Fix Us (Book 2) A Supernatural Story

17- Not Your Fault

Season 9 x 10

Calliope and Dean, make a hunters funeral pyre for Kevin, and Dean places Kevin's body on it and sets it on fire. The two of them stand there, not saying a word, watching the fire. Once they head back inside the bunker, they still hadn't said a word, and Dean had complete shut down from Calliope. Walking into the bunker, they head to the main area, where Kevin's things were all still on the table. His half eaten sandwich, his notebooks, and his cell phone were all on the table. Dean looks at the spot Kevin had died, and then looks at the table, picking up the phone, he looks at the lock screen and sees a picture of Kevin and his mom. Dean tosses the phone across the room, then he tosses everything off the table, knocking the lamp off the table. Dean then picks up the chair and he tosses it, letting all his anger out, as he leans down on the table.

"Dean... Dean" Calliope says as she slowly approaches him.
He looks at her, and she sees the anger and pain in his eyes, and she wraps her arms around him, holding him close. He leans his head down on her shoulder and starts to cry, "We will get him back, we will get him back" she tells Dean.

"I should have... I should have never agreed to this" he says as he looks at her.
"You did what you thought was right. I should have picked up on it sooner, Dean, I am so sorry that I didn't clue in. I mean I was up there among the angels, I should, I should have realized that he wasn't who he was" she says to him.

"No... no this isn't your fault, this is mine" he says, and she places a hand on his face, and wipes the tears.
"No, you are not doing this, you are not blaming yourself. Dean, you have always looked out for Sam, you have always done what you believed was best for Sam, and you had no honest idea that we were going to be tricked by an angel. You were desperate, maybe I should..... I should have taken my grace, and I could have healed Sam." Calliope says to Dean.

"No... no...no, you had just come back to us, and things were messed up. We can play the what if game all night long, but there is other things that are important right now" Dean says to her. "I'm gonna call Cass" he says to her.
"And tell him what?" Calliope asks him.
"Just to come, and that it is important" he tells her.
"Ok, I will start to gather the weapons bags" Calliope says to him, and he just nods as he walks away from her.

Dean and Calliope start packing up their bags full of weapons, "Dean? Calliope" they then hear Castiel say and look over at him.
"Cass" Dean remarks, "Ah, look at you all suited up and back in the game, heh" he says as they see Castiel back to wearing his trench coat and suit.
"I... I came as soon as you called. I would.." he stops talking as he sees the mess around the room. "Dean, Calliope, what happened? What's wrong?" he then asks them. Dean then leans his hands against the table, and Calliope looks at him, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder, as he looks over at Cass.

"You might want to sit down Cass" Calliope tells her.
"Okay" he responds, concern on his face as he looks at the two of them before taking a seat at the table. Dean and Calliope sit down across from him and Calliope places her hand on Dean's arm as he goes to tell Castiel what happened.

"Sammy was dying, what was I supposed to do?" Dean says to Cass.
"You let an angel possess him?" Castiel asks.
"He told Dean it was the only way and he... we believed him. Cass I didn't know some of the angels up in heaven, so I thought he was... was good like you told us" Calliope says to him.

"Now, Sam's gone. Kevin's....." Dean stops, and Calliope squeezes his arm, trying not to let her tears fall thinking about Kevin.
"Dean, I'm sorry" Castiel says to him.
"Yeah, well, 'sorry' don't pay the bills, does it?" Dean says as he then stands up, Calliope letting go of his arm. "Sure as hell ain't gonna bring Kevin back" he then says as he has his back to Calliope and Castiel. "We gotta find this son of a bitch" Dean then says.
