Summary
Dean Winchester was not lonely. He wasn’t annoying or ugly. Dean was a pretty cool guy. Too bad no cute guys in a 100-mile radius had realized that, yet. In all honesty, Dean was pretty great. He had a nice job, a nice car, and he wasn’t bad on the eyes. So, why was he sitting on his couch eight days before Thanksgiving, scrolling through the “casual encounters” page on Craigslist? Shut up.

Summary
Castiel Novak is used to change. He's used to being the new kid in school. So when he moves with his family to the small town of Rail Pass, he doesn't expect things to be much different than the last three towns.
But then he meets Dean Winchester, an aggressive fellow student who sees Castiel as the shiny new toy he and his friends get to mess with. Castiel has had his fair share of bullies in the past, but nothing like this. He's never felt this way about a bully, or anyone for that matter, before. Maybe something's wrong with him, that he could feel so attracted to someone who makes his everyday life hell.
But then again, he sees the way Dean looks at him sometimes. And there's a lot more to Dean Winchester than meets the eye.- Language:

Summary
For the most part, Dean got along with everyone. Or at least could fake it. Dealing with Castiel Novak was a completely different story.
Three very distinct things were working against him.
The first being he flirted with anything remotely attractive that moved, and ignored customers in his attempts to warm his bed at night. It wasn’t as though he was just an alpha. He was a fuckin’ alpha on steroids, who had a one track mind when it came to getting laid, which just so happened to be every. Single. Night.
The second was the fact that he came into work high as fuck most nights, and Dean could always count on it Fridays and by the end of his shift Sunday.
But his third problem?
Castiel Novak was hot as fuck. Like he had walked right out of one of Dean’s wet dreams, and he hated how much his body craved him. He hated him on paper: slut, hard drug user, street drug seller, who knew what else was on that list. But he wanted him. Bad.

Summary
What begins as a transforming love between Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak in the summer of 1965 quickly derails into something far more tumultuous when Dean is drafted in the Vietnam War. Though the two both voice their relationship is one where saying goodbye is never a real truth, their story becomes fraught with the tragedy of circumstance. In an era where homosexuality was especially vulnerable, Twist and Shout is the story of the love transcending time, returning over and over in its many forms, as faithful as the sea.

Summary
Dean now has custody of four archangels. Four archangels that have the bare minimum of grace they need to survive. Oh and they are all in children's bodies with almost none of their memories. To say that this is going to be an adventure is an understatement.

Summary
You know what sucks? Friggin’ crushes. They fucking suck. Dean Winchester is a full grown, manly man. He does not get butterflies in his stomach when certain pretty boy teachers smile at him in a particularly friendly manner. Except he does, and it’s a fucking problem! He couldn’t be blushing in front of his students every time Novak stopped by to borrow a pen, or a copy of the new worksheet, or because apparently his projector broke every week and he just had to have Dean come and fix it for him. His students were starting to notice.
