Summary
Castiel hasn't done much preparation for the trip, too focused on ensuring Jack will be safe and well taken care of while he's away. Gabriel, he assumes, did even less to prepare for a week in the wilderness judging by the way his brother lounges in his canoe, paddle nowhere in sight. Sam looks a bit peeved, but is professional enough to keep his mouth shut.
Castiel had expected that Maine would be green, he's seen the brochures and heard it touted as ‘vacationland’ by coworkers who summered with the wealthy on the coast, but he hadn't thought that the Allagash Wilderness Waterway would be any different than Central Park, albeit a version that went on for miles.
He feels like he's just woken up, that every day before this one in gray, sterile offices and penthouses was just a dream.
The woods go on for miles in every direction, the water is cool and clear, there's grime under his nails, sweat beading down his spine, and when he turns around from his seat in the front of their canoe to see Dean's sparkling smile he feels a pull he cannot deny.
He's really not prepared for any of this at all.

Summary
Dean's dreamed of a beach vacation for years, though he pictured something more tropical than frigid New England waters. That's just the start of his problems: Sam's bailed before the trip even began, the only reason they're going to the beach in the first place is because two grocery store lobsters are pissed at him, and Cas - who's pulling some sort of deranged Disney princess thing - has decided that's his problem, and on top of all that Dean's starting to think maybe Provincetown is just a little more colorful than your typical beach town.

Summary
It's been a month since Castiel was retrieved from the Empty, and Sam's enjoying the peace, though everyone has been relaxing into retirement in their own ways. Castiel and Dean have chosen to hot box the Impala and interrupt Sam and Eileen's movie night. Luckily none of them are going to have any weird reactions to the documentary on bird courtship dances.
Right?

Summary
When Buck, a Paralympic sprinter, agrees to go on Dancing With the Stars, he wonders if he's just made the worst decision of his life. But his love life is dead, his social life even more dead, and he doesn't know what to do with his life in the aftermath of the Paralympics, so why not jump headfirst into this opportunity?
Eddie has been a professional dancer on the show for years, but after a recent divorce and a disappointing showmance, he's fallen out of love with his job, with dancing, with himself. He has no hope for the next season, until he meets one Buck Buckley.
The pair feel an instant connection, but will it be enough to see them through the trials and tribulations of the next eleven weeks?

Summary
"It's not what it looks like," Buck blurts.
Bobby's eyebrows reach for his hairline. "So you weren't violating the one-firefighter-per-shower regulation?"
"We," Buck sputters. "I mean, okay, yeah. We were, but we—"
"We were figuring out breakfast," Eddie cuts in.
"Well, next time, figure it out in different stalls."

Summary
“Are you homophobic?”
“What?”
“Will you be my boyfriend?”
“Yes,” Eddie answered, automatically, even though his mind had volunteered several other pressing questions, like what are you talking about and what is happening and did I recently sustain brain damage.
“Thanks,” said Buckley, and then he pushed Eddie back against the side of the firetruck and kissed him.

Summary
“Hi, I’m Buck, a firefighter with the 136,” for now, the thought crashes through Buck, leaving a sour taste in his mouth. “Uh, you’re both welcome to take a tour with us, if you’d like.” Buck awkwardly scratches at his neck, running a hand through his hair, unsure what else to do, and it spurs the man in front of him to take a large step forward up to Buck’s bed.
“Eddie,” he says, thrusting a hand to him, and Buck reaches over without a second thought. His whole palm feels electric, it smarts and carries the touch of Eddie, Eddie, that Buck feels it completely. He has no idea what’s happening to him. “Edmundo Diaz, but just Eddie though, uh, no one calls me Edmundo. Right. I’m a new nurse here, at Cedars-Senai. Oh –”
***
When Daniel Buckley lives a little longer, Evan Buckley dies a little more. And this is how Eddie Diaz saves him, a little later on.

Summary
“It’ll go fine.” Howie advised. “I don’t like the idea of you being there alone,” he joked with a small little smile. “But it’ll be okay.”
“I’m not alone.” Maddie teased with a matching smile of her own.
“You’re right.” Howie conceded. “You have our scary baby girl to hold everyone off.”
Maddie snorted. “I meant -.”
“I know what you meant.” Howie sobered. “I like the idea of him being there even less.”
Maddie’s stomach jolted. “Do you think I made a mistake?” She asked cautiously. “Should I have told him not to come?”
Howie waved a hand to the side. “Nah,” he shrugged. “We both know Buck’s going to Buck.”
