Trigger Warning: self harm and discussion around depression.

{Destiel High School AU} Dean always had a hard time growing up, it was a wonder how he managed to survive for as long as he had. It seemed like no one could raise him from the pool of self-loathing he was drowning in, that is until Castiel climbed over the barrier Dean had up for so long. Maybe he could have a happy ending after all? {Major Trigger Warnings: I don't want to give anything away (because that's no fun) so please message me if you're worried about anything!}

Part 1 of the infamous series. Feelings appear. Sparks fly. Love rises. Problems occur. Please note: This story is now very old (7 years old in 2020) and I'd like to think my writing has improved since then! There are a bunch of cringey parts and bad writing in here, but enjoy and thanks for reading! :)

[debating if I should make a second part] • I promise you this is really sad! Some may cry and some won't. Some may feel sad and some won't. But it's all up to you on how you'll feel. Hey, this may even be the saddest story you'll ever read!
