With the years since he left, Cas has started to see himself as a statue, rigid and permanent, forever the person he was when he walked out of that clinic. But then there is Dean, who never really left, and nothing makes sense.
The images start to come at him faster and faster, a new one with each slam of his heart. Da-dunk! Dean is laughing. Da-dunk! Dean is balancing on a log. Da-dunk! Dean is tying his shoes. Da-dunk! Dean is looking at him. Da-dunk! Dean is kissing him. Dean is touching him. Dean is hugging him, yelling at him, winking at him, smiling at him, sleeping beside him, laughing, singing, eating breathing existing. Dean, Dean, Dean, Dean. And something in Cas melts. He's crying. He can't breathe. The whole world is blurry, except for those green eyes. Those are the only things clear to him in the entire universe.

LONG DISTANCE ROMANCE
If you are stumbling across this it can be read independently of True Confessions, however you'll better understand this if you read True Confessions first. The second (and final) part to True Confessions. In this Dean and Cas are leaving for college, and Cas is in a happy little bubble where he believes Dean will follow him to Cambridge and attend school there because Cas doesn't want to give up his dream of attending Harvard. He doesn't take into consideration that Dean might have dreams of his own. They end up doing a long distance romance where Cas' own doubts and paranoia eat at him, and he ends up ruining the best thing that has ever happened to him. ***WARNING*** If you think True Confessions is full of angst, then please, grab a box of tissues before you read this, because this takes it a whole level higher. I like angst, and it actually caused me a lot of stress writing this as ny heart broke for Dean, but follow it through to the end. You'll be glad you did!Complete
What the Righteous Man Wanted (1 of 3)
"Cas, it's not going to break." Dean, just to prove it, stomps once, twice, three times against the ice. He even slams both feet down against it just for good measure, laughing when his foot slips and he crashes to the ice. "Dean!" Cas yelps, tears welling in his eyes and hands reaching for Dean. "Cas, I'm fine," Dean assures, moving to stand, eyes locked on Cas. Then the ice breaks, and Dean falls through. The last thing he sees is Cas' horrified face, helpless to stop him from falling before the cold hits him, stabbing the air from his lungs with fingers like knives and stealing every thought in his brain. He was pulled from the water that day, but later, he would remember the exhilaration of the ride and the joy of the laughter and the fear of the fall and the cold of the water, and he would think that that's what loving Cas has always felt like. A constant back and forth of laughter and cold, of warmth and sickness, of love and hate. Loving Cas has never been easy, but falling for him has always been the easiest thing in the world.Complete

The Last Spark
"Many things have happened, but that emptiness that haunts him wherever he goes, so ironically filling his soul, remained right there and Dean never spoke about it, didn't let anyone understand and feel it too. He knew that there would never be such a person to whom he could entrust it, who could save him from it, completely free him. He knew there would never be anybody who would need him the way he is. Dean was completely sure of it. At least up until recently. " OR AU where after the end of 11th season Dean gets sick after the hunt. He is stuck with Cas in the bunker, who takes care of him, while his powers are slowly fading away.Complete
Roommates
Dean's about to start medical school and he has been assigned a dorm room. With a roommate. As he and Sam head up to his new room he gets an ominous warning from the guy down the hall about Dean's new roommate. It unnerves Sam, but Dean thinks the guy can't be that bad. Right? Dean and Sam grew up happy with BOTH parents in this one. I thought about how to approach this one for quite a while before I actually started writing it. I thought, how can I get this to make sense? Why would a roommate run away? And then this came to me. So, for those of you that don't know, I based a lot of Cas' personality, quirks, and traits on myself since I have Asperger's. While I don't color coordinate my shirts in the closet, they DO have to all face the same direction, and I have more sensory issues than I'll bore you with here. I mention Dean's sensory issues as well here. While he doesn't show actual traits of Asperger's, he's on the spectrum too, and people on the spectrum still have related issues. The bluntness of Cas' questions are something that I did more often when I was younger, and a reason why people singled me out as weird or a freak. I had great difficulty distinguishing between when people were joking and making fun of me (therefore people thought I was stupid, and I was called as much, despite my higher IQ), so I tended to keep to myself. I still have difficulty initiating conversations, and my reaction to going into places like the party that will be mentioned here is much the same as I made Cas react. Parallels, as you'll notice.Complete
