    Summary

    Dean Winchester is living his best life, content and thriving as a private chef in the Hampton’s for a prestigious couple, Chuck and Naomi Novak, and their son Michael. Asked back for his fourth summer in a row, Dean’s more than ready to tackle his daily to-do lists to keep his kitchen stocked and his meals fresh. With a paycheck good enough to cover Sam’s tuition and room and board included, Dean thinks he’s got it made, another easy summer doing what he loves best, cooking.

    Until the Novak’s youngest son Castiel shows up and turns everything upside down. Sure, Dean has no trouble navigating a kitchen, but when it comes to a carefree, handsome wild card and matters of the heart, he may lose all sense of direction.

    Summary

    Castiel Novak is relatively happy living his solitary life as a Starbucks Barista. He lives alone with a cat named Hamburger, and he has one (1) emotional support friend, Gabriel.

    Unfortunately, he is plagued by the fact that some guy (see: a random hot dude named 'Dean') is giving out Castiel's phone number as his own. And he's been doing it for months.

    So, of course, when Castiel's at work and a hot stranger gives him his own phone number for the Starbucks Rewards Program... well... it doesn't go well.

    Summary

    Castiel is a rare omega. Not only does he resent his place in society but has spent a lifetime suppressing his true instincts. He takes a night job as an emergency services dispatcher so he can hide away from a world he has no place in.
    Over the years Castiel has developed an obsessive and very real phobia for everything that threatens his solitude. He has recurring nightmares that terrify him and fill his mind with images of being taken and claimed against his will.
    He only wants to be left alone and unmated but fate must have other plans for him when he unexpectedly meets someone who seems to want to help.
    He starts to suspect his protector is actually an alpha male who wants to claim him for life. Castiel is scared he might not be able to stop himself from falling in love.

    Summary

    Castiel Novak and Dean Winchester have virtually nothing in common: they’re both from different countries (Cas would argue that Canada and the US aren’t that different but Dean begs to differ), they come from wildly different types of families, and where Castiel excelled at school Dean failed. When it comes to their social skills they’re also diametrically opposed: Dean is outgoing, funny and easy-going; Castiel is more of an introvert who likes books and still has to see any Star Wars movie.

    In real life though, Castiel Novak and Dean Winchester are both professional soccer players with the same position in concurrent teams.

    It would be complicated enough as it is, but Dean and Cas have also been a couple for several years, hiding their relationship from the public and homophobia in the world of soccer while living in Europe away from their families.

    Can they make it through another season without cracking?

    Summary

    Imagines/fills in the gaps of the 12 year relationship between Dean Winchester and Castiel that led to the "Despair" confession scene and envisions that the confession scene was really just the culmination of a physical relationship/"profound bond" that turned into something else (for both of them). Canon-compliant, just "in between" that canon.

    Not written in order of events.

    Summary

    What do you get when you add Firefighter!Dean to standoffish-Doctor!Castiel?

    A thousand other fics, you say?

    Aaaand what’s your point exactly??!?!

     

    Dean likes his doctor, but his doctor doesn’t like him.

    Accidental friendship ensues, heartwarming bonding type moments occur, and oops!friends become best!friends.

    But best friends aren’t supposed to feel the way Dean feels about Castiel. He knows this. So he ignores all the things that he can’t help feeling. When he sits and watches a movie with his best friend or when they are arguing about which method of coffee brewing is best, he pointedly doesn’t look at his friends lips, or the adorable way he tilts his head when he doesn’t understand.

    Dean ignores his feelings.

    That’s the way he knows how to keep his best friend.

    Just ignore the butterflies.

    Summary

    At thirty-five years old, Shy, bookish Castiel Novak always plays by the rules. And the rule is that shy, awkward men like him don’t get guys like confident, intelligent Mick, heir to Castiel’s heart since their College years. But Mick’s been in London for three years, and Cas has been reinventing himself so that when he returns, he’ll fall head over heels in love with the new him. So he’s not that interested in other men. Until his best friend Meg points out that if Cas wants Mick to think he’s an experienced love-god and not the awkward, skinny guy he left behind, then he’d better get some experience. What Cas needs is someone to show him the ropes, someone like Meg’s boss Dean Winchester. Cocky, and at the age of thirty-eight an eternal bachelor. And since he’s a self-proclaimed Equal opportunity lover and so not Castiel’s type, he certainly won’t fall for him. Because Dean just isn’t for him….right?

    Summary

    Four years ago, Dean graduated from high school and went full-time with his job at his godfather Bobby's auto shop. Two years ago, Dean's mom passed away, leaving him in charge of his younger brother Sam and the house. This summer, Dean realized he couldn't keep the house on his own, Sam went off to college, and Bobby dropped a bombshell: he's terminally ill and planning on leaving the auto shop to Dean.

    Dean jumps to fix all the problems. He's got to find a boarder to afford the mortgage, attempt to micromanage his brother's life from across the country, ignore Bobby's imminent death, and contemplate getting an automotive repair certificate from the local community college.

    There are just a couple of problems: he can't control everything, Bobby's not going to let him ignore reality, deciding to go back to school is harder than it seems, and his boarder is none other than his high school friend and crush, Cas, who is back in town to teach at the local elementary school and, apparently, turn Dean's life upside down even more.

    Summary

    Mary Winchester died in a presumed-accidental house fire in Queens, New York in 1983. Nearly 40 years later, her sons, Dean (now an EMT) and Sam (a New York City corporate attorney) discover that their father, now-retired cop John Winchester, intentionally set the fire that killed their mother, and Dean finally gets his revenge.

    Queens County District Attorney Castiel Novak knows that Dean Winchester is a suspect in John Winchester's murder - but he also knows that his own father was once a likely-corrupt judge who helped John escape punishment. Against what might be his better judgment, he lets himself get too close to Dean. And even as the cops build their case against Dean, he knows that, maybe, the right thing to do is help Dean Winchester get off (yeah okay pun intended).

    Summary

    On the day of his 29th birthday, Dean receives an email from his old nemesis: Michael Milton, the guy who got him kicked out of college and stole his girlfriend. The email contains encoded images with top secret CIA/NSA intelligence – and now their only copy is in Dean’s brain. Both agencies send their best operatives – Castiel Novak and Victor Henriksen respectively – to handle their accidental asset and protect the invaluable data in his head. To justify their sudden appearance in Dean’s life, they adopt covers: Victor as Dean’s new co-worker and neighbor, Cas as his new boyfriend. Needless to say, Dean’s brother and his girlfriend are thrilled to see him in a relationship they believe to be real. Clearly, there’s no way this could go wrong.

    (NBC’s Chuck AU).

    Summary

    When FBI agent Dean Winchester was first assigned to the Ghost’s case, he was expecting it to be the same as any other serial killer hunt--frustrating dead ends, a trail of bodies, unending paperwork. What he wasn’t expecting was for it to be interrupted by a mysterious alpha calling himself Cas, knowing far too much about him and offering up not just a lead, but concrete information on his mother’s killer.

    As the two set off in search of justice for Mary Winchester and the countless other victims of Azazel Masters, Dean struggles to come to grips with himself. Despite his whirlwind attraction to Cas, he knows that exposing himself to his colleagues as an omega instead of the beta he pretends to be would be a mistake. Nothing can happen between the two of them; not without Dean losing everything he knows.

    But resisting the mysterious alpha isn’t nearly as easy as he anticipated--no matter the dark secrets the man carries with him.
