Marina quickly stood and left the class, heading immediately to the library where she knew Cas would be. She found him and quietly approached. "Uh…" she said quietly.

He jumped, when she spoke, quickly hiding the book "hey, did Mrs. Preskott send you? I'm fine, if she's worried, truly." he rambled

"She kinda did. After Jackson got a few more shots in," she muttered the last part. She noticed his book and tried to change the subject. "Whatcha reading?"

He glanced down at his feet and handed her the book, slightly embarrassed "Its called 'one rose, one love.'" he glanced up at her.

"Is it good?" she asked, returning his gaze.

he nodded "yea it is,…you should probably head to class, I'll be fine on my own, don't worry about me." he said with a smile

"I'm not leaving here without you," she retorted, smiling as well.

He schooched over in the couch and patted the seat next to him "no wonder you never get any work done,"

She pressed her lips together tightly and sat beside him.

"what, am I wrong?" he smiled and continued to read his book, glancing over at her every so often

"No," she muttered, folding her hands tightly in her lap. Stupid…

He laughed a little and sighed "I could stay here forever." As long as I'm with you "he didn't threaten you again did he?"

"No," she replied, partially the truth. "Don't worry about me – have you had enough time to calm down?"

He nodded "yeah, I think I'm good." he stood from the chair and put the book back on the shelf, waiting for her before locking the doors behind him. "And for the record, It's my job to worry."

"Is it now?" she asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Yes yes it is." he glanced at her sidelong and smiled "who else is going to put up with your wildness and antics?"

"Antics?" she repeated, acting offended.

"Yes antics!" he said, though not being able to recall anything she did that would qualify as antics

"Name one 'antic' thing I've done," she challenged.

"Flicking people with a water whip, which just so you know, freaking hurts like hell."

She grinned slyly. "Oops…"

"yeah oops." he smiled at her with the same childish playfulness as when they were kids

"Hey, it's not my fault you got in the way that one time!" she protested, shoving his shoulder.
