Cas (POV) 

I wake up the next morning feeling better then i have done in a long time. My eyes were still tightly shut and my mouth was curved upwards into a smile as warm quilts as well as Dean's arms are wrapped around me comfortably, making me warm and cosy against the morning chill drifting in through the fireplace but it wasn't hitting me at all, i was so comfortable...

"DADDDDDDDDDYYYYYYYYYYY.......S" I heard Valentina's voice cry from her room and me and Dean opened our eyes at the same time, looking at each other. We sigh and sit up in bed, rubbing our eyes and yawning as Valentina called us again and again.

"WHAT?!" Dean called back finally and she burst into our room. We both quickly reached towards the covers and pulled them up our waist so everything was covered as she skipped in and hopped on to bed. Dean stiffened slightly and edged away from her while i was still trying to cover myself up awkwardly.

"I'm bored! Can we go out?" She said, blowing a bit of stray hair from her face while being completely oblivious to the awkwardness she had put on me and Dean. 

"Yes, sure! Go get ready." Dean said quickly and i look at him annoyed. He shrugs and looks at me in a way to say; 'what else was i meant to say?' as Val cheers and bounds off the bed and back out of the room, not shutting the door behind her. 

"What did you go and say that for? Where the hell are we meant to go?" I snap and he shrugs again and sigh, flicking his wrists to shut the door from where we were sat. "It's dangerous Dean, by now both the kingdoms will be out looking for us!"

"It won't hurt to go into a human village, we are extremely far away from either kingdoms and it would take them weeks to get here." He tells me in a defeated voice and i frown but nod anyway.

"Fine, but i'm taking extra precautions." He nods in agreement and we both slide out of bed and get dressed quickly as the cold air brushed against out naked skin. I begin to walk out of the door but Dean grabs my arm and turns me back around. I frown at him again but he is just smiling down at me with a twinkle in his eye. "What?"

"I had fun last night." He murmered, bringing his face down to peck my lips softly. I smile, even though i didn't want to, into the kiss and deepen is but pulling him forwards. We break apart finally and he rests his forehead on mine contently, closing his eyes as he did so. 

"HURRY UP!" Val called and we step away from each other and roll our eyes.

"PLEASE." I call back and i hear her mumble something before shouting back a please. Dean laughed slightly and i shook my head before we both walked out of the room and downstairs to where Valentina is waiting his her red cloak and black dress.

"Alright Little Red, we're here." Dean says, grinning at the little girl who was tapping her foot impatiently. 

"Finally." She scolds, handing us our cloaks and walking over to the door, stepping out quickly. Dean gives me a worried look and I just pout at him before following our daughter out of the door quickly, only to find her already down at the bottom of the path and next to a large oak tree. "Hurry up!" She says again, stomping her little feet so me and Dean walk a little faster towards her. She holds out her hands so we take one each and start walking away from the protection of the house and into the woods. 

"Do you know which way the market is Dada?" She asks, looking at Dean and he shakes his head. "Do you know which way the market is Papa?" She asks me, and my heart warms when she calls me this. So long i have been waiting for her to call me this and finally....

"Yes, it's this way." I tell her, pointing deeper into the woods. Thankfully it didn't look to looming and i still had enough strength left inside me to fight off anything that could be a danger to my family. Me and Dean also had out swords just in case out powers were drained from building the wooden cottage that would suffice until i had enough power within me to make it a bit better. We walk for what seems like forever, but it was only about half an hour. Valentina at some point let go of our hands and started walking a bit of a way in front, looking at flowers and talking to... trees? Strange child. Mine and Dean's hands glasp together during the walk and it seemed like in that moment everything was perfect. That was until however we got to the outskirts of the small village by the sea and Dean had to take his hand away from mine. Human's were strange about these sorts of relationships, i never really understood why.
