Snow

Chapter 4

Cas bunches the covers around himself while Dean gets out of the bed. "Come now hun, you'll miss breakfast if you stay in bed all day" Mrs Hutchins says. Cas makes a noise of discontent from under the blanket. It takes a moment but eventually Cas throws off the covers and gets up. Dean notes that his hair is sticking up all over the place. Cas goes over to the mirror and smooths his hair down. Dean laughs and Cas turns around and looks at him with a hint of annoyance on his face. "Yes I style my hair and yes it gets messed up at night" Cas says, "you're hair isn't in its best state either." "Yeah yeah I know" Dean says going to join Cas at the mirror, smoothing his own hair down. "You two spend more time on your hair than my daughter" Mrs Hutchins chuckles. Dean laughs and walks away from the mirror. Cas follows closely behind. They all walk downstairs to the kitchen where breakfast was cooking. "How much did you actually sleep last night?" Dean asks quietly. "Really well actually, I got like 3 hours" Cas replies. Dean looks at Cas and is about to say something but is interrupted by Mr Hutchins walking into the kitchen. "Did you boys sleep well last night" he asks, "it got really cold." "Yeah" Dean says brightly. Mr Hutchins looks at Cas expectantly. Cas flashes a smile that makes Dean's heart melt. "So after breakfast I thought we could see if your folks could come get you" Mrs Hutchins says "but if they can't you two could walk home." "Okay" Dean says. They go sit down at the able and Mrs Hutchins brings in breakfast. They eat in comfortable silence until all of them are done and have taken their dishes into the kitchen. They go into the living room and while the couple watches the news Dean texts Bobby to ask him if he can pick him up. 'Sure boy just give me a minute' Bobby texts back. Dean looks over at Cas and sees him frowning at his phone. "What's wrong?" Dean asks. "My mom says I got myself into this situation and I can get myself out so I have to walk home" Cas says. "I'll ask if you can hitch a ride with us" Dean says. "Thanks" Cas says. Ten minutes later Dean hears a horn honking outside. "Oh that would be Bobby" he says. They both get up. "We goodbye boys" Mrs Hutchins says "it was lovely having you." Dean smiles and makes his way to the door, closely followed by Cas. Dean opens the door and Cas gasps. "Is that an impala?" he says. "Yeah" Dean says "1967 Chevrolet Impala." "That's cool" Cas says. They trudge through the snow and Sam's sitting shotgun so they get in the back seat. "So this is Cas" Bobby says. "Hi" Cas says. "I like your hair" Sam says. "Thanks" Cas says with a grin. Bobby starts the impala and soon they're making their way home. "So where do you live?" Bobby asks. "1467 Kansas Av" Cas says. "Okay" Bobby replies. "So you really had to sleep in old Mrs and Mr Hutchins' house" Sam says turning around to face them. "Yep" Dean says. "I bet it smelled like cabbage" he says turning back around to look ahead. "Eh not really, whatch' you think" Dean says looking over at Cas. "No" Cas says. Bobby turns down Cas's street and slows down because of the snow still a little thick here. They make their way down the street until Bobby pulls up at Cas's house. "Oh hey before I go can I get your number?" Cas says. "Why" Dean says surprised. Cas rolls his eyes a little. "Well you're the only friend I gotten in a long time so I would like to keep in touch" he says. "Sure" Dean says telling cas his number. Cas taps the number into his phone and looks back up at Dean. "Thanks" Cas says before leaving the car and walking up to his porch. Everyone locks their doors at night to keep raccoons out so Cas knocks on the door. It opens and a woman who must be his mom looks at him and looks disappointed. "Thank you for driving my son home" she yells out to Bobby a little pointedly. "No problem miss" Bobby responds. She shoos Cas in the door and they drive off.
