Hey super super sorry for the long wait for this chapter. I've had a lot going on, especially with doctor appointments. But I hope you enjoy!
*Month Nine*
Castiel, Lucifer, and Gabriel had been searching high and low for God, with no luck. Sam's due date was approaching fast and they were running out of time. Sam was unaware of their search, they constantly made excuses to leave the house. Sam sat in the living room with Dean and Bay while the three angels were out getting food. Bay was asleep on the couch in between Sam and Dean.
"How are you feeling, Sammy?" Dean asked, catching Sam's attention. Dean didn't like hiding the fact that they were searching for God from his brother, but he didn't want to get Sam's hopes up. "You okay? You've been spacing out all day."
"Yeah, I'm fine." Sam said. He actually wasn't fine. He had been feeling drained and his morning sickness had been getting worse as the due date was approaching. Everyone was already on edge, so he wasn't going to worry them more. "Where are Cas, Gabe, and Luci? It shouldn't take this long to grab food."
Dean was taking a drink of water when Sam asked about the angels and nearly choked. Sam watched Dean, the question clearly caught his brother off guard.
"They're out getting food." Dean wiped the water off his mouth, avoiding Sam's gaze. "They'll be back soon, I'm sure."
"Dean, stop lying to me." Sam scooted himself to the edge of the couch, ready to stand up at any moment. "What's really going on? You and the others have been acting weird. I wanna know what's going on."
"I'm sorry, Sammy." Dean finally met Sam's eyes. Sam could see the seriousness in Dean's face. "I can't tell you anything this time."
Castiel, Gabriel, and Lucifer had returned from their search. Sam was asleep on the couch and Bay was snuggled up close to him. They searched the house until they found Dean in the kitchen. Dean welcomed them back and gave Cas a quick kiss.
"Did you guys find anything?" Dean asked, leaning against the counter and crossing his arms. All three angels shook their heads. "If you don't find God, then what? Can't you guys just heal Sammy?"
"No, we won't be able to." Lucifer answered, causing everyone to turn their attention to him. They were waiting for Lucifer to explain further. "Each triplet is two thirds archangel. They're all absorbing Sam's life slowly, but when they're born they'll completely suck Sam's life energy away."
"Cas was pregnant." Dean said, in a matter-of-fact tone. Dean wasn't trying to be sarcastic, but it was his nature. "Why didn't Cas die when Bay was born?"
"Because Cas is an angel." Gabriel spoke up. He turned his attention to Dean and began explain further. "Cassie's grace has enough energy to offer that Bay didn't have to take his life in order to live. Sam, however, is a human with three babies ready to tear apart his life energy when they're ready to come into this world."
"The babies don't do it on purpose." Castiel informed Dean. Dean was catching on pretty fast, but he let his mind process what they were telling him a few times over. "In fact, the babies never know that they are draining the life energy. It's an instinct to survive. If Sam were to only have one child he'd have better chances at surviving. Two would push his limit, but three will kill him."
"Which is why we need God." Lucifer stood next to Dean and Cas. "God is the only one who would be able to put Sam back together after the triplets are born."
"Which is why we need to searching harder." Gabriel walked up next to the three other men. He held onto Lucifer's hand. "Hopefully we find him in time."
Castiel and Lucifer snuck out of the house after everyone fell asleep. Gabriel stayed behind to look after Sam. Cas and Lucifer were out searching for their father again. They searched for hours and decided to take a break at the park Gabriel found Cas sitting at. They sat at the same bench that Castiel sat at. Cas started thinking about what had happened then. Loosing Dean, seeing Balthazar again, and having Bay.
"Cas?" Lucifer broke Cas from his thoughts. Cas turned his attention away from the play ground to look at his brother. "Do you think we'll find father?"
"That is the hope." Cas answered honestly. He didn't know if they'd ever find God, and their chances were looking very slim at this point. "If we can't find him, then we'll try our best to find something else to help Sam."
"I've already looked, Cas." Lucifer now stared at the empty play ground. "I'm scared to lose him again, I know Gabriel is scared to lose him too."
He wondered how it would be after the birth of his children. He and Gabriel would have to raise them, and they'd never know Sam. They could tell them countless stories about the hunter, but it wouldn't be the same. The children would never know the sound of Sam's voice. They'd never know the soft touch of his skin. They won't know Sam's warm, gentle, caring heart and personality. The thoughts wondering through Lucifer's head about all the things the children will miss with Sam gone was more than enough to make him depressed. Castiel noticed the sudden mood change in his older brother.
"Lucifer, we will all do whatever we can to keep Sam alive." Castiel said, moving his hand to Lucifer's shoulder to comfort him. "We will find a way to save him."
Sam woke up early the next morning with strong pains and cramps. He looked around the room and found Gabriel and Lucifer fast asleep in the bed, laying right next to him. The pains and cramps continued, only to get worse at the minutes passed by. He had tears welling in his eyes as he clutched his stomach. He was scared something was wrong with the triplets. Sam shook Gabriel's arm to wake him.
"Gabe, Luci." Sam groaned in pain and squeezed Gabriel's arm tight. "Wake up!" Sam shouted and squeezed Gabriel's arm tighter causing Gabriel to jump up.
"Ow, what the hell, Sam?" Gabriel rubbed the sleep from his eyes before rubbing his arm. Gabriel then noticed Sam clutching his stomach and the pained expression on his face. "What's wrong?"
"I don't know." Sam said, taking a deep breath as the pain subsided. He relaxed against the head board and wiped the little amount of sweat from his forehead. "I woke up with pains and cramps."
Gabriel woke up Lucifer and explained the situation to him. Sammy was in labor. Lucifer ran out the room to wake Dean and Cas. Lucifer found them both fast asleep in their room. Lucifer shook Dean's shoulders, waking the hunter and angel instantly.
"What the hell are you waking me up for, Lucifer?" Dean whispered angrily, trying not to wake Bay. Dean then noticed the worried expression painted on Lucifer's face. "What's going on?"
"Sam's in labor." Lucifer spoke softly, but Dean could hear the worry and fear in his voice. "What do we do? We're not even close to finding God."
"I can stay here with Sam." Castiel spoke up and got out of the bed. He snapped his fingers and was instantly dress. "You, Gabriel, and Dean and go out one last time and look for God. I'll call you if anything changes with Sam."
Lucifer went back to the room with Sam and Gabriel. Gabriel was comforting Sam and getting him to relax on the bed.
"Gabriel, come with me." Lucifer changed out of his pajamas with the snap of his fingers. "We're going to look for father one more time."
"Why are you looking for God?" Sam asked, sitting up from the bed and looked from Gabriel to Lucifer. "Tell me what is going on."
Gabriel and Lucifer shared a look. They knew it was pointless to hide it from Sam now. They sat on each side of Sam to explain everything to him.
"We want to find our father to help you." Gabriel explained. He kept his attention on Sam, unaware of Dean and Cas walking into the room. "We're hoping he can save you after the triplets are born. It's the only hope we have."
Sam took a little bit of time to think. Who would know where God was hiding out? Who would be willing to dig into everyone's personal lives? Then a little light clicked in his head.
"Becky and Chuck." Sam said, causing Gabriel and look at him confused. "Chuck is one of your father's profits, I'm sure he knows where God could be. And Becky is pretty nosy and she could be of help as well."
Gabriel was in charge of getting Becky, while Lucifer and Dean got Chuck. Dean didn't bother knocking, instead he kicked down the door. Chuck was startled by the noise and rushed to the front door. He noticed it was Dean standing in the doorway.
"Did you really have to break down my door?" Chuck asked as he looked down at the broken door laying on the floor. Chuck noticed another man standing behind Dean. "Lucifer?"
Dean looked back at Lucifer then back to Chuck. Dean knew Chuck was a profit, but how would he be able to tell it was Lucifer just by looking at him.
"How do you know who he is?" Dean asked, waiting for Chuck's answer. Chuck walked back into his living room, avoiding Dean's question. Dean and Lucifer followed after him. "Answer me, Chuck."
Chuck stood in the middle of his living room and faced Lucifer and Dean. Before he could say anything Gabriel poofed in with Becky. Gabriel looked at Lucifer and Dean, surprised by their serious expressions.
"What's going on?" Gabriel asked, moving to stand next to Lucifer. He held onto Lucifer's hand and turned his attention to Chuck, who was staring at him. "Why are you staring at me?"
"You and Lucifer are still together I see." Chuck smiled slightly, but it quickly faded away. He snapped his fingers changing out of his usual dirty bathroom and pajamas, and into clean jeans and long sleeve shirt. "I already know why you're here. You're looking for me, right?"
"This is the last place I'd ever think to find you." Lucifer stepped forward, now standing in front of Chuck. "Father."
Castiel was sitting with Sam in the master bedroom. Two hours had passed since Dean, Lucifer, and Gabriel went looking for God one more time. Cas helped Sam through each contraction and had everything they would need to deliver the triplets.
"I think we need to call the others." Cas said, holding Sam's hand as the hunter went through another contraction. "Your contractions are getting closer. It will be time to deliver soon."
Sam just nodded his head and took deep breaths. Cas stepped out into the hall way to call Dean. Cas called Dean three times before Dean answered. Castiel filled Dean in on everything that was happening with Sam. After the phone call ended Cas made his way back into the master bedroom. Before he could tell Sam the others would be back soon, they poofed into the room along with Chuck and Becky. Gabriel and Lucifer rushed to Sam's side, Dean sent Becky to watch Bay for the time being, and Chuck stood next to Castiel. Chuck had a troubled look on his face, but Cas didn't have time to question it.
"Cas what do we need to do?" Gabriel asked, Cas could see the worry in his eyes. "Is there anything we need?"
"I'll take care of everything." Cas said, giving Gabe a reassuring smile. Cas grabbed an angel blade he had set on the dresser earlier. "You and Lucifer should just be ready to welcome your children to the world."
Gabriel nodded and returned his attention to Sam. Cas took his trench coat off and tossed it on the floor, out of everyone's way, and rolled up his sleeves to his elbows. Castiel had forewarned Sam that the procedure would be extremely painful, but Sam was not prepared for the amount of excruciating pain that rushed through him as Cas began to cut him open with the angel blade. Dean couldn't stand to hear his little brother's screams of pain, but he knew he couldn't leave. He helped Cas by handing everything the angel would need to deliver his nieces and nephew. To Dean's surprise the triplets came out perfectly clean. Once the babies were wrapped up, Cas handed them to Gabriel and Lucifer. Lucifer held up the two girls and Gabriel held up the boy for Sam to see their children.
"They're so beautiful." Sam said, smiling with tears in his eyes. He relaxed back on the bed while he admired his children. They boy had Luci's blue eyes, one girl had Sam's brown eyes, and the other girl had Gabriel's golden eyes.
"Let's hope they don't turn out looking like Gabe and Luci." Dean joked, moving to stand next to Lucifer. "Have you decided on names?"
"The boy we're naming Robert Adam." Gabriel said, gently caressing the baby boy's cheek. He turned his attention to the baby girls in Luci's arms. "The girl with Sammy's eyes is Mary Ellen and the other girl is Joanna Celeste."
The names brought a smile to Dean's face. He never expected Lucifer and Gabriel would agree to name their children after people who were so dear to Sam and Dean. It made him happy. Dean turned his gaze to Sam, his smile disappearing immediately. The others turned to Sam once the noticed the fear painted across Dean's face. Sam's eyes were closed and he was lying still. His lips were a faint blue and there were no signs that he was breathing.
"Sam?"
This is the last chapter guys. I know major cliff hanger, but don't hate me for it, at least not too much hate. I might do a sequel if you all want. I want to thank who ever it was that gave me the baby names, Guestiel or whatever your name is Thank you soooo much!
