Dean was driving down the road in his 67 Chevy impala. He was late for his job at Bobby’s auto and mechanic garage. “God ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ,” he cursed aloud as he sped up ignoring all signs and rules of the road. “( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).” The Impala’s radio blasted as he shot down the road. Even though he knew Bobby wouldn’t care if he was late, he still did. Bobby was like a second ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) to him. His parents lived back in Kansas and he was in beautiful sunny ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). When he finally arrived, he was five minutes late and had thought up the perfect excuse. “Listen, Bobby I’m ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). The traffic was ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and then I saw a ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) so I needed to ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).” He tried to explain. “Quit yet yabberin’ ya ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). I don’t even care if you saw a ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)! Just make sure you get here on time tomorrow,” the man with the trucker hat said as he continued his work on the ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) About a mile or so away, Castiel Novak was with his brother Gabriel. “So, Castiel you ever gonna ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) to Meg?” Gabriel asked his younger brother over fries. “Gabriel, Meg is…. Well you know I ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) her. But I don’t think she’s the one,” the ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) eyed man sighed double dipping his fry in the ketchup. “That’s exactly what I said about that girl from casa ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), and we dated for about two weeks!” Gabriel said taking a swig of ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and flagging down the ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) waitress for a refill.“Gabriel, it’s ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) in the morning, isn’t it a little early for alcohol and discussing your past ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) buddies?”“It’s never too early for alcohol.”“( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)!” Castiel sighed and politely asked for the bill.“( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) , ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) .” Gabriel said heading for the rest room.“Well, that was a cluster ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).” Castiel accidentally said aloud as the waitress came back with the check.“Aw, date didn’t go so ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)?” she asked politely.“No, that’s my brother. He wants me to marry my ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)friend but I don’t think she’s the one.”“My friend… well more like ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) actually had the same problem. Heck, he had a kid with this girl. But they grew apart and it was almost like they forgot about each other...” She said wide-eyed using her hands to dramatize her point and story.“( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)h.” Castiel said handing her ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) dollars and thanking her for the meal.“Keep the change….” He trailed off remembering that he forgot to ask her name“Jo, my name is Jo Harv( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).”“Nice to meet you, I’m Castiel Novak.”Then, Gabriel emerged lifting his cell phone in the air and exclaiming, “Guess whose got a date tonight with ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)!!”Castiel sighed as he grabbed his tan ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) as he made his way to the door.
