Red String Of Fate-Chapter Two

Sam's POV

It had been a few hours since they'd met the Novaks, and Sam could not stop thinking about Gabriel, and his warm, mischievous, golden eyes. The way his golden-brown hair fluttered ever so slightly in the breeze, how he smirked just barely, the way-

"Sam! Sa-am!" Dean waved his hand in front of Sam's face, drawing him back to reality.

"Uh...Yeah?" Sam asked, blushing.

"You okay? You've been out of it since the Coffeeshop." Dean told him, a little worried.

"I'm fine… Were you saying something?"

"...Alright… I was just saying that Cas and his brother-"

"-Gabriel-" Sam interrupted.

"Yeah, Gabriel, they seemed nice."

"Mmhmm." Sam agreed.

The ringing of Sam's phone cut off their conversation, and whatever Dean was going to say next.

"Hello?" Sam asked, unsure who was calling him.

"Hey. Sam?" A familiar voice asked.

"Yeah, Gabriel." Sam said, smiling slightly.

"Mmhmm. Listen, I wasn't gonna call this soon, but Cassie here insisted. I think he has a thing for your brother."

"Dean?!" Sam asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, who else. Anyway, Cassie wanted to ask if you two could show us around or something, but he was too shy to call."

"Uh… hold on." Sam moved the phone away from his ear and looked at Dean, who was staring at Sam, a question in his eyes.

"It's Gabriel. He and Castiel wanted to know if we could show them around." Sam told him.

"Tell him sure." Dean said.

"Okay." Sam lifted the phone back up, "Yeah, we got time."

"Great. So, meet at the coffeeshop in fifteen?"

"Sounds good." Sam hung up. " The Coffeeshop in fifteen minutes."

"Alright."

Cas' POV

Cas sat, listening to Gabriel talk on the phone with Sam, pouting only when he said 'I think he has a thing for your brother.' After he hung up, Cas asked, "So, did they agree to meet us at the Coffeeshop?"

"Yeah. Fifteen minutes." Gabe told him

"Great." Cas smiled, "We should start walking now."

"Cassie-"

"-Don't call me that-"

"-We don't have to walk. We can take a bus."

"Walking is better."

They were at the cafe in ten minutes flat. "Aren't you two the guys from earlier?" The redhead-Charlie, Sam called her-asked.

"Maybe. So?" Gabriel replied.

"What're you doing back?"

As if on cue, Sam and Dean walked in. "Ohhhh. You're here for them."

"So what if we are?" Gabe snarked.

"Oh, nothing."

Cas turned around and saw a blonde woman with glasses, wearing a business suit, staring at them. She made eye contact and it sent chills down his spine.

"Gabriel!" Cas turned back, nudging his brother.

"What, Cassie?" Gabe asked, annoyed.

Cas turned around and lifted an arm to point at where the woman was standing, only to find she wasn't there. More chills. What?

"There isn't anything there!" Gabe was angry now-Cas had interrupted a battle of snarkiness between him and Charlie.

"Uh..." Cas quickly glanced for something to point at, and found a poster for a vanilla latte with whipped cream, chocolate, caramel, and strawberry syrups, topped with rainbow sprinkles and a cherry. "I was just telling you that you might like that."

"Hmm, yes." He turned to Charlie, "'Taste the Rainbow'"

She giggled quietly, "Mmm, name?"

"Gabriel."

"Go now. The Winchesters are walking over." She waved them off.

"Hey!" Gabriel greeted as soon as they were close enough.

"Hi. Cas are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost." Sam asked.

"Hmm? Oh yeah, I'm fine."

"Sam!" Charlie called.

"Excuse me, I'll be right back."

Sam's POV

"What?" Sam whispered

"They ordered a 'Taste the Rainbow'!"

"Which one?"

"Golden-haired one."

Sam smiled at that. "Are you sure it means what you think it means?"

"Almost positive-Sam? Sam?!"

"Sorry I thought I saw someone staring at us."

"Describe her."

"Blonde, glasses, white, wearing a suit and black heels, hair pulled back, holding a clipboard."

"She sounds pretty."

"Yeah." Sam scoffed "Pretty creepy."

Charlie nudged him lightly, "Go on back now before Goldie thinks you're uninterested." The redhead smiled

"His name's Gabriel." Sam corrected

"Nope. Forever Goldie. When you two inevitably get married, and I give a speech, I'll call him Goldie." She winked and laughed at the deep shade of red Sam had turned.

"Shut up." He walked back to the others.

"What was that about?" Dean asked as soon as Sam was back.

"Later." Dean nodded.

"Okay!" Dean sighed, clapping his hands together, "What do you want to see?"

Gabriel opened his mouth before he was interrupted by Charlie shouting, "Taste the rainbow, Goldie, I repeat, Taste The Rainbow, Goldie!"

Sam turned around and started giving her a bitchface, but she winked and giggled, making Sam laugh quietly.

"You know a Goldie?" Dean asked him, clearly surprised. Sam nodded, unable to speak from silent laughing. "You wanna tell us who? Cause she sure as hell ain't going up."

"Gabriel." Sam choked out before dissolving into a fit of laughter.

Gabe walked to the front counter to receive his cup from the Charlie.

"Dean, we should go to a park." Cas said, completely ignoring the Gabriel situation.

"Yeah… There's a hiking trail, if you're up to it." Dean answered as Gabe came back.

"More exercise? Ugh. I'll sit at a bench playing Angry Birds, thank you."

Sam laughed while Dean just stared at the cup of coffee he was holding.

"What?" Gabriel asked, a look of false innocence on his face as he sipped from the cup.
