It takes place a few hours after Mary Winchester left the bunker. Dean is heartbroken, Sam is drinking, Castiel and Crowley are looking for Lucifer. Cas can hear Dean in his head, and he drops everything to make sure he's okay. They have no idea that they love each other. They've been keeping it to themselves, their own personal struggles. But tonight may be the night that all changes. Is this moment in time the place to finally let all be exposed?

It's 1995, and Castiel's high school years are destined to be difficult: home-schooled until eighth grade, he is awkward, shy, and socially inept. The weird kid with the funny name would rather isolate himself and draw in his sketchbook than deal with the constant bullying he faces every day. Things only get worse in his junior year when he excels in home economics class, leading the captain of the baseball team, Alastair, to start taunting him for being gay. Then new student Dean Winchester arrives at Flour Bluff High School, sharing many of Castiel's classes. Castiel has seen his type before -- handsome, athletic, arrogant, and sure to be the most popular kid in school. But Castiel eventually learns that he and Dean have more in common than he thought, and they form an unlikely friendship.

The Bloody Valentine has been terrorizing the streets for years. Despite all their hard work, the FBI hasn't seen heads or tales of him. Despite never meeting, that doesn't stop Dean Winchester from dropping notes in the blood of his victims to whatever poor soul had the misfortune of being assigned his case. Next to murder, teasing them is his favorite passtime. But his feelings change when he meets Castiel Novak, the agent looking for him, and he realizes he may not hate the human race quite as much as he thought.

Dean got bored of sitting around in a supermax prison. So he escaped. *** Sequel to the "Wanted" ***

Meet Castiel Novak. He is 34 years old. An older brother. Uncle to two. Educated lawyer. Former place of residence: Pontiac, Illinois. Current place of residence: Prison, Illinois. Going to prison is an experience that easily can change anyone in just a matter of days. Not only their identity, but also their view of everything; all from the world around them, to themselves. This is something Castiel is so unfortunate to experience first-hand. He changes in ways he had never even dreamed of, and makes friends he had never before imagined to make. Especially one. One by the name Dean Winchester.

What if our four loveable idiots were fanfic writers and that's how they met? Sam, Dean, Castiel and Gabriel were all pretty normal people. At least in their normal lives they were. However each one of them would go home, get out their laptop, and either write or read. Gabriel happens upon the amazing fic of one of his fans, which strikes up a conversation between the two. Dean reads the saddest fic in the fandom and realizes the writer didn't actually get much direct credit. So decides to talk to them about it. And so the online ties that connect them begin...

When Cas meets an anonymous classmate on tumblr, he has a bad feeling about it. It turns out, that bad feeling was justified. <Destiel fanfic>
