    Summary

    The first time Dean and Cas kiss, it's not really even a kiss at all. It is not, however, the last kiss that they share.

    ~~~

    Dean doesn't think about it. Not about what it means, not about what it makes them, not about how it affects him. This life—that's not how things work. It's just this, these "in the moment" moments that always slip right out of his fingers because he lets them. He doesn't try to hold onto them, and neither does Cas, and maybe they shouldn't.

    Cas kisses him like no one else does, like no one else ever has. Dean absolutely does not think about it unless it's happening to him, and then he doesn't have the ability to think at all. What does it say about him that he occasionally kisses his best friend, who's a man? Dean doesn't know, and he doesn't really want to find out, either.

    Summary

    Dean is so determined to be normal about Cas and what Cas said, so determined for things to get back to normal, that he starts counting his victories. First, he can touch Cas just like he did before--easy. He can comfort him after a nightmare--no problem. He doesn't even think about the fact that Cas is in love with him when Dean's moving around the bunker post-shower, as dressed down as he ever got before, just boxers and his robe closed over them. He's not even worried. Not even thinking twice about what Cas might see. Very natural, very cool; he can be cool about this.

    It's just that, along with that, he can't stop thinking about the fact that Cas is in love with him. And when they start watching that fucking schmoopy ass show with Jack, Dean can't stop thinking about that kid, Nick, and where his story's going to go. Why does it matter so much to him anyway?

    Summary

    Sam shakes his head. “Those spells work on the first person you see, so… that’s Cas.” 
    Cas raises his eyebrows and points to his chest in an apparent “Who, me?”
    “Dean, I’m gonna ask you again. Did the love spell take?”
    Dean can feel the spell inside him. It wants and wants, everything he's always felt turned up to eleven. "Yeah," he says.

    Love spell fic based on @whelvenwings's tumblr post that made me feel far too many emotions a couple weeks ago.

    Summary

    Dean didn’t know what to do, after.

    He had never thought there would be an after, not for him. There would be for Sammy, he’d make damn sure of that. But for him? He had always known, with a solemn certainty deep in his chest, that he would die young and he would go down swinging. He’d told Sam that, ages ago, back before there were angels and when demons were above their pay grade. 

    But he has to do something, so he buys a farm.
