So I read a thing recently and it said, Imagine keeping the secret that Gabriel is alive and letting it slip while with the Winchesters... So I instantly had this pop into my head.. Hope you Enjoy!
Castiel, Dean and Sam are all huddled up in the Impala on their way to a mysterious town where people have been disappearing left and right. Dean is driving at very unreasonable speeds; Cas stares out the window watching the scenery pass by quickly.
Sam is resting his eyes in the back. He's not completely asleep, because who can sleep with the radio blaring so loudly. Suddenly the radio is turned down, just to background noise now.
"Cas you okay?" Dean asks. Cas looks away from the scenery and stares at Dean.
"I am fine Dean. Why do you ask?" Cas asks, wanting to know the hunter's reason for asking.
"You just seem lost in thought, like your thinking about something real hard." Dean says. Cas purses his lips and tilts his head. Dean finds the new look on the Angel kind of cute.
"I am just thinking about this new case. It seems familiar somehow." Cas says.
"Familiar how?" Sam asks him from the back seat, now wide awake.
"I don't know, that's the problem. I suppose I could go ask Gabriel. He's always been better at remembering than I have." Cas says, thoughtfully.
"Woah, woah, hold up. Gabriel?" Dean asks. He has a look somewhere between unbelieving and doubtful. Sam on the other hand…
"Gabriel? He's alive!" Sam is somewhere between overjoyed and relieved.
"Yes, Gabriel is alive. He has been for a while." Cas says. He seems frustrated. Possibly for letting himself slip Gabriel's secret.
"How long's a while Cas?" Dean asks, picking up on the Angel's mood instantly.
"About an hour after he died." Cas says, staring out his window.
"An hour after he died? He's been alive this whole time?" Sam asks, seemingly suddenly mortified.
"Yes." Cas replies simply.
"That a problem Moosekins?" A new but familiar voice asks from beside Sam. Dean swerves slightly, seeing the Angel pop up in his rearview mirror. Sam gasps loudly then glares at the Angel.
"Woah, woah, woah. Why are you mad at me? I didn't do anything." Gabriel says, holding his hands up between him and Sam.
"That's exactly the problem. You know why." Sam growls quietly.
Dean listens to the two have their little fight and turns up the radio slightly. Wanting anything to ignore the sexual tension rolling off the two in the backseat. He reaches across the front seat to rest his hand on Castiel's thigh.
Stroking the fabric slowly with his thumb. Cas lays his hand over Dean's and strokes the back of Dean's hand just as Dean is doing to his thigh.
Dean smiles and continues down the dark highway at unreasonable speeds, with his Angel under hand. And his happy brother in the backseat. All is set right for now.
