Cass runs up to Sam and nearly tackles him, he hugs so hard. "Sam!" He exclaims.

Sam hugs back and smiles. "Hey, buddy." Sam's three-year old daughter runs outside and hugs Cass.

"'Cuh-Cassie. Play!" She pulls on his Khaki's.

Cass laughes. "Okay, just let me talk to your dad for a minute. I'll be in in a little bit."

She frowns and mopes inside.

"What's up, Cass? Is something wrong?" Sam asks, worriedly.

"Oh, I just wanted to see if it was okay if Jack comes over later." Cass states.

"Oh, yeah, of course! Delilah loves Jack, you know that, Cass!" Sam laughs. He grabs Cass' arm. "C'mon. She missed you. We all did." Sam guides Cass through the door.

Seven years ago, Cass' husband had died. His name was Dean, and he was perfect. Cass loved him with everything he had, so it had hit him hard when the doctors told Dean he had cancer. It was terminal, inoperable. He only lived for a few months after that.

Cass hadn't been able to stand the pain, so he did drugs, and he killed people for the hell of it, all of the time not getting caught,  for 6 years until Sam and Jess announced they were pregnant.

It took Cass most of Jess' term to get ahold of his life again. He had to stop using drugs, he had to get himself fed on animals and donations, and he had to forget about Dean. It didn't work, as he still thinks about Dean everyday.

Cass is greeted at the door by Jessica, who gives him a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Hey, Cass! How's the water?" She asks.

"What are you speaking of?" Cass asks, tilting his head.

Jess laughs. "You married Dean Winchester, and you still can't speak Winchester. That's funny. I'm asking how you are."

Delilah rushes into the living room and pushes a stuffed unicorn into Cass' lap. "Cuh-Cassie! Play unicorns! Unicorns!" Delilah begs, tugging his pants.

"One second, Delilah. Your mom asked me a question. May I answer it?" Cass asks. Delilah shakes her head and sits down.

"I've been good, Jess. Jack and I haven't gotten into any major fights, and since he's a V-A-M-P too, it's easier. It's simpler." Cass answered and sat down to play "unicorns" with Delilah.

Around 7:30, someone knocks at the door. Delilah gets up and yells "I answer! I answer!" She opens the door to see Jack, and leaps onto his leg, squeezing it tightly. "Cuh-Cassie! Cuh-Jack is here! Hi, hi Cuh-Jack!"

Sam, Cass and Jess all come over to greet Jack.

They walk inside, Cass and Jack holding hands, and sit down at the table. Jess takes a roast out if the oven and sets it on the table, then picks up Delilah and puts her in her high-chair. She grabs plates and glasses and silver ware, placing them in front of everybody.

Jess takes a seat and grabs Sam and Delilah's hands. She closes her eyes and they begin to pray.

It's interrupted, however, by the bursting of Sam's door.

Cass turns to the doorframe. It's Dean. Love of his life Dean. Exchanged vows Dean. The Dean. His takes in a deep breath.

"Hiya, Sammy. Took a shit ton of time to find your address. Living some 'normal, apple pie life' now?" Dean asks. He then takes in the whole scene. Delilah, Sam, Jess, wedding rings, Cass and his new boyfriend, wait, what?

Dean looks straight at Cass. He melts like the first time he saw him. "C-Cass, who is this?" Dean asks, pointing to Jack.

"Fuck." Cass mutters under his breath.

"There are children present." Jess hisses, covering Delilah's ears.

"Actually, just child. I know, it's hard to tell the difference between Sam and a toddler sometimes." Dean chuckles. "Seriously, Cass, who is this?"
