Summary
-
The life of a monster hunter is a lonely one.
So when Dean one day meets the enticing innkeeper with those ridiculously blue eyes, he figures that the man would just be the right guy to chase that sensation away for at least a little while.
It should have been as easy as that, merely a simple hook-up. Or two.
But there is much more to the story and soon enough Dean is in too deep.

Summary
"So, no God, no wings, no imminent apocalypse, what are your plans now?" Dean tries to make the question sound casual by taking a sip of his beer.
"I want to have sex with a man," Cas declares, nibbling at a red vine cherry twist. He barely reacts to Dean spitting his beer all over the table and choking on his sip. (...) Cas tilts his head and adds, "I may need your help with that."

Summary
"Okay, let's be clear on one thing from the start. This is not a lifetime movie and I'm straight, so no falling in love, get it?"
"I get it, Dean," Castiel nods.
Well, that's it then, apparently Dean is going to a fancy engagement party with his new fake boyfriend. What a weird day.

Summary
-
Dean usually doesn’t go for nerds.
That’s why it’s more than a little weird why he’s suddenly being so utterly batshit crazy for Castiel Novak of all people.

Summary
Dean didn’t mean to open Castiel’s package. He really didn’t. But he did. And even after returning it, he can’t stop thinking about its contents.
Finding the website of the store definitely doesn’t help. And what he discovers about his neighbor?
Let’s just say it kicks the air out of his lungs… and sends all the blood rushing down.Bookmarked by txlep

Summary
Jack had just stepped back onto the main floor when he clocked movement at the ambulance entrance, two guys hurrying in, the smaller one helping a guy with a sweatshirt covered in blood. But something was wrong, some unnamable instinct rising within Jack at the way they moved. It was too fluid, too controlled. Jack knew what the walking wounded looked like, had seen it for years, from war zones to bar fights. This wasn't the injured seeking help; this was men hunting.
Time slowed, Jack's heart rate spiking, the adrenaline dump casting everything in sharp relief—the full ED floor, patients plus shift change meaning twice the usual personnel were here.
Robby was here.
That thought got him moving, Jack approaching laterally. He got there right as the guns came out.

Summary
Dean is thoroughly sloshed at a party, happy and relaxed, though he can't quite figure out why Charlie is laughing at him for saying Cas is pretty. Unfortunately, Cas retreats to Meg, and Dean can't handle seeing the way Cas blushes with Meg smiling up at him. So he calls an Uber to take him home.
While on the way there, Cas Facetimes him, demanding to know why he'd left the party, and Dean drunkenly explains it was just too much tonight, so he was going home.
Cas points out that the party was at Dean and Charlie's place, so where the fuck was he going?!

Summary
“I’ll be around,” Jack said serenely, as though he weren’t breaking Dean’s heart even further. “I’ll be in every drop of falling rain, every speck of dust that the wind blows, and in the sand, in the rocks, and the sea.”
Dean let out a shaky breath. “It’s a hell of a time to bail, man.”“I’m not bailing, I promise. And I even got you a present.”
Dean’s heart was hammering at the borderline smug look on his kid’s face, not daring to hope. Not even when the voice, rich with gravel, rumbled from behind him.
“Hello, Dean.”
Castiel is back and Dean decides it's time for him and Cas to get away together and communicate already.

Summary
“So, what’re you actually proposing here, Dean?” Bobby asked, greying eyebrows raised.
“I’m suggesting we watch the preview before we buy the movie,” Dean snarked.
Castiel’s look of confusion only deepened and, for once, Sam was right there with him. “…You know, skip a few chapters in the book. Check out the dessert menu before ordering dinner. I mean, if Zachariah can show us where the future’s heading, why not Cas?”
Dean's not thrilled about Sam's plan to say, "Yes," to the Devil and spend an eternity in the pit, so he proposes taking a road trip 15 years in the future to see how it all works out in the aftermath of the Apocalypse.
Sam had thought he was prepared for what awaited him in the future, but a pregnant fiancé, a human Castiel, and a married Dean were more than he'd been expecting.

Summary
The girl waves at Castiel, her bangles tinkling cheerfully. “Did you really let Claire get her eyebrow pierced?”
Castiel blinks and glances at his daughter. He’d assume that would be obvious, since she's still wearing her current favorite—a yellow-gold sixteen-gauge curved bar, with tiny cone-shaped spikes on either end. “Yes?” he finally answers. What a lot of fuss about a tiny piercing.
“Well, so what if she wanted a tattoo?” Emma presses. “Like. Just a little one. You wouldn’t have her sneak around and go to some scratcher, would you? You’d take her yourself and stuff. Since you know people in the industry. That'd be the right thing to do, yeah?”
Castiel’s eyebrows rise. Claire smiles, smug and pleased with herself.
“Um. That’s… I don’t…” he flounders.
“What the hell. Kiddo, I told you ‘no,’ so now you’re tryin’ to get your friends’ parents to tell you 'Yes?'” a warm, deep voice growls over Castiel’s shoulder. “What’s the matter with you?”
(In which tattoo artist Castiel meets the man of his dreams at his teenage daughter's school night.)

Summary
Castiel takes a deep breath and rings the doorbell. He doesn’t need to run through what he’s going to say – he’s already planned and edited and rehearsed it a thousand times. He is going to ask Dean Winchester out to dinner. If it’s not too forward, he’ll say, perfectly charming. You see, I’ve seen you around the neighbourhood and you always seem so earnest and I’d really like to get to know you bette— The door swings open, and Castiel panics.
He intends to excuse himself. He means to apologise and come back some other time. However, in a moment of blind fear, what comes out of his mouth instead are the words, “Could you spare a moment for Jesus Christ?”

Summary
Cas stretches out in the backseat while Dean takes up the front, and Dean’s pretty devoted to gritting his teeth until he can catch an hour or two of sleep, but sleep won’t take, and it just doesn’t take long at all for him to start shivering despite the layers.
After maybe half an hour of shivering, he hears rustling behind him, picks himself up by the elbows to peer over the back of the front bench, and sees Cas shedding clothes.
“... what are you doing?”
“I am preparing to share body heat with you,” Cas answers flatly, already out of his coat and jacket, unbuttoning his collared shirt and shrugging it off; his shoulders and arms look immense in the thin undershirt beneath.
“W-We won’t be doing that—”
