The drive out of town was quick, Dean sticking to the back roads that he knew before finally turning on the highway. While no wolves had stopped them on the way out, the howling had him on guard and not breathing easily until they'd crossed the state line. Werewolves were fast runners, but even they couldn't keep up with his Baby.
Once the car was on the highway, the rumble of the engine was enough to lull Gabriel almost immediately to sleep. Pregnancies were quick, usually seven months or so, which meant his body was working overtime even at such an early stage. He barely stirred when Dean pulled off for gas and a refill on coffee before continuing on. Sam's apartment was still a few hours away and he had every intention of being there at first light.
It was just after dawn when they pulled up in front of Sam's building. Dean was haggard, but alert, on guard for any sign of trouble as they got out of the car and headed upstairs.
The warm, familiar scent of his mate was a welcome one and Gabriel finally felt some of the tension of the past day and a half slip away. He could breathe again, now that he was close.
