Summary
How do you write someone a last note? One that will be fitting for a death bed? One that expresses all your thoughts and feelings for them? But doesn’t seem too schmaltzy or ham-fisted?
Do you try to make them laugh? Remind them of the fun times when you lost your breath, clutched your side, fell to your knees from laughing so hard? But then will reading those stories make them laugh now, that once innocent breathlessness reminding both of you of how sick they really are?
Stede reaches out his shaking hand and places it on top of Ed's, rubbing the ring found there with his thumb. Ed’s breathing comes in ragged shakes, but he snorts at the touch and slowly blinks to look up at Stede. The corner of his eyes crinkle, so much warmth still in them.

Summary
Stede was all limbs.
One leg was so far off the bed his big toe was lightly grazing the floor, he'll be lucky if he didn't get a splinter.

Summary
Ever since Castiel has been back home after three months away, Dean has ramped up Friday Night Movie Nights. Spending some one-on-one time with his best friend (and secret love of his life) is great, but everything changes one night when Dean dozes off, cuddles up to Cas on the couch, and confesses his feelings for him in his sleep.
Equal parts stunned and elated to learn that his own feelings aren’t unrequited, Cas decides to show Dean that it’s mutual. So, he sets about planning the perfect evening for Dean’s birthday, including his favorite burger place, a romantic walk through the snowy park, all ending with a movie night and hopeful love declaration.

Summary
Stede and Ed move across the floor, feet tapping and hair twirling, Ed dips Stede three times in a row, each one getting lower and lower that they both practically end up on the tile.
The dark clouds threatening rain all afternoon finally deliver on their promise, interrupting Stede's attempt at an elaborate realistic chicken dance and Ed holding a candle solemnly in front of his chest as Pokey LaFarge's "Sister Andre" plays.

Summary
Ed wakes up first every morning during the early hours when the sun is just cresting the horizon. The golden rise just peaking through so no pesky beams to intrude on their slumber, or try to blind and force them awake.

Summary
Dean’s jaw clenches and he stands his ground. “Say it again,” he says because he needs to know if what Cas said before was true and real and not something his mind made up. He's done that before, and the truth hurt more than what he made himself believe. He doesn't want this time to hurt but braces himself for it all the same. Because really, when is he ever allowed to be happy?
_~_~_~
After Jack pulls Cas from the Empty he heads home. To the Bunker. To Dean.

Summary
So the man crouching in front of Castiel is named Dean. He wonders if that’s supposed to mean something to him.
“Cas must’ve got hit with something earlier. He just dropped like a sack of fucking potatoes a minute ago. By the time I was checking on him, he had already woken up again, but now he doesn’t fucking know who we are.”
“I’m right here you know,” Castiel says testily.
Sam’s eyes are wide even as his eyebrows are furrowed, and he looks between Dean and Castiel again.
“What do you remember, Cas?”
“Firstly, that I’m not Cas. I don’t know who Cas is, but it’s not me. I don’t know who either of you are, either."
or the one where castiel is hit with a memory curse that makes him forget the winchester brothers and is stunned to find out he has a family... also why can't he stop thinking about dean?

Summary
Five years have passed since Castiel Milton killed the co-founders of the homophobic Haddonfield Baptist Church, also known as his parents. Five years that Castiel has spent in total silence on the secure ward at Smith’s Grove Sanitarium.
But when Castiel’s psychiatrist (and aspiring true crime writer) Chuck Shurley reveals that Haddonfield Baptist Church is going to be resurrected under new leadership, Castiel escapes the sanitarium. His goal: to cut the head off the snake once again.
He doesn’t expect to meet and fall for Haddonfield resident Dean Winchester, who turns out to be a kindred spirit in ways Castiel could never have guessed.
Shame there are a few things that stand in the way of their happy ending: two hateful pastors, an irritating co-worker, the ghosts of childhood, and a writer who’s determined to make himself the hero of the story.

Summary
Castiel Novak’s dream of the perfect family and the perfect life went to shit the day his wife was killed in an automobile accident. He is left to raise his 8 year old daughter, Claire, on his own. He struggles with balancing being a father to his daughter and running the company (military weaponry) he started with his wife, Amelia, on his own. When he starts receiving threats on his life from his competition, he hires a bodyguard to protect Claire. He just hadn’t planned on falling in love in the process.
Dean Winchester didn’t know where his life was headed when he left the Army. He struggles with finding employment when the only job experience he has is being Special Ops and having too many kills to count. When his surrogate father, Bobby, tells him that the CEO of the largest supplier of military weaponry is looking for a bodyguard for his 8 year old daughter, Dean figures he has nothing to lose and accepts. He just hadn’t planned on getting emotionally attached to the girl and falling in love with her father.
When Castiel is away on a business trip and Dean is shot and Claire is kidnapped, both men make it their business to get her back by any means necessary, even if they have to murder the world to do it.- Language:

Summary
Dean Winchester and his brother Sam moved to the east coast to try their hand at the hustle and bustle of the city. Leaving their precarious and somewhat confusing past behind has been the best decision they ever made - that is, until the local mafia sets their sights on them. In order to protect Sam, Dean allows himself to be recruited into Castiel Krushnic's unconventional mob. There's something strange about the boss, though. Dean can't quite put his finger on it.
That doesn't make him want to punch him in the face any less.
Men are going missing throughout the city, and Castiel swears he'll get to the bottom of it. Dean, blackmailed into loyalty, has no choice but to follow Castiel on the ensuing chaotic journey to save innocent civilians.
For the record, Dean still wants to punch the asshole in the face. But hey, he'll do his best to save the world, first.
