A Heartfelt Search

Castiel closed his eyes and breathed in deeply, enjoying the scent of the hunter; whiskey, leather, and a faint trace of gunpowder. A smile adorned his lips.


Sam stopped abruptly, clearing his throat. He glanced at the archangel. "Sorry." He looked at his feet.

Soon Dean's need to move got the better of him, and he murmured, "Hey, Cas. I think my leg fell asleep..."


"Don't be sorry! I like to preform anyways. Hope you liked it," the archangel cheered with a wink.
 
Castiel let a laugh pass his lips and he stood up, looking at Dean.


Sam laughed slightly again. "Alright, if you say so."
 
Getting out of his chair, and grimacing slightly at the odd, almost static feeling of his leg, Dean waited impatiently for it to pass before saying, "I'm starving." Entering the kitchen, the hunter started to make something to eat. Surprise.


Knowing rather well that Sam was the kind to get flustered, Gabriel smirked devilishly before turning around, snapping his fingers, and some clothes appearing. Removing his towel, the archangel started to get dressed, whistling to himself. He really didn't care.
 
Castiel followed the hunter, leaning against the counter slightly as he watched him.


Sam blinked, hazel eyes widening, and then looked down at the ground. That was definitely more of Gabriel than he had ever wished to see.
 
Finding some decent items in the fridge, Dean started to make hamburgers. Turning the stove on, after the patties were made, the hunter hummed ever so softly to himself. He knew Cas would like them, and it didn't make sense making them just for himself.


After a while, the food was done and the green-eyed man handed a full plate to the angel with a small smile, "Here, Cas."


Starting to put on his pants, Gabriel bent down and upside down, saw Sam staring at the ground, "Oh, sorry, kiddo. Didn't see yeah there," he said with fake obliviousness.
 
Castiel smiled and murmured, "Thank you." He wasn't used to eating quite yet but he figured he would grow used to it soon.


"Yeah. Obviously." Sam muttered, keeping his gaze downcast.

Leaning forward and kissing the angel's cheek, Dean murmured, "Don't mention it." The hunter knew Cas wasn't too used to eating, since he really didn't have to do it, but his instincts got the better of him.


Eating his food, Dean's thoughts soon wandered to Sam, and the green-eyed man frowned. Hopefully his little brother was alright.


Finally getting fully dressed, the archangel breathed a dramatically content sigh and sat back in his chair. Snapping his fingers, a mug of hot chocolate appeared, a peppermint stick to stir.


"Want some?" the archangel offered.
 
Eating his dinner rather quickly, Dean cleared his plate and also took Cas' once the angel was also finished. As much as he'd never admit it, the hunter sometimes enjoyed doing domestic things like doing the dishes. Or mow the lawn, or fix the Impala. But he rarely had the opportunities to do so.


Taking Sam's request to heart, the archangel used his mojo once more to zap the taller a steaming mug of hot cocoa. Mini marshmallows floated on top, and an optional peppermint stick too.
 
Castiel felt strangely...warm when he had finished eating, a feeling of being full that he wasn't quite sure what to do with. He glanced at Dean, head tilting, and he asked a rather domestic question:


"Isn't the wife in a relationship supposed to do that?"


Sam laughed softly, amused though he didn't know why, and took the mug, taking a quick sip from the scalding liquid. He looked at the peppermint stick for a curious moment before taking a bite of it.

Turning around from his chore, Dean smirked lightly before he realized that Cas' question was actually serious. A brow twitching before going back to normal, the hunter rubbed the back of his neck, "I don't really think there's a "wife" in a relationship with two guys in it, Cas."


"Awesome, huh? See, livin' with me, you'll get plenty of that," Gabriel mused, punctuating his sentence with a long sip of his drink.
 
"I...I didn't mean pertaining to us per se. Just.." Castiel glanced down at that, stopping there.


Sam laughed and rolled his eyes. "I hope you realize that not everyone is obsessed with sweets as you are."

Not being able to help but smile at the angel's words, Dean placed a hand on Cas' shoulder, "Don't worry about it, Cas. That stuff's kinda...1950s, you know?" It was the 21st century, gender roles were boring.


Putting his mug on the table beside him, Gabriel waved a hand, "Don't know why. Candy makes the world go 'round!"
 
Dean shook his head, a smile still on his face, "Nah. You'll get used to it, Cas." As a manner of slight reassurance, the hunter pressed his lips against the angel's cheek, feeling the stubble prick beneath.


"You say that alot, kiddo." the archangel commented as he snapped his fingers once more so another mug of hot chocolate appeared, along with a small plate of sugar cookies. Gabriel was feeling rather festive, it seemed.
 
Begrudgingly, Dean pulled away when it seemed enough, "Do you think Bobby's still angry to all hell?" he wondered, brow slightly furrowed. The last thing he wanted right now was his surrogate uncle on his tail. Dean knew Bobby wasn't really mad at him, or at least not entirely. Just this whole mission to find Sam and bring him back was putting a strain on all of them.


Sassy moose, Gabriel quipped internally. He had to hand it to Sam; he knew what to say.
 
"Welcome to the family, then." Dean murmured with a bittersweet tone. The angel had been family for a long time, but now there was a few more attachments in the mix, with being in a relationship and all. But the misfits that made their family and friends, were all special and worthy in their own ways.


At the sound of Sam's voice, Gabriel looked up and smiled, "Maybe, my Gentle Giant. And keep calling me that. I like it!"
 
Castiel frowned. "Are you alright?" He asked softly of Dean.


"Don't call me that, though. I'd rather Moose." Sam said with a smirk.
 
The hunter shrugged, "I'm about as alright as I'll ever be." Putting an arm around the angel, Dean brought the angel back to the living room.


Laughter exploded through Gabriel, not expecting Sam to seem so loose and carefree, combined with his own hot chocolate being laced with some liquid courage. Once he had managed to calm down, the archangel rose his mug in the air, "We've got nicknames now! And to think you hated 'em!"
 
"Can I do anything?" Castiel asked softly, in a worried tone.


Sam laughed along with Gabriel for a moment, then wondered what he was laughing at.

"Just be you, Cas. S'all I need," the hunter answered, tone remaining carefree despite his true feelings. Dean had expected that coming from his partner, the angel always wanting to help to the best of his ability. It was admirable, but sometimes it got him into trouble. Then again, Dean had some qualities that did the same.


"I've never seen you like this, Sam. It's pretty cool," Gabriel remarked, before taking another sip of his drink. He still had another, and he could handle his drinks...hopefully.
 
Castiel gently reached down to lace his fingers with the hunter's, looking up with his ever-bright blue eyes.


"Is it?" Sam asked of the remark, smiling.
