Summary
When Cas comes back from the Empty, Dean gathers the courage to declare his feelings for him. Three years later, they have a home of their own and life is good. But Dean's been having nightmares and doesn't know how to make them stop. He doesn't let that get in the way of finally being happy, but then the unthinkable happens: John Winchester returns. Dean has changed a lot since they last saw each other, and he's at a place in his life where he decides to take this situation as an opportunity to tell John all the things he's wanted to tell him his whole life, about his and Sam's childhood, about Mary, about everything, and finally get the catharsis and closure he's been needing.
The first chapter can be read as a fully John-free standalone ficlet if you want the established domesticity but not the heavier part that starts when he shows up.
