It's been two months since Castiel stormed out agian, dragging his daughter with him. Anna had gotten sick, not deadly sick but sick enough to worry Castiel to have him send her to the hospital. Anna is currently in Wichita in Via Christi Hospital recovering, well, she's more sitting there in the hospital bed more than anything, I wouldn't call it recovering. Today they are suppose to get results on why she is feeling how she is.

"Um...Mr. Novak?" Dr. Netta said, her voice loud enough to make Castiel's head shoot from Anna's lap. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to continue.

"Yes?"

Dr. Netta smiled at the both of them, she seemed rather excited. "I have some news."

Anna smiled back, "What is it?"

"You're pregnant."

Castiel stood up, trembling from fear more than anything. "She's...what?"

"You're going to be a grandfather, Mr. Novak." Dr. Netta explained, handing Castiel a cup of water she had just poured, figuring this kind of reaction to news like this.

"Oh my god..." Anna mumbled, subconsciously placing her hand on her stomach.

"H-How far along?"

"About four months. I'm surprised no one noticed until now."

Castiel shot Anna a cold glare. "That one night stand wasn't it? This is why you shouldn't listen to Dean, that asshole. Now you're pregnant and we have barely any way to take care of it and I don't even really know how to take care of a kid, I mean, let alone a freakin' baby. What the hell are we going to do, Anna? I..." Castiel trailed off and sat back down, buring his face into his hands.

"I'm sorry Dad...I'm so sorry..." Anna mumbled, crying into her hands.

Dr. Netta looked at them both sympathetically. "There always is adoption."

"No, I'm not putting it up for adoption. No way in hell, that's not even an option." Castiel said, gaining his confidence.

"Dad, how are we going to look after it? I can't take care of a child at sixteen! You can't handle a baby, period!"

Castiel took Anna's hand in his own. "We'll find a way, we always have."

"Okay...I just, I don't want them to have a miserable life."

Cass smiled, "Life with me can't be miserable! I am a well-toned, sexy party in a human! Plus, just think of how much more miserable they would be in an adoption home, or sent with abusive parents like Samuel? I won't let it happen, Anna."

"You're right, like usual." Anna paused, looking at her stomach. She thought she was just getting fat, but there's apparently a kid in there. "Hey, can't we go back and live with Sam and Jess?"

"Um...uh...I..."

"I forgot, Dean's probably there. Can I call and ask though?"

Castiel nodded, "Yeah, just don't tell them the news."

Dr. Netta smiled at the two now excited people and left with a wave. Anna picked up Castiel's cell phone and searched for Sam or Jessica's contact, finding Sam's first. Winchester picked up after the second ring.

"Cass?"

Anna smiled, "No, this is Anna."

"Oh, is everything alright?" Sam asked, his voice become softer and soothing.

"Everything's perfect. But, uh, we kinda need a place to stay...permanently."

"Just come down to the bunker. Dean's gone, he moved out two months ago with...Lisa."
