    Summary

    Imagine the love of your life died two weeks before you were supposed to get married. Four years later, you move to a new town and you see him again, standing in the bread aisle of the only grocery store around.

    This is the position Dean Winchester finds himself, four years after his fiance Cas (now going by the name "Emmanuel Allen") supposedly died. Cas is insistent that Dean stays away from him, but Dean's not letting Cas go again without getting answers-- and it doesn't hurt that his not-dead ex-fiancee is still really hot.

    Title is a reference to "right where you left me" by Taylor Swift

    Summary

    It’s been several months since the events of 15x19, and the world is at ease. Dean Winchester isn’t, though.

    It takes a drunken night and a conversation with Sam for the Winchesters and a newly depowered Jack to start working on a way to get to the Empty to bring back Castiel, their angel best friend. After several weeks, the team enlist the assistance of the new Queen of Hell and find a spell. With Rowena’s help, Cas is finally back, alive, and for a moment everything looks brighter. Jack and Sam are ecstatic, and Dean’s had enough time to figure out what he wants to tell Cas. He’s ready to speak his truth.

    Except, Cas doesn’t seem to recognize Jack, and the first thing he does is ask Dean how he’s managed to get rid of the mark. He doesn’t remember that Chuck, the flimsy prophet he met years ago, was God and that they just beat his ass. Actually, there’s a lot he doesn’t remember… Including telling Dean he loved him before getting taken by the Empty.

    Now starts a different quest- figuring out what’s keeping a newly human Cas from remembering the past 5 years by their side, and helping him regain the memories he’s lost.

    Of course, as is custom for Winchesters, nothing goes as planned.

    Two Deans, one Cas - it's not as sexy as it sounds

    Or

    An ethics lesson from Hell

    Or

    The one where Dean from the past meets Dean in the present. They're not sure they like each other very much.

    Summary

    Brittle and battle-worn, Cas looks at him over coffee one morning and says, "I need to go," and Dean instantly knows that he's not coming back. 

    He's not really sure how he knows it, but he does. It settles into the pit of his stomach, curling hot and tight like something he instinctively wants to tear out with his bare hands. He takes a breath, and it gets stuck in his throat, hitching there. It hurts, hurts, hurts when he finally exhales. 

    "Yeah," Dean says, "of course you do," and he nods jerkily as he looks down at his phone. He doesn't say goodbye. He doesn't look up from the screen when Cas gets up and leaves the room. He doesn't finish his coffee, or move for a long time. 

    By nightfall, Cas is gone.
