Summary: Is it too much to ask for Gabriel to sit a bit more out of his space?
Notes: Written for gottalovev for the Five Acts Meme


Sam sighed inwardly. This was ridiculous. How was he supposed to get any researching done when Gabriel insisted on sitting right next to him? On his bed. So close, their shoulders were practically brushing. It wasn't fair. The archangel was always getting paired up with him - he thought Dean might be doing this just to mess with him. So while Dean and Cas were out questioning people, he got stuck trying to ignore Gabriel to try and get some actual work done. But then he would do something like sit close and Sam's concentration would fly out the window.

Ridiculous, he thought again as he tried to subtly shift himself away from the angel. It wouldn't have been so bad, he thought, if Gabriel just knew. And Sam didn't completely understand how the guy didn't know, because as much as he tried to hide that his feelings for him had grown, he was pretty sure he wasn't doing that great of a job with it. Not if Dean, and to Sam's horror, Castiel kept giving him knowing looks all the time. Maybe if Gabriel knew, he'd stop always being so close to Sam, or being as touch-feely as he was. Because Sam couldn't stop the ache he felt whenever the archangel wrapped an arm around his shoulder - which he's still not sure how Gabriel manages since he never seems to stand on his toes - only to drop his arm away and do the same to Cas and Dean.

But Sam knew he was fooling himself. Even if he was ever able to make Gabriel any less oblivious, the angel would just use it to mess with him. He had been a Trickster for centuries after all. He couldn't decide if maybe he thought it might be better that way, though. Then maybe Gabriel could make enough of an ass out of himself that Sam's feelings would leave him alone. Go away. Because he was not some fourteen year old girl with a crush. He was a Winchester. And Winchesters didn't pine away. Especially not over dick angels who killed their brother hundreds of times and then turned him into a car. They just didn't...

Only he was pining. And as pathetic as he knew it made him, he couldn't stop himself. There would be no getting rid of these feelings anytime soon and he was coming to terms with it. But was it really too much to ask for Gabriel to sit a bit more out of his space? As the thought crossed his mind he felt the bed dip a bit more and turned to find Gabriel in his face, looking over his shoulder at the laptop across his thighs. He sighed, aloud this time, and turned back to his research. Of course it was too much to ask. He was a Winchester, after all.

Yeah, after rereading it today and getting a comment back from the person I wrote it for, I can't resist. I'll be working on some type of follow-up for it soon, promise. Thanks so much for the awesome comment! You put a smile on my face. <3

Poor Sam! This needs a sequel where Gabriel's known about it the whole time!

[wolfish-willow.livejournal.com]

I plan to. I promise to work on something soon. <3 Thanks so much for the comment.

Oooh! Poor Sam!

Sequel?! xD

[wolfish-willow.livejournal.com]

Yes, poor Sam indeed. And I do plan on writing a sequel to this. Just gotta work on my other Sam/Gabriel fic some more first. Thanks so much for commenting. <3

Hey, thank goodness for that Supernatural newsletter thing otherwise I would have missed this. I love how Sam is all helpless against the power of Gabriel just existing and making him want. And angels have no sense of personal space and I approve!

[wolfish-willow.livejournal.com]

yay! Glad you found this and liked it. Makes me all happy :D Thanks so much for commenting. <3

Whoa, I don't know how this one slipped through the cracks. BUT I CAUGHT IT! And I love it! It's so simple but sooo sweet. It's really really cute to get this side of it, since usually, it's a trend that Gabriel is the one wanting, or he's just so willing and easy that Sam just has to THINK about the fact that he wants him, and then he's his. This pining stage rarely gets played with.

I WANT MORE! XD

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. We can always use more pining!Sam, oblivious!Gabriel, can't we?
I actually just finished writing the next bit for it. I'll probably post later today, after some much needed sleep.
Thanks so much for the great comment. I always love hearing what you have to say. <3<3<3 :D

[casiedearestfic.livejournal.com]

I HAVE THE POWER! I ASK FOR MORE....AND YOU MAKE IT SO! lol jk. I can't wait for it, seriously!

Have a good sleep. <3

[aubreestjames.livejournal.com]

Beautiful.
I love these. Will you write more to this verse?

[wolfish-willow.livejournal.com]

Aww, so glad you liked them!

I do plan to add more, but my muse has been difficult with me and I've been working on a fic for spnslashbigbang, so these little fics have kind of taken a back seat. But I've been toying with ideas for the next bit, I promise!

Thank you so much for the lovely comment! <3<3<3

[aubreestjames.livejournal.com]

Ooooh.
I can't wait to check out your big bang. I've never done one, but I bet it's awesome.

[wolfish-willow.livejournal.com]

That's only if I get the rough draft finished by the deadline (in, like, 8 days!!). *headdesk* If I don't get it done for that bigbang, though, I'll just have to use it for another or something. But I'm gonna try to get it done this week. *crosses fingers*

[aubreestjames.livejournal.com]
