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.

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

Becoming A Winchester
Imagine your life spun upside down and into a world that you didn't know existed. After being rescued by The Winchesters, you start a new life...living in the bunker with them and hunting with them. You find yourself needing to move on as you realize your feelings for the older Winchester is becoming too much for you. Do you try to bury the feelings and continue living in the bunker as a little sister to The Winchesters or do you find the courage to move on and forget you ever became one of The Winchesters? *This takes place after the series finale-except Dean is alive. ***Preview "What do you think about Dean? Are you like in love with him?" Sarah asked, tilting her head as she studied me. "I mean, you two are living together and sleeping together." I shake my head with a nervous laugh, "No, that's because I have nightmares from my kidnapping and I get scared. We aren't like actually sleeping together...you know, like sex.. no, no...that would be, well no." My over exaggerated defense does not go over well with Sarah. I know if I meet her gaze my cheeks will flare. "It wouldn't be so bad if you did. Just might want to do something before anyone else comes into the picture," my friend advised me. "And you are living together. You've been living with The Winchesters for several months now despite the fact that now you have a steady job at the university." "I guess it is time for me to find me a place of my own," I shrugged, staring mindlessly at the light brown liquid in my mug. I sip my coffee and take a look around the coffee shop. A couple sits in the far corner all cozied up. An elderly man and woman sit just a few tables away from me and Sarah. I longed for love like that, but it's not best for me to get into a relationship after all I've been through. I now know there is another world out there and the less people who know about it, the safer it is for everyone.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

Shatter
Dean gets a call about Bobby being in an accident, and breaking his leg. He's cleared from the hospital, but can't drive, and doesn't know anyone who can pick him up except his old friend Rufus, who's in another state, and Ellen, his wife, who's off with her daughter on a girls trip. And Dean of course. The problem? He has to leave Cas at the apartment, and the hospital is a five hour drive away. But Cas can be without him for a day right? -------- This story is part one of a series called "Leading Into Life". I highly suggest reading "Normality" before this. It'll probably make way more sense.Complete
