing, swinging in the wind as the birds chirped and the sun-kissed my skin.

"Yeah, move over." He said pushing my legs off of the seat.

I rolled my eyes while sitting up.

"We have a problem." He said sitting down making the swing rock violently.

I put my feet out to steady the swing while giving him a dirty look.

"What's the problem?"

"Big bro is in town and word is, he's looking for Castiel."

This information snapped my attention into focus.

"What does he want with Cas?"

"My guess is he's looking for you and knows Castiel is the way to find you. So, what we need you to do is lay low. Very low. No shopping, driving, or anything outside of the shield we've got around the perimeter."
