Sastiel Love Week Day III (Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics) Alpha!Sam and Omega!Cas. Office AU.
Castiel was not trying to court the most attractive Alpha in the office. Especially not after that same Alpha’s recent breakup with his not so wonderful ex-mate.
He didn’t have a crush on Sam Winchester, no he just enjoyed his company it was nothing more than that, he assured himself.
He was already a complete and utter mess at this job anyways and as much as he didn’t want to face it he’d only kept going because Sam was so wonderful and kind, not to mention sweet.
Castiel sighed and tried to organize his scattered papers, he was halfway through that particular task when he was interrupted, again.
He sighed and picked up the phone, took notes that the caller requested and made a mental note to ask Sam later if he was available for a meeting next Thursday. He sighed, straightened his glasses and huffed, this secretary job was not suitable for him it seemed.
Castiel began to reorganize his desk again when the door opened suddenly, the room filled with the sharp scent of and Castiel turned his head to find Sam standing right in front of him.
“Are you okay?” He asked the taller Alpha, trying not to get distracted by his scent. He was truly unprofessional, he commented mentally.
Sam huffed, his face softened once he saw Castiel, Castiel tried not to blush. Sam’s sunflower eyes were warm and soft, despite the obvious sadness behind them. He adjusted his bag and smiled softly.
“My ex-mate, Gadreel, is just making my life a living hell again,” Sam said, Castiel was at a loss for words.
“I’m sorry Sam, you don’t deserve that,” Castiel said, as he winced internally how awkward that sounded.
“Thank you, Castiel,” Sam said softly, “The worst of it is over, I can deal with it I just have to deal with it for now,” his eyes full of sadness. Castiel didn’t know what to say so he nodded and looked at the floor.
Sam made his way into his office and closed the door quietly behind him
He wanted to do something kind, even though his heart screamed at him and he stopped before his mind could imagine impossible fantasies.
Sam wouldn’t want to mate with something like him, but he could still cheer him up. He thought at his desk for the rest of the day. The day was quiet after that and Castiel devised his plan, he hated to see Sam so unhappy and brooding.
He had to do something.
Every day from then on Castiel left notes. Each one with with small gifts attached. Things like flowers to decorate Sam’s office and other small pants he could take care of easily. Castiel was even able to find a beautiful print that he could hang on the wall.
Sam seemed to cheer up visibly and Castiel’s heart warmed, he still greeted the Alpha every morning and he even his tone seemed much brighter.
Castiel didn’t leave his name, there were plenty of Omegas in the office who could possibly be leaving Sam’s gifts. Though he wasn’t much for participating in gossip, he was chuckled softly when he heard the small hushed conversations around the office trying to figure out who was sending Sam the mysterious gifts.
Sam cheered up more and Castiel was pleased, one day he saw him carrying one of the small succulents home. The next day after that, Sam is holding the beautiful sunflower Castiel bought from the newspaper vendor outside their building.
Several weeks later. Sam is already doing much better, he and Gadreel are “officially” broken up, as Sam tells Castiel one morning in passing.
Castiel finds an unusual note on his desk, it’s rare he gets notes that aren’t work related. There’s a small flower in a beautiful flower pot, with a small note attached which took the Omega’s breath away as he read it.
Thank you Cas – Sam, Castiel smiled and held the tiny flower to his chest and placed it on the perfect spot on his desk.

(I am sorry for being so late with this! I hope to have all of them sent by today or tomorrow! I hope you like it💙)
I doodled Tiny!Dean + bandaid with a ballpoint pen. He’s tinier know, hope he’s not still shrinking! (Sam’s probably got the tiniest cut he’s trying to bandage…)
Sam knew he shouldn’t be here that it was forbidden for him to travel into the mortal realm but he couldn’t stay away.
Not from him.
Hidden in the tree Sam parted a couple of leaves as a soft smile appeared on his face as he watched the mortal known as Castiel.
All around Castiel were human younglings listening in awe as the man weaved a tale of a brave prince, his loyal knight and the dragon they befriended as they battled evil after evil saving the innocent no matter what the cost to them personally.
That is what had drawn Sam to Castiel the great story teller, he had always been interested in humans even though it set him apart from the rest of his kind well all but his brother Dean. But Sam didn’t care he knew that humans were not perfect and long ago sought to destroy all those of magic but surely they have changed.
“Mr Castiel?” One of the young girl’s asked raising her hand.
A soft smile appeared on Castiel’s face one that made Sam’s heart flutter. “Yes, Jo?”
“Do you believe in magic and creatures from your story?” Jo asked interest in her eyes and in her voice.
Castiel’s smile turned a little sad as he glanced at the tree that had Sam hidden in and Sam ducked down a little more afraid that he had been seen.
“I do believe in magic and creatures such as fairies, dragons, mermaids and so on. All myths and legends have some truth to them. I am afraid that long ago humans feared what was different and drove them away.” Castiel explained to his group.
The other small blond Ruby let out a huff, “Well that was stupid of them. Do you think that they will ever come back?”
“I do.” Castiel said with such certainly that Sam felt his heart beat all the faster. “We just have to show them that we have changed and would happily welcome them.” Castiel’s voice rose a little bit as he said his next part, “Who knows there might be one right here now say a fairy who loves to come to our story time and listen in to the stories. And maybe someday they will show themselves to us and tell us their own tales letting us get to know them and them to know us.”
Sam felt his wings flutter yes he would like that and held onto the hope of someday close to his heart.
Sam was so worried and excited, the nerves bubbled in his stomach and his made his hands shake but at the same time he was trying his best to keep calm. He didn’t want his date to think he was a nervous mess.
Sam had never imagined he would actually be able to get to this point. He thought Castiel didn’t care much for him, or even knew who he was, but he had accepted his offer for a date happily and, even Sam thought naively.
Sam thought about the future, maybe if this went well they could even go on a second date and then start dating officially.
You’re foolish, Sam thinks to himself, but even the chance that this might work out, that they might even have a second date is enough to keep him focused the evening.
Sam had prepared everything and he thinks, momentarily, that Castiel would think he was trying to hard or overbearing. But at the same time he might would think it was sweet and charming. Should he bring the flowers? Was that too much?
Sam stared frustratingly at the flowers he’d gotten earlier that day. He didn’t know what do and he put his head in his hands and sat on his bed.
He had exactly two hours to decide and he just wanted to crawl into bed and pretend the entire thing was a dream.
Still ran his hands over his face, sitting here would only make things worse right? Plus he didn’t want to disappoint Castiel or, worse, or stand him up.
He showered, got dressed in a the nicest shirt he could find. Sam grabbed his phone, tucked his wallet into his back pocket and tucked the bouquet of flowers under his arm and headed towards the restaurant.
***
Sam meets Castiel at a local restaurant and he could hardly believe his eyes when he sees his date.
Castiel was wearing a wonderfully bright sweater that matched his blue eyes and Sam was at loses for words almost instantly.
With nervous shaking hands Sam handed the bouquet to Castiel and watched his bright light up even brighter. Castiel stared shocked before his face broke out into a huge smile. Castiel thanked him and stared graciously at the bouquet of flowers.
They sat and Sam’s nerves quickly bubbling away as they were able to easily talk. The food was excellent for diner food and Castiel listened to everything Sam said with interest he rarely saw from anyone. Even when he talked about his love for cooking healthy food and his crime shows. Castiel smiled brightly the whole time and even talked about his favourite tv shows. The conversation was easy and just peaceful, and Sam found time flew by until the sun was setting.
They paid for dinner and Sam stood near the door, he had to walk home and he wasn’t sure how to end their date. Despite how well it went he was tongue tied but thankfully Castiel spoke up.
“Thank you Sam, I enjoyed this night a lot,” He said with another sunshine smile and Sam’s heart soared.
“I think we should go out another time,” He clutched the bouquet of flowers to his chest gratefully.
Sam smiled, he thought he misheard but he nodded rapidly, he didn’t trust himself to speak.
Castiel smiled, “I’ll message you when I’m free,”
Sam nodded, “Sounds great,” He was trying to settle his breathing because this seemed like a dream.
Castiel left and Sam let out a breath he wasn’t realized he was holding. He smiled brightly to himself as he walked home hardly believing this evening had been real.
Awwww!!!! Sam is so anxious!!! I feel you buddy!!! Like, why did I decide to do this I must have been crazy? This is so cuuuuttteee!!!! 😀
