Alex laid in his bed, staring at the ceiling. A laptop, some folders, and scattered paper surrounded him. He let out a sigh.
“I’d recommend sitting with them, but don’t let them talk shit about witches or Cas,” Rain said from the other side of the room, in the process of removing their makeup. “They should know better than that at this point.”
“Of course.” He kept staring at the ceiling. He could definitely defend Cas’s honor; he’d sing his praises to high heaven, if he believed in heaven. Oh, Cas… He missed him so much already. Their date couldn’t come any sooner. Where would they go? What would they do? Ah, it didn’t matter. As long as he was with his pequeno brujo…
Snapping fingers took him out of his thoughts. “Do your homework,” Rain said sternly. Alex pouted at her, but sat up and grabbed his laptop.

instead of sleeping and resting up for the next day as he had promised, Cas spent the next hour fixing up the little care basket he had made for Alex and worrying himself half to death. He prayed the reverse love potion would work, or at the very least lessen the effects so that Alex could focus on what was important rather than solely his infatuation. Cas paused from arranging the tinsel strings he had buried up from his stash of trinkets and keepsakes. As much as Cas wanted all this to be real and true, he couldn't help but be reminded that all this wouldn't have happened without the love potion. Maybe they would have confessed, and maybe they'd be dating months down the line, maybe Cas would have been brave enough and come out of his shell to have told Alex his feelings first, or maybe, and most likely, none of this would have ever happened without a little push from some magic. It took essentially tricking Alex into drinking a love potion for Cas to be comfortable enough to admit his feelings for the vampire had had a crush on for ages, something everyone seemed to have noticed except to the person whom it mattered most to.
He set aside the basket, promising himself first thing in the morning that he'd finish sprucing it up before the date. And the first thing he'd do on the date was give Alex the potion. What happened afterward would simply have to play out, but at least the emotions, whether good or bad, wouldn't have the effects of a potion. All he knew was that he loved Alex. He wanted to be with him even after the potion to prove as much. He only hoped that Alex would give him another chance.
Cas made his way to bed near midnight, barely letting himself sink in before he was overtaken by blissful sleep.
Only to be awoken by his phone going off across the room a few minutes later. He groggily got up and stumbled over to find his glasses and phone by his desk.
"Rise and shine Cas! we gotta prepare for today!" read the text from Jeckle. Cas sometimes wondered if his friend was somehow a mutant of the vampire species, seeing as he was always so energetic in the early hours of the morning.
