Robin wakes up when she can feel the sun hitting her face through the window. She realizes she still is laying her head on Castiel's chest when she feels it steadily rising and falling. He has a peaceful expression as he sleeps that Robin can't take her eyes off of. After a few moments, she looks at her clock. 6:37. The bed creaks when she sits up. "You're up," Castiel's voice says behind her.

"Yeah. Could I go to school today?" she asks.

"If that's what you desire."

"I do... because this'll be my last chance to see everyone, even though they hate me."

"I'm confused as to why this would be your last chance," he gives her a confused look.

"Because I decided I'll go with you, Sam, and Dean. They're right. I can't just live here by myself."

He stares at her for a second, then averts his eyes to the window, looking rather sad. "What is it?" Robin questions.

"Nothing. You need to get ready or you won't get to your building of education in time."

"Uh, you mean school, right?"

"Yes. School."

Robin stands up and walks towards her dresser. Opening her top drawer, she pulls out a pair or dark purple cheeky panties, a matching bra, and a pair of black ankle socks. In the next drawer, she grabs a white tank top. From the bottom, black skinny jeans. Then, she heads over to the bathroom, turns on the light, and closes the door. Castiel stares at the door for a minute, then lays back on the bed.

"What time must you leave?" he calls out to her.

Her muffled voice says back, "At around 7:30."

"I shall inform you when that time comes."

He goes silent again, and listens to the sounds of movement coming from the bathroom. For the next half hour, he lays there and waits, every few minutes checking the clock. At exactly 7:30, he gets up, walks over to the bathroom, and opens the door. However, when he opens it, Robin screams at him in surprise. She is standing there, her makeup is done, her hair is in a bun, and clothed in only her bra and underwear. The scars which she has covered her body in are clearly visible. Castiel stands there, with an extremely surprised expression, staring at her. "Get out!" she yells.

"My apologies," he tells her sincerely, and closes the door.

The image is imprinted in his mind, and he tries to forget it, but can't. This confuses him. He also sees many scars on her, which is very concerning. He is soon thinking of this, which overtakes the other thought on his mind. Soon, she walks out of the bedroom acting like what just took place didn't happen. "Lets go," she says cheerfully. He gives her a questioning look, then follows her. They walk to the front door, then step out of it.

"Can you teleport me there? Ya know, to somewhere they won't see us arrive?" Robin asks.

"Alright."

She gladly hugs him, and he holds her back. Again, she feels the pain, but when they arrive at her school it quickly subsides. "Thank you," she let goes of him. "I'll see you after school."

"Okay," he says as he quickly disappears.

She walks around to the front of the school, then enters through the front doors. The secretary smiles and nods at her as she walks past the office. Robin's thoughts won't stray from when Castiel walked in on her earlier. That was so embarrassing she thinks to herself. She goes into her first class. 

For most of the day, nothing eventful happens. At lunch though, that changes. She sees Katelyn and the rest of her friends sitting at their usual table. When Katelyn looks up, she makes eye contact with Robin. "Hey, bitch. Finally coming back to school, are you?"

Robin shuffles uncomfortably where she's standing. "Shut up, Katelyn. It isn't your problem," she says with a quiet voice.

She laughs. "What does it matter?"

Robin starts hurrying across the cafeteria when she feels a hand grab her shoulder. She's pushed to the floor.

"Where do you think you're going?" shouts Katelyn.

Robin feels her face heating up and her eyes watering. "Get away from me, Katelyn." A fist collides with her face, and her nose pops. Then, she feels her shirt being tore at the shoulder, and it rips completely, exposing her chest.

Suddenly, she sees someone run across the room at them. At first, she thinks it's a teacher. But when he grabs Katelyn and throws her off of her, she knows who it is. "Castiel... Why... why are you here?" she asks in a weak voice as she looks up at him.

His beautiful face stares down at her, with the sun illuminating around it creating a crown of light. "I could sense you were in trouble. I'm here for you now. Don't worry." He slides his hands under her and picks her up. 

While all of this happens, a crowd gathers around them. Everyone stares. "Go, now." They continue to stare. "Now!" He commands. They all walk away from her. Then, he looks down at her and smooths her hair. "It's okay."

"Thank you, Cas." Blood trickles down her chin when she speaks. 

"Shh." He holds her tight and brings her back to her house.
