Heya! Well I have no idea what this is. Pardon the generally awful writing style, I did this when I was more or less asleep. This was actually a dream of mine and I tend to write them down so I don't forget, so this is what came of it. The rating is just for what I might do with this so don't worry too much about it. Enjoy~ (I guess)


It was colder than any night Gabriel could remember, and that was saying something. The frozen air whished past him at his top speed, his wings nearly to numb and cold to be able to keep him in flight. If he wasn't sure he needed to do this he would have turned around long before this point. Maybe he wouldn't have even tried to leave. But he had something he needed to check on before he went about finalizing his witness protection arrangements.

Well past reasonable hours Gabriel reached his destination with just enough energy to do what he needed and scram. The two story house was of average appeal with everything, including the iconic white picket fence. Had he not been practically frozen he might have chuckled at that thought, but as it was he needed to get inside fast before the cold started to affect his vessel to the point of blackened fingers and toes.

The door was an ugly shade of brown and he hesitated before it. Making sure he hadn't been followed and no prying eyes were watching, Gabriel snapped himself into the downstairs foyer. The first thing he noticed was the distinct reek of demon from upstairs. Gabriel's stomach did worried flips for his strong fear something had happened to his interests.

In an instant he teleported himself to the nursery up the stairs, his eyes intently glued to the crib by the window the moment he materialized. Within was an infant of about eight months; a baby boy named Samuel Winchester. Giving into his worry Gabriel silently made his way to the edge of the crib and sighed with relief upon noting that the boy was, thank dad, still in one piece. As for the stench however, it was obvious that Sam had been polluted by some demon blood and he made a mental note to kill said demon. Gabriel's nose crinkled in distaste for even having to do that, someone should have been paying attention, but ignored it in favor of what was before him.

After hearing so much about the Winchester boys Gabriel had taken a big interest in the younger of the two. For soon enough this youth would be the vessel for his temper tantrum throwing older brother, Lucifer. Every angel alive and still working for the better side of the God-squad would be doing their best to either kill or otherwise render Sam useless to dear Luci. But he sincerely hoped it wouldn't turn out like that, even if it was probably inevitable.

Ducking his head under the mobile hanging above Gabriel placed a light kiss to Sam's head, his fingers idly playing with a few locks of the baby's soft hair. "Hey there kiddo." He spoke softly, careful not to use much of his voice. Luckily, Sam only smiled and turned his head the tiniest bit into Gabriel's lingering touch.

Silently chuckling Gabriel pressed another kiss to Sam's forehead before moving away. If he spent too much time here it wouldn't go unnoticed by his dick brothers. So he gave a wave to the unconscious baby and snapped his fingers to take him anywhere but there. It would be a long time before he would see Sam again, and with luck he would get to help him fight his destiny. Going so far as to, if it came to it, protecting the boy with everything he had. Because for his Sammy, Gabriel would do just about anything.

So I'm debating on whether or not to make this a multi-chapter fic, but it's really up to whether or not you guys like it that much or not. For now though I'm going to leave it as 'complete'. Let me know what you think in a review if you would like. :)

p.s. Yay for my first real fanfic! Whoo-hoo! Hopefully I can get my brain to focus like this more often. Also, I hope this wasn't too confusing because there isn't a lot of back-story to go off of here, but bear with me. Or maybe i'll write some back-story; maybe... Now I'm off to cry and have my heart broken by season 7! YA! :,D
