Dean scowled at Sammy's explanations. It sounded logical but dammit! He was the older brother, it was his job to take care of Sam.Then Cas spoke and Dean tiredly looked at the Angel in his trenchcoat looking apologetic, then Cas's eyes slid to Cassie making Dean absently stroke her knee again. Then an apology and something crossing Cas's face he didn't entirely understand. "Yeah well it's not like I haven't done the occasional job around here when it cropped up. Besides you could have kept in touch still. Cassie's had to babysit my ass on the bad nights." Dean said letting his head fall back on the couch. He was getting extremely tired, all the energy he just spent being angry for even that short of time took too much energy out of him. He was glad Sam was packing their things, Cas tended to forget human needs sometimes.
