Chapter 24: Time to tell the family the big news
Gabriel and Castiel had agreed to not talk about how they were moving until they could announce it to everyone. But, they still packed up their shared closet, their shared bathroom and started to slowly move stuff over to the condo. The official moving date was going to be May 1rst. It was a week away so it was time to break the news. Sunday dinner was the best time. Sunday dinner was the only time the Novaks were all together. Gabriel had told Castiel that he planned on breaking the news then. Castiel was ready. Gabriel had waited until at least half-way through the meal. He eyed Michael for a moment then took a deep breath. He threw a look at Castiel and pointed at the table, in a sign of 'now?', Castiel nodded. It was go time. "Michael, I have something to ask of you." Michael paused, lifting his gaze to stare at Gabriel. "This is unusual. What is it, Gabriel?" Gabriel shifted, trying to appear as nonchalant as possible. "I want you to give me full custody of Castiel."
The entire table went silent.
Everybody stopped eating, turning their attention to Gabriel, looking at him in shock. Michael's face turned a dark red as a scowl presented itself on his face. "Excuse me?" Gabriel smirked, leaning back on his chair "Well, " he started "I'm moving out and taking Castiel with me and it would be so much easier to sign permission slips if he just had to go to me" Michael growled "Gabriel! How dare you try to run away again! I thought you were done with this foolishness!" Gabriel frowned "This isn't foolishness Michael, it's growing up! I'm not running away. I'll give you my new address and everything! I'm moving on. Which apparently is something that this family doesn’t seem to understand? We don't need to follow Dad's plan! Dad's plan was just something he put down for us to make sure we knew there was always a place for us in the company; it's not set in stone! We don't need to take over every position in the company! You are raising, well, I hardly call it raising, but you're forcing Castiel to be a perfect little employee for you! And all of you who have done so? Look at you! You're constantly at each other's throats, backstabbing, stealing money from each other, doing underhanded mergers behind everybody's back!" At that moment, everybody at the table (minus Castiel, Michael and Gabriel), lost all of the colour in their faces, a look of shock written all over it. "I just want to give Castiel the chance to do what the fuck he wants to do with his life - if he wants to join the company? Fine! Whatever! But at least it'll be his goddamn choice!"
Michael stood up and slammed his hands on the table "Gabriel! You will NOT split this family apart!" Gabriel rolled his eyes, snarling "I don't need to! You're all doing it to yourselves! You guys are ripping each other apart because you're all sick of each other and I'm sick and tired of Castiel being the victim in all of this!" Michael hissed "I'm not giving you custody of Castiel, Gabriel!" Gabriel paused, frowning but his expression was stern and serious. "I'm not giving you a choice. You give me Castiel or I'm running this company into the ground." Michael paused, everyone gawking at Gabriel. "...Excuse me?" Gabriel smirked, throwing an arm behind his chair. "I have serious, very illegal dirt on every single one of you and the company. All those things I mentioned before? I have documented proof of every single one and I will go to the Medias if you do not give me custody of Castiel. And before you even think of trying to take me down with you - there's nothing with solid proof on it and nobody will believe a bunch of goddamn liars who will be spending the rest of their lives being someone's bitch in prison. So." started Gabriel as everybody; including Michael looked at Gabriel horrified. Minus Castiel who was smiling proudly at his brother.
"What do you say now, Michael?"
