Addalaciea De' Leon's Story

---

---

Addie could never sleep, it was beginning to become irritating. Not that angel’s needed sleep, but she’d been living like a human for so long, that sleep felt necessary to her and when she didn’t sleep she found she was more irritable than normal. So instead of sleeping like she wanted to she sat up in her bed, reading the completely works of Shakespeare, MacBeth was by far her favorite.

She spent the whole night reading the huge book from cover to cover and when she finally finished the last page the sun was rising. Normally she was out and about following Skylar around. She was the youngest Winchester and she could feel how strong the girl was. She was powerful and maybe that’s why Addalaceia felt the need to constantly look after her, because if she could feel Sky’s power so could other beings.

But, ever since she’d found her brother’s Lace had been protecting her less and less because she didn’t feel like Sky really needed her around much anymore. So for the past month she’d been residing in a house she bought a few years back in Marshall, which happened to be Sky’s home town. The house was too big for just her, but then again she’d gotten it for a good deal.

She made herself a cup of coffee, outside snow was loosely packed on the ground from last night’s storm, but despite last night’s storm the sun hung high in the. After she sat in silence sipping on her coffee for a long time she finally headed upstairs. She changed into her outfit slipping on her black calf high boots.

She looked herself over in the mirror. She’d gone through great lengths to avoid her father and make sure he wouldn’t recognize her. She’d dyed her natural chestnut hair, jet black, given herself bangs and cut her long, hip length hair to the middle of her back, not to mention blending in with the humans ad living like them had somehow made her appearance a little more rugged. She was still beautiful, it was just she’d lost a lot of her angelic look and had taken on a more human appearance.

She stepped outside and there was something strange in the air, she couldn’t place it but it was bothering her. The air around her was more powerful. She’d heard about a ghost, but this energy was different it wasn’t that of a ghost, she chose though to ignore it as she walked into town, she loved that her house wasn’t very far from town. She made her way to the small restaurant like she did every morning to have breakfast.

She sat down at the booth looking through the menu, despite the fact she already knew what she wanted. She did the same routine every day, as if she was really a boring human and a part of her really loved it. She glanced up only to recognize the Winchester brothers.

“Shit, what the hell are those idiots doing here.” She breathed hiding behind her menu even though she knew they wouldn’t know who she was she still felt the need to hide, if they were there it meant Sky was there.

Castiel had been following Sam on and off for the past year or so. He’d pulled Dean from hell and after that he’d become super close with the Winchester brothers. Then there was there little sister, who he’d grown quite fond of. She was brave, beautiful, and a hunter just like her brothers. Only he knew there was something special about her something that he couldn’t quite place yet.

When he wasn’t looking after the Winchester siblings or doing something Dean had ordered him to do, he was looking for his daughter Addalaceia. It’d been close to two hundred years since he’d seen her last and he was told she was still alive and if she was she was doing a damn good job at staying hidden and that killed him.

But, maybe that was why he’d grown so close to the Winchester’s because each of them reminded him a little bit of her in some way or another. Only there was a part of him the felt a little more for Skylar then he’d liked to admit, but he’d suppressed those feelings because it wasn’t right in more ways than one.

Not only was she Sam and Dean’s younger sister, but she was way too young, not to mention falling for a human was against heaven’s laws and he’d be kicked out for sure. It was bad enough he was already rebelling, to be kicked out for loving a human would be complete blasphemy on his part and he’d be damning Skylar. So ignoring his feelings for her was for the best, in everyone’s case.

He felt his cell phone ring in his pocket and Dean started spouting off his location like usual, but before he had a chance to finish Cas was already in the room standing before the two Winchester brother’s. He hung the phone up and slid it back into his pocket.

"Took you long enough. Did you find out anything about the ghost?" Dean asked.

“My apologize, but I have yet to find any information on the ghost.” He said standing fairly close to Dean. “I just got here.” He said honestly not sure why Dean seemed so upset already. He didn’t really understand human emotions, he’d gotten better at it, but it was still quite a mystery to him.

"Where have you been, Castiel? I haven't seen you in so long! I was beginning to think that you didn't like me anymore." Skylar said bursting through the door, ignoring her brother’s comment. Cas smiled at her as he hld her eyes watching her sit down on the bed.

"As you were saying, Cas? We need to get to work. If this ghost is as bad as we've heard, we need to take care of them and quick." Dean said before Cas had the chance to say anything to Sky. He flicked his eyes back to Dean and gave him a simple nod. "Okay, so me and Sam are going to go check out the house and pick up some food...you are going to stay here with Skylar. I'm serious Cas. Nothing better happen to her while we're gone."

Castiel nodded, he knew Dean was quite fond of his younger sister, despite the fact he didn’t show it, Cas just knew and because Dean and Sam cared for her, that made him care for her that much more. It was an odd feeling, he’d always been taught to have no emotion around the Humans yet it was different with the Winchesters.

"So, are we just going to sit here or do you want to watch something with me? Dean didn't say that we couldn't do that." he smiled back at her debating on what they could do, he didn’t mind looking after her. "You can't watch the movie from there. Here, sit with me."

He sat down next to her, not so much awkwardly, but a little stiff. Not exactly sure how to act around her alone, he’d never actually been alone with the youngest Winchester.

“A movie sounds nice.” He said calmly watching as she searched for a movie. “Why would you think that I didn’t like you?” he asked referring to her question from earlier. “Did I do something wrong?” he said glancing to her.

She could tell she’d caught him off guard, using his real name and she knew both Dean and Sam well enough from following them, that Dean was about to over react and getting a rise out of him was exactly what she wanted. She loved messing with humans like Dean she had way to much fun. He grabbed her wrists and her skin burned where his skin burned and that caught her off guard.

She flicked her eyes to his wondering if he was feeling the same sensation, but she quickly changed her expression to fear, like she was scared of him, that he’d actually caught her, it was scary how good of an actress Addie was.

"I don't know who or what you are…but how do you know my name?" it fell silent and he had given her a chance to speak only she didn’t take it, because she knew if she stayed silent it would piss him off. "Answer me now." he said in a hush tone and it was then she finally wiped the damsel in distress look of her face and smirked wickedly. "Who..are..you?" this time he raised his voice and he finally released her wrists.

“Now that’s no way to treat a lady, is it Dean?” she pouted her bottom lip. “I’m the ghost haunting the Nester’s house.” She said sarcastically “Boo.” She said holding his eyes, like they were the only two people in the restaurant.

The truth was she knew more about Sam, Dean, and Skylar then she’d like to know. She knew Dean was a playboy, who didn’t take anything seriously. Sam was the brains, he was always the sweet caring one, then there was Sky who was more like a little sister to Addie and she honestly missed her.

“Don’t be so stupid.” She finally spat “He said your name you idiot…” she said gesturing to Sam “How else would I know it.” She rolled her eyes and shook her head. “You were more than a little obvious when you were starting at me just a few tables over.” She said harshly.

She hated the way he was so quick to judge her. He knew then that Dean would never actually let her hang around Sky if he knew what she really was and she had to admit that hurt a little. It was like a slap in the face.

“Plus I’m a friend of your sisters.” She finally said standing up “All of you Winchesters look similar and she had a brother names Dean…it’s not hard to put one and one together.” She said standing up. “Your sister’s Sky right?” she said, but answered before he had the chance “Thought so, you really should learn to think before you act…ass hole.” She said heading for the door.

He felt small sparks of electricity when she rested her head on his shoulder, but he ignored them. He felt like he should wrap his arm around her and pull her closer, because that would feel right, but he knew he couldn’t.

"Not everyone can understand the unexplained. They cope with that by tormenting those that are different from them." Cas had surprisingly caught on to her hint, because he already had a feeling she was different, yet he still didn’t know what was so different. He could feel her power, but couldn’t place it. "I have a angel that follows me around? I highly doubt that. I would have seen them by now. Anyway, thank you Cas."

She may not want to believe it, but it was the truth there was another angel’s essence that surrounded her, yet there was a block on it. He couldn’t tell who it was and no one could sense her which meant she was fairly powerful and she blended with the humans, whoever she was.

"Do you think that Dean will ever let me help you guys?" she asked pulling him from his thought and he knew the answer, Dean had confided in him several times. "I can take care of myself. I used to take karate when I was younger and there's no way anyone could touch me. I know that you don't believe me..I mean..I'm really small for my age but I promise you..I won't be in the way or anything. Sam's been coming to me for some time to help with cases..not that Dean knows about that. He'd flip." Cas let out a small laugh at what the young girl had said.

“I’m sure you could take care of yourself. You are a Winchester after all.” He smiled down at her. “But it takes a little more than Karate to take down a demon.” He sighed. “Just give Dean time, eventually he’ll let you…he’s just worried, you and Sam mean a lot to him.” He said honestly. “And I’m sure Sam’s trying to convince him.” He said gently before standing up.

He actually rather liked spending time with the youngest Winchester alone, but he was drawn to her more then he should be and staying to long probably would only make him tempted and so he figured going to find Sam and Dean would be the best for now.

“We should probably find your brothers, will never find that ghost if Dean finds a place that sells pie.” He smirked down at her offering his hand to help her up.

Addie stayed back from the group a bit mostly because she was trying to avoid conversation with her father and she knew if they had a moment alone, he’d start his fatherly questions and she just wasn’t in the mood for that. She watched as Sky talked to Dean a bit before finally Dean spoke.

"Okay. Me and Sam are going to go in and talk with the family. You three stay out here. I'm serious. Cas, you're in charge. Make sure they don't do anything stupid." she scoffed, like Cas could really stop her if she wanted to do something.


When Dean passed her she felt that familiar heat between them, the same heat she’d felt in the restaurant and she fought back a shiver, what was it about him that both drove her crazy and excited her, she pretended not to acknowledge him as he passed, but that was a little hard to do. Finally the three of them were alone and she knew Sam and Dean wouldn’t get much information from the Nester’s, because they didn’t normally open up, but they loved Addie to death.

"Why don't you all join me? It's going to be a while before they come back out." Addie glanced to Sky and gave her a soft smile.

“I’d love to kid, but you know the Nester’s there not going to open up easily, Dean may not think so, but they need one of us or there not going to get anywhere.” She sighed. “I’ll go save the day, you should head home babe, you might want to spend more time there then you think.” She said softly.

“Lacey.” Cas spoke up again. “Don’t go in there, it’ll piss Dean off.” He spoke in a stern tone.

“Perfect, I’d like to see him get pissed off at me, maybe I’ll put him in his place.” She smirked as she headed towards the house.

She gave a soft knock on the door and an older women answered the door giving Addie a sadden smile. Addie didn’t hesitate as she hugged her, before the women invited her in. Taking her hand and leading her into the dining room.

“It’s so nice to see you Addalaceia, It’s been such a long time dear.” She said sadly “It’s lonely without you or Sky coming around to play with Jas.” She said with a shuddering breath. “The FBI is here, don’t you think it’s a little late?” she asked from the kitchen, before coming back into the living room handing Addie a cup of tea.

“Yeah, I’ve been busy and well you heard about Skylar’s mother.” She smiled thanking her with a nodded for the tea. “I do apologize though, I should have never stopped coming around.” She said softly. “Everyone says Jasmine’s haunting you and Mr. Nester.” Addie said holding the older women’s eyes.

“Lace.” Addie heard a little girl whisper her name causing her to look around and stumble over her breathing, she knew it was Jasmine.

“Did you hear that.” Addie said looking at Mrs. Nester.

“Hear what Dear?” she replied and Addie quickly shook off what she’d just heard as Sam and Dean came into the room.

"You don't mind coming with me, do you Castiel?" Sky asked and Cas wanted to tell her know, but he didn’t have the heart to so he simply nodded as a reply watching as Sam and Dean headed towards the house leaving the two of them alone.

"Why don't you all join me? It's going to be a while before they come back out." Sky said and Castiel thought about it for a moment, he glanced to Addie as she said she was going to go help Sam and Dean.

“Lacey.” He called after her using the nickname he’d always used “Don’t go in there, it’ll piss Dean off.” He spoke in a stern tone.

“Perfect, I’d like to see him get pissed off at me, maybe I’ll put him in his place.” Cas sighed running his fingers through his dark hair. He should have known Addie and Dean wouldn’t get along, because they were both stubborn and set in there ways.

After she disappeared into the house he glanced to Sky, being left alone with her yet again and that was beginning to become a routine today. Not one he minded, but he wasn’t so sure it was the best idea, he wasn’t honestly sure how long he could fight his feelings, he was an angel he was pretty good at it, but there was something different with Sky.

“Well then, looks like they’ll be in there a while, shall we head to your house?” he asked with a smile.

She wasn’t going to stop, she didn’t want to hear whatever stupid thing was going to come out of his mouth whether it be about her and Sam, Her and Cas, or her and Sky. She just didn’t want to hear it, because he wouldn’t listen to her and she couldn’t reason with him, so she headed straight for the stairs but he stepped in front of her blocking her path and stopping her.

"So, sticking around this time?" he asked and she just rolled her eyes crossing her arms over her chest. "So, is there a reason you kept your true self from my sister? Aren't you supposed to be her friend? Or were you just pretending?"

“Dean, I wasn’t lying to her. She never asked and I never brought it up.” She said holding his eyes. “I wasn’t trying to hurt her, I was protecting her.” She sighed “You don’t want her involved in the shit you have to deal with just as much as I don’t want her involved in my world…it’s complicated and you should know that.” She said trying to get him to understand.

She pulled down the sleeves of her sweater, a cool breeze picked up and she hated that they were talking about this outside, because Exodus was probably watching and he’d use her words against her later.


"Look, Addie…You'll need to talk with Sky in the morning. She was heartbroken." She sighed running her fingers through her dark hair, nodded, letting him know she’d talk to her and she hoped they were done talking, because she hated the way he made her feel, even just standing there with him.

She could feel the heat that radiated between them. She was drawn to him, like she’d been drawn to Sammy, only with Dean it was stronger. There was more of a pull to Dean then there ever had been with Sam. But, she didn’t want to admit it, she ignored the feelings.


"So, Cas is your Dad. Care to elaborate? " He asked and she looked up to realize he was a little bit closer and his eyes were fixed on her he wanted answers and she rolled her eyes.

“Yeah, you could call him that.” She explained. “He’s not my biological father, but he might as well be. I don’t remember much from when I was human. But, Cas has always been there and so he’s my father as far as I’m concerned.” He shrugged.

"So..you and Sam? how'd that come about?" she rolled her eyes tired of his questions. She was explaining more to him then she should have and she didn’t owe him an explanation for her and Sam.

She pushed past him heading up the stairs towards there condo “I’m done with this interrogation D.” she said nicknaming him. She paused once she got to the top of the stairs and turned back to face him. “There’s a lot about Sammy you don’t know.” She smirked tauntingly. “Just like there’s a lot about me that your never going to know.” She winked as she continued to the door of their condo.

"It's all right." she said and he sighed watching her as she got up and made her way over to the couch sitting next to him. Their bodies grazed and it sent small sparks of electricity through his body. The longer he spent around her he found it was harder to suppress his feelings. "I..had a nightmare." he sighed, wishing she didn’t have to deal with that kind of stuff. "But..please, I don't want to talk about it." He nodded understanding.

Silence fell between them as she lend against him and he lend back on the couch getting a little more comfortable. He let her lean against him and he wanted to wrap an arm around her and pull her close, he didn’t know why but he just felt the need to, but he didn’t think she’d want him to, so he just let her lean into him.


"Are you feeling better now? You said that you had stuff on your mind. It must have been all terrible things to cause you to drink so badly." he sighed it hadn’t actually been that terrible. I was just a mix of his feelings for her and why Addie was acting the way she was. "You know what? I think that I want something to eat. Are you hungry? There's no way that I'm going back to sleep and I've found that food is the best way to stay up."

He chuckled and nodded “That sounds lovely.” He smiled as she got up and headed into the kitchen and he got up and followed after her a few moments later sitting at the table, he watched as she bounced around the kitchen cooking and the two of them carried on casual conversation until finally she set a plate in front of him sitting down at the table next to him.

"Here. My mom taught me how to make these. If you want syrup, you'll have to get it. I can't eat it so I normally don't get near the stuff." He smiled to her thanking her as he started eating and the food was amazing.

“You’re a great cook, Sky.” He said happily having finished the food fairly quickly. The two of them talked for a bit longer until Sky was finished.


"Castiel, you should really get some rest. You look exhausted. You can't sleep on the couch. You'll get no rest. Come on." He really wasn’t that tired and he watched as she stood up taking his hand and pulling him up from the table and he sighed giving in.

“I’m really fine, Angel’s don’t really sleep.” He tried to argue the fact as she pulled him towards her room. “You’re the one who needs rest.” He said in a concerned tone.


"Don't argue with me, Castiel. The bed is huge and I doubt that I'll sleep at all. You'll thank me later." she led him to the room and he followed her not that he really had a choice. Once inside she closed and locked the door behind them before tucking a book back into her bag and crawled into bed. He raised a brow as she turned her back to him expecting him to get into bed with her. "Don't make me get back up. If you're worried about Dean, you can stop worrying. The door is locked and he won't come in."

She said as if knowing he was hesitant to get into bed with her. It didn’t matter if the door was lock, Dean would still kill. Hell if he was in bed with her Sam would probably kill him, but he didn’t want to argue with her and he had a feeling if he got into bed with her, she might be able to sleep better. She he slipped off his trench coat and hung it of the end of the bed frame, before slipping into bed.

“You should really get some rest two Sky” he whispered. He knew her would be able to sleep, because he’s bee to worried about Dean knocking down the door, but he didn’t tell her that. “If you need anything, I’ll be here.” He said letting her know he wasn’t going to leave but he wasn’t going to sleep either.

Once Addie slipped back inside she was surprised to find that not even Cas was up in the living room, but she wasn’t complaining, because she really didn’t want to deal with anyone at the moment. She was exhausted and she just want to pretend things were normal and sleep for a couple hours. She slipped into Sam’s room silently, crawling into bed next to him.

He felt her crawl into bed, with her back facing him, he warped an arm around her pulling her close and oddly enough she found that Sam’s touch wasn’t as overwhelming as Dean. She quickly shook the thought. There was no way she was falling for the other Winchester. She pretended to fall asleep quickly when in reality it had taken her a good hour of fighting off thoughts of Dean.

Sam had slipped out of bed sometime leaving her alone and when she finally woke up, she could hear her father and the guys as well as Sky taking. She threw the blankets off, setting her feet on the ground before stretching. She yawned rubbing the sleep from her eyes.

The door opened and Sky was standing there and she looked up at her giving her a soft smile and she pulled her feet back on to the bed, crossing her legs. She pat the bed in front of her, telling her friend to come sit with her. She could tell Sky had a lot on her mind just by the way she’d pulled her into a hug and Lacey hugged her back.

"I'm sorry that I didn't stay with you last night. It was just alot to take in." She finally said. "Addie..why didn't you tell me?" Lace sighed, there were a million reasons she hadn’t told her.

“I understand, you have nothing to apologize for hun.” She started, she knew she owed her an explanation. “I didn’t tell you because I was protecting you. The more you know the more at risk you are.” She sighed holding her friends eyes. “Especially when your with me, It was just better keeping it from you, but I never lied to you, if you would have asked me, I would have told you.” She smiled leaning over and kissing her forehead. “You’re like a sister to me babe, I’d never purposely hurt you.” She said softly.

Castiel hadn’t slept he was honestly too scared of Dean finding them, but he laid there with her while she slept, hoping that she was finally getting some rest. He hated that he’d been so stupid and she’d seen him like that, he didn’t understand why he cared so much. He didn’t care if Dean or Sam saw him that way and Addie had seen him like that before, but he cared that Sky saw him like that and it really bothered him.

Once he’d sensed Dean was there he finally left Sky’s side and vanished. He reappeared somewhere in town he wasn’t sure where it was, but he was hungry and he need to clear his mind. He wasn’t sure how much he’d eaten, how much coffee he’d drank, or how long he’d been there, but the sun was coming up just as he was finishing up. He sat there for a while longer finishing his last cup of coffee.

He really liked Sky more then he should, it wasn’t right he knew that. Not only because she was so you, but because she was Addie’s sister, not that Addie or Sky knew that. He was the only one who knew that, because he was the only one who knew who Sky and Addie really were. He sighed as he stood up paying for what he’d gotten before heading back to the condos.

He reappeared in front of the Winchester brother’s, catching a glimpse of Sky slipping into Sam’s room and he figured it was to talk to Addie, he sighed running his fingers through his hair, he’d spent the better part of the morning trying to sort out his feelings for her and he’d gotten nowhere.

"And just where have you been?" Dean’s voice pulled him from his thought as Cas Sat down at the table with the two brothers.

“Eating. Lots…of…pie.” He smirked “Without you.” Cas shrugged knowing that would irritate Dean, but he didn’t really care at this point. He heard Dean ask Sam what they should do, seeing as they had the condo for another day and Cas thought for a long moment. “Well it’s the first day of the New year, don’t you humans celebrate or something, shouldn’t we celebrate?” he asked looking between the two of them. “We could just make dinner here and hang out?” he offered.
