Dean looked down at the message on his phone. It was from John. He was asking if he could bring Alex to meet them.

 Assuming Alex was the new guy's name, he responded with yes. He quickly added, "The whole gang is here" to the end.

 Well, it was almost the whole gang. Cas was somewhere with Gabe, Jo was working her shift at the Roadhouse, and Charlie was no doubt with her. He looked up and was about to let his friends know John would be joining them, when the group overheard an intriguing conversation:

"I don't know man, why are you asking me?" One boy said.

"Because I don't have any other friends I could ask!" The other boy argued. "I need to get it for Naomi!"

"I knew it! There's no way you were getting it for you. You're getting it for her. Justin listen, you have got to say no to this! I don't trust her and you shouldn't either! I have a feeling she'll get you to do something you can't come back from." 

Justin stood up angrily and walked straight into the person standing behind him. He looked at the tall man - he had dark hair, and wore mostly magenta clothing.

 "So... I hear you're looking for a little something-something for a certain someone - some girl - if I've heard correctly."

He nodded slowly.

"Meet me round the back of the art block. 4:15. I'll get you the stuff." He turned and left dramatically.

Not long after, Justin went to leave too. As he walked past their table, Angelica grabbed his arm.

 "I wanna give you a word of warning: don't get involved with Jefferson - or his boyfriend Crowley -"

"Wait, they're together now?" Asked Aaron.

"Yeah, since last week." Peggy replied.

"Damn!" Mused Hercules.

"Called it." Said Dean, sipping his coffee and smirking. Angelica turned back to the boy in her grasp.

"Being around people like that is too risky, trust me. You got any family you could talk to? That you trust?"

"I could call my cousin."

"That's your safest option. But you should really walk away. Stop now. You won't like where this road leads." She looked him dead in the eye, hoping he'd listen to her advice. She let go of his arm, and he left.

"I think John should be here soon." Dean mentioned. 

Peggy's phone began to ring. Judging by how quickly she disappeared to answer it, and how much she was blushing, it was Gabriel.

 "There is definitely something going on with Gabe and your sister." Hercules commented.

"There is certainly some tension that's easy to see. Has she said anything to you Lizzie? It seems Peggy's closer to you."

Eliza shook her head.

Up until this point, Burr had been deep in thought, but he finally said what he was thinking.

 "Hey, Angie. When you told that kid 'getting involved with people like that is too risky' and 'you won't like where this road leads' why did you say 'trust me'?"

Angelica looked uncomfortable. "What do you mean?"

"Adding the 'trust me', and the way you said it, makes it sound like it's from a personal perspective."

"Well it's not!" She responded, suspiciously defensive. "I only added that so he'd listen to my warning! I didn't want an innocent kid to go through that - no one should!"

"But how do you know so much about that?"

"I-" She couldn't finish her sentence. She was tense, breathing heavily. Hiding the truth.

"Angie, is there something you're not telling me?" Eliza spoke up, concerned for her sister.

"What? N-no!"

Hercules chimed in, trying to help. "Well, you would have noticed if something was going on, right? You're with her all the time." 

There was a pause. Eliza looked up, worried, at her now standing sister.

"Not all the time."

"Well no, not all the time, but you get what I mean, right?"

"No. The missing year. Did something happen during that time?"

"The what?" Everyone asked.

"A couple years back, Angie disappeared for almost a year. She still hasn't told me what happened, but it changed her."

Angelica stormed out, knocking shoulders with John on her way out. Tears welling in her eyes, Eliza ran out after her.

When he and Alex reached the table, John asked, "What the hell happened?"

"You don't want to know, et je pense que it's best we stay out of it." Lafayette said.

"This is Alexander Hamilton, he's the new student, my roommate... and my friend?" Alex nodded, and smiled at him. This caused John to blush bright red.

"I'm Dean Winchester."

"Lafayette."

"Hercules Mulligan."

"Aaron Burr."

John pointed over to the corner or the room, "That's Peggy Schuyler, and her sisters Angelica and Eliza left when we arrived."

"Hello Dean." A deep voice said from behind him.

"Dammit Cas, you have got to stop doing that. How'd you even get there so fast? How's your brother?"

 He sat down next to Dean.

"He's fine, he wanted to talk about Peggy, then some family issues."

"What'd Luci do now?"

"It was Michael this time."

"Damn, tell me about it later. Meet Alexander." 

He leaned close to Cas and whispered so only he could hear. "Bet you 5 bucks those two will be on their first date by Thursday."

"But it's already Tuesday."

"I know." 

Cas shook his hand, and they turned back to everyone else, still sat very close.

"Sorry guys, we gotta go." Hercules, Aaron, and Lafayette said goodbye and left. Now it was just the four of them.

"So, Dean, how did you and Cas meet?" Alex asked them.

"Well, about a year ago, I was in a really dark place - it was like Hell. But then Cas managed to pull me out. I don't know what I would have done without him. He's like an angel or something. He' my angel."

 Cas kissed him and, when they pulled apart, began to get to know Alex.
