Castiel was ready to fly off and blow up the entire island of Eden if he had to, but something stopped him, or father someone. His wing was pulled and he found himself sitting on the building’s ledge. His wings slowly disappeared and he sat glaring at the angel as she ranted about why he shouldn’t murder the bastards. You’d think she was his mother. Case frowned send got to his feet as the angel continued to talk and he folded his arms. He was sick and tired of people telling him what to do and not do. ”Are you finished?” he said flatly once the angel had stopped talking. He took a few steps forward and his eyes pierced into hers. ”I’m fed up with taking orders from people I could care less about” he spoke with a quiet yet cold tone that could strike fear into anyone with common sense. ”What I do and why I do it is none of your business, and if you ever use Abigail as an excuse for me to listen to you one more time I will do the council’s job for them and finish you off myself”. Case was beyond angry. If it were possible he would have been steaming. He had half a mind to destroy Cordelia right then and threw, but deep down some part of him knew she had a point. He couldn’t take on an entire each full of humans all on his own, nor did he want to. ”Anything else you want to add?”.
Leon kept his face buried in the man’s shoulder, until Roman moved away, only to reolace the hug weigh a kiss. Though they had kissed many times before, this one felt the most real. Unlike before, Leon didn’t hesitate. He snaked his arms around Roman’s neck and pressed himself closer. He didn’t know how much more time they had before they were found out, so every second counted. Leon slowly backed himself against the wall, tempted to just jump on Roman and just be carried away to wherever the man wanted to take him. One of his hands slowly drifted down his chest as he continued to kiss him, only to pull away slowly a few seconds after. His cheeks were glowing with embarrassment and he was a tad out of breath, but he didn’t care. He didn’t care about anything anymore except for the person in front of him. He knew Roman would have some smart comment or think of some way to tease him, but he didn't care about that either. He looked up at the man, the tiniest of smiles very much present on his face.
Cordelia was alright up until Cas threatened his life. And at this point she was just mad at him. Mad at him for being so reckless. For not thinking about the consequences and still finding the will to scream at her. She would bring Abby up again as many times as she felt like because she wasn't scared of Cas anymore. Hew as just pissing her off. So she was going to let him know that. "You are a child. I gave you emotions and you throw tantrums when something doesn't make you happy. You wanna kill me" She put her wings away to show that she wasn't going to do it. "You would be doing me a favor. I am sick of you and the council treating us angels like we are worthless! I didn't ask to work for you! I didn't ask to be infected! I would have rather died if I knew the outcome of survival was to deal with the likes of you!" Cordelia at this point knew she was getting herself in a heck a lot of trouble. "You and your father aren't so different after all then I guess."
Roman held Leon tightly around the waist. This was a new feeling. A brand new feeling that the older male would not mind getting used too. And their kiss lasted for a long while and when Leon pulled away Roman caught him smiling. It wasn't a big smile, but it was smile. Roman has been trying to get the younger male to smile for the past couple of days. It was nice to actually see it. He didn't know what to do. The smile on Roman's face just got bigger and he kissed Leon again. Then he pulled back and picked Leon up bridal style. "You know how long I have been waiting to see you smile." He walked with Leon towards his bedroom. He just wanted to lay with him. Whether they did anything would be up to Leon. He shut the bedroom door and put Leon down. He kissed Leon again. "Can you smile again for me please?" He asked after he moved his kissed down the younger males jawline.

Castile's eyes raged as Cordelia spoke. She complained about how she never asked for any of this, and what did she think that he volunteered. The last straw was her comparing him to his father. Casteel felt a jolt or rage course through him and his hand flew up to smash into Cordelia's face, but something happened. Something very strange. His hand stopped, just before it hit her. As f it had a mind of it's own. Cas knew that wasn't the case though. His subconscious wouldn't let him hit her. Why? He didn't know that yet. The threat to kill her was only a bluff, which Cordelia seemed to take seriously, but she was wrong. Case was nothing like his father. Cas wasn't a murderer or a heartless monster. Not anymore at least. He slowly let his hand fall to his side and looked at the woman in front of him with a mixture of pain and rage. "Who's the child now?" he said, his tone bitter and tense. "You didn't ask for any of this... well newsflash, neither did I" he was no linger yelling, or even raising his tone. He was just... fed up. "You think asked to be ordered around by someone who claims to be a father, yet only talks to me when I'm "useful"?. No one, not even the angels had any idea what it was like between Castiel and his father behind closed walls. He was done arguing, it was nothing but a waste of time. "And just so we're clear, if I were so much like my father like you say I am you would already be dead".. This wasn't a threat, it was a fact. if it had been his father instead of Casteel that Cordelia had messed with, she would have been dead the moment she walked into his office.
Roman was smiling over the fact that Leon smiled, but how could he not? He had dumped all his worries send just focused on Roman and honestly it felt... amazing. Amazing enough to make him smile. Leon admired Roman's own smile as he was picked up off the ground. "Oy, I cam still walk on my own you know?" he grumbled, but honestly didn't really mind. Being in Roman's arms was the best feeling. Roman began kissing his jaw and asked him to smile again. Leon hesitated, but let the smile form n his face again, this time a tiny hit bigger. His hands slid up Roman's arms and gently cupped his face, holding his face lose so they were looking at one another. He maintained he smile for a few seconds before letting it turn into a slight pout. "Don't get used to it" he warned half jokingly before he slowly pulled his face down for another breath taking kiss. For the rime being he completely forgot about the council, about Eden, even about Cordelia. It was just... Roman. That's all he knew now.
There was no more yelling. Cordelia was done yelling, it was hurting her throat. But she almost got attacked. Comparing him to the monster that was his father might not have been a good idea. But there was some form of restraint that was shown with Cas. It seemed that her boss was also done yelling. He was honestly just tired of his father's shit and he didn't want to be a part of it anymore. Especially not after what was done to Abby. The angel felt bad for screaming at Cas. He didn't do anything. She was angry and he was angry. But now they have a common goal. Stop his father from getting to anymore humans. The head angel spread her light grey wings. They needed to get back to Eden. There was going to be hell to pay. Cordelia flapped them a few times. "When we get in trouble. I'm denying everything." That final line was to pretty much say that she wasn't going to rat him out or get him in more trouble than necessary. At this point he had to be one for the Angel Rebellion. The head angel took off back towards angel.
Roman couldn't believe what was happening right now. Leon was actually responding positively to everything the older male was doing. He even smiled again when he asked. Then Leon initiated another gentle kiss. It was very nice. Roman was happy that Leon was happy. It was as if the hardship they just had faced never happened. Roman wrapped one of his arms around the younger males waist. He pulled him closer enjoying the moment they were in. The older male pulled away to remove some clothing. He was getting kind of hot. Roman removed his own shirt before removing Leon's. "No more excuses?" Roman was only teasing. He leaned down and kissed Leon's neck.

Castiel was out of breath and out of things to tell at the angel, and she seemed to be tired of arguing as well. Why were they arguing? Sure they didn't really like each other, but while they wasted time arguing their common enemy used that time to infect more humans like Abigail. Maybe he cared a little bit about the humans, but if he was going to do anything it was for Abby and no one else. Cordelia stated that she'd deny everything that had happened between them and the humans, which Castiel was already planning on doing, and she took off. Cars let out a frustrated sigh. It looked like he was going to have to be a part of this so called rebellion if he wanted anything to be done about his father send his father's minions. He'd make sure to tell Cordelia that he would only join the fight with the condition that he called the shots. He had just finished taking orders from someone he despised and he wasn't about to go back to taking them. It only made sense, since he knew the council best, he knew how to break them from the inside. The silky red wings stretched outward and with one flap he took off toward the island.
Leon was at a loss for words, not that he needed say anything. Roman was just breath taking. Leon hadn't felt anything like this in, well, ever. He'd have to hide from anyone that showed interest, and eventually they all just gave up. But for some reason Roman stayed. Maybe he saw something in Leon that Leon had yet to see himself. He'd have to have a talk with Cordelia about all this. "No more excuses?". Leon wasn't sure if Roman was serious or not, but he decided to give him an answer regardless. He used a small fragment of his angel strength for a second and flipped them both over, pinning Roman to the bed and he basically straddled him. A microscopic smirk played on his lips as he leaned down and placed a kiss on the confused man's lips. "No more excuses" he assured him.
Abigail shifted a bit into the body that was next to her. In her mind she was hoping that it was Cas' body she would be waking up next too. But she knew that he wasn't here. He had somewhere else to be. The person in her bed was her brother. The brunette slowly opened up her eyes to see him still asleep. She smiled softly. He was such a good brother. Calling their friends and sleeping with her so that she wouldn't wake up alone. Abigail would return the favor, but she needed food. Abigail kissed her brother's cheek before crawling out of bed. She looked over her brother to make sure that she hadn't woken him from her movement. Grabbing her phone, she skipped out of the bedroom towards the kitchen. Abby opened the fridge to see her brother's crepes. He must have made them this morning for Cordelia. "Yum.." She pulled them out and popped them into the microwave for a few seconds. Didn't take long to heat them up. Her gaze went to her phone. She should thank Cas since she never did. While sitting down, ready to eat the crepes, she sent a quick text.
[To: Cas]
[MSG: Thanks for helping me get better.]
Then she went back to eating the crepes.
Cordelia landed in Eden and flapped her wings a few times. She didn't wait for Cas to land before she headed towards her room. The last thing she needed was to linger around him longer than necessary. The council and her didn't get along. If it started to look like her and Cas were friends then it would ruin the whole rebellion. She walked by Leon's room expecting him to be there, but he wasn't. Then she remembered that she had gotten a text message earlier. When she read it, it didn't really make any sense. But all that mattered was that he was alive. "Note to self. Scold Leon later." she muttered to herself. Cordelia walked into her room and threw her phone down onto the bed. Just then two very low council members walked into the room. They shut and locked her bedroom door. "No please. Do come in and make yourself at home. Coffee or tea?" She asked looking at them. They were not amused, but neither was Cordelia. She dropped down into her chair. "What do you know about the cured human?" She raised an eyebrow. "Why would I know anything about that? Angels can't cure humans." She said. The council members weren't playing any games. "No games Cordelia. Head Council Man is no pleased. Tell us what you know." One of the council members slammed his hand down on her night stand. Cordelia was sick of being threatened and she stood up. "You want me to tell you what I know. I know that if you threaten me one more time, head councilman can find himself two new council members." The council members looked at each other before advancing Cordelia. One grabbed her and the other started plucking feathers from her wings one by one. She screamed. "Let me go you bastards! I don't know anything!" They didn't believe her.
Fade...
This was the second time they had done this in his room. But this time just felt completely different. It was like the first time. Roman hand his hands wrapped around Leon, keeping him close. His thoughts went straight to the last time they did this. Leon left. And even though the younger male said he wasn't leaving. Roman felt as if he let go, Leon would walk away. But he kept quiet. He didn't want to ruin the good moment they were having. He kissed the top of his head and sighed in content. He could stay like this all day long. "I hope the second time was much better for you as it was for me." He teased a little.

Aidan was still sound asleep. He stirred a bit when Abigail got up but quickly settled down again. It wasn’t until about twenty minutes later that he finally woke up. Looking around and realizing Abby wasn’t in bed anymore told him that she was probably feeling better. He sighed in relief and slowly sat up. He’d have to remember to give her the medicine before she went to bed that night. He got to his feet, stretching a little, wondering why his bones seemed to hurt so much. He inky brushed it off as a bad sleeping position and slipped into his shoes, he smelled the grapes as soon as he stepped out into the hallway and smiled a little. At least she still had an appetite, something Aidan still seemed to lack. He walked into the kitchen and headed for the espresso machine. ”I take it you’re feeling better” he said, already knowing the answer. It was obvious by just looking at her. Looks like he was worried to death for nothing.
Castile landed safely on island ground and headed to his mansion. The entire place just seemed so quiet, so… deserted. Castile walked through the large doors of his equally large estate and headed straight for his bedroom. He needed to take a breath. Everything with Abby and then that fight with Cordelia had mentally exhausted him. Unfortunately his plans were ruined when a familiar face stepped out in front if him. Castile immediately glared at his father and shiver his hands in his pockets. ”Come to insult me some more?” he questioned but his father hardly gave him time to finish talking. ”I know you did it° the man said flatly and Casteel immediately knew what he was talking about. Still he thought it best to play the dumb card. ”I’ve done many things” he replied but the man didn’t look amused. ”Don’t play me for a fool, Castiel.” the man scolded, and Casteel smirked the slightest bit. ”I don’t have to play you for anything dad, you do that all on your own”. The man took a step towards Case and he could almost swear he saw a hint of anger in that emotionless face. ”You’re the only one besides me powerful enough to cure a human without support from another council member” he continued to scold as he moved closer. ”It was the same girl you were seen with more than once, and you’re telling me it’s just a confidence?”. If the man was capable of anger, his gains would have been bursting by now. ”I’m not telling you anything” Cas said plainly before attempting to walk past his father, but a loud smack to the face stopped him. He had insulted him, he had diminished him, he had done with him as he pleased but never in his life had his father layed a hand on him. Weather it was out of rage or pure instinct, Castiel immediately responded with a punch of his own. This was far from over.
Leon rested quietly in Roman’s arms. They had done this once before, that same day even, but somehow this time felt different. Leon gave everything he had to Roman in return for everything Roman had given him and it was as if it was their first time. "I hope the second time was much better for you as it was for me.". Leon huffed and rolled his eyes, but he silently agreed. ”Maybe” he mumbled, not wanting to give in completely. ”My ass seems to disagree though” he muttered as a joke. He felt fine, in fact more than fine. He had more than half a mind to stay on the mainland. Never go back to Eden and just hide away with Roman, but they’d come for him eventually. Not to mention Cordelia would be alone. He couldn’t do that to her. Speaking of Cordelia, he hadn’t replied to his message. Maybe she was busy with that human guy. Leon let out a small sigh as he turned his face and place a soft kiss on Roman’s jaw. An idea occurred to him. He wanted to make things up to Roman. Without a single word, he got up and began pulling on his pants. [/center]

Abigail continued to eat the crepes patiently waiting for either Cas to text back or for her brother to wake up. But neither were happening as soon as it should of. It wasn't long before she finished her food. Getting up to wash the plate, she heard movement from not so far away. Which meant Aidan was awake. He came into the kitchen and went straight for the espresso. That was good because Abby could use a good espresso right about now. She missed coffee. She stopped drinking it as often as she used too because of dance. It sometimes affected her. It was safer to just have few cups of coffee than to dance less. Abigail turned to face her brother with her arms crossed. "Much better. Could you make enough for me too?" She let out a tiny sneeze and rubbed her nose. This must be what is left of her cold after Cas got to her. "So...tell me about Cordelia. I don't even remember the last time a woman other than our mother stepped foot in out house." Abby missed talking to her brother so she was going to start up a conversation. And she would answer any questions he asked about Cas.
Cordelia was fighting not to cry as she watched her feathers accumulate on the ground. "I will end you both!" she shouted, her voice was breaking. They didn't believe her. And they just plucked away. The angel bit her bottom lip. "No games. We will help you restore you back to full health. Just tell us about the cured one." Cordelia wasn't broken. Not yet. She would never talk. The angel looked at the council members and then smirked. "I hope you two rot in the deepest pits of hell." One of them grabbed a whole bunch of feathers and yanked them out at once. Her scream was high pitched and they through her to the floor. Cordelia wasn't going to just let them get away with causing her so much pain. She always kept a weapon in her room. She never knew when the gods were going to come and get. Reaching near her bed she grabbed a metal baseball bat. Standing up she started swinging at them. She got one of them in the head and the other on his leg. She just kept at it. The bat collided with their faces more than enough times. Finally they got up and left her room. "And don't you ever fucking touch me again!" She slammed her bedroom door shut. Cordelia was going to get in so much trouble for this. Dropping the bat on the floor, she sat on her fed. There were so many feathers on the ground. She wouldn't be able to fly for a long while. Cordelia wiped the tears from her face and put her wings away. There was no point to having them out.
Roman was happy to hear that Leon was alright. There was a lightness to his voice that let the older male know that everything was okay. He couldn't believe that he had done this twice in one day with the same person. He laughed at his sex joke and Roman moved his hand down to rub Leon's butt. "I'm sorry. Didn't mean to be so rough." He winked at Leon and then chuckled. Roman wasn't actually sorry for anything he had just done with Leon. It was amazing and he would do it again and again and again. There was a soft kiss on his jaw before Leon got up to get dressed. Roman raised an eyebrow and was mentally freaking out. Leon couldn't leave him again. "Where are you going?" his voice slightly panicked. He thought he had Leon for good. Roman didn't want to lose Leon twice in the same day.

Aidan assembled the pieces of the espresso machine and began putting everything his place as Abigail asked him about Cordelia. He laughed a bit at her comment and shook his head. ”What do you want to know?” he asked, having no idea where to start. There was so much to say about Cordelia. She was amazing, beautiful, kind, smart, funny… the list could go on and one. And he had only known her for a few days. If it wasn’t for that tiny little fact, he would have already asked her if she wanted to become something more serious. Like boyfriend and girlfriend perhaps. But he didn’t want to scare her away. Even though she seemed to really like him, he wasn’t going to be pushy about it. Aidan watcher as the coffee bled through the filter and his mouth was already watering. He opened the cabinets and pulled out two small cups, fillip g each of them Jo when the coffee was finished. He then walked to the table and sat them doth down, taking a seat across from Abigail. ”Ask me anything and I’ll answer” he said, taking a sip of his coffee.
Castiel’s father stared in disbelief. Cas had never hit him either and something told him that didn’t sit very well with the man. He was expecting some emotionless comment about how much of a disappointment he was and how that was disrespectful but he got something completely different; another blow to the face. Cas stared in shock as his father rolled his wrist send glared back at him. ”You’ve always wanted to fight me haven’t you son?”the man asked and the fact that he used the word son made his skin crawl. ”That’s right daddy, so why don’t we settle this right here eight now?” and before his father had a chance to blink another blow was given to his face. The man stumbled backwards then charged full speed into his son, knocking him to the ground and adding another right hook to rhea face. Castiel would have rather be dead than let his father have the advantage in the fight. He quickly kicked him FC and ran into him full force, spreading his ling red wings for an extra push, and slammed him up against the nearest wall. The cheer force of the blow made the entire mention shake and a few of the nearest windows shatter. His father struggled to get up but Cas didn’t give him the opportunity. He grabbed this man by the collar and three him against the furthest wall, causing another mini earthquake. He wiped his face with the back of his hand and furiously walked over to him. Ready to break a few more teeth.
Leon was concentrated on outing on his pants and shirt that he didn’t notice the look of worry on Roman’s face. When the man spoke, Leon jerked his head up to look at him and could immediately tell he was worried about Leon leaving him once again. He realized how it could appear that way and he quickly moved to fix it. He walked over to the Roman and placed a quick kiss n his lips. ”I’m going to show you what a real meal looks like” he said, lightly making fun f the breakfast Roman had made for him that morning, which was surprisingly delicious. Leon only hoped roman had enough in his fridge to cook something descent. He often cooked for Cordelia and himself, so he had quite a bit of experience. Without a word, Leon left the room and headed to the kitchen. He began searching for ingredients as soon as he walked in. It wasn’t much, but it was his way of apologizing to Roman for the way he had left him that morning.
Abigail crossed her legs under the table and watched her brother light up at the mention of Cordelia. It was adorable. She sat patiently. Waiting to be served the marvelous coffee that her brother was brewing. She could already taste the coffee and it wasn't even in her hands yet. Her attention went back to Cordelia which was the topic of conversation. Abigail wanted to know everything that her sibling knew. It wasn't to be nosy it was just that she hasn't seen him date anyone in a very long time. It's nice her brother is getting out there. Abby never dated for the fact dancing was her only love. Well before she met Mr. Perfect. Abigail nodded when Aidan handed her the cup. She sipped it slowly and was glad that her brother's coffee mix hadn't changed. Now shew as allowed to ask anything she wanted. She thought for a moment as she set the coffee back down on the table. "How did you guys meet? That's kind of a cliche question, but I really wanna know." Abigail let out another tiny sneeze and then sipped her coffee some more.
Cordelia was in so much pain. She laid down on her bed, her back a bit sore. The angel couldn't wait to take the council apart. They didn't deserve to run the planet. Abusing their power. Taking advantage of the humans that adore them. If it was possible, they would all rot in hell. She was going to personally see to it that they all got what they deserved. Now she wasn't as strong as the higher up Gods, but she wouldn't mind fighting them with a metal bat in hand. Even a guy to take out their wings like they did hers. She pushed herself up off the bed and stood up. But there was a force that made the ground shake. Grabbing the wall for support, she wondered what could be so powerful to moved the earth beneath them. The ground shook again. This was no coincidence. Gods are fighting and she knew exactly who it was. Cordelia wasn't going to go in there for two reasons. One. It would be suspicious if she walked in there to help someone everyone knows she doesn't like. Two. Cas' father would rip her wings from her back the moment he lays on her. Castiel is going to have to deal with his daddy issues on his own. Cordelia walked out of her room and down the hall to where the angels congregate. They needed to now about what was going on with the Angel Rebellion. It was still happening. But now there was a new player in the game.
Roman let out a sigh of relief when Leon explained where he was going. The older male didn't know what he was going to do if Leon said he was leaving him again. He might just break down and cry. Two rejections from the same person all in the same day. It would have to be a new record. Roman gave Leon a moment before he got up to get dressed himself. He sauntered towards the kitchen where Leon was getting to work. "There was nothing wrong with the food I made you. I certainly don't remember complaining." Granted Leon didn't look like he wanted to be with Roman then. Again the older male was only teasing. "What are you making anyway?" There wasn't much in the fridge so he was wondering what the meal was going to be. Roman was hoping that it was going to be good.
”How did you guys meet? That's kind of a cliche question, but I really wanna know." Abigail seemed to want to get right down to the point, but he didn’t mind. It had been a while since they talked about anything and Aidan did love talking about Cordelia. ”We ran into each other on the side walk…. Well, she ran into me. Nearly knocked me over” he said with a chuckle, remembered how awestruck he was when he first saw her face. ”She dropped her apple, so I offered to buy her lunch” he explained with a light smile. He wanted to continue talking about Cordelia, but he wanted to give Abby her turn. He was also curious about this mysterious guy. ”What about you and Cas?”.
Castiel had his fair share of punches and blows to the face, but for every hit he got he made sure his father received double. The mansion walls were beginning to crumble from the impact of being smashed with fists and bodies that summed to be made out of iron tons. They were both out of breathe now, but neither of them wanting to stop. Cas flung his fist towards his father once more but it was stopped by at outside source. Two in fact. Two of the council members had come to his father’s rescue. ”You called for back up? What am I too much for you to handle, father?”. The council members scowled at him, but he brushed them off as if they were insignificant, which to him they were. ”We took care of that perky angel” ins of them said, and Cas raised an eyebrow. He examined the bruises on their faces and arms curiously. In a second or two he tapped into their heads to get a glimpse of what had happened and he couldn’t help but smirk. ”It looks to me like she took care of you”. The two weren’t very amused by his comment, one of the even threatened to hit him, momentarily forgetting who they were speaking to. Castiel was tired of the disrespect. He grabbed them both by the collar and lifted them up off the ground. It would have been much more enjoyable if they could show fear, instead of those apathetic ugly faces. ”Have a little more respect for your higher up” he growled before tossing them aside like rag dolls and turning his attention back to his father. ”Are we done here?” he asked but walked off before the man had a chance to answer. He had to find Cordelia and get some answers. Like when the hell was this rebellion going to start.
Leon was alone in the kitchen for a minute of two before Roman came walking in with his gorgeous smile and perfect abs. Leon hadn’t fund much to cook, but what he had found was enough for two. He diverted his attention from the man’s perfectly carved body back to the ingredients in his hands. ”Aren’t you nosy? You’ll have to wait until it’s finished” he teased, feeling incredibly light weight. He hadn’t been able to play around like this with someone other than Cordelia in who knows how many decades. It felt too amazing go let it go. He watched out of the corner of his eye as roman watched him, while his hands continued to work. He didn’t want to be distracted, but what he wouldn’t for Roman walk up next to him and flirt and tease like he had when they met. He had rejected it then, but he wouldn’t dare to do that now. Every moment with this man was precious.
Abigail thought it was cute how Aidan told the story. He seemed to so happy talking about her. And that sounded like something Aidan would do. Even though the other person crashed into him, he still offered to buy them lunch. Her brother was just way too nice to everyone. But Abby didn't have room to talk. She would apologize twenty times over. And then some. She sipped more of her coffee and then Aidan brought up Cas. A blush came to her cheeks and she put the cup down. She met Mr. Perfect in the most embarrassing way ever. "I was lost in the music of my headphones. So I started dancing and then I tripped. Cas saw it and helped me. But then I tripped again." Abigail sipped more of her coffee. "It wasn't my finest moment." If Abigail could try and be less awkward with Cas she would have. "I saw Cordelia this morning which means she stayed the night. So should I wash the bedsheets." Abigail was only teasing, but she was assuming her brother had gotten intimate.
Cordelia took a little longer than usual to get to the meeting room. The pain in her back was dreadful. The council was gonna get it as soon as she felt better. The head angel walked into the room and she watched the angels. They were talking about the curing of the human and the earthquakes. Cordelia couldn't believe news traveled that fast. It had been a while since she had been before them. She had been a bit busy making sure the final piece of her plan work. Which so happened to be Cas. They all started rushing at her with questions and demanding answers. The angel just had her feathers pulled and she was done being yelled at. "Everyone sit down and shut the hell up." The angels did as she asked and she sat in the nearest chair. Taking a deep breath, she looked at all the angels. "Yes a human was cured. No I don't know who it is." That was none of their business. The less they know the better it will be when the council comes to question them all. "And the major part of our plan worked. Hence the earthquakes." The angels were completely confused by how those two tied together. Cordelia wasn't going to explain it. "We have a new member of our rebellion. And if you don't treat him with the up most respect you will be a reason for one of those earthquakes." Cordelia smiled as politely as she could. But only she gets to mess with Cas. Everyone else had no right.
Roman leaned against the wall and watched Leon cook. More like he was watching Leon. Once you see a person naked its hard not to think about them that way. And as he watched Leon, he was completely forgot that he was waiting for food. He didn't need food anymore. Roman was more than enough to satisfy him. He smirked and walked closer to him. "I think you should cook more often. You look really sexy doing it." He kissed the younger male's shoulder before wrapping his arms around him. "So Chef, after your done with lunch can I help you with dessert?" Roman was just being a cute kind of flirty now. He was just happy Leon was still here.
Aidan would have loved to talk about Cordelia all day, but he wanted to know more about this Castiel guy. He seemed descent enough, but people could appear to be one thing and be actually be something completely different. Aidan chuckled a little at his sister’s story of how they met. It sounded just like something that would happen to Abigail. Regardless, he was grateful that Castiel helped her. They seemed to be taking turns asking questions, but Abigail’s current question made Aidan’s cheeks turn the lightest shade of pink. ”I can wash them, thank you” he responded, letting her know that she was correct in her assumption. And now he was thinking about Cordelia again. He wondered how long it would be before he got to see her once more. He decided it was his turn, and hoped that Abby would be honest about this question. "Was Case the friend that you stayed with last night?".
Castiel walked with purpose. He located Cordelia over in the angel’s headquarters. He had decided to join them, but he had a few conditions and he wouldn’t take no for an answer. He should have stopped somewhere to change first. His nice black suit was ripped, his shirt half opened and stained with dirt and possibly blood, his hair a mess and his tie was completely gone. There were a few bruises on his face, but nothing too awful. He had done the majority of the hitting. His adrenalin was still racing, mixing with every single emotion he had felt up until that moment. It seemed like it would storm, but it was only the lightning cause by the sheer amount of energy coursing through his veins. He reached the angel’s location and pushed open the large doors with a loud boom that seem to come right on time with the cracks of lightning that continued to follow him. Cas was now like a volt of nothing but emotions that he had yet to learn to control, he walked up beside Cordelia, ignoring the odd noises coming from a Lt of the female angels and turned to look at her. “if you hit me with a bat you can forget about me helping you”
Leon decided the concentrate on the food he was cooking in case he accidentally burned himself. It was almost time for dinner and he wanted to give Roman a nice meal. He wasn’t sure how many home cooked meals roman normally had considering the small amount of things he had in his fridge. Then, just as if Roman had been reading his mind, the man came up behind Leon, placing a kiss on his shoulder and wrapped him up in a light hug. Leon could already tell his cheeks were pink. He had to slow down his cutting to make sure he didn’t chop off a finger. "So Chef, after your done with lunch can I help you with dessert?". He wasn’t sure what kind of dessert Roman was referring to, but there was only one kind of dessert Leon wanted. He let out a small huff as he slowly stopped cutting. ”Fine I’ll leave dessert up to you, but you better make it good” the last few words ere almost a whisper as he turned his face towards Roman’s. Something told him he wasn’t going to get much cooking done.
Abigail giggled at her brother. She didn't even know that he could change a different color. Rarely does she ever embarrass him. She finished the coffee in her cup and she placed it down. This back and forth question thing was actually quite interesting. When Aidan asked about where she was last night, she really wished she hadn't finished the coffee. Looking down at the mug, she nodded. "But we slept in separate rooms." That was only added in because she wanted her brother to know that her innocence was still intact. Abigail stood up and put the cup in the sink. "So are you and Cordelia officially dating. You don't make crepes for just anyone."
Cordelia ran her fingers through her hair. "We got a God on our side." Everyone gasped and then started to panic. Others were rejoicing. There were some setbacks that could happen with a God on their side. Like he could just go back to the council. The head angel already knew that it wasn't happening anytime soon. Cas was definitely on their side. Speak of the devil, lightening cackled as he walked through the doors. Some of the female angels giggled like school girls. Cordelia glared at them and they shut up immediately. That had to be the most annoying thing to witness. A Cas fan club. Cordelia over looked him and it was clear who the winner was. “if you hit me with a bat you can forget about me helping you” He must have been referring to the Council brats that attacked her. "Don't mess with my wings and you will forever be in my good graces." She stood up and stretched her back a bit. The angels just kind of looked at Cas in confusion. Cordelia rolled her eyes deciding an introduction was necessary. "Cas. Angels. Angels. Emotional Cas." She only added emotional so that the angels would know that Cas had feelings. "So do you know how much trouble I'm in yet? I am kind of just waiting to explain myself." The question was directed at Castiel.
Roman should just let Leon cook. He was so determined to make a better meal than the breakfast from earlier, but Roman was being a bit needy with Leon. The older male just wanted to hold and kiss him. He didn't want Leon to lift a finger unless they were in the bedroom. Leon agreed to allow Roman deal with dessert which was more than fine with him. He was a sucker for sweets and he had more than enough ingredients to make something good. But he was also thinking on the dirty side especially because Leon looked at him. "Oh it will be." He practically whispered that before he kissed Leon softly. He held it for a moment before taking a step away. "I want to let you cook, but at the same time I would rather you be doing something else with your hands." The older male winked, but left the kitchen. He was going to let Leon cook.
When his sister admitted to having stayed the night at Castiel's house there was only one thing Aidan wanted to ask. However before he had the chance to, because his sister knew him so well, she answered the question without him having to even ask. He sighed in relief and finished the last sip of his coffee. He knew Abigail had to do it eventually, but he wasn't prepared for that. He didn't think he ever would be. Luckily, she was an adult and she was responsible so Aidan didn't have to worry too much. Aidan got to his feet to get more coffee and Abigail questioned him about his and Cordelia's status. He remained silent for a fee seconds, having no idea what to answer to that. "I don't know" he admitted. There's nothing he wanted more than to ask her, but he couldn't just ask something like that over text. "I haven't asked her….but next time I see her I will" he said now determined to do so. He sat back down and looked at his sister curiously. "What about you and Cas. He sure treats you like you are"
Cordelia got the female angels to shut up and then introduced him, not that he needed introduction. Every god and angel on the island had to know who Castiel and his father were. What he hated about that is that they often lumped them together, as if they were the same person. We'll Cas refused to be like his father, and he was going to prove that to anyone that ever said he was, including Cordelia. There was still a bit of resentment towards her because of that. "Alright everyone shut up and listen" he spoke up as the angel's were beginning to mutter amongst themselves again. He turned to face Cordelia slightly since this would be directed to her, but the angel's needed to hear it. "If we're going to do this, we do it my way" he began. He wasn't interested in getting his way, but considering he knew the council inside and out he thought it best if he was the one to call the shots. That and he refused to take orders. "One, I'm in charge and what I say goes." he said as he looked at the angels and then Cordelia. "I know those bastards inside and out, backwards and forwards so no one makes a move without running it through me first. Got it?" the angel's immediately agreed and it felt really good to have people listen to him for once. "Second, I don't want to hear any complaining or backing out. No one in this room will be in as much trouble as I am. If you think they'll think twice before killing me then think again.". He knew that once the council found out what was really going on, even his father would be on board for getting rid of him. "And third, take bring out your wings" he said as he turned to Cordelia, fully expecting some sort of protest.
Leon felt the shivers run up his spine from Roman's touch and words. The man kissed him for longer than necessary, but it still wasn't enough for Leon. He wasn't going to admit that though, and Roman left the kitchen before he had the chance to say anything else. He had to concentrate on the cooking or else he'd never get done, and the longer he took the less time he could spend with Roman's lips. There was still a light tint of pink on Leon's cheeks as he placed all the ingredients in a large pot to make a nice tomato sauce, and the boiling pasta in the other. Making pasta had always been one of Leon's specialties. Well, cooking in general had, when he was still human, but he hadn't been able to cook anything in ages. He was surprised he still even remembered the recipes. After a short wait the pasta was nice and soft and the sauce ready to eat. He drained the pasta and prepared it with the sauce, adding a small amount of cheese to each of their plates and set them on the table. He had also made some garlic bread which he pulled out and placed in the center. Now for the drinks. Leon opened the fridge and immediately knew what to get. He pulled out the gallon of chocolate milk and poured each of them a glass. Once everything was set he walked out and over to Roman, holding a hand out for him to take. "Come on, I'm hungry".
Abigail couldn't believe Aidan was going to get a girlfriend. It was going to be nice to have another girl around here. And Abby wouldn't have to always take care of her brother like he always take of her. Two people watching Aidan means less stress. Abigail was beyond excited for Aidan's relationship. His brother returned the question and she blushed a little. Aidan said it seemed Cas treated Abby like they were something more serious than friends. The blush on her cheeks deepened a bit. Casteel hadn't said anything so she has no idea. "I mean he kissed me once.." She muttered. That didn't mean they were together. "But he never said we were together." Abigail would like it very much if they were together. "I'm not going to push it though."
Cordelia didn't sit down when Cas commanded, but she didn't speak. She listened to him demand stuff from all the angels. It was clear that most of the rules were directed at Cordelia. The head angel had a hard time taking orders in general. It wasn't a personal thing between her and Cas. But if Cas thought she was going to do everything he asked without some form of complaint. She was never good at obedience. "Second, I don't want to hear any complaining or backing out. No one in this room will be in as much trouble as I am. If you think they'll think twice before killing me then think again." Cordelia is pretty much in the same boat. They had just attacked her no more than a few moments ago. Killing her wasn't far from their agenda. Cas asked her to bring out her wings and she raised an eyebrow. "Look leader. If you hurt me, I will hurt you." Cordelia had weapons everywhere. These pesky Gods were everywhere so the weapons had to accommodate for that. Cordelia let her wings out and flapped them a bit. They hurt like hell. The angels in the room gasped at the sight and she glared at them. Cordelia hid her wings so that the angels didn't feel the need to pity her. And here she was getting pity. "And this is why I beat them senseless."
Roman laid down on the couch in the living room. He was waiting for dinner to be ready and he didn't have much else to do. It was weird having someone cook for him. Aidan and Abby would do it sometimes, but he usually went out if he really wanted food. On average Roman ate about one home cooked meal a day. Usually it was breakfast because he always made sure that he had a lot of protein. He grabbed his phone to text Aidan.
[To: Dan]
[MSG: Guess who has a personal chef!]
Roman was only kidding about Leon being his personal chef, but he was just extremely happy to have Leon. Especially since the last time he texted Aidan, he was sad. That was when Leon came over to say that dinner was ready. He smiled and took hold of Leon's hand. The food smelled amazing. He stood up and followed him towards the table. "It looks really good. Thank you." Roman sat down at his end of the table and was beyond grateful for the chocolate milk as a drink. Leon knew him so well. The older male took a bite of the food and felt like it was heaven.
Aidan was happy too, mostly because he was convinced that Cordelia liked him as much as he liked her. He just had to make the first move. Abigail slowly turned into a tomato at his question and he couldn't help but to smile. "He kissed you?" he repeated, rising a brow. He wasn't sure if he was happy or sad about that. This guy better not be toying with his little sister. He turned to face her and leaned against the counter. "If he kissed you then you then he better take responsibility " he said, taking another sip of his coffee. Before he could speak again, his phone buzzed. He pulled it out and read Roman's text, smiling a bit.
[To Ro]
[Hey where can I get one of those]
Immediately after he hit the send button, a thought occurred to him. It couldn't be. He decided to ask, he couldn't take the curiosity.
[To Ro]
[Wait….is it who I think it is? ]
Castiel almost felt bad for the angel. Okay…he did, he felt a little bad for her. In a way, it was his fault. It had been his choice to cure Abigail illegally. But he didn't regret it, not for a second. He turned to the angels and signaled at them to be quiet. "See this….this is nothing compared to what will happen to you if you go act against the council behind my back and get caught. They will not show you any mercy". He was more than aware of what the council was capable of. He didn't think that the angel's had any idea. He turned back to Cordelia and stretched out his hand. He carefully ran it over her right wing, restoring all their feathers to their rightful place and repairing the ones that we damaged. He then did the same with her left wing. After all the feathers were restored, he carefully ran his hands over them again to add a bit of extra strength. "I need my sidekick to be in top shape" he said with a smirk, knowing Cordelia wouldn't like being called a sidekick. But if she was going to fight alongside Cas, she'd have to be twice as string as usual.
Leon led Roman to the table and sat down with him. He waited quietly while Roman took a bite. He began eating too in the meantime. Even he had to admit he did a pretty good job with the pasta. By the look on Roman's face, Leon could safely assume he liked it too. It wasn't a y thing fancy or out of this world, but it was just a gesture to go with what he had to say. He stared at his plate, his fork messing with the noodles, as he spoke. "I'm sorry…" he said quietly, his eyes not leaving his plate. "I didn't meant to hurt you…I just ..not used to this". He felt like he had long since owed Roman an apology. "I'm not used to being liked".
Abigail didn't regret telling her brother that she had been kissed. What she wasn't going to tell him was that Cas was her first kiss. That is a discussion that she definitely didn't need to have with Aidan at this time of night. But her brother had a point about Cas taking responsibility. Abby doesn't go around letting anyone dance with her or kiss her. It was a big deal and it would be nice if Mr. Perfect admitted that he wanted Abby to be his girlfriend. But she can wait. The last thing she wanted to do was rush him and then scare him away. "It's okay really." She moved so that she was back in her seat before her brother. "But if it makes you feel better I will talk to him next time I see him." Abigail has no idea how she will be able to bring it up. She can barely have a normal conversation without getting nervous and stuttering. But for her sake and Aidan's she would try her best.
Cordelia could feel whatever Cas was doing to her wings and it was nice feeling. The angels just watched in awe as the God fixed damage done to Cordelia. She already knows the Council could do so much worse. If any higher up council members got a hole of her, her wings would have been broken. Or possibly ripped off. Not that she would let them just get a hold of her wings like that. She would go down swinging. Cas finished with her wings and she flapped them. No more pain. And they were way more powerful than she was used too. She was going to thank him, but then he referred to her as a sidekick. She glared at him. Just cause he was no longer high up on her death list doesn't mean he won't get a beating. "You're lucky you just healed my wings." She half threatened. It was mostly empty. They were no longer enemies so there was no reason to hurt him anymore. "So boss. What's the plan?" He was in charge. They needed a plan.
Roman continued to eat the pasta. It was fantastic and he wanted the entire world to know that. But then the entire world would want Leon for food. It's best if Roman just kept it to himself. His phone vibrated and he checked it. Aidan quickly caught on to what he meant. He decided to reply after dinner. He sipped his chocolate milk and watched the younger male's expression change. "I'm sorry…" Roman raised an eyebrow and listened to the explanation. Was it not clear that Leon had been forgiven a while ago? Getting up from the table he moved so that he was closer to Leon. Squatting next to him, he forced Leon to look at him. "I forgive you. I have already forgiven you." Roman said with a small smile. Then he thought about officially making Leon his that didn't result in a marriage. "And I want to give you full Roman access, but their is only one way you can do that." Roman was just messing around now. "You have to be my boyfriend."
Aidan wasn't sure what advice to give his sister. He wanted her to be happy, and what she wanted was Castiel. He somehow made her happy. But Aidan wasn't too keen on the idea of his little sister having a boyfriend. He was sure about one thing though, if this man wanted Abby he needed to ale a move. He had no right to keep his sister waiting and wondering. Abigail suggested that she could talk to him about the subject and he nodded. "Good idea, but how are you going to pull that off?" he teased. He was well aware of how flustered his sister became around boys. Even Roman, whom Abigail new fairly well and who would never try anything with her, almost always made her red in the face. "Or, I could talk to him for you" he suggested, having a feeling that she wouldn't agree to that. But it was his job to look after her. It would normally be a dad's job to do this, but since their dad wasn't around, Aidan had the responsibility to look after her. He would gladly talk to Castiel about what could happen if he turned out to be leading her on.
Castiel finished repairing Cordelia's wings, not even earning a thank you from her. He rolled his eyes at her comment and folded his arms over his chest. "You're welcome" he joked and thought about her question. A plan? What was the plan exactly? At this point his only objective was to get rid of his father and keep Abigail healthy, but they would need a plan. "I will.…get back to you in that" he said, turning back to Cordelia. He needed to think if something and fast. The best way would be to break them from the inside, which would be up to him, but he would need help of course. Now the question was how to go about doing that. He had to think carefully. "For now just don't do anything, and by anything I mean don't get yourself in more trouble than what you already are." he instructed, mainly directed towards Cordelia. "I will go make amends with my dear ol' dad" he said, I jetting sarcasm into the last few words. If he was going to break them from the inside he'd have to get back on his father's good graces, unfortunately. His stomach turned in disgust just thinking about it.
Leon kept his gaze on the plate until Roman lifted his chin. Their eyes met and he was suddenly frozen in place. He sighed in relief when Roman told him he was already forgiven. Perhaps Leon knew already, but he felt it necessary to apologize out loud with the right words instead of just implying he was sorry. Roman went on flirting and talking about some nonsense of giving him access and Leon rolled his eyes. He honestly had no idea what the man was taking about up until his last comment. "You have to be my boyfriend.". Leon's cheeks immediately began turning the deepest shade of red and his stomach felt like it was doing back flips. Boyfriend?. He hadn't been in a relationship since he was human, which was decades ago. "Um, I-". Suddenly it was as if he completely forgot how the English language worked. He knew what he wanted to say but the words wouldn't come out correctly. He felt like a complete fool. "I have-" he had to break eye contact or he would never make any sense. "Okay". Not exactly how he wanted to accept, but Roman would get the idea.
Abigail was trying to figure out how she would bring it up. She didn't want to be one of those clingy girls that just wanted to put a label on everything. When Cas wanted to be an item then she would be ready as well. But that defeats the purpose of talking to him about being an item. Abby was confused about this whole relationship thing. She has no idea how her brother does it. "I might not be able to pull it off." Knowing Abby she would just stutter a lot, get lost in his eyes, and completely forget the conversation she was supposed to have. Then her brother offered to talk to him for her. Her eyes lit up. "Could you really!" That would make everything a thousand times better. "Promise you will be nice when you do it." She stated. If Aidan scared Cas away she would never forgive him.
The God. Second Council Member in charge. Head of the Angel Rebellion. And he didn't have a plan. Cordelia would have said something smart about that, but she was playing nice for a few more seconds cause he healed her wings. The angels didn't seem the need to question Cas. Mostly because he threatened them not to. "For now just don't do anything, and by anything I mean don't get yourself in more trouble than what you already are." Cas looked right at Cordelia and she scoffed. No more keeping quiet. "It's partially your fault. And what I was supposed to do. Let them go after they messed with me." The day she did that, the day Cordelia died on the inside. She doesn't let anyone walk over her. Not for anything in the world. Except maybe Aidan. She might let people walk over him if it meant he would be alright. Casteel said he needed to go make amends with his father and Cordelia tried not to laugh at him. He clearly didn't want to do that. Written all over his face. The angels were just standing there and Cordelia needed to get rid of them so she could talk to Cas. "Get out!" The angels took off in many directions leaving the room empty. The head angel looked at Cas. "Before you go stomping in there with a fake apology and a sour look on your face. You need to learn how to control your emotions. Mostly your anger one."
Roman was expecting Leon to be a bit speechless and stutter a little. What he wasn't expecting was for Leon to forget how to use English. It was quite amusing. "Do you need me to hand you a dictionary?" He just enjoyed teasing Leon. They broke eye contact and the younger male managed an okay. He was taking that as a verbal agreement for him to be Roman's boyfriend. He was quite excited and Leon was quite flustered. "I'm going to sit in my seat because you look like a tomato and clearly need some space." Roman kissed his cheek and walked back over to his chair. He quickly settled back down and continued to eat his food. Ro couldn't be happier than he was right now. There wasn't enough words in the dictionary to help him describe this feeling.

Aidan hadn't expected his sister to agree to his proposal, but she did and it made him incredibly happy. She asked him to be nice and he chuckled. "As long as he doesn't give me a reason not to then I'll be nice" he said, holding his hand up and the other over his heart. "Promise" he said, adding a quick smile. He then got to his feet and took his cup to the sink, quickly washing it and hanging it to dry. "So, what do you want for dinner?" he asked as he turned to face her again. She had just eaten his crepes but that wouldn't keep her full for long and it was a little past dinner time. He wasn't exactly hungry either, but he'd cook if Abigail wanted something. "I'm not that hungry but I'll make you something since you're sick" he said as he walked past her to the refrigerator, tapping her nose in the process, and began searching through their merchandise. They didn't have much left. Looks like they'd have to go grocery shopping soon.
Castiel watched as the angels all walked out of the room, leaving hin and Cordelia alone. She went on about how he had to control his emotions and his anger and whatever else she said that he honestly wasn't paying much attention to. He sighed, running a hand through his hair, and looked at her. "You got me into this mess, now you either fix it or deal with the consequences" he said, lightly poking her forehead. He was more than aware that he needed to learn how to use his emotions, but if it wasn't for Cordelia he wouldn't have to worry about that. Of course, he didn't exactly hate having emotions, not all of them anyway. Anger he could do without, but it seemed to be the most dominant one at the moment. Followed by…well, whatever it was that he felt for Abigail. "I'm feeling something towards you right now, it's…what do you call it? …annoyance?". He was joking, mostly, of course. He was annoyed but not necessarily with Cordelia. He was annoyed and irritated with the entire situation. "I know how to handle my douche father, thank you" he assured her. He then straightened up his shirt and suit and bowed towards Cordelia before turning on his heels and walking out. The strikes of lightning had calmed a bit as a result of his anger beginning to simmer down, but it wasn't completely gone. There were little sparks still remaining.
Leon had never felt more embarrassed. He had completely forgotten how to speak or even function. Had he just agreed to be in a relationship? He wasn't sure he knew how to do that anymore. Roman had no idea what he was in for. And then there as the fact that he had to lie about what he was. He couldn't just come out and say 'by the way, I'm an angel'. If anything, Roman would think he's insane. He decided to not try to speak and turned his focus back to the food, his cheeks still little tomatoes. He finished eating in silence and stood up with his plate, taking Roman's as well when he was finished. He had to keep himself occupied or he would spontaneously combust out of nerves and pure happiness. He finished washing the plates and cups in no time and put them up to dry. Now what? He had no idea how relationships worked. What was he supposed to do now? Roman had promised he'd make dessert, but again, Leon had no idea what kind of "dessert" he was referring to.
Abigail watched her brother promise her that he would play nice. Which was more than enough for her. Besides if Aidan didn't like him then it wouldn't matter how she felt about Cas. Family always came first. That was how it worked. Dan had washed their cups and offered to make food. Abby just had his crepes so she wasn't in the mood for much of anything. And that coffee was more than enough to call it a quits for the night. But a little something couldn't hurt. "Do we have leftover tomato soup?" She loved tomato soup. And too have that right before bed would be absolutely perfect. Abigail rested her head in her hands. "If I get sick more often will you cook for me every night?" She smiled clearly joking. Abby refused to stay sick. It was awful.
Cordelia thought Cas was being weird. She only felt that way because he was being oddly nice to her. Well as nice as Cas can be. They had been enemies only about an hour or two ago. But now he was being playful. It was going to take some getting used too. Leon definitely needed to know what was going on. Speaking of which she needed to summon him. They had some stuff to talk about. "I'm feeling something towards you right now, it's…what do you call it? …annoyance?" Cordelia rolled her eyes. "Ha ha funny. You have emotions and now you think you're a comedian." At least the angel knew that they were officially in each others good graces. But if she knew giving him emotions would make her his emotion sitter she would have thought twice about it. The anger one wasn't so bad so long as it wasn't directed at Cordelia. Cas said that he would be able to handle his father and then some sparks of lightening went off. She had some doubts about that. "Just don't mess this up." she muttered as he left. Finally it was her turn to leave.
Cordelia got back to her room and grabbed her phone. Not one text from Leon. Not even a phone call. If the angel wasn't having a relatively good day. She would have flown around to yell at him.
[To: Leon]
[MSG: I don't know where you are, but just know you missed a lot.]
Roman finished the meal and Leon got up to collect the dishes. He hadn't said anything since he had agreed to be in a relationship with Roman. Before dealing with teh younger male, he decided to text Aidan back.
[To: Dan]
[MSG: Yes it is my new boyfriend Leon.]
Then he tossed the phone aside and walked into the kitchen where Leon was currently standing. He wrapped his arms around him and pulled him close. "I don't know why you are so quiet, but its making me nervous." He said looking down at Leon. His voice barely above a whisper. There was no need to be any louder than that. They were pretty closer. "So instead of dessert. Let's cuddle in my room until we fall asleep?" That idea seemed much comfier. Besides. Three times in one day was even too much for Roman. "Sound good?"
Abigail asked for tomato soup and Aidan immediately obliged, turning on the stove and letting the soup heat and boil a little more. "I cook for you anyways". He was usually the one to cook. Not because Abby didn't know or want to,but because Aidan liked to cook for his sister. She loved his food and he loved making it. He leaned against the counter waiting for the soup to start boiling when his phone went off. He guessed it was Roman and he was correct. He couldn't help but smile when he read the text. It looked like everything had turned out well for him. By the way Leon looked the night before Aidan could have sworn he wanted nothing to do with Roman.
[To Ro]
[No kidding! Thus calls for a celebration! And he cooks too?]
"It looks like Roman beat us to the punch" Aidan chuckled, not sure if Abigail would know what he was referring to. He put his phone away and turned back to the soup. Once it was hot her poured some into a bowl and handed it to Abby.
Castiel walked with purpose back to his father's estate. Cordelia didn't think he could keep his emotions under control, well he'd prove her wring yet again. She had been wrong about him many times about many things and this was just one of them. He slowed down his pace as he grew closer to the mansion. How exactly would get get on his father's good side after he had just beaten the crap put of him? This was going to be a challenge, no doubt. He stepped through the doors quietly, taking in all the damage that they had done to the walls and floor. He made a mental note to fix that later. He looked around and his father and hid minions were nowhere to be seen. How was he supposed to get on his father's good side when he couldn't even find him. Cas sighed and decided to make good use of his spare time. He walked up the stairs to his bedroom and immediately started stripping off his dirty and torn clothes. Maybe a shower would help him think of something. Even since he got emotions it's like his mind couldn't concentrate on one thing. It was constantly racing from thought to thought. Cas walked into the shower and let the hot water completely cover him. He would at least have a few minutes to relax before the real war started.
Roman teased Leon about his lack of speaking skills and Leon huffed. How did he expect him to respond to a question out of the blue like that. The male walked up to Leon and pulled him into his arms and he couldn't help but to press his body closer. He liked how Roman's arms felt wrapped around him. He commented on how quiet Leon was and he lifted an eyebrow. Wasn't he always quiet? It's just that this time he had a good reason. He was speechless as to how he ended up having someone like Roman to call his. also, Leon was tired, and Roman's embrace felt warm and comfortable. Without think he leaned forward and rested his head on his shoulder.
"So instead of dessert. Let's cuddle in my room until we fall asleep? Sound good". Roman was such a softie, but Leon had to admit that sounded better than dessert. A small yawn escaped Leon and he moved his head to look up at him. "Fine but you owe me dessert" he stated before taking Roman's hand and heading to the room. Once there he set his phone down and noticed the flashing light. He opened it up and immediately felt awful. He was making Cordelia worried. And apparently he'd miss something.
[To Lia]
[I'm sorry, I'm alright. And you've missed a lot too… I'm at Roman's]
Leon almost didn't add the last part, but he had to tell someone, and who better than his best friend.
Abigail was happy that they still had the soup. It was the perfect food for being sick. She returned to the table and waited for Aidan to feed her. It was nice to have a brother that enjoyed to cook. And who's cooking actually tasted good. Abby couldn't imagine eating horrible food. Of course she would tell her brother if he couldn't cook, but that would be hurtful. Crossing her leg she took the bowl of soup from her brother raising her eyebrow about the Roman comment. She wasn't really in touch with Roman at the moment, but it must have tied into the entire relationship deal. "Are you saying Roman has a boyfriend?" That would be news to hear. Abby didn't even know that Roman could settle down. "Does that mean he will stop embarrassing me?" It was joke of course. Roman lives to make Abby change colors. It was what he did. Endless and pointless flirting to see Abigail stutter and blush like a mad man. Annoying but tolerable. It wasn't long before she finished her soup and took her medicine. Getting up she kissed her brother goodnight and went to bed. Tomorrow she hoped she would feel better so that she could get some homework done. She had been distracted lately.

Waking up the next morning, Abigail felt refreshed and energized. It was like she woke a whole new person. Not a single sneeze that morning. Cas was an amazing doctor. Getting up out of bed with a yawn, she walked to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wake herself up. She had some homework that she needed to get done. School doesn't stop because she met a boy. Abby grabbed her bag and went to the living room. She displayed her stuff and got to work. She stayed quiet so that she wouldn't wake her brother.
Leon was with Roman. The man that he has been trying to avoid since forever. Now they were in the same facility. He was definitely going to have to explain that to Cordelia whenever he decided to come back over to Eden. Knowing Leon, she would have to go to him. The angel decided not to respond. If Leon wasn't begging for help than he was fine. Stretching on the bed, she decided that it was time to get some sleep. Lord knows what nonsense Cas was going to have her do. She would like to get some hours of sleep before that happened.

Cordelia woke up with two shadows over her bed. It wasn't very pleasant shadows either. Blinking a few times, she recognized them as Gods. Not just any Gods. The ones she beat up with a baseball bat. Rubbing her eyes, she sat up. "You know the baseball bat is still in my room. You better have a good reason for being here." She half threatened with a yawn escaping her. It was too early to deal with the Council. She couldn't even deal with Cas right now if she wanted too. But one of them pulled her up and handcuffed her. "Woah. I'm not into kinky stuff." She tugged on the handcuffs, but they only tightened. "You are under arrest. For assault of two council members." Cordelia knew she was in trouble. They started dragging her out of her room and towards the Angel Jail. "Aren't you going to read me my rights?" They didn't answer her. Cordelia was put into her own special cell. It was isolated, guarded. and cold. She didn't have her phone so she couldn't ask anyone for help. Eventually news would get around and someone would visit her.
Roman would happily get Leon dessert some other time. but cuddling was going to be just as satisfying. They got back to the room and he pulled his shirt back off. Crawling into bed, he waiting for his boyfriend to do the same. Then Roman just held Leon. It felt so nice to have someone to hold. They were silent most of the night just enjoying the moment they were having together. Then of course, Roman fell asleep. He was tired due to the emotional roller coaster he had been on today.
Timeskip
The older male shifted slightly. He was starting to wake up, but he wasn't ready for morning. He was enjoying his sleep. Roman moved closer to Leon hoping that he wasn't awake. He didn't want him to wake up and claim he had somewhere to be. Even though Roman did have somewhere to be. He was still enrolled at school and he had a class. He didn't really want to go. Roman pulled the blanket up higher, keeping the couple wrapped up. Although he was waking up, he was staying quiet to keep from waking Leon.
Aidan had gone to bed perfectly healthy. He felt fine, and even the sickness in his stomach had dissapeared, but when he woke up his body hurt a little and he had a bit of a cough. It wasn't anything too bad. Perhaps whatever was left of Abigail's cold transferred to him. He groaned as he rolled onto his back and set up. Letting out a yawn as he stretched, he got to his feet and pulled on a light hoodie. The house seemed a bit cold. He walked out of his room and could hear ruffling of papers coming from the living room. It sounded like Abby was up. He walked into the kitchen and made a fresh pot of espresso. He would need it to get through the day. He poured a nice amount into two cups and headed to the living room. He gave Abigail a good morning as he walked in and sat a cup down on the table for her. "I thought you had completely forgotten you had school" he joked, taking a seat on the couch. A small cough escaped him but he settled it with a sip of coffee.
Castiel woke up refreshed and completely healed, not that he expected any less. A god's body never stayed beaten and bruised for long. He pushed himself out of bed and looked at the clock. He wondered if Abigail was up yet. It was unbelievable how early it was and he was already thinking about her. Not to mention he was thinking about her the night before as he was falling asleep as well. This was all Cordelia's fault. She was going to get an earful when he found her. He couldn't be distracted now of all times. He had managed to somehow make amends with his father, more or less, but the older god still didn't seem too convinced. Castiel would have to play the part of a loyal son that would do anything his father asked. The thought alone made him want to gag. He quickly got dressed in a brand new suit and ran his fingers through his hair. The council had called a meeting the night before and for some reason decided to have it first thing in the morning. Cas reluctantly made his way out of his estate and over to the main council hall where, for the first time in a long time, he was one of the first ones there. His father would have been surprised it that were possible. "Good morning". He had to force his face to keep from looking completely disgusted.
Leon had slept through most of the night like a rock. He woke up once due to a little too much warmth, but after pulling off his own shirt he settled back down next to Roman and fell right back to sleep. Morning came and Leon was still out cold. It wasn't until about thirty minutes after Roman woke up that he began to regain his senses. He could feel Roman's warmth surrounded him and he moved his body closer, even in his half asleep state, and buried his face in the crook of his neck. He smelled so nice, he could have fallen asleep all over again, but his body refused to. He was now fully awake, but he didn't want to move or get up or do anything that wasn't laying here with his new boyfriend. It was still a little odd calling him that, but Leon figured he would get used to it eventually. After several minutes of trying to force himself back to sleep he let a yawn escape him. He hoped Roman didn't have anything important to do.
