You were still a bit dizzy from being dehydrated and you swayed where you stood, putting a hand to your head; it felt warmer than it ought to.

"Whoa there, gorgeous." Gabriel said, a hint of concern in his voice.

"Feeling alright?"

"I'm…I'm ffffii…" your voice trailed off as you felt your legs collapse and strong arms keep you from falling on your side just before you blacked out.

"She's fine, lil' bro." you hear Gabriel say. Your head hurts but you resist the urge to rub it; you wanted to listen in to his conversation with whoever his "lil' bro" was; you noticed that you were laying in the comfort of your bed.

"She just passed out. The real problem is you. Whaddaya think you're doing, bird brain? Falling in love with a human?"

"I'm no-" your heart leapt at the familiar gravelly voice of Castiel.

"Don't lie to me, Castiel!" Gabriel interrupted abruptly.

"You know the rules. The Host won't overlook this. It's one thing falling for a human but to fall for her of all people…you're her Guardian Angel, dumbass! This is way beyond the rules…" Gabriel laid into Castiel with his harsh words.

'He…He loves me?' you think. A smile slowly creeps onto your mouth. You try your best to pretend that you're still sleeping.

"She's awake. Go talk to the Host. I'll keep an eye on her for a bit." Gabriel sighed. You hear the fluttering of wings and assume that Castiel has left. You curse under your breath.

"You owe me big time…" Gabriel mumbled under his breath before walking towards your bed. You quickly opened your eyes and rolled over in your bed to look at Gabriel.

"Wakey, wakey, beautiful." He said with a grin, raising his eyebrows.

All you could do was stare at him, partially out of a lack of words and partially gawking at his looks. Though he was short, he was quite handsome in a peculiar sort of way.

"Snap out of it, Princess. I know I'm pretty sexy but it's not polite to stare." He said putting a hand to your head.

"Well. Your fever's gone…" he said thoughtfully.

"Who are you?" you say quietly.

"The Name's Gabriel, as I said before." He said slowly, looking at you like you were stupid for asking.

"I mean: what are you?" you explain nervously; you play anxiously with the bed sheets at your fingertips.

"An Archangel." He said with a shrug.

"Or at least I used to be."

"What do you mean?" you ask, your curiosity peaking.

"Long story. Don't feel like telling you anyhow, babe."

He sat on the bed and sighed again. There was silence for a few moments as millions of thoughts rushed through your mind.

"Castiel's in love with me?" you ask in a small voice, half hoping Gabriel didn't hear you.

"Yup and that means trouble." Gabriel replied.

"Why?" you wonder.

"Well, hun, let me put it this way. He's your Guardian Angel. He's not allowed to feel anything for you but a need to protect you. But now that he's gone and fallen in love, he's facing the danger of falling and losing his grace."

"So…that means…?" you looked at him, confused.

"Castiel won't be an Angel anymore and he won't be allowed to see you ever again." Gabriel said mockingly slowly.

"Oh…" you said quietly.

"Why would he be in love with me?" you mumble to yourself.

"Well for starters you're drop dead gorgeous." Gabriel said with a roll of his eyebrows. You blushed deeply.

"But my little brother wouldn't go for something so shallow. Your soul is probably what caught his eye. It's pretty pure." He said softly, leaning towards you.

"It's hard to find a soul like that…" Gabriel grinned seductively, his face getting closer and closer to yours; you couldn't move.

"Y'know, there're no rules holding me back…" he whispered. Your heart thumped hard and you shut your eyes.

"Please don't." you breathe anxiously.

Gabriel leans back and sighs.

"As you wish." He said dramatically.

After a moment of silence, Gabriel looked up as if something had just caught his notice.

"Why're they here?" he said in a very annoyed tone.

"Who?" you ask.

Gabriel lifted three fingers.

"Three…" he counted down on his fingers.

"Two…" You look around, out the window and then at your door.

"One."

Suddenly two men burst through your door, making you squeak out of surprise. Gabriel placed a hand on your shoulder and grinned at the two men.

"Congrats, boys! You made it to the bedroom!" Gabriel said in a sarcastic tone; an explosion of confetti burst over their heads. You squealed, startled. Gabriel looked back at you and smiled with glee, apparently overjoyed that his little trick had startled you.

"Gabriel?" the tallest of the men said in a very confused tone.

"Wait, you know them?" you ask the Archangel.

"Why the hell're you here?" the shorter man said with a look of both contempt and curiosity.

"I could ask you the same thing." Gabriel retorted.

"We're hunting a demon, jackass." The shorter one said.

"Wow, rude, Dean." Gabriel said in a mock hurt tone.

"Gabe, why're you here?" the tall one asked.

"Babysitting, Sammy. Now where's this demon?"
