Not in that Way- Destiel/Sabriel

Chapter 5- Charlie

"Hey babe?" I shouted into our dark apartment, lit only by the light leaking out from the open refrigerator door in front of me.

"Yeah," Her voice was soft and sweet.

"When was the last time we went grocery shopping?" I asked even though I already knew the answer. The fridge in front of me held only a stick of butter and some leftovers that were starting to mold. It had been way to long.

"I don't kno-" her voice was cut off by a loud banging on the apartment door. I shut the refrigerator door.

I made my way towards the light switch and flipped it on before making my way to the door. I peeked through the peep hole. It was Cas...?

The last time Cas and I had talked, we got into a huge fight. He didn't think he deserved to find love. I had been trying for so long to help him find his happiness but he just didn't want to. The only reason he would come here was if something was seriously wrong...

Suddenly my hand were flying to the bolt and opening the door in a hurry.

My voice was rushed and full of concern, "Cas, what are you doing here, are you okay?"

He looked up at me, his eyes full of pain. But not like he was hurt this was a new kind of pain for him. One that hurt worse than any bruise or broken bone.

"Hey Charles, can I come in?"

I stepped back letting him slide inside before softly shutting the door behind him.

"Who is it," Dorothy called from the bedroom.

"It's Cas..." I shouted back to her.

"What, is he okay, why is he here?" Her voice was louder this time

"Hi Dorothy," I remember now that Cas could here us shouting back and forth about him. "I'm fine. and I'm here for the free food!" I snorted at his comment. Last year when Dorothy and I got married Cas had shown up and announced to her that he was "Here for the free food!".

Dorothy finally shuffled out of the bedroom. "Well unless you want..." she paused opening the basically empty fridge. "...Butter or moldy leftovers..." she leaned around the door to face him, "...you're out of luck."

Cas laughed at her half asleep grin before she shut the fridge door and slumped down on the couch.

"Sup with you Cas, you haven't called or been over here in like six months." At Dorothy's comment Cas looked at me with a mask of confusion. I never told Dorothy about our falling out.

"Well... did she not, did you not...?" He looked back and forth at us before both of their gazes landed on me.

"Yeah, um... she didn't know about... that." He looked apologetically at me.

Dorothy looked between us before sighing heavily. "Is somebody going to tell me what the hell happened between you guys or am I going to have to guess."

So I started with the day Cas and I met up the day before Valentine's Day about eight months ago. It was the first time we had met up since the wedding a few months earlier. Love was everywhere. From people buying cards and flowers to couples holding hands and making out around every corner.
