Chapter Twelve
Dean was not complaining, he really wasn't, he just waited for the inevitable moment when his own irresponsibility came back to bite him in the arse, because it always happened, he never managed to get away with being inconsiderate in his life. And this? This was insanely irresponsible, even if he was literally not in his right mind when he jumped the angel on a whim. Again he was not complaining it was just... no matter how he looked at it there were only good things about it for now and surely that could only mean that it would end badly, he didn't have the kind of life where things stayed good. He actually suspected at one point that his Mother left him with a curse as well on top of throwing him out.
He never thought about how things could go wrong usually, but this time it was harder to ignore that one annoying voice in the back of his mind. That of course didn't mean that he couldn't do it, he very much managed to squash it down almost entirely. He felt way too pleased with himself to be worrying about the future and that helped a lot, because he only had to look at Gabriel and he felt a wash of satisfaction of a job well done.
Gabriel was more leisure like all of his hard edges were smoothed down and he had a lighter air around him altogether. So yes, Dean felt satisfied about that, and it was not like he would've been able to push him into the arms of some lesser goddess or other non-human, some stranger to touch someone who has never been touched before and not like Dean didn't enjoy all he could do immensely. Gabriel probably wouldn't have cooperated if it would've been someone else advancing him and besides deities tended not to take sex as lightly as Dean did. It could be used as leverage, as an advantage, it was used in magic in countless ways, it could be payment, a reward or a gesture of obedience or worship. He made sure to explain that to Gabriel, the angel simply told him that he didn't plan on getting that close to any goddess, Dean laughed and told him that he will change his mind sooner or later.
Again Dean was not complaining about that either, it was good to think about being the only one to have the archangel's focus and attention for now. He was not used to regular partners, in fact he couldn't remember anyone he spent more than one or two nights with in his entire life, but he figured he could make an exception in this case since he was sure that Gabriel wouldn't stick with someone like him much longer now that he got the basics so he really should just enjoy himself as long as he could.
He had to admit that he never slept as peacefully as when the angel stayed close to him, he usually couldn't sleep too deeply being always alert of any danger that could lure in the night, any of his enemies finding him unexpectedly, but Gabriel's presence made him forget about it, he was powerful enough to even make Dean relax and feel safe enough to sleep properly. That he could really get used to.
'This feels much more familiar already than it has any right to be' he said as he shifted a little, he recognized that he was sleeping on Gabriel immediately the second he woke up. It was not the familiarity of his body, even if he did start to get to know that in detail, but the smell. He couldn't actually put a finger on it, he recognized the scent of sweets - honey or caramel - because Gabriel basically ate nothing but those so it lingered around him gingerly and Dean had a good enough smell to pick up on it, but beyond that he couldn't identify the other fresh and clear scent and he never smelled it before on anything or anyone but the angel so it was something distinctively unique he would recognize anywhere.
He turned from his side to his back, his head again in the angel's lap and he was greeted with Gabriel's face and almost golden amber eyes.
'Don't you get bored just watching me sleep?' he asked, he understood how the angel as a true celestial being made of pure light and energy could sustain his human body without any nutrition or rest perfectly but it still felt somewhat strange to sleep while Gabriel didn't.
'It is only a few hours' Gabriel answered easily. 'Besides I find myself enjoying the peace and seeing with my own eyes that you can actually be silent for a little while.'
Dean looked at the angel at those words for a few moments then rolled his eyes when he caught the slight smile appearing in the corner of his mouth. It was phenomenal that Gabriel was finally catching up with humor and he liked it despite showing annoyance.
'Well I know for a fact that you like me being loud too' he answered with a smirk.
'Loud and incoherent' Gabriel nodded seriously in agreement that made Dean laugh. It's not like they managed to do much in the past two days - well not everything - but just like with every other new thing the angel learnt really fast and he was beyond enthusiastic and eager. Dean figured that if he would've gone without for as long as Gabriel he would also get really enthusiastic about pleasure after getting a taste.
'Hmm... well I don't turn incoherent on my own... wanna do something about it?' he asked challengingly and he had an archangel on top of him ravishing his mouth the next second like he expected. Good thing they didn't bother with putting on any clothes back the night before.
Gabriel might've been smaller than him in his human form but he was stronger and Dean felt the edge of that strength in his every movement in the way the angel shifted them, pulling his body closer to his own. Dean has never lain with a man who was stronger than him, on the occasions he found himself in the mood for this he only ever picked humans. He didn't think that it would make much difference, but he found his body reacting more than it ever did before with any human male. Gabriel was so powerful he could practically taste it on his tongue, feel it on his skin even as his power was dimmed now, it was thrilling. The angel's dick lining up to his own was also just perfect. He moaned at the feel of it and buried his fingers in Gabriel's gold brown hair.
'You know' he breathed out when his lips were free, Gabriel moved down to mouth at his neck, oh he really learnt quickly how to make Dean hot. 'We could get some ladies to join our fun.' he offered and Gabriel raised his head to look down on him questioningly.'Would give you the chance to get to the main event and the more the merrier' he grinned. Gabriel's eyes narrowed, not in anger, but consideration.
'No' he said after a few moments.
'What do you mean 'no'?' Dean asked. 'I thought we established that this is good, don't you want more?'
'Yes' Gabriel told him. 'But I want it with you.' Dean just blinked at him.
'What? Why?' he asked in surprise.
'Because you I know, and trust' Gabriel said. 'Because all of this is new for me, you know all this better than I so whatever it is you want me to try I will, but with you. No strangers.'
Dean found himself staring at the angel for a long moment.
'I... I don't actually do that' he told him then.
'All right, can we continue what we started?' he asked and was about to lean back down but Dean stopped him.
'Wait a second, that's it? It's either me or you won't do more... with anyone?' he asked. 'That's like... blackmailing' he said. Gabriel smiled a little.
'It is not' he said. 'Since I don't demand it from you.'
'Of course you are.'
'You're the one insisting that I engage in such things' Gabriel reminded him. 'I'm merely telling you how I prefer to have the experience.'
Dean rolled that around in his head and grudgingly admitted that it was indeed not blackmailing, but still.
'Why the hesitance?' Gabriel asked suddenly. 'I was under the impression that you are enjoying yourself with me.'
'Yes, course I do' Dean answered, no question there. But Gabriel asked him to yield and he might've done a lot of things but he never bowed down to the will of another, there were gods who wanted to take him and he never succumbed no matter the consequences. Gabriel just looked at him curiously, no threat hidden in his words, no violence or the desire to conquer in his eyes and Dean wondered why he kept comparing him to the great gods when he was nothing like them.
He hooked a leg around Gabriel and rolled them both over swiftly, the angel went willingly and Dean straddled his hips and sat up once he was on his back looking up at him and reaching out to rest his warm hands on the demigod's hips, his fingertips stroking his skin idly.
'You're right' he said, he was thinking too much, he didn't have to be that careful with Gabriel, he was not one of the scheming great gods who saw everything as battle of wills or a game of power. It also hit him that while he might've been helping Gabriel to act like a god he didn't actually want him to turn into one of them. 'I should be your first' he continued quietly. 'No matter who comes after me, this you will always remember, so it should be with someone who's real good at it' Then he leaned down and kissed him, Gabriel kissed him back.
Dean took charge and rolled his hips down and the angel's fingers tightened on his hips at the friction, the demigod also bit his lips at the feel of it.
'Conjure up some oil for us, would you?' Dean asked when they parted. Gabriel looked at him for a second than his eyes glanced to the side, the demigod followed his line of vision then grinned when he saw the vial filled with the light-gold almost clear liquid. 'You got really good at creating' Dean remarked before he reached out to pour a liberal amount on his hand. No need to drag things out.
His surroundings shifted suddenly and he found himself on his back abruptly with Gabriel on top of him.
'What?' Dean asked.
'You're anxious' Gabriel observed.
'No I'm not' Dean objected right away, the angel looked at him meaningfully, but it only caused him to glare and Gabriel chuckled softly at that. The sound so unexpected that Dean forgot about everything for a second and stared up at the angel with slightly widened eyes and just like that all unease about the position he was in vanished without a trace. Gabriel entwined their fingers on one hand promptly smearing the exotic smelling oil Dean poured out before. He leaned closer and Dean was sure it was for a kiss, but Gabriel's mouth hovered above his own for a moment before he turned his head away. His hand slipped out from Dean's and he started to trail his finger along the inside of his wrist and his forearm moving up to his shoulder, leaving a wet shiny line of oil as he went. Then the two fingers became three as he stroked a line along Dean's collarbone then down to his chest, his golden eyes following his fingers and Dean felt his heartbeat picking up even from such a simple exploratory touch, but there was bare want in the angel's eyes and his hand moved with more certainty than expected.
'Aren't you supposed to be the virgin here I need to teach?' Dean asked.
'Inexperience does not equal naiveté' Gabriel told him. 'Besides, your body is something I already know well' he added, which Dean wouldn't have believed from anyone else after only two nights spent together but he believed Gabriel, he learnt everything damn fast after all.
'Or you are just too good at hiding what you really feel' Dean said and the look the angel sent him meant clearly that he hit pretty close to the mark. Gabriel's hand descended to his stomach and he smeared some of the oil there into his skin then he leaned down and put a kiss in the middle of his chest right above his heart. And that was a lot more affectionate than Dean expected anything to be between them.
'Gabriel?'
'You are undoing and remaking me Deandalon, every passing day, even every passing moment I am with you' Gabriel whispered to his skin. 'I - who am older than this world - is being reshaped by your hands, by your words... so what I really feel is that you're the being that builds up my new world and first or not first I will bear your marks forever now... so do not act like what I want now is trivial or if it is for you or just an inconvenient chore... I am leaving.' He raised his head and locked his amber eyes on Dean after he finished talking and the god just stared back at him for a moment in utter surprise. Gabriel turned serious so quickly that Dean almost found the change hard to follow.
'What do you want from me then?' Dean asked.
'I want you to understand that I am not just some bar-wench warming your bed for a couple of nights so don't even try to threat me like that. And that if you don't desire what I then say no and we are done, don't insult me by acting like you are doing charity with this.'
Dean blinked a couple of times and it took him a few moments to wrap his head around everything the angel said.
'What? You want a love declaration?' he asked, he was still confused and he always reacted with anger when he was.
'I want you to stop degrading this!' Gabriel snapped at him his face darkening with the first traces of anger and they were still close enough so Dean could feel how the angel's body went rigid with tension. Dean reached out after a long and heavy silence fell between them putting one of his hands on the side of the angel's neck despite it being still covered with oil. Gabriel's brows were furrowed and the sharp angry lines he was used to see a few weeks back returned. Dean moved his hand down from his shoulder to his chest and only stopped when he reached the spot where he could feel the angel's heart beating strongly under his skin. Gabriel raised his hand to his and covered it, wrapping his fingers around his tightly, keeping it in place but his face was still all hard edges and his body was still stiff with tension, his amber eyes focused on a random spot in the room and not Dean's face.
Dean reached out with his other hand too putting it on the angel's cheek, trying to get him to turn his face back towards him, Gabriel resisted but after a second he turned his head a little and put a kiss on his palm, then the inside of his wrist. Dean watched as the angel took a deep breath then turned to look at him, and there was more affection in that one glance than Dean ever remembered being on the receiving end of.
'Will being honest keep you here even after I stop being useful to you maybe?' he asked and no matter how neutral he wanted his tone to be he couldn't stop the hint of raw disbelief filtering into it, because he knew it wouldn't.
'Dean...'
'I know it won't, so just don't--' Gabriel silenced him with a kiss and Dean forgot to protest.
'If it was only about your usefulness I would've already left' Gabriel whispered not moving his lips away only by an inch from Dean's. 'I want you, so tell me... do you want me the same?'
'Yes' Dean answered, unable to give anything but a straight answer. Gabriel still held his hand cradled to his chest and his dark golden eyes demanded his full focus capturing his gaze and not letting go for a second when he backed away a bit more to look at Dean's face.
'I care for you, do you care for me the same?' the angel asked. Dean felt as his chest tightened with anxiety, how could Gabriel demand this of him, to speak so openly?
'Yes' he breathed, that one word felt like it was splitting him open, tearing up his chest until it was raw and vulnerable, a gaping hole where it was easy to stab.
'I will stay as long as you want, you have nothing to do but ask' Gabriel said next.
'Just like that? Truly?' Dean asked in return.
'I don't do anything halfway, Dean. You're either mine completely or you are not mine at all.'
'And are you mine in return?' the god asked skeptically, but maybe, just maybe there was the barest hint, the smallest sliver of hope in his voice when he asked.
'I left everything behind so I have no one else to belong to.'
'But... I'm just... just a trickster' Dean said, he was way below the level Gabriel could've aimed at.
'So am I' Gabriel answered with a real smile, one that was wide enough that it almost showed teeth, and that was still such a novelty to see on his face that it made Dean swallow down his words to just look at the curl of his lips fondly. 'Let me have you' Gabriel asked of him next.
'Yes' Dean answered him, this time without a second thought.
