Summary
26 year old Dean Winchester wakes up on a bunker floor with a knife in his hand and no memory of the man in the doorway who just whispered his name like it’s the only word he has left.
Five years after the world stopped trying to kill them, Dean and Cas have built something they never let themselves hope for. Coffee burnt mornings, bad jokes, a life that finally holds still. Then a cursed hourglass does what apocalypses and archangels couldn’t, and rips it all apart. Present day Dean is thrown back to 2005, twenty years into his own past, and the Dean who lands in his place has never heard of Castiel, never given up hunting, and sure as hell never fallen in love with an angel, who was dude-shaped.
Now Cas has to survive a version of Dean who doesn’t trust him, flirts with every waitress in a thirty mile radius, and looks at him like he’s the strangest thing he’s ever seen, while somewhere in 2005, a Dean who remembers everything is running out of time, running from his father’s worst instincts, and running headlong toward the ritual that might get him home, back to the man he loves.
Nine days. One hourglass. Two versions of the same stubborn Dean Winchester.
