"Now what, Genius?!"

"Ow shod a no?!" The blonde mumbled around a mouth full of Sam's abandoned sandwich, smirking at Dean with an all to familiar smirk.

"Damn it, Gabriel this was your idea!" Dean snapped. He was already regretting this idiotic plan - nothing good ever came from messing with Angels - and now he had watched his Cas walk out the door with Sammy! As if it wasn't bad enough thinking of his Angel dating his Brother, but now he had been left to deal with the Archangelic douchebag he had met in a bar.

"Okay for starters, its Gabriella!" She said with a flick of her hair and a bat of her eyelashes. "And for seconds, you just didn't sell it enough! I told you at the bar, you gotta make him jealous and he will come running…At least that -was- the plan, I don't know what it was you thought you were doing when you came in here." Dean pouted and crossed his arms over his chest, mumbling about freakin' angels but at least he was listening for once in his life. He was really starting to regret going out for a drink.

"Well what the hell do you want from me?!" Dean snapped "Christ, Gabe, I've never done anything like this before!" Gabriel rolled his eyes at the dramatic Hunter and snapped his fingers, changing out of the girl suit and opting for the original Trickster they had all come to love. Dean raised his eyebrow at him.

"Dude, did you just do an outfit change…who do you think you are, Whoopi?" Dean snarked at him and Gabriel shrugged, resting his feet up on the table.

"What? I felt like slipping into something more comfortable, if you know what I mean." Gabe winked with a smirk and Dean sighed dramatically.

"What use are you?" Dean mumbled to himself and Gabe got up, grabbing the Hunter by the shoulders and slapping him across the face. It took several moments of stunned silence for Dean to register what had just happened…

"Dude…what the hell?! I've ganked people for less!" Dean snarled but Gabriel just laughed at him.

"Oh come on, Deano, lighten up! You always take crap way too seriously!" Gabe joked but it did nothing to lighten Dean's mood.

"Lighten up?! You slapped me!" Dean shouted at the jovial Archangel but Gabe just shrugged it off as if it were nothing.

"What? You see it all the time on TV…"

Dean growled and was just about to launch himself at the infuriating Trickster when a sound from upstairs shocked him to a stop, a loud thump and a crash followed by a high pitched squeal from a very familiar voice.

"SAM!"

Dean and Gabriel tore out of the room as fast as the could run and skidded down the hallway. All sorts of scenarios were running through Deans had at that moment, break-ins by Demons or some other unknown Monster that was currently trying to eat his Brother and his…Angel, and when they reached the door to Sam's bedroom Dean had his hand on the doorknob and was just about to burst into the room when more sound filtered through from inside the room and Gabriel grabbed him by the wrist, stopping him just in time.

"Oh God, Cas!" Sam moaned from beyond the door and Dean went pale, his entire body slumping in defeat at the sounds of pleasure coming from inside…

"That's it Sam, let it out…I want you to tell me how it feels…" Came Cas' voice and Dean could barely take anymore, turning away from the door and storming off to his own room and slamming the door behind him. Once inside he collapsed down face first on the bed and began pounding the pillow with his first, unable to process what it was he was -still- hearing! From a distance now, but no less clear to him, he could hear the sounds of moaning from Sam and Cas talking to him as they did…whatever the hell it was they were doing! Dean didn't even want to think about the details, it hurt to much just hearing it.

"Jeez, Dean, what did the pillow ever do to you…"Gabe's voice joked from the corner of the bedroom, but there was no real humour in it.

"Screw you, Gabriel…" Dean sobbed into the pillow, trying to muffle the sound but failing. He heard Gabriel sigh and move towards him, and when a hand laid down on his back and began to rub gently he considered throwing it off…but it was too much effort and he settled down instead, crying softly to himself as Gabriel hushed him. Once the Hunter had finally settled back down again, Gabe sat him up slowly and smiled.

"This isn't over yet, you do realise this?" Gabe said and Dean shook his head in defeat.

"What's the point, Gabe? He's happy, Sammy's happy…just leave it alone…" Dean said heavily but Gabriel's face darkened at the thought.

"No! I won't leave it alone! We are doing this, we are getting you and Cas together, and as for Sam…Cas can leave him alone…" Gabriel trailed off with a blush, turning from Dean and suddenly the Hunter was suspicious. An Archangel Gabriel was in body…but a Trickster he was at heart and if there was one thing Dean knew to be true, it was that Tricksters never did anything for anyone unless there was something in it for them. The question was simple…

"What's in it for you, Gabe?" Dean asked, suddenly calm and poised as if ready to strike and Gabriel was refusing to meet his gaze.

"I have no clue what you are talking about, Dean…Can't I just want to see my bro and his boy toy happy for once?" Gabe said, avoiding the real issue and Dean shook his head, grabbing Gabe by the arm and pulling him around to face him.

"No you can't, cause that ain't you…Yeah sure, maybe seeing Cas happy would make you happy but something else is going on so what is it?! There is something in this you want and I…" This time it was Dean's turn to drift off mid sentence as it all clicked into place for him. If Dean got Cas and they were together, then it wasn't either of them that he was interested in…that left only one person in this equation…

"Oh good God, YOU LIKE SAMMY?!" Dean yelled and Gabriel lunged forward to silence the Hunter before the couple in the next room over heard him yelling. If he blew this act now all was lost and Gabriel couldn't handle being pushed to the side again.

"Would you shut up, idiot! You want them to hear you?!" Gabriel said in a harsh whisper with his hand over Deans mouth. "You spoil this, I will make you regret it you got it?" Dean nodded quickly and Gabriel let him go, pushing him back down onto the bed beneath him. The Hunter was staring up at him in shock, and the constant eye contact was starting to creep him out…Finally Dean snapped out of it and began to laugh.

"What the hell is so funny, Winchester?" Gabriel pouted and Dean just laughed harder at the sulking Angel.

"Well well well, looks like Sammy caught himself a Trickster…What was it Gabe, what caught your eye…" Dean said, grinning like an idiot.

"Shut up…" Gabriel mumbled but Dean couldn't help but keep prodding.

"Was it the hair? He has great hair, right? Like the chick in the L'Oreal Ads." Dean said with a wistful look in his eye.

" !" Gabriel snapped and Dean smirked, knowing he had the Angel right where he wanted him…

"How would that work exactly I mean you don't strike me as a bottom but come on…He's a little big for you, ain't he short stack?" Dean said and Gabriel finally snapped, flipping the Hunter onto his front and pinning him down with one arm behind his back and one trapped under him.

"Oh fuck, Gabriel!" Dean screamed out and for a moment the room was silent, then from across the hallway came a dual cry that made both men collapse with laughter.

"GABRIEL?!"

Sam was furious! Of all the people to screw around with - literally screw around with - his idiot older brother had to choose his Trickster…-The- Trickster.

Castiel was in a state of complete shock, unable to believe that his own brother, who knew how he felt about Dean, would go so far as to have relations with him. What had he ever done to make Gabriel so angry with him that he would want to hurt him in this way?

Sam was back to pacing the room, trying to come up with some explanation to the whole situation. There was just no way that Dean would be doing the do with the Archangel, it wasn't possible, Dean was no way into the Angel…was he? He couldn't be, Sam couldn't handle that…there had to be something else, some other reason why they would…

And then it all clicked. Archangel second but Trickster first and what was the one thing Tricksters did…Tricked! This was all a trick! They knew! And they were doing exactly the same thing that Sam and Cas were doing!

They were trying to make them jealous!

It was all slotting into place now. Dean would never bring some random girl back to the bunker with him, he loved this place too much and the outside world wasn't allowed in…had it been some normal girl he would have taken it back to her place but this wasn't some normal chick, this was Gabriel in a chick suit! Dean had obviously gotten so jealous when he walked in on Sam and Cas fighting and thought they were screwing, so he went out to find some solace and instead he found Gabriel…and Gabriel had gotten him to agree to this stupid plan because…why? Sam knew first hand that Trickster only ever did what suited their own interests but he couldn't see any reason why Gabe would want to get Dean and Cas together, unless of course he did actually have a heart and wanted his brother to be happy. It was unlikely and a long shot but it was the only theory that Sam could come up with…there was literally nothing else in it for him.

"What about you, Sam?" Cas asked from his spot on the bed and Sam jumped, unaware that he had been talking out loud the entire time. "What if his part in this is just to get to you?" Sam scowled and turned away.

"No…its not me." Sam mumbled and Cas tried to press on.

"But, Sam, what if…"

"NO, CAS!" Sam snapped and Castiel went quiet, looking sadly at his upset friend. "He doesn't want me, lets just leave it at that…" There was a few moments of tense silence before Sam smiled and tried to smooth it over. "Besides…we got work to do?" Sam said and Castiel looked confused for a moment.

"We gotta make Dean crack and come running first…No way he is getting his own way this time!" Sam said, advancing on Castiel and pushing him down onto the bed before crawling over him.

"So tell me Cas…how good is your dirty talk?" Sam asked and Castiel groaned, thumping his head back on the bed.

Here we go again…
