Shattered: The Sequel to Mirrors

Loving Torture

Gabriel was squirming as Sam was working on the bullet hole in his thigh. Sam growled at Gabriel who rolled his eyes. 

"While I'm enjoying your hands all over me, Moose, this isn't what I'd like to be doing right now," Gabriel said. Sam shot him another glare. 

"As soon as I'm done, we can do whatever you want to do," Sam said. "Just stay still for two fucking seconds," Sam muttered the last part under his breath and Gabriel sighed dramatically. Sam smiled at him and kissed the archangel chastely on the lips. 

"Anything I want?" Gabriel said, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. 

"Sure, Gabe. Just let me patch you up. And then talk to Dean," Sam added the last part quickly. Gabriel wasn't going to argue about that. Dean had been pretty quiet since everything. Seeing Cassie like that....even Gabriel hadn't seen him like that and it had scared him. More for Cassie's sake than the angels, but Dean still didn't have much of an idea what was going on. 

Adam was sitting on the couch nearby looking bored and irritated. At the moment Alfie, Lucifer, and Balthazar (who they had found in a seperate room with Crowley and Gilda) were upstairs taking care of Cassie's wings. Dean was up there too. He had pale and mumbled something about being fine when Michael asked if he was alright. Gabriel glanced over at Adam, who was currently lying on the couch staring at the ceiling. The archangel figured he might as well have some fun while Sam was patching him up. 

"Hey, Adam?" Gabriel said. Adam looked over at him and raised an eyebrow. "Well, during our fun time being kidnapped we found out some interesting things about your boyfriend." 

"What's that?" Adam asked.

"Alfie got us out of our bonds because he was uh, double-jointed. You have any idea how he found that out?" Gabriel asked. Adam turned red and Sam choked on his saliva and started cough/laughing. 

"Okay, please tell me you guys didn't ask him, because he probably made it look 100% times worse than it actually was. You know he gets flustered easily," Adam grumbled and Gabriel burst into laughter. He was glad his younger brother had such a protective brother because, although he obviously wanted Alfie to be taken care of, he also really enjoyed ruffling Adam's feathers. 

"Well, of course we asked him. And he made it seem very bad," Gabriel said. Sam had managed to stop laughing but was now stitching up Gabriel a bit rougher than was necessary. Apparently he didn't think Gabriel was funny. 

"Look, after we all kept getting kidnapped, we figured we'd run through some survival stuff. He taught me how to use an angel blade and we both figured out how to escape bonds and stuff. It wasn't anything dirty," Adam finished explaining with a huff. 

"So does that mean that you two haven't...you know?" Gabriel asked. This time Sam straight up hit him over the head. Gabriel glared at him. "What, it's an important question to ask." 

"No, we haven't, okay? We're taking things slowly," Adam said defensively, turning bright red. 

"Awww, my little brother is the most innocent one of us all," Gabriel said. At that moment Alfie came down the stairs, looking exhausted. His hair was a mess and he was, like usual, wearing one of Adam's oversized jackets. 

"Come on, let's get out of here," Adam said, practically vaulting off the couch to wrap an arm around the youngest angel. Alfie nodded and buried his face in Adam's chest to yawn. 

"Just stay close. The basement is preferable," Gabriel said, returning to an actual responsible adult. Sometimes he had to pretend he was more mature than he actually was. Lucifer would be proud. 

"For sure. We're going to get you into bed, okay?" Adam said this last part to Alfie and then blushed as he realized how suggestive what he said sounded. "Uh, goodnight." The two disappeared down the stairs at the same time that Sam wiped his hands on the nearby towel. 

"Okay, that's it for now. Just take it easy the next couple days..." Sam started. He was cut off as Gabriel grabbed him and pulled their lips together. "I should go talk to Dean." 

"If Alfie is down here then that means Dean is probably helping with Cassie's wings. No sense interrupting that," Gabriel whispered before resuming kissing. Sam didn't argue after that. 

"Let me carry you. I don't want you to hurt your leg again," Sam said, picking up Gabriel bridal style. 

"Onward, Moose," Gabriel said and Sam rolled his eyes but grinned anyway. 

Lucifer was laying in bed, his forehead pressed to Michael's upper back. Michael kept almost falling asleep, but everytime he almost did, Lucifer would kiss the spot between his shoulder blaldes and he would wake up again. After he had finished helping Cassie with his wings, he hadpractically thrown himself into the room he shared with Michael. He wasn't entirely sure how long had passed, but it was dark outside and no one had bothered them, which was a nice change. 

He could feel Michael drifting off into sleep and pressed his lips against his back, allowing his tongue to slip out and the hunter woke back up with a  light laugh. 

"You know the problem with dating Satan?" Michael asked. Lucifer figured since they were talking now that he could shift positions. He grabbed his human around the waist and pulled him to his body. 

"What's that?" Lucifer asked. 

"You're so sweet and everything, but you're sort of using torture tactics on me. I'm pretty sure waking up someone when they're about to fall asleep is a form of torture," Michael mumbled sleepily. Lucifer giggled and kissed the hunter's hair while tangling htogether their bare legs. 

"Yeah, I can see why that would be seen as torture," Lucifer admitted. Michael sighed and leaned into Lucifer's chest, eyes shut. 

"So why won't you let me sleep?" Michael asked. 

"Well...actually. It's because I sort of have something I have to tell you," Lucifer mumbled nervously. "Something really important." 

Hola, my favorite readers! I felt bad about putting out a chapter so late, so here's another one. I'll try to put out another one today...I think I'll have time. Also, I'm on the shuttle and the guy in the seats across from me doesn't even have a backpack and the guy in front of him is snoring. I'm just listening to the K-12 album wondering what the hell is going on in my life. Oh, and sorry for the cliff-hanger. 

I have the honor to be your obedient servant.
