"Look I'm trying to keep you safe, you have to do as I say so we can work things out. It might not be safe for you. He has your phone number right? He could use that against you.. Two minutes."

Cas waited, her arms crossed across her chest. She was perfectly capable of looking after herself. If she had never met Arturo, she would be able to deal with Dean on her own. Now Arturo was complicating things. She knew Dean, she knew how he worked, she knew how to work him. Arturo knew none of that. She wasn't exactly sure she wanted to be taking orders from a man who still thought murder was a viable option.

Arturo came back in with a box. She held out a hand and took it from him. Opening the box, she found a new phone inside.

"Here. use this from now on, don't give anyone the number until we are certain that this Dean character is safe. Please. If your not going to stay in here like I suggested just do this."

Cas raised an eyebrow as she pocketed the phone. "Dean will be safe when he's out of town. I'll avoid him, trust me, spending any time with him is right at the bottom of my list. But if we're dealing with Dean, we remember that this is the twenty first century, and you are not settling this on my behalf in some stupid battle to the death or whatever it was they did when you were human. We deal with Dean, not you, since you're insisting on being involved."

Cas ran her hand through her hair. "Thanks for the phone."
