Castiel's Secret

Chapter 19

After very little discussion everyone, not including Gabriel, decided it would be best to take a much safer way home. The traditional way, in a car, that both Sam and Dean had to hotwire. They 'borrowed' two cars from the closest town to the temple. Malia, Jackson, Scott, Balthazar, and Isaac rode in one car. The original plan was for the alpha to join them, but neither Stiles nor Derek approved of that plan, and after much arguing Dean gave in.

Riding in a car with his family and Derek was a bit odd but Stiles felt most comfortable being with his mom, Castiel. No one had really talked to one another and for some reason the air around them felt tense. The only time anyone had talked was when Dean had called Scott to tell him they would be staying at the motel that had been mention by the road signs on the highway.

It had just gotten a whole lot weirder for him when they had all gotten to the motel. Sam, had rented them 3 rooms. One was for the werewolves, another was for Malia since it would not be right to have her sleep with all males, and the last one was for him and his family which had resulted in an argument between Derek and Dean.

"Why is he sleeping in your motel room?" Derek snarled at Dean, using his alpha voice that had little to no effect on Dean. "Stiles is pack, if anything he should be staying with us where I can keep an eye on him!"

"Yeah, cause that worked so well last time!" Dean retorted before adding, "The kid is staying with us in our room, we can protect him better."

"Protect him?! Are you kidding me? You don't know a thing about Stiles to know how to protect him!" Derek growled as he pulled Stiles towards him.

"So? I don't need to know anything about him to know how to protect him from monsters." Dean said as he pulled Stiles back to him.

"Dean!" Sam yelled getting both his brother's and the alpha's attention on him. "Would you guys stop tugging on Stiles? He's not a toy, besides I think he should be the one to decide where he wants to sleep." Sam couldn't get what was up with them. He could understand that the alpha had feelings for his nephew and Dean didn't like that, but this was just childish. From what he could see, it wasn't like his nephew was rejecting the alpha's advances on him. Dean was just being too over protective, and that wasn't a good thing. He should know, he's dealt with Dean's over protectiveness all his life.

"Yeah Dean-o give the kid a break," Gabriel said with a grin as he wrapped his arms around his nephew's shoulders. "I suggest you two just shut up before you attract unwanted attention." Balthazar said as he looked around the motel room as if expecting someone to pop up stirring trouble before looking at Gabriel who was holding their nephew and giving him a knowing look.

"Whatever, I'm going to call my baby and let her know it's going to take us some time to get home," Malia said as she took her key from Sam's hand, "Goodnight guys," she said before going to Stiles and kissing his cheek whispering something that no one but the werewolves heard that were along the lines of bidding goodnight to the pack mother.

"I vote for Stiles to stay with us," Isaac said as he moved to cling onto Stiles, "I haven't seen him in two years, and I want to catch up." If it were just Isaac, Stiles would have been sold. Those puppy eyes could make you do anything and say yes to anything. Even Derek fell for them, that is how Isaac had gotten Derek to say yes on going a trip to England to visit Jackson. However what had been thought would be a two week vacation trip turned out to be a two year long trip because they had run into trouble. Stiles would be lying if he said he had not been dying to drown Isaac and Jackson in questions on what really had held Isaac back.

"No way! Every time you and Stiles are together you two never stop talking, and I am not putting my sleep on the line for you two." Jackson said immediately after Isaac had voiced his desire to spend the night in the presence of their alpha's mate, "No offense, Stiles and Derek but if I have to be stuck in a car with you guys for nth amount of hours then I rather get enough sleep." He finished with before Derek ripped his head off.
