Two angels were sitting opposite each other at a table with two cups of tea

One had white hair that was just as pure as snow, while the other had hair as black as a raven, and together they sat under a canopy just outside a small café in Paris

Peppermint tea was on the side that the white-haired angel was seated at, and the ginger tea was sitting in front of the black-haired, while a gentle tune played out in the shop that they both could barely hear over the soft chatter of the people around them

"It's such a pleasant day, don't you think, Castiel?" the white-haired angel said in a soft tone of voice to the angel that sat opposite of him, "Indeed it is, Aziraphale, very lovely." the now identified Castiel responds in a formal tone

"Well, I'm glad you agree with me, Castiel." Aziraphale said with gratitude, while a soft smile made its way onto said angel's face, "Of course, you are a great friend of mine, so I have no obligation to lie to you in any way." A slight chuckle came from Aziraphale after Castiel had finished talking, he stared at the other angel with little confusion as to why he was laughing, "I'm sorry, did I say something funny?" he confusingly said, "No, no, I'm sorry for laughing, I shouldn't have," Aziraphale apologized to the now puzzled angel, "you just reminded me of a good friend of mine, terribly sorry."

A smile was still present on Aziraphale and Castiel's face as they both continued to talk. After a tiny bit of talking with Aziraphale, Castiel made his way to grab his tea that had sat neglected on the table for quite a bit, but when he did, he made a face of slight annoyance, as he could tell that the tea had gone cold

Aziraphale, while still talking, could tell that Castiel was annoyed, just by the way that his eyebrows knitted together and that he was staring intently at his cold cup of tea, so with a slight flick of his wrist, both of their cups of tea were now at an appropriate temperature so that they won't burn themselves with the heat, and that it wasn't cold enough that it didn't taste weird

"That should do it." He said with a gentle smile on his face after all was said and done with, before grabbing his cup of tea and taking a small sip of it while also doing what he always did when he ate or drank something that wasn't an alcoholic drink, which was savour the taste of it

Before going back to talking to Castiel about what he did, and vice versa on Castiel's end of the conversion that they were having just before

Before long, the sky had begun to fall, and slowly it turned into a beautiful array of pinks, reds, and oranges that danced around each other, with a few clouds that had decided to join in the mix of the sky

When one of the angels noticed they had realized that their time together was coming to a close, and so they notified the other of the time, which saddened the other, but alas you can't defeat time, no matter how much one might, and so they said their goodbyes and off they went, to their respected places in their separate universes, where they will face whatever challenges, they had to face there, until they could see each other once again because nothing could ever go wrong in seeing a friend once every few months when they weren't busy with stuff happening in their universes
