It was December. Snow covered Cincinnati, and Dean had to go to school on his birthday. He came home that afternoon in a sour mood. It was Monday, and it had been a long one at that.

He walked in the door and collapsed on the couch with a groan.

Roman glances at him from the kitchen. "Long day?" He asked. Dean nodded. "Well, it's about to get better. I just need you to do me one small favor..."

Dean grinned at him. "Go figure. What is it?"

"I need you to pick up your cake." Roman said, rubbing the back of his neck.

"You want me to drive to the store and pick up my own birthday cake?" Dean said, amused.

"I have to finish dinner." Roman replied defensively.

"Whatever. Yeah, I'll pick it up." Dean reached for the remote, pausing as he saw Roman still watching him. "Now?"

His friend nodded. "Alright, alright." He got up off the couch and grabbed the keys. "Be back soon."
