Cas has been dating Aaron for six years now, and he loves it. Mostly. Sometimes Aaron loses his temper, but it's okay. He still loves Cas. Cas just has to make sure he doesn't upset Aaron. But one day Cas meets Dean. Dean is funny and beautiful and confident, and Cas likes him a lot. They start to hang out more and more, and Cas starts to realize that relationships don't have to be the way his is. But he can't leave Aaron, they love each other. Right?

Dean Winchester has been going to Souix Falls High School ever since moving to his sort-of-uncle Bobby's place in his sophomore year with his brother Sam. He doesn't expect his senior year to be that enjoyable, but then he meets Castiel Novak, new senior and mute since he was seven. Dean has never fallen for someone harder, and Castiel doesn't seem to want anything to do with Dean. Cas asks Dean to stay away from him, but Dean just can't help himself...

Castiel never liked people, and although he has nothing against his college room mate Dean personally, he finds that Dean is no exception. But Dean seems to like Cas like no one ever has before, and Cas is starting to think maybe people aren't all bad.

Dean doesn't like new schools. He never has, and Souix Falls High School is no exception. Luckily, though, he finds a friend group that accepts him. Almost at once, Dean is attracted to the local bad boy, but his new friends tell him so many stories about Castiel Novak, he begins to wonder if he's really so bad after all. Warnings: self-harm and unhealthy relationship.
