Summary: Dean doesn't really know that much about his partner, or Gabriel's past. Even after being together for a few months, Dean is still self-conscious about their relationship and pushes himself to ask, wanting to know all he can around the archangel that always kept coming back.
As he watched Dean move about the kitchen to make breakfast, he could tell that today was the day the hunter wanted to dig, that there was something burning in the tip of his tongue since they had both sluggishly rolled out of bed.
"That's not what you wanted to ask me, Dean…" The archangel's eyes rolled away from him, moving to make more coffee. "What do you wanna know?" His eyes darted to the other, keeping his hands busy with filling it with fresh water. "I agreed that you could ask me anything."
Dean sighed, glancing at him and then away. He finished getting out the eggs and milk before he paused and scrubbed at his jaw before venturing the question that had started to worm its way into his mind days ago.
"Okay, so," he focused on making breakfast. " I know you've been around a while—"
"Understatement of the year, but yeah."
"Shut up, don't make it harder," Dean huffed, rolling his eyes as Gabriel snickered before raising his hands in surrender despite the obvious joke. "I just. I'm curious about who you um dated? Slept with? I guess if you haven't really been in a ton of relationships?"
It was something that they both had in common, at least they had said so the last time they had breached the topic. Dean didn't look at him, but he could feel those whiskey eyes watching him, studying him as he heated the pan. Both of them, even with Gabriel's long life, had a short list of meaningful relationships.
"Why do you wanna know that?"
The hunter frowned at the even tone, at the tone that was so controlled, trying to hide his worry.
Dean sighed, still not looking up from the battery he was making. "I've told you about my ex's I wanna know," he insisted, finally turning to the archangel who now looked more than a little cagey. "I just wanna know you, Gabe."
