My Angel

The Funeral

Dean:
Today is the day my life officially ends, the day I lay my angel to rest. Castiel was the shimmer of hope I had left in my life and now, he is gone.

Once we arrive at the funeral I catch up to Gabe. "Hey Gabe, I don't think I am going to be able to hold it together."

"Don't worry my dear ol' Dean-o, either will I. I think you are forgetting this is my baby brother. I practically raised the kid, he worshipped the ground I walked on." Gabe said with a chuckle, tears rolling down his face.

"Hey man don't do that you are going to make me cry." I pull Gabe into a hug, both of us drowning in our own tears. "Gabe?"

"Yea?" He sniffles mid nose blow.

"I know it has only been 4 days but it feels like an eternity and I don't know how much longer I can do this. He was perfect, my everything and I-I lost him." I continue crying into Gabe's arms.

I have lost track of time, this day I dreaded immensely made me realize that my angel is in a better place now. He has nothing to worry about, he is safe.

As I walk out to my car I feel the tears swelling in my eyes. I go back to his apartment and stay with Meowsha, the only thing I have left that reminds me of him: those beating blue eyes, and the black, raven fur. This cat is now my angel. I have to protect him and love him because that is what Cas would want. I have to stay strong.

So much for staying strong. Once I get back to the apartment all of our wonderful memories come rushing back and I am running into them even though the pain feels like a brick wall. I lay on the bed remembering everything that had happened with Sam when Cas was still alive.

I feel something hard under the pillow, when I go to pick it up I am confused. It looks like a scrapbook. When I open it I realize that it is a scrapbook.

As I open the cover I see a picture of Cas and I from the day we first met. Man, I love him. Throughout the book I notice there is a picture from every single date we went on. That sentimental little assbutt. These are the memories I will always cherish.
