Spn Gabriel Imagines & Preferences

Right Time (RSJ)

Rich and Olivia grew up together. He was friends with her brother and they became good friends, even with the age gap between them. Rich has three boys and is divorced (he's always been in love with Olivia). And she has been having relationship problems with her partner for eight years. She has two kids, Daniel and Ayla. She recently fell out of love with her partner, Connor and she doesn't know what to do. So, she turns to her best friend for help.

However, one weekend at a Supernatural Convention in Nashville, Tennessee may change their lives forever

Olivia carries her three-year-old daughter on her hip while her six-year-old son holds her other hand. She walks down the driveway to the front door and takes a deep breath. She feels a gentle squeeze on her hand and looks down. "It'll be okay, mommy," Daniel tells her. She smiles slightly "Thank you, Danny. Ring the doorbell". He jumps up the step and pushes the button and a loud 'ding dong' sounds. Despite the time, it doesn't take long for the door to open. Rich furrows his eyebrows in confusion "Liv, what's wrong? Is everything okay?". She frowns, propping Ayla up a little higher on her hip "Um, I... I'm sorry it's so late. I didn't know where else to go". He looks at Daniel and Ayla, then back at Liv "Don't worry about it. Come on in". He moves aside to let them in, then shuts and locks the door behind him.

Rich follows them into his living room. He didn't bother about the shoes on his carpet. He knew something was wrong. He watches Olivia put Ayla down on his couch and Daniel sits next to her. Rich sighs as he switches the TV on, then gives the remote to Daniel "Here, buddy. Put on whatever you want. I'm gonna talk to your mom, okay?". Daniel nods "Okay". Rich walks over to Liv "Come on".

He leads her through to the kitchen and they sit at the table.
"Okay, talk to me, Via. What's wrong?" He asks, his voice soft

First POV

I sigh, fidgeting with my hands to avoid his gaze. He reaches over the table to place one of his hands on top of mine, making me look at him. "Hey, whatever it is, you can tell me. You know you can. Come on, it's just me" He tells me. I frown "Richie... Connor cheated on me". His eyebrows furrow in anger "He what? Where is he? I'm gonna kill him". He goes to stand up, but I grab his sleeve
"Rich, please don't do anything. I... I don't know what to do". My eyes fill with tears and he takes a breath before looking at me. He stands up to move around the table "Stand up, Via". I do as told and he wraps his arms around me for a hug. I put mine around his neck and bury my face into his chest. Then tears start to run down my cheeks. He sighs quietly, rubbing my back comforting "Hey, shh. It's okay, Via. You're gonna be fine, I promise. I'm right here, okay?". I sob in response "I don't know what to do, Richie". He sighs, pulling away from me a little to look at me "I'll tell you what you're gonna do. You and the kids are going to stay with me for a few weeks, alright?". I shake my head "Rich, I can't do that to you". "Of course you can. You can stay here, rent-free. The boys are coming over in a few days, they will happily keep Dan and Ayla company. It'll give you time to think, what do you say?" He explains. He rubs my arms a little as if encouraging me to say yes. I sigh "Alright, fine". He smiles, wiping the rest of my tears away with his thumb "Okay, good. Now, why don't you tell me what happened?".

I frown "Well, me and Connor have been arguing a lot recently. But last week, we had a big one because he doesn't spend a lot of time with the kids. He's always working and when he isn't at work, he goes out with his friends for a drink. It's like he doesn't care about us at all. Anyway, after that he stormed out and he didn't come back until the next day. He acted like nothing happened, which I thought was a little strange, but I ignored it. So, today we were arguing again. And I guess it just slipped out. He told me he cheated on me while he was out. He went to the bar and met a woman there, who he hooked up with. I... didn't know what to say or do. I just got those two and left". Rich sighs "I'm so sorry, Via". I shrug "Don't be sorry, Rich. I think I was kinda expecting it". He tilts his head "What does that mean?". "I don't know. I guess I just realised that I don't feel anything for him anymore. I just thought it would be easier to stay with him for Danny and Ayla" I tell him. Rich sighs "Via, if you aren't happy, then you should just leave him. The constant arguing won't do good for anyone. No offence, but your kids don't really have a relationship with their dad. I mean, they're closer to me and Rob put together". I smile slightly "You're right, Richie. I think I should just end it". He nods "Okay, but you don't have to do it right away. Just relax for now". We walk back through to see both my kids sound asleep. Ayla is practically on top of Daniel. They were watching Looney Tunes. I watch Rich turn the TV off, then he gently picks up Ayla. He sits her on his hip and her head rests on his shoulder "I'll take her upstairs, they can sleep in the spare room". I nod before waking up my son. "Danny, wake up. Go with Rich upstairs, okay?" I whisper, gently shaking his shoulder. He wakes up, rubbing his eyes "Okay, mommy".

The next morning

I woke up this morning and my kids weren't in the spare room where we left them last night. But I heard Daniel laughing, so I assumed they were downstairs with Rich. I enter the kitchen and the sight I am met with brought a smile to my face. Rob is cooking breakfast, Ayla is sitting at the kitchen island while Rich and Daniel are having a sword fight with metal straws. I chuckle "What is going on in here?". Rob heard me come in and shrugs "I don't really know, to be honest". I smile "How did you get dragged into it?". He chuckles "Oh, you don't know? I'm over here all the time". I smile, shaking my head
"Good to see you, Robbie". He gives me a quick hug "You too, Liv". Then the sword fight stops. Daniel sits up beside his sister and Rich walks over to us "Morning, Via. Sleep well?". I nod "I did, thank you". Rob returns to making pancakes. I walk over to the Island and sit across from the kids. Rich follows me and leans against it "So... Liv, the reason Bobbo is here is we are working on some things for the convention next week. We were wondering if you wanted to come with us. It's in Nashville". I look at him "Richie, I can't just... up and leave. I have these two". "We're bringing our kids with us too. Come on, it'll be fun. And you need the break" He replies. I look at Daniel and he smiles widely. "Do you two want to go?" I ask. Dan nods excitedly and Ayla smiles "Yeah!". I chuckle, then look at Rich as Rob brings a plate of pancakes over "Alright, we'll go".
