I've seen a lot of Destiel stories and most of them aren't as satisfying as I wanted! Not enough romance, or there was bad writing. So I figured I'd write one. In this story, Dean and Castiel are high school students. Castiel is new, and Dean notices him immediately. Feelings form, and eventually the temptation is too much. I encourage you to read this, even if the description doesn't sound as appealing as the story actually is:)

When the place he is meant to call home starts to feel like a test to his good-will and patience, Carter needs an escape. He might find just that where he least expects it, after meeting a smart boy with a snarky sense of humor and a secret he doesn't seem to good at hiding, who just so happens to be his football coach's son.
