A Fist Full of Feathers

Chapter 13

I wake up late in the day with a yawn. I stretch as much as I can with Alex wrapped around me like a koala. I smile and sink down into the bed more. I'm content to lay there forever, but unfortunately we have work to do. Alex wakes soon after and we get up. We got the room with the kitchen, so I zap some eggs and bread and start to cook. I make enough for the ten of us and set all the food on plates on the table. I grab some clothes, a pair of black jeans, and one of Alex's sweaters, which is seventeen million sizes too big. Alex is wearing some dark jeans and blue tee. I start to eat with Alex silently as wait for everyone to wake up. Cas wakes up next and blinks confused. "Your up early." He whispers and pads silently to where we are. I nod and Cas starts to eat. After Cas is Dean, then Sam and Gabe, the Anna, then Brit, and finally Lucifer and Michael wake up. Everyone dresses casually, but we'll all have at least one blade and one gun on us. "What are we going with this time?" I ask Dean after the table was clean. "I've kinda paired up the newbies with the pros. Alex, Anna, Gabe, and Brit are from Health and Safety." Dean says handing them their fake badges. "Rave, you, Michael, Cas, and Lucifer are F.B.I. I know how much you love that." Dean says and I fist pump wildly. "And me and Sam are from homeland security." We all nod and split into our groups to come up with stories an get used to our names. We decide to keep our first names so it would be easier on the newbies. I was Raven Wilcox. There was also Castile Wiggins, Michael Jennings, and Lucifer Millar. "We could be searching for some stolen fire arms." Michael says but is jake my head. "Not big enough. Maybe we could be looking for some explosives?" I suggest but Cas tilts his head back and fourth. "I don't know. Maybe we could be... doing a search for a possible threat to our country. It's pretty much the truth. And when you lie, it's best to use as much of the truth as possible." Cas says and I nod. "Michael? Lucifer?" I ask and they no too. "Dean! Who's heading out first?" I ask. "Health and Safety." He says and I nod. "We've got till around tomorrow." I say and lean back in the chair in sitting in. We start to play cards and eventually Dean and Sam leave to ask questions around two or something like that. "Okay. I have an idea." I say mischievously. I grab my phone and speaker which I shoved in my bag. I go on YouTube and pull up a playlist of songs I have set up. I set it down and turn the music up. The intro plays and then I start to dance. "I'm brining sexy back!" I sing and Lucifer lets out a quick "Yeah!" I smile deviously. "Them other fuckers don't know how to act!" Lucifer sings back and it my turn to say "Yeah!" Cas sighs but sing "I think it's special what's behind your back!" Then Michael blurts out "Yeah!" I grab all them by the shirts and pull them up. We all start to dance poorly and laughing at each other. We all act 'sexy' and end up grinding and twerking on the couch while laughing our heads off. When the song ends we're all laughing and rolling on the floor. "Oh my god! Lucifer! I didn't know you could dance like that!" I gasp out and burst into a fit of body wracking laughter. "Neither did I!" He says as the next song comes on. The classic ukulele comes on. I stand and pretend to play the chords along with the song. "I was scared of the dentist and the dark." Michael sings and Cas takes over. "I was scared of pretty and starting conversations." I smile and he'll Cas off the floor. "All my friends are turning green. Your the magicians assistant in the dream." I sing and we all sing "And the car won't start!" together. I start to 'slow' dance with Cas and we twirl around the room spiralling with Michael and Lucifer dining like idiots. "There's this movie that I think you'll like." I start as I spin into Michael. "This guy decides to quit his job and head to New York city." He sings back as we dance past Luci and Cas. "This Cowboys running from himself." Lucifer sings from across the room and Cas sings "And she's been living on the highest shelf!" as we switch partners and sing the chorus together. "I just wanna, I just wanna know." Michael sings and Lucifer looks at him. "If your gonna, if your gonna stay." Luci sings back and let's a small smile settle on his face. "I just gotta, I just gotta know." Michael says and spins to Luci. "I can't have it, I can't have it any other way." He whispers and presses his lips to Michaels to which me and Cas coo as the song plays in and still dance. "I love you, when your singing that song." Lucifer hums just loudly enough for us to hear. "I've got a lump in my throat in cause your gonna sing the words wrong." Michael says, just as quietly. The song ends and the pair of the just stare into each other's eyes. Alex, Anna, Balthazar and Gabriel walk in then and see us dancing, so they join in. The next song in one of my favourites. The guitar intro starts and I look into Alex's eyes and sing to him. "Silly boy, meets a nice girl, who didn't think twice ended up tongue tied, and turned it into life. Should've been nicer, could've been wiser, would've saved my Sunday's lord, if I'd only known about rainbows, lollipops, and love as they cure to a Cinderella stories work in fine. But no not mine, here we go again, I'm sending out and S.O.S. times two. Cause I've been dead, for the longest time, it makes no sense to do it all again. Can anybody knows to learn from war, I'm sending out an S.O.S. times two." I walk over to him and we start to dance gently  together. I rest my head on his shoulder and sigh happily. Everybody's kinda paired off and dancing together contently, when Sam and Dean walk in. We ignore them slightly and continue to dance. Cas lets go of Gabe and smiles brightly when he sees Dean, who smiles and drops all of his stuff to go to Cas. Dean kisses Cas and they twirls into the crowd. Gabe just kinda stand there lonely, until Sam sighs, and sweeps him into the crowd. "I missed you." I whisper to Alex and he kisses me again. "I bet I missed you more." He murmurs into my hair and I giggle. "Not even possible." I whisper as the song ends. I close my eyes and listen as a new song comes on. Everyone stops moving and starts to sing. "And I know she'll be the death of me, at least we'll both be known. And she'll always get the best of me, the worst is yet to come. But at least we'll both be beautiful and stay forever young. This I know... this I know. She told me don't worry about it. She told me don't worry no more. We both know we can't go with out it, she told me 'you'll never be alone'." Then the bass drops and we all dance stupidly and point at each other. "I can't feel my face when I'm with you! But I love it! But I love it!" I smile and point at Sam as he rubs his face. I giggle and we dance until we can barley stand. After I Can't Feel my Face, we listen, dance, and sing to around to about seven more songs, by then we all just lay on the floor looking up at the ceiling, smiling like idiots. "I haven't had that much fun in years." Dean says and we all hum in agreement. "I'm tired. That exhausting." Lucifer yawns and cuddles next to Michael who just sighs and rolls his eye in agreement. "I agree." Cas says from where he sitting cross legged on the floor, playing with the carpet. "Mhmm." Gabe says. He's sitting on the couch, bradding a slightly annoyed Sam's hair. I can't halo but laugh. "Yup." Anna says, voice mumble from where she laying face down on the floor. "Same." Brit calls, curled into a ball. "So all the angels are tired?" I ask and I simultaneous "Yup" rings out. "Then we're going to bed." I say and stand, cracking my back. I pull Alex off the floor and go change into the pjs I brought. I walk out of the bath room and everyone is already in their pjs, except Anna who's waiting for the bath room. "Oh yeah. Only girls." I say and she nods. "Girl power." I say sarcastically and she smiles as she closes the door. I crawl under the covers with Alex. "That was a good idea you had back there. Eased up at little bit of the tension." He whispers and I smile. "It only worked cause you guys participated." I whisper back and he rolls his eyes. "Classic Raven. Never being able to take credit for anything awesome she does." He says and now it's my turn to roll my eyes. I mumble a quick whatever and Alex falls asleep with a smile on his face. I can't fall asleep though. I just stare at the ceiling and think. 'That was a lot of fun. I hope that our family always stay this close nit.' I think and smile. Everyone danced with everyone, we all laugh with each other, and we all had a fantastic time. Alex is fast asleep when I carefully crawl out of bed and pad silently over to the kitchen. I zap myself a bowl of cereal so I can't be silent and sit at the table to eat. I'm getting a lot better at this whole zapping and creating thing. I'm pretty much alone in the hotel room right, so why not experiment? I focus all my energy on a straw sitting on the table in front of me. Don't even ask why a straw is there, cause I don't know either. I think about only the straw and focus on lifting it with my mind. UP! I think but nothing happens. I glare at the damn straw and it starts to shake. I jump two inches into the air and yelp in surprise. I blink a few times and look at the straw again. This time, when I try to lift it, it starts to rises shakily. I can't hold it in the air for long, only a couple of seconds, but I did it! I gasp for breath I didn't know I was hold and smile. I calm myself and try again. It lifts off the table about four feet and I can hold it a little longer, but it's still difficult. I assume I'm doing good, but I just keep trying and pushing myself until I can twirl the straw in the air with the slightest of ease. I spin it in a circle and I remember my cereal. I grab the spoon and the straw falls. "Oh, a challenge." I whisper and lift the straw with my mind again. I try my hardest to keep the straw in the air while I do something else, but it's harder then I perviously expected. I work really hard until early in the morning. By the time three am rolls around, I can eat cereal with one hand, shake the other, and lift the straw using my mind. I'm starting to get a killer head ache from all of the focussing, but I keep practicing and refining. I grimace as the dull pounding pain spreads and I can't focus anymore. I put down the straw and lean back with a stupid grin on my face. "I can do all that with my mind." I whisper and stare at the spoon. A sudden wave of tiredness hits me, I guess the night caught up with me I think and close my eyes for just five minutes, but when I open them again, it six forty-five in the morning. I wipe the sleep out of my eyes and head to the kitchen to make breakfast. I just get some cereal ready for the morning and pour myself some more. I smile at the straw and lift again. I twirl it around like a blade and set it back down. I start to eat, but I get bored, so I practice with the straw while I focus on my food. I'm eating my third bowl of cereal, still twirling and spinning the straw, when Lucifer stirs and sits up. "Hey Raven. Your up early." He says an yawns. "I didn't really sleep last night. I ended up getting like three hours I think." I say and stuff my face with more Cheerios. "What were you doing?" He asks and I smack him in the face with the spoon, while staring at my cereal trying to suppress a laugh. "No way. Raven, you were up all night teaching yourself this?" He asks transfixed my the straw. "Yeah, why?" I ask and set down the straw. "It's pretty light so it wasn't that hard. Don't get me wrong, I was struggling when it came to lifting it for the first time and doing two things at once, but I slowly figured it out." I say proudly and Luci nods. "Can you lift anything else?" He asks mesmerized. "Probably only things as light of lighter then that straw." I say and he nods. "Just try to lift the spoon." He says and I focus on the spoon. It shakes and lifts around five inches off the table but nothing near as great as the straw. I guess nine straight hours of hard core, lonely practice make perfect, right?

(A/N: It's a long one! Do like the little comic I made? I wanted your opinion so I put it as the photo. Comment here. By the way, the songs I used were I'm bringing sexy back by: Justin Timberlake, Riptide by: Vance Joy, S.O.S. by: Gin Wingmore, and I Can't Feel my Face by: The Weekend. All great songs in their respective fields. S.O.S. and Riptide are two of my favourites. I recommend both of the to you. Go. Now. Listen to them. Gin Wingmore and Vance Joy are great artist. I love a lot of Gins' stuff. Go listen to it. Oh well. I'm done rambling. Tally-Ho!)
