Summary
As a kid, Dean’s dreams were pretty straightforward: food, a roof over his head, and maybe – if he really let himself dream big – a family that wouldn’t kick him out the second he became more trouble than he was worth. College? Not on his radar. Suddenly he’s here, though – on a football scholarship and faced with the possibility that this time he might get to stay.
For someone more well-adjusted it would be a dream come true. For Dean it’s a nightmare of desperately keeping up appearances while he’s drowning in other people’s expectations.
At least until a game of Truth or Dare sends him face-first into the arms of Castiel Novak. Senior. Resident (ex-)drug dealer. Obnoxious literature major. Heavily tattooed and everything Dean is trying to leave behind.
Dean needs a favor and Castiel is all too willing to deliver. Unfortunately the offer comes with strings attached that go well beyond the fake relationship that Castiel asks for in return.

Summary
In the hay loft of an old barn, two lost boys find each other.
The first time, they’re children, with their fathers’ bruises on their bodies and a connection that wasn’t meant to be.
A decade later, the bruises have solidified, sunk into their bones. Dean carries it like a thin veneer of devil-may-care charm, using it as a shield from anything too real spilling out. In Cas it swirls as a smoky darkness under the white shirt and silver cross of being the pastor’s son.
Their connection still isn’t meant to be, but Dean can’t stay away, even if the friendship threatens to destroy both of them.

Summary
There are some things – experiences, places, people – that you just never get over. For Cas that’s Dean Winchester. It usually helps that there are a thousand miles separating them, but back in his hometown for Christmas, ending in the backseat of Dean’s car is as inevitable as the holidays being a yearly disappointment.
[High-school boyfriends turned to exes turned to bad choices in the back of the Impala turned to maybe not such bad choices after all]

Summary
It's been years of watching Dean and Cas dance around their feelings and at this point, Sam's losing hope that they'll ever take that step and talk things out already. One well-placed spell from Rowena makes Dean and Cas incapable of not talking, but even that doesn't get them together. Will Sam ever be able to help the morons he's forced to live with get together already, or is he destined for a life of perpetually being stuck between them as some sort of bizarre marriage counselor that neither seems aware the other also talks to?
