A/N: Another piece of Fluff because I want there to be.
I know there's not much relevance here but I'm over halfway through Season 11 and there's not been much Good happening to either Sam, Dean or Cas lately.
Except Eileen - I like the idea of her and Sam together, it would be sweet - and the Older Woman that she was talking to with Sign Language. That was hilarious.
Anyways... On with the Fluff.
Gabriel knocked on Sam's door "Sammy, can you let me in? I know you're awake"
Sam silently opened to door, allowing Gabriel to pass him
"Sam, please talk to me"
More of nothing from Sam
"Please..." Gabriel lifted himself on to his tiptoes to reach Sam's chin and bottom lip "Helloooo, anyone in there?"
"Gabriel, stop" Sam pushed Gabriel away "I don't want to do anything like that right now. I just need Dean back, away from Lucifer and out of Crowley's grubby hands"
"I get it, Samalam. I just want you to be OK" Gabriel pleaded, hoping Sam hadn't slipped that far down
Sam stopped pacing around, "My Brother is Soulless, part of a Demon, had hallucinations or whatever of Lucifer in his head from his time in the Cage, is now back within arm's reach of Lucifer and Crowley is suppose to fix him. Gabriel, there's absolutely no way I'm going to be OK any time soon" Sam ranted off
"Well how do you feel right now?" Gabriel watched his boyfriend with soft understanding eyes
"Lost, hollow... I don't really know a word for it" Sam sunk down onto the old bed, the springs squeaking in protest
"Well we can work on that" Gabriel lifted his tone, dropping next to Sam wrapping his left arm around Sam, the left side of his wings following naturally "I'll be your shoulder to cry on or the rock you need to keep you steady. Promise you, Sam"
Sam smiled despite himself, "What did I do to deserve you?" Sam pulled Gabriel onto his lap, resting his chin on Gabriel's head, curling his arms around Gabriel's waist trapping him in a hug.
"Lots of things, Sam. My favourite has to be playing along with my creation of TV Land then saving me from the ring of Holy Fire. Thanks for that"
"That was our first kiss" Sam reminisced looking down into Gabriel whiskey-golden eyes, "We were both so frazzled after that"
"You know I still dream of Dean chasing me with a shotgun then having him threaten me with an Angel Blade"
Sam was laughing, remembering the sheer determination on Dean's face to catch Gabriel, at one point they looped around Sam while he was laughing himself breathless and teary eyed
"That was a fun day" Sam whispered.
"For you maybe, I had a crazed maniac on my ass"
"You turned me into Knight Rider"
"Have to admit, you had sweet rims"
"Shut up" Sam playfully scorned
"Make me, Winchester"
All Sam wanted to do was just lean in and kiss Gabriel but he clearly wasn't into it, Gabriel could read Sam like a book
"Hey, it's OK you know. Things will get better. I know it. Isn't there a saying 'It gets worse before it can get better'?"
"Yeah, it kinda sounds like the story of our lives"
"Drama Queen"
"Jerk"
"Moose-man"
"Short stack"
Gabriel made a fake offended noise, much to Sam's delight "Sure, rub it in why don't you! Not my fault you tower over everyone"
"You could have chosen a larger Vessel" Sam suggested.
Gabriel shrugged, "You know, I've been comfortable with this guy for so long I don't think I'd like to invade someone else. Truth be told I can't even remember who this guy was or what he did or even what era he's from" Gabriel rambled away, checking Sam's Soul for anymore dimness however the Archangel had successfully distracted the Winchester from the current situation brightening Sam's Soul for the moment.
"Huh, so on top of being an Archangel that is thousands of years old you don't know how long you've been wandering about in that guy?"
"Yeppers, now I think we've had a tough day, why don't get some actual rest and I'll be here to watch over you"
"Wait, what about Cas and Crowley and-"
Gabriel interrupted, raising his hand "Ah, no. My focus is on you right now. Can't have you fading away on me, Samster"
"OK. You win,"
"I usually do" Gabriel muttered while slipping off Sam then lying down, snapping his fingers so Sam was dressed for bed while his own jacket was removed, the blinds were shut and the door was closed over.
"I think I'm more tired than I thought" Sam yawned halfway through his sentence.
"Clearly" Gabriel smirked "Goodnight, Sam"
The Winchester tucked himself around Gabriel gripping his the red fabric of his shirt tight and panic once again coursed through Sam's body. After a few moments of Sam sleeping Gabriel watched in anguish as Sam began crying - he didn't often let the waterworks flow but Gabriel guessed it was due to having so much wrong with his all-mighty / indestructible big Brother at once that it would eventually form some kind of breakdown from Sam. Gabriel petted Sam's hair, rocked them gently and hushed Sam quietly. He wrapped Sam up in his wings providing comfort however he could.
Gabriel's 'To Do' list was far from finished but Sam took top priority, he always would.
Extra Note: More Drama to come:
Gabriel confronts Crowley.
Cas lays low.
Dean attempts to ignore Lucifer.
Crowley starts his first steps in 'rescuing' Dean.
Will update when I can.
