PDAphobia

Disclaimer: Not my boys, just my story.

Gabriel and Sam have been together for four months, thirteen days, and 42 seconds. But who's counting? Gabriel. He may not seen like it on the outside, but on the inside he's a huge romantic. It's one of the reasons Sam loves him, because he's seen it. When Sam found out that Gabriel kept track of their relationship time he grinned hard and wide, then leaned over and kissed his cheek (to which Gabriel shrugged and promptly said it was "no big deal").

One thing that Gabriel has trouble with is expressing these feelings. This came into play at breakfast that next wednesday at IHOP with Sam, Dean, and Cas. Dean had his hand on Castiel's thigh and the angel smiled before leaning against his boyfriend. Gabriel looked to Sam, his hunter closed the menu before resting his hand on the tabletop. Gabriel moved his hand slowly to his significant others, right before he could grab hold of it Sam shifted to take a drink. Gabriel quickly pulled his hand back and awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck. Gabriel looked to his right in the booth, he had one more idea. He stretched his arm then slowly moved it over Sam's shoulders...until he left the table to use the restroom. Leaving Gabriel's arm hanging loosely over the now empty seat. He heaved a heavy sigh before letting his arm drop back to his side. The archangel looked over at the couple to see if they noticed his gesture-failure, only to find the two of them making out behind Dean's menu. Gabriel crossed his arms and leaned back against the seat, pouting.

When Sam got back from the bathroom their food was there. Gabriel, sulking, dejectedly picking at his hash browns. When Sam sat down he leaned over and wrapped an arm around his archangels shoulders. Gabriel looked up at him to find the hunter smiling softly down at him. Gabriel blushed and looked away. A few minutes into breakfast Sam leaned over and whispered in the angels ear.

"You know if you wanted to hold my hand all you had to was ask." To which Sam grabbed Gabriel's hand and kissed each of his knuckles before dropping it again. Gabriel looked down for a moment then back up at his boyfriend. Finally figuring out just how to express his love for Sam.

"I love you, Sammy." Sam's eyes widened for second before his mouth was engulfed by the hunter. When they eventually broke apart so Sam could breathe, he offered a small smile.

"I love you too."
