Chapter 15

I wanted to give it a try and see if I could adapt SPN to Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham. It's not anything with humour but I hope you like it!

WARNING: this is not a story suitable for children… you've been warned…

Disclaimer: I do not own Green Eggs and Ham nor Supernatural, however, dreaming that I do is not illegal (:

..o0o..~O*O~..o0o..

"Gabriel, please eat something else besides that disgusting chocolate bar." Anna had been trying to get Gabriel to eat food, real food for the boy simply ate sweets all the time; cereal in the morning, lucky charms or frosted flakes, desserts and all types of candy for lunch, occasionally some junk food, more candy for dinner and carbonated drinks. Gabriel, however, was a strong and toned sixteen-year old boy, his siblings did not know how that was possible, the boy seemed healthy and one would think him completely normal if no one mentioned the sweet tooth he was.

"Anna, leave me alone! I don't like that, it's disgusting, just look at it!" he pointed to the plate she had put in front of him with a proper meal.

"It won't hurt you to try it, please?" she pouted at him.

"No!"

"Come on, Gabe, it's not that bad. I eat it all the time." smiled Sam sitting next to him, "Just try it."

"Oh no, there is no way in Wonka's name I will ever put that in my mouth!" he crossed his arms and frowned.

"You're such a kid, you know." Sam rolled his eyes at him, "You could just take a bite and see if you like it."

"No." he stood up from where he sat at the breakfast bar and headed to his room.

"Well, I tried." sighed Anna and took the plate with the untouched food.

"You think he'll ever outgrow that?"

"Who knows? He's been like this all his life and it'll be a miracle if he changes." she put the empty dish in the sink and sat in front of Sam along with Castiel, who was reading a book and Dean, who was writing an essay while he hummed to a song by Metallica.

..o0o..~O*O~..o0o..

Gabriel closed the door behind him, which Michael had broken but Lucifer fixed, he sat on his bed still munching on a candy bar. There were candy wrappers on the lamp table and a jar of jelly beans.

"Damn it! I left my Twizzlers downstairs!" he stood up from his bed and opened the door to leave. Everyone was downstairs occupied by their own duties, Gabriel could hear some of them speaking and some of them moving around the room. The doorbell rang multiple times at once and he knew that Balthazar and Crowley had arrived. He distracted himself for a moment remembering how Balthazar had been there the previous day and ran into a wall so hard that it bent while chasing him for a Debauve & Gallais bonbon, a grin formed on his face making him miss a step walking down the stairs causing him to fall forward and roll down the staircase. Lucifer was sitting on the sofa proof-reading his report for Human Geography when he heard a small cry and a lot of noise coming from the stairs, he stood up once he saw his young brother land on the floor unconscious, he ran towards him.

Gabriel opened his eyes and found himself lying on the couch, he looked around the room but no one seemed to be there. The house seemed completely empty aside from him and the goldfish that were on the big fish tank in the living room that he swore was not there before, but he thought perhaps Balthazar and Crowley had brought them.

"I am Sam" Gabriel turned his head to see Sam sitting on the arm of the sofa wearing a yellow polo shirt with a flair button that said 'Sam', black skinny jeans and a red beanie hat.

"Um, yeah, I know who you are, Sammy." he rolled his eyes.

"I am Sam, Sam I am" he smiled innocently at Gabriel while trying to balance himself on one foot on the arm of the sofa.

"That Sam-I-am. That Sam-I-am! What is wrong with that Sam-I-am?" Gabriel raised his brow at Sam, he had never seen him doing things like these.

"Do you like green eggs and ham?" he asked now trying to balance himself on one foot on the arm of the sofa while holding a plate with green eggs and green ham.

"What the hell?! I do not like them, Sam-I-am. I do not like green eggs and ham." Gabriel made a horrified face seeing the eggs and ham were green.

"Would you like them here or there?" Gabriel turned to his other side and saw Sam on the other side of the sofa holding the plate of green eggs and ham.

"How- how did you do that? And I would not like them here or there. I would not like them anywhere. I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam-I-am" he crossed his arms still sitting on the couch.

"Would you like them in a house? Would you like them with a mouse?" Sam asked hanging upside down from the chandelier pointing at Anna wearing mouse ears, whiskers and a long tail sitting on a chair holding the plate with the green eggs and green ham.

"What the-! I do not like them in a house! I do not like them with a mouse! I do not like them here or there! I do not like them anywhere! I do not like green eggs and ham! I do not like them, Sam-I-am!" he was freaking out seeing Sam dangerously swinging on the old chandelier and Anna sitting there quietly with the plate on her lap.

"Would you eat them in a box? Would you eat them with a fox?" Sam let go of the chandelier and landed on his feet, he tackled Dean who had fox ears on his head, whiskers, his nose was painted black and a long fluffy tail behind which made Gabriel giggle, Sam and Dean were fighting for a small box that Dean thought was pie but snarled making a disgusted face once Sam opened it, showing the plate with green eggs and ham.

"Son of a bitch!" Dean cursed glaring at he box.

"Not in a box. Not with a fox. Not in a house. Not with a mouse. I would not eat them here or there. I would not eat them anywhere. I would not eat green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam-I-am." Gabriel rolled his eyes and walked out of the living room to the door, Sam followed Gabriel out of the house.

"Would you? Could you? in a car? Eat them! Eat them! Here they are." Sam sat on the Impala grinning with the plate of green eggs and ham by his side. The skies were dark and rain seemed to approach.

"Sam! You better not get food on my baby, you hear?!" Dean yelled standing at the door, Sam jumped off the Impala and awkwardly smiled avoiding a shoe Dean threw at him and Gabriel laughed.

"Ugh! I would not, could not, in a car" he sighed and sat on the floor, he shivered with the cold temperature of outside.

"You may like them. You will see. You may like them in a tree?" Sam was trying to climb the tall tree in front of the Novak house but his foot slipped and he fell face flat on the ground.

"I would not in a tree. I would not, could not in a tree. Not in a car! You let me be!" Gabriel stood and started running down the street. "I do not like them in a box. I do not like them with a fox. I do not like them in a house, I do not like them with a mouse. I do not like them here or there. I do not like them anywhere. I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam-I-am." Sam was chasing Gabriel down the street, they ran through the streets before reaching the train tracks. At a distance the train's loud whistle could be heard heading their way, Gabriel didn't stop running even though his legs were getting exhausted.

"A train! A train! A train! A train! Could you, would you on a train?" Sam yelled over the sound of the train passing at a great speed by their side.

"Not on a train! Not in a tree! Not in a car! Sam! Let me be! I would not, could not, in a box. I could not, would not, with a fox. I will not eat them with a mouse I will not eat them in a house. I will not eat them here or there. I will not eat them anywhere. I do not like them, Sam-I-am." Gabriel stopped and panting yelled at Sam from under a bridge where the train tracks passed.

"Say! In the dark? Here in the dark! Would you, could you, in the dark?" there was no light in that tunnel except at the end and the beginning, Sam walked next to Gabriel with a smirk on his face, a hand in his pocket and the other holding the plate with green eggs and ham.

"I would not, could not, in the dark." Gabriel stopped and turned to Sam irritated, the younger boy pouted and kept quiet until reaching the end of the tunnel.

"Would you, could you, in the rain?" Sam smiled catching raindrops on his palms.

"I would not, could not, in the rain. Not in the dark. Not on a train, Not in a car, Not in a tree. I do not like them, Sam, you see. Not in a house. Not in a box. Not with a mouse. Not with a fox. I will not eat them here or there. I do not like them anywhere!" he growled making fists to his side, Gabriel rubbed his temples already feeling a headache approach.

"You do not like green eggs and ham?" Sam frowned standing in the rain with the plate of green eggs and ham.

"Dear Jesus! I do not like them, Sam-I-am." Gabriel sighed and started walking again.

"Could you, would you, with a goat?" Sam said from a distance, Gabriel turned around and saw Sam sitting on the ground with Castiel wearing very elegantly curved goat horns on his head. Sam gave him the plate with green eggs and ham which Castiel stared at in confusion tilting his head to the side before proceeding to poke one of the eggs with his index.

"I would not, could not. With a goat!" Gabriel yelled from the distance and continued walking, Castiel pouted. The rain still poured lightly and the wind was cold but Gabriel was at least relieved Sam was not following, or at least he thought.

"Would you, could you, on a boat?" Gabriel flinched to the sound of Sam's voice, he stopped walking and turned to glare at Sam who was pointing at a boat parked across the street.

"I could not, would not, on a boat. I will not, will not, with a goat. I will not eat them in the rain. I will not eat them on a train." he stepped closer towards Sam speaking in a dangerous tone but the younger boy seemed unfazed, "Not in the dark! Not in a tree! Not in a damn car! You let me be! I do not like them in a damn box. I do not like them with a damn fox. I will not eat them in a damn house. I do not like them with a damn mouse. I do not like them here or there. I do not like them ANYFREAKINGWHERE!" he pulled his hair and turned to leave without looking at Sam again. "I do not like green eggs and ham! I do not like them, Sam-I-am."

"You do not like them. SO you say." Sam stood there with a hand rubbing his chin, "Try them! Try them! And you may. Try them and you may I say." he smirked raising an eyebrow holding the plate towards Gabriel.

"Damn it, Sam! If you will let me be, I will try them. You will see." he snatched the plate of green eggs and ham from Sam and sat on the ground, the younger boy sat in front of Gabriel with his legs crossed and his chin resting on his knuckles. Gabriel cut a piece of ham and eggs and with a disgusted expression forced himself to chew it, his expression changed once he had finished chewing the green eggs and ham and swallowed.

"Say! I like green eggs and ham! I do! I like them, Sam-I-am! And I would eat them in a boat! And I would eat them with a goat... And I will eat them in the rain. And in the dark. And on a train. And in a car. And in a tree. They are so good so good you see!" he grinned excited and ate the rest of the food ferociously.

"So I will eat them in a box. And I will eat them with a fox. And I will eat them in a house. And I will eat them with a mouse. And I will eat them here and there. Say! I will eat them ANYWHERE!" he spun around with his arms extended looking up the sky.

"I do so like green eggs and ham! Thank you! Thank you, Sam-I-am" he jumped up and down hugging Sam with so much strength the younger boy almost turned purple. Sam smiled wide once Gabriel released him and stood there smug with his arms crossed.

"Gabriel…?" he turned around but saw no one and now Sam was gone.

"Gabriel…" he heard again and he recognised the voice, suddenly the skies darkened like the night and everything faded.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" Gabriel blinked a few times trying to focus his sight, when his eyes finally formed clear images he saw Lucifer staring at him, his head tilted to the side and his brows furrowed.

"Wha- what happened?" he hissed in pain while he tried to sit up, his back hurt and his head ached like he'd been banging his head on the marble floor multiple times.

"You fell down the stairs." Lucifer put a hand on Gabriel's forehead feeling the boy's temperature, "You've were asleep for four hours."

"Oh, he's awake. How are you feeling, Gabriel?" Anna came from somewhere in the room and knelt before Gabriel.

" 'm head hurts." he shut his eyes tightly and felt something cold on his forehead, Lucifer had put a bag of ice on his head. "Where is Sam?"

"He's in the kitchen, he was sitting with me while I finished my homework." said Anna.

"Oh. Okay." Gabriel closed his eyes again, "Anna…"

"Yes?"

"Can I try the eggs and ham you told me to eat?" Gabriel opened his eyes and saw his sister grinning.

"Of course you can." she walked out of the living room to return a ten minutes later with a plate of eggs and ham. Gabriel managed to sit up and put the bag of ice on the side.

"Would you like them on your lap? Could you, would you, eat them with a frappe?" Gabriel widened his eyes and looked at his sister horrified but Anna simply smiled at him innocently.

…o0o…

I messed up a great classic, didn't I? Pffftt

P.S. Gabriel was only dreaming…for if you didn't realise….
