Summary
Some guys don’t know how to take no for an answer. Lucifer is one of them.
Most people in Dean's position would do something civilized, like threaten to flatten Lucifer's snooty face with a lump hammer or file a restraining order.
Instead, Dean concocts a scheme to make out with the hot (and weird) philosophy major that his buddy Ash buys weed from.
It's not a gay thing, it's a proving-a-point thing!
(Okay. Turns out, it might be a gay thing.)

Summary
Their senior year in high school, Charlie dares Dean and Castiel to play a game of gay chicken which they both reluctantly accept. Their friends wait impatiently to see who will chicken out first, but they’ve all given up on that happening when they show up to their 20-year high school reunion having been married for 14 years and both of them still thinking they are straight and in denial that they are in love with each other.
This is based on a prompt from a meme on the Destiel forever Facebook group:
In high school I was dared to play “gay chicken,” which is where two straight guys pretend to be gay, and the first one to chicken out loses. The other guy and I are really stubborn, and neither one of us wanted to lose. We’ve been married 14 years and run a bed and breakfast in Vermont with our adopted daughter. If that dude doesn’t chicken out soon, I’m going to start to suspect he’s actually gay.

Summary
The story in which the Winchesters’ final showdown with God ends differently. “If you think you could have written it better… then do it all over again without me,” Chuck says, and tosses the boys back through time to their twenty-something bodies and their first case together. Knowing now what they didn’t know then, Sam and Dean resolve to work smarter and not harder and nip the apocalypse in the bud. They start by saving Jessica, then John—but Azazel and Meg are on their tails, God is not on their side, and things just aren’t quite the same the second time around.
Meanwhile, Dean is still grieving the loss of Cas to The Empty—but now he’s got a second chance. Can he befriend the Angel Castiel all over again—without dying and being raised from perdition? Can he give Cas what he truly wanted before—and will the angel still want it? If Dean offers his heart, will Castiel take it, or break it?And how can they find the key to the bunker again, dammit?

Summary
It’s just a joke. Dean adding Castiel Novak to his “Celebrity Freebie” list is just a joke. Dean has a girlfriend, and besides, it’s not like he’s ever going to meet Castiel, let alone sleep with him. Right?

Summary
When Dean wakes up, clad in just a pair of boxers, in a bed that is definitely not his, in a room that is definitely not in the bunker, he wrongly assumes that he ended up going home with a stranger. That is, until he realizes Cas is beside him, equally undressed and fast asleep.
What the hell is going on?

Summary
As always I'm terrible at summaries, but here I am anyway.
You know the scene of Dean tap dancing in S15?
And the beautiful art Jackie did of that scene?Well, this fanfic was born because of these two things.
There was something about Jackie's art that spoke to me about the love and pain that Dean and Cas had to deal with, not realizing they could be together.
This Fanfic has 5 chapters, with an analysis of different moments from different points of view. And an ending that I partly want to leave in the hands of the reader.Bookmarked by writingirl (stitchingirl)

Summary
Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak were inseparable friends growing up in the too-small town of Heaven Falls, New York. But that all comes apart when, on the verge of leaving for college, Castiel tells Dean that he's in love with him. Dean doesn't say those three words back, so Castiel leaves, and builds a life as an attorney in Manhattan, where he convinces himself he has all the success and happiness he ever wanted.
Decades later, Castiel's brother dies in a tragic accident, and Castiel finds himself returning to Heaven Falls, and to everything he thought he'd left behind. A chance meeting in a bar leads to Dean making a confession to Castiel - he had always felt the same way, but was just too scared to say it. And an unexpected night with Dean makes Castiel to question whether he should return to to the world he once thought was his dream, or stay in the place that feels like his home

Summary
The night John Winchester dies, Dean drives aimlessly through the city until he finds himself stopping at a bookstore he’s never noticed before. He doesn’t know why he stops. He doesn’t know why he goes inside.
The place is warm and inviting, even if the shopkeeper is a little robotic. While browsing the shelves, Dean finds surreal books like histories where the Titanic never sank and JFK was never assassinated.
And then he finds his shelf: rows of books bearing his name. Some are pasts he never lived. Others are futures he never could have dreamed. All of them are impossible lives. The shopkeeper tells him the only way to leave is to choose one. When Dean refuses, the bookstore turns against him, plunging him into a nightmare with only one way out: choose.
What does free will mean in a place like this? And what happens to those who refuse to choose?
