Summary
Dean Winchester is on the run from the cops after a series of petty crimes. While looking for a place to hide, he catches the eye of his former junior college classmate, the socially awkward Castiel Shurley, and asks to crash at the Shurleys’ house.
Unbeknownst to Cas, Dean is the face behind John Q. Public—the anonymous frontman of a local punk band—with whom he has been sending suggestive photographs and love poems for the last few years under a pseudonym.
But secret identities are the least of their worries when the police are closing in, the band’s next show is drawing near, and the Shurleys refuse to let Cas fly the coop. They grow close as they rail against the expectations that stifle them both, teaching each other what it means to be a real punk rocker.
A Dinner in America inspired AU.

Summary
Pet groomer Dean Winchester has had a crush on Castiel Novak, his veterinarian friend, for quite some time now. He’s kindhearted, handsome and a devoted single father to his young, adorable—and quirky—son, Jack. But after a few hints from Dean, the feeling doesn’t appear to be mutual.
As for Castiel, Dean has been occupying his thoughts more and more since the summer. Fearing to complicate their friendship, however, Castiel figures it is best for him to put these ideas out of his head, focus on his son (and his very opinionated imaginary friend, Belphegor) and simply remain friends with Dean.
That is until they find themselves under the mistletoe.- Language:

Summary
Dean Winchester, a mechanic living just outside of town, is a man of simple tastes. He enjoys sleeping in when he can, he loves to savour a slice of apple pie after a hard day of work, and above all, he cherishes the tranquility and scenery of his remote residence.
While he is far from being antisocial, despite what some might say about him, he still prefers keeping to himself.
Which is why when he meets his new summer neighbour, Castiel Novak, who is a morning person planning on staying longer than the usual two-week tenants, Dean is annoyed.
When he gets to know the guy and realizes how smart, insightful and attractive Castiel really is, Dean then begins to worry.
But when he needs to remind himself how very much engaged the man is, Dean grows desperate and infuriated with himself for having fallen for him.If only he knew that Castiel has sought refuge at this charming house by the lake to reflect on certain aspects of his life, notably his engagement, which is much more of an agreement between friends than an actual engagement.
A fact that has been weighing on Castiel’s mind.
Until he meets Dean. Then, everything becomes very clear.- Language:

Summary
On his first day of college, Dean feels like a fish out of water. After years of working his ass off with several jobs at once to fund his brother’s studies, his family and friends have decided to pay him back.
That’s how he finds himself panicking in the lecture hall. Thankfully, a fellow student distracts him. She promptly becomes a good friend, and Dean has no idea how badly he will need her.
The moment he lays eyes on his physics professor, Dean is lost. Castiel Novak seems like the man of his dreams. And when the professor’s son appears from under the podium, several lives take an unsuspected turn.
