"How you doin' Cas?" Dean asked as he answered the phone.

"I'm fine. Sam is engaged to a girl named Jessica Moore. She has a kid named Ash that Sam adopted also. They live at 3682 Chino Street. Sam seems to work at the local police station and Jessica works at the local hospital. Ash goes to the local private school, St. Gabriel's. They have a St. Bernard, so we'll have to get a dog to help with that." Castiel's voice came through the phone.

"Cool. I'll pick up a dog tomorrow. You should get back to the hotel and take a nap. I found a friend of his that should be easy enough to take out. She's supposed to be at a bar tonight at 8, so we'll go there at around 9 and wait for her to leave." Dean said as he opened Baby's door and got in.

"Okay. I'll see you there. If I'm asleep, don't wake me up. I forgot how much energy it takes to stalk someone." Dean barked a laugh. "What?" Castiel asked confusedly.

Dean sandwiched the flip phone between his head and shoulder so he could keep both hands on the wheel. "Nothing, I just realised how weird our lives are."

"Yeah, I suppose so. I'll ask the hotel people if we can keep a dog in our room. Probably say something like we came here to get the dog, so just go with whatever they say." Dean could practically see the smirk that Castiel had on.

"Cool. Get rested up, I'm gonna need you tonight." He barely finished his sentence before Castiel hung up on him. "Okay, bye Cas." Dean muttered sarcastically as he pulled into the local animal shelter.

Three Hours Later
"Hey, Cas buddy. It's time to go." Dean said softly as he gently shook Castiel awake. "You'd think that a serial killer would sleep lighter." He muttered before sighing. "I'm so going to get punched for this."

He walked over to one of the bags he'd brought and rummaged through it. After a few seconds of looking, Dean pulled out an airhorn. He sighed again before gritting his teeth and put it next to Castiel's ear. "Cas, buddy. If you don't get up right now, I'm going to make a very loud noise." He warned. Castiel didn't respond, so Dean pressed down the top of the air horn.

The reaction was immediate. Castiel jumped up, grabbed Dean's hand, and tried to flip Dean over his shoulder, but actually just threw Dean on the floor who pulled Castiel down with him. "Ugh, I hate you so much right now!" He yelled.

Dean smirked before flipping them over so he was on top and Castiel was pinned underneath him on the floor. "Do you?" He asked, his voice husky as he leaned so close to Castiel that he could smell Dean's mint toothpaste.

Suddenly, a giant St. Bernard barreled into Dean, ruining the moment. The dog started licking Castiel's face until Dean pulled her off him. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. This is Ruby, our new dog!"

Castiel sat up and stared at Ruby, who was about eye level with him when she was standing and he was sitting. "I thought I said borrow?"

Dean grinned, running his hands through Ruby's fur. "Well, I figured that it'd be better if we just kept her. Bobby could use her when we're busy, and she'll be useful for cops."

Castiel stood and started petting Ruby too, surprised when she moved closer to him, nearly knocking him over. "True. I think she likes me."

"I've always wanted to get a dog. Now we can cliche and run with a dog in the mornings."

Castiel looked up at him. "Which brings us back to the plan. Tomorrow I'll run with the dog because I've changed the most and I know where Sam likes to run with the dog. When should we leave tonight?"

Checking his watch, Dean answered, "She got there about half an hour ago and the bar is on the other side of town, so we should leave in about 10 minutes. I'm all ready, but you should change."
