8 years later.
Castiel smiled widely while adjusting Kevin's tie "just remember"
"Be confident and don't let them intimidate you" Kevin recited, smiling down at his dad. "Dont worry, dad. I got this, I'll call you as soon as I finish"
Castiel nodded, planting a kiss on Kevin's forehead "go get them, champ" Kevin grinned and walked out of the door, heading into his car.
Gabriel: Sam's asking if Kevin went to the interview yet?
Castiel: he just left, wish him luck for me.
Gabriel: Whats he promoting?
Castiel: A device he made, it's like a portable 3D printer, where you could make VR appear in real time.
Gabriel: like a hologram?
Castiel: no, a living, breath (depends on what you're bringing to life) thing.
Gabriel: that's too good for 2029
Castiel: he's bright as the sun, he's ahead of his time.
Gabriel: meet us to get breakfast? Ben wants to meet you, he's having difficulty with presenting his work to his classmates.
Castiel: ill be there.

"Benedict, you better get your ass down here now!" Jess yelled, and Castiel waved her from afar. "Bad grades" Gabriel smiled, closing the door behind Cas.
"Math?" Gabriel nodded, Castiel hugged Sam with a polite smile.
"Uncle Cas!" Helena grinned, running and hugging Cas' side.
"Hey Angel, what's been going on?" Castiel smiled, bending down and kissing the top of her head.
"I got a good grade, mommy says you're a good teacher. Can you help me with geography?" He smiled "Also I lost a teeth!"
"Tooth, baby" Sam corrected as she pointed at her middle tooth's vacant space. "Look, I can poke my tongue out of it!" Castiel laughed, lifting Helena and carrying her on an arm.
"How's Kevin's nerves?" Sam asked, handing Helena a cup of Orange juice. "He's getting better, he booked his gig last year. He says this is a better one"
"I'm sorry" Ben shouted, storming in and violently sitting on a stole. "Ben" San started, but Ben stopped him "I got a bad grade because I didn't study. I don't understand math or social, I'm bad at French and I suck at art. I don't understand how people speak fluent Arabic. And English is a boring subject" He listed
"I can help you in your French studies, and I've majored in Arabic before" Castiel popped in, fist pumping Ben with a smile.
"What about Helena and her studies?"
"Dont worry about it bee. I have loads of free time." Castiel grinned.
"Thanks uncle Cas"
"I've told you both hundreds of times, You don't need formality" The door bell rang and Gabriel raised and eye brow. Castiel placed Helena on a stool with a smile and went to open it.
Sam gave Jess a worried look, and Ben grinned. The door rang again and Castiel opened it, freezing as he saw the figure stand in front of him.
"Cas..." Dean breathed with a smile, his eyes glistening again. Castiel blinked, stepping away from the door and let Dean in. since it isnt his house and he had no right to close the door in Dean's face.
"Hey, Dean" San smiled awkwardly, as he kept his eyes on Castiel. Who was frantically texting on his phone.
Castiel: did you know he was going to be here?
Gabriel: I swear I didn't!
Castiel: Gabriel!
Gabriel: Ok fine, Maybe I've had little In tell but I didn't know he was coming here today!
Castiel: oh my god! Gabriel Novak I will personally kick your ass when you leave.
Gabriel: sorry, little big brother.
"Cas?" Dean extended his hand, and Castiel shook it, hiding his anger and slight sadness "good to see you again, I see the years have been kind to you, eh?" He joked, but castiel saw right through his facade. "Yeah, yeah they have been" Castiel smiled, his biggest fakeist Smile he could muster up. "Hey, Helena, hey Ben" Dean smiled as he walked towards the kitchen. "Uncle Dean, hi!" Ben smiled and waved, while Helena was too consumed in her drink to care if even her favourite character trotted Into the kitchen.
"Are you alright?" Jess smiled kindly towards Cas as he shook his head "yeah, why wouldn't I be?"
"Come on, let's have breakfast" she encouraged, pushing Castiel into the kitchen.
"Uncle cas? What do dunes mean?"
"Sand dunes?"
"Yeah"
"Its when the wind pushed sand into a big pile and sometimes it solidifies over the years"
"Like when you clean your toys under the bed?" Ben asked
"Not exactly? But sort of"
"Who is Napoleon?"
"A French dictator?"
"He invaded Egypt?"
"More like most of the world, except the parts that Britain had"
"Can we go to America?" Ben asked, looking at his father.
"Why?"
"Jake is moving there and I want to be with him, he's my best friend"
"We can't exactly go here, Bee. Maybe over the summer?" Castiel offered, with a smile, forgetting dean's existence in the room, while he sulked on the corner with his coffee In hand.
