Living In The Past (Gabriel)

Infants, Unanswered Questions, and My Shitty Life

Life was good. Well, as good as it could be, for Gabriel. He had finally tried that toy. And, it hadn't triggered him. In fact, it had been really fun to use.

Currently, he was looking for his hoodie. He and Cas were helping Dean move his stuff in. Well, some of his stuff. Enough that Dean didn't have to run home every morning.

Him and Cas had spent the day prior cleaning out and setting up the only spare room Gabriel had. He'd honestly forgotten it had existed.

"Cas?? Have you seen my hoodie??" He called, frowning. He could have sworn he had left it on the bed. Cas must have moved it.

"Which one?" Cas called back before poking his head into the room.

"My blue one... I swore I left it on my bed. Did you move it?"

"No. Of course not. Maybe Dean moved it?" Cas frowned, helping Gabriel look for the hoodie, soon finding it under the bed. Why would it be there?

Gabriel frowned. "Thanks." He looked at the hoodie before tugging it on. Why was it under the bed? A chill crept down Gabriel's spine. But, it was soon pushed to the back of his mind when he heard Dean enter the apartment, heavily setting down a box.

He quickly went to help, moving the box to the spare room and happily chatting to Dean. He and Cas went outside to get the other box, while Dean grabbed the extra things.

Gabriel was glad to be around both an omega and an alpha. Cas made him feel safe, and Dean helped with comfort, sometimes. Both scents were comforting to him.

And, he definitely needed the comfort, sometimes. And, poor Gabriel, Sam's bachelor party was coming up. And, Gabriel couldn't get out of this one. He'd already spent hours trying to think of a way out. And, he had came up with nothing. Sam had also sent a friend over to give Gabriel some thing.

And it was an alpha.

And Cas and Dean couldn't be there.

Dean had tried explaining to Sam why the random friend couldn't come, but apparently that was the only time he could be there. He was coming over the next day and Gabriel was doing his best to push off thinking about it.

He pushed the thought out of his head and went to grab a small box, taking it to the spare room, smiling.

"This it?" He asked Dean.

"This and the gigantic box Cas is carrying up." Dean chuckled, jerking a thumb in Cas's direction. "He insisted on carrying it on his own."

"That... is bullshit..." Cas huffed as he set the box down, panting. "You whined about your fragile omega body not being able to carry the box."

"Oops?" Dean grinned, almost getting attacked by his alpha and tickled all over. "Hey! Hey!" He giggled, trying to squirm out of Cas's grip.

Gabriel laughed a bit, before his smile faltered and he felt a pang in his heart watching them be so domesticated. "I'm gonna order pizza! And, I'm only getting the one I want!" He grinned, to change the mood, quickly running down to the kitchen before getting tackled by Dean right as he grabbed the phone. Gabriel squealed before his eyes widened when Dean pinned him down, gasping and starting to panic.

"No, no, no, no, no!" He repeated, struggling as hard as possible. Dean immediately got off Gabriel, apologizing profusely.

Gabriel started sobbing and curled up. Cas went over and carefully scooped Gabriel up, sitting on the couch and hugging him close. Dean followed and offered comfort as well.

It took a while to get the tears to stop, but soon Gabriel was just dry sobbing and hiccuping, whimpering every so often. Cas rocked him, Dean petting his hair. "Shh... Shh.. You're safe. I promise." Cas whispered.
