What is going on? Three chapters in one day? *le gasp* :0

Yes, here is the 3rd and final chapter leading up to my actual story line. How did my short little one-shot turn into this? It's growing up so fast. *sniffle*

What the hell was he doing? No seriously; what the hell. If he didn't know better, and he did thanks-very-much, Gabriel would think he was purposefully watching them. Which was ludicrous right? C'mon now, if he wanted to do something like that he would have just popped in and made his grand entrance. But here he was sitting on the edge of his seat with a nagging twist of worry and nerves in the pit of his stomach like some teenaged girl. Honestly.

Yet again Gabriel cringed at the sight before him as Sam oh-so-carefully made his way into the rickety old house. Every step that dumb behemoth took was a step only that much closer to his death. What was that boy thinking? He did know that the place was rigged, right? … Right? Dear dad, please give him enough smarts to notice before he's blown to smithereens. Gabriel sent up the silent and, inevitably, ignored prayer before turning back to Stupid Sam.

As his eyes re-focused on the scene from his perch across the street a large and positively deadly explosion set off, and then another after that. Gabriel's heart sank into his feet.

"Sammy!" Gabriel screamed. It felt like his stomach was trying to escape his vessel for how sick he felt. Only after a moment of shock did he think to go and check on the hunter. He was about to anyways, until he saw what really happened.

It wasn't exactly clear from where Gabe was sitting as to how the big idiot pulled it off, but Sam managed to walk away from the blasts unharmed and ready to kick Gordon's ass. This was a huge relief in Gabriel's book. It looked like he wasn't going to lose his future toy, at least, for now. There was plenty of time for Sammy to get destroyed between now and whenever they would meet.

Settling himself, Gabriel gave one more cautious look before snapping his fingers to take off back into his solitude. This just so happened to be an island paradise made for and by the Archangel himself where he could create company if he was feeling the need, so it wasn't that lonely. Only he got the feeling sometimes that it was missing a certain someone.

Gabriel flopped down onto the sand, not minding that the sun was blinding and that it would be much more comfortable inside the giant mansion behind him. He had other things to take care of like, hmm… Maybe the way he called out for Sam when he thought he was being blown up? Or perhaps that he was about to blow his cover? No pun intended.

No alright, pun intended.

But seriously, what was that all about? Sure he had been watching over Sam since birth but it wasn't like that, whatever that happened to be, was it? Nah, he thought with a flippant wave of his hand, not a chance. Quickly squashing any suggestion of his train of thought Gabriel and went about planning his next prank on whatever unfortunate soul happened to catch and hold his attention.

Snapping into existence a note pad and pen he quickly added a few things to a list long in the making.

-Quit being a teenage girl

-SS to island

The last one not even he would understand why he wrote it down until much later on when he would meet the Winchesters face to face for the first time.

A/N

I realize now that this might be a little confusing. Or hell, maybe a lot confusing. It wasn't written in one sitting so that might be the problem. But you know, I kind of like how it turned out anyways. My love for this fic keeps on going and I can't help myself from writing more and more of it. I'm not sure if that will continue to be true as it is abnormal for me to write more than one chapter a week. So I'm going to make that my schedule. Once a week every Monday so that your Monday's can suck a little less. (if you like this story anyways, not so much if you don't) I might update twice a week if my muse continues to be this awesome.

Thanks to my reviewers of the last chapter BloodyRosie and the ever amazing Charlottecjhlvr. I look forward to your input Charlotte!

Wow, long A/N. I think I covered all my bases so I'm done now. Time for heartbreak. More season 7 here I come!

Let my know what you thought in a review if you would like. :)
