Chapter 20

A dog ran out of the house and up to the boys as (Y/n) slowly stood and dusted herself off. The dog barked and pulled on Cas's trench coat, like he was trying to play with him. Cas could sense something different about this dog, he just couldn't figure out what. (Y/n) whistled and the dog ran inside.

"Hey boys." (Y/n) said again.

"We just saw you..." Sam said. "You were younger than me..."

"Well, now I'm older than Dean." (Y/n) said with a shrug. "Do you guys want to come in?" Cas, Dean, Sam, Adam, and Bobby all looked at each other. They hadn't expected her to be so calm about seeing them, but then they realized there were neighbors. While they were in a fenced in yard, you never knew who was listening in.

"Yeah. Sure." Sam said. (Y/n) nodded and turned off the radio that set on the back patio. She opened the door and led them in, Dean helping Bobby get inside.

They took a look around the house. It was a beautiful place. Clean and modern. There were crude crayon drawings on the fridge and Minnie Mouse sippy cups drying by the sink. Dean looked at (Y/n).

"How the hell did you find me?" (Y/n) asked. She glared at Cas. "Was it you?"

"(Y/n), we are friends." Cas said. (Y/n) rolled her eyes.

"Yeah. Young twenty something me that wasn't screwed over by you Cassie boy." (Y/n) hissed. She looked over at Sam and Adam, her eyes filling with tears. "You ruined my life Castiel."

"I am sorry." Cas said. "I really did not know of my actions." (Y/n) shook her head. The dog growled at Cas some before licking (Y/n)'s hand.

"(Y/n)..." Sam said softly. She looked up at him. "You're...you're my mom?" He asked. She sighed and nodded.

"I didn't think you'd ever remember." She said. "But then again, I didn't think you'd ever find me." She moved away from where she had been standing. "I'll be right back." Quickly disappearing into the basement, she came back a moment later with a box. She set it on the counter. "I kept these all this time. It didn't change when you were taken away from me, so I kept them as a memory." Sam looked at Dean, who nodded. He opened the box and pulled out pictures. Ones he had colored, ones from his time at the Catholic school, some of him holding a little baby.

"Is that...me?" Adam asked, looking at the picture from where he stood by Sam.

"You were fussy right before that picture was taken." (Y/n) explained. "The only song that would calm you down was "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" by Creedence Clearwater Revival." She smiled fondly at the memory.

Dean, Sam, and Adam took turns grabbing things out of the box and examining it. Some of the pictures had Dean and John in them, but a lot were taken from the months (Y/n) and Sam spent in Wisconsin. The whole time, that dog kept eyeing Cas.

"There is something wrong with your canine." Cas commented.

"Watch your mouth." The dog said, making everyone stop what they were doing.

"Did your dog just talk?" Bobby asked. (Y/n) sighed.

"Guys, this is our current housemate...Gabriel." (Y/n) said, pinching the bridge of her nose. Suddenly, the dog was gone and there stood the archangel that was supposed to be dead.

"Hiya boys!" Gabriel laughed. "Miss me?"

"What the fuck?" Dean hissed. Gabriel wagged his finger.

"Watch your mouth sir." Gabriel said.

"And why the fuck should I?" Dean asked. Just then, the sound of little feet on the floor could be heard followed by a squeal.

"Uncle Gabe!" A little girl said, launching herself at the archangel. "Mommy, Uncle Gabe is here!" She smiled at (Y/n). (Y/n) picked the little girl up.

"Sam, Dean, Adam...this is Rosie. Your little sister." (Y/n) explained. The boys and Bobby all looked at each other. It had to be the same Rosie that Cas had mentioned earlier. She had John's eyes and (Y/n)'s smile. And she looked a little bit like what Sam looked like at that age. Dean couldn't believe it.

"Brothers?" Rosie asked. She looked at the boys. "But they're so big." Dean walked forward then.

"Hi Rosie, I'm Dean." He said. "I'm your oldest brother." Dean was always good with kids. (Y/n) just knew he would be a great father someday. And that was confirmed when Rosie reached for him and he held the four year old with a smile on his face. "I guess she is kinda cute."

"I'm a big brother." Adam said, staring at her. "How old is she?"

"She's four." (Y/n) explained. "She was born December 7th, 2005." Sam and Dean looked up at (Y/n).

"Was...was dad here for it?" Sam asked. (Y/n) nodded.

"I know that he should've been with you boys. And I tried to get him to go to you, but he just wouldn't." (Y/n) explained. She looked over at Gabriel, who had been talking to Cas. He smiled at her.

"Well, I think my welcome here has worn thin." He said. "I have to be going now. Oh, but I didn't forget that I owe you and Rosie a gift." (Y/n) shook her head.

"Gabriel..." But he cut her off by snapping.

"I'll be back December 7th!" With that, he was gone. (Y/n) sighed.

"I've had peace for the past few years. And in one day everything is going crazy." She groaned. That's when the doorbell rang. "Great. What now?" She smiled at Dean, who was still holding Rosie. Dean motioned with his head towards Sam, who nodded and followed (Y/n), just in case. He stood back as (Y/n) opened the door. She gasped and covered her mouth, making Sam go for the gun hidden in his waistband.

"Honey, I'm home." A voice said. (Y/n) stumbled back, tears in her eyes. Sam instantly went to her, catching her before she could fall back completely. There stood a younger man in the same clothes he would never forget. Clothes that he had burnt in 2006. And a face that was more reminiscent of 1983. Sam's eyes widened.

"Dad?"
