Every single day, Dean Winchester waits for the man in the trench coat to show up for his painfully complicated coffee at exactly three-forty-five. And every single day, he does. Until one day he doesn't. It's a regular Thursday afternoon when Castiel Novak seemingly drops off the face of the earth. Dean shouldn't look back, yet he finds himself intrigued by the quirky, blue eyed man and his sudden disappearance --- I don't own the characters, or Starbucks (obviously). The title and chapter names are also based off of The Fall by Imagine Dragons, and it isn't related to any of my other fics

Castiel moves in next to the Winchesters, befriending Sam and Dean. Chalk on sidewalks and cups with strings, that was ten years ago. Highschool rolls around and Dean begins to question his relationship with Castiel. **NOT MY FAN ART I SUCK AT DRAWING OKAY**

Sixteen-year-old Castiel Novak's life has never been anything but horrible. His father is abusive and his mother died of leukemia when he was five. On top of his terrifying home life, he is bullied at school due to circling rumors of Cas being gay. Living doesn't seem right for the depressive and suicidal teenager, and he soon plans his demise. That is, up until he meets Dean Winchester, an equally depressive seventeen-year-old who turns Cas's life around. Dean shows Castiel a new life, a reason to keep on fighting the fight, and the two soon realize just how much they need each other. This AU fanfic is all about how much Dean and Cas care for each other and just how far they'll go to stay together. Possible trigger warning!!!
