Summary
After a routine hunt turns strange, Dean Winchester finds himself reacting to Castiel in ways he can’t explain, and definitely doesn’t want to examine too closely.
The problem is, angels apparently come with instincts nobody warned him about.
Castiel is in heat. Dean is his mate. And Heaven is very interested in what happens next.
As hunts stack up, tempers flare, and the distance between them becomes impossible to ignore, Dean and Cas are forced to confront something far more dangerous than monsters.
Each other.
Or: The one where angel mating instincts collide with Dean Winchester’s emotional repression, and Heaven really wishes it hadn’t.

Summary
Their skill and family name a curse to those they hunted, Dean didn’t think there was much out there they couldn’t handle. With their dad hunting the thing that killed their mom, he and Sam fought the good fight. And that had been the status quo until he’s suddenly faced with an angel that swears he’s there to protect him but acts more like he’d prefer to eviscerate him on the spot.
When things go from bad to worse and its his brother’s blood that’s got demons popping out of the woodwork, Dean doesn’t know what to do – who to turn to. But if there’s one thing ingrained into him its this: protect Sammy, at all cost. So, when he finds himself relying on an angel that may or may not want to stab him, he figures he’ll do whatever he has to. And if by some miracle he managed to convince Heaven’s most grumpy angel that humanity was worth something, well…that was a bonus, right?

Summary
With a glance as they walk down the grocery aisle, Dean involuntarily lets out a soft, “Aw,” when he sees the way that Jack’s face is smushed against Cas’s shoulder, eyes shut and body relaxed heavily in the angel’s arms.
He can’t blame the infant at all for relaxing so easily in Cas's embrace. After last night, Dean can certainly attest to how comfortable it is.
TLDR: After one long year in the empty, Castiel is saved. Unfortunately, Dean finds himself still struggling to confront the feelings that both men are very well aware of, even though he now finally has the chance to be with the angel like he's dreamed of. Will a sudden curse placed on a loved one be the catalyst that forces those three words out of Dean after all?

Summary
After a vampire hunt went awry, Dean lost his memories. He forgot his time in hell, purgatory, and the soldier his father forced him to be. Monsters, angels, demons, and all these crazy creatures existed and Dean—well Dean…didn’t know how to feel about all that. His brother sounded like he spent one too many nights in a looney bin. The world sounded insane coming from Sam’s mouth. But Castiel felt real. Cas was there when Dean woke up. Always there when the panic attacks hit, sleeping in his room, and looking at him like he mattered. Dean drew the only conclusion that makes sense: they must be together.
Cas should correct him. He should tell him this was wishful thinking born from confusion and proximity from years of almosts. But Cas was human now and this version of Dean was softer and gentler than he’d ever known, untouched by years of trauma he buried deep. Who was he to ruin that perception? When Sam kept pushing to restore Dean’s memories, Cas found himself asking the question he never dared to before: Is the old Dean worth saving?
Season 9 rewrite. Amnesia fic. No Ezekiel.

Summary
Another “Cas comes back” fic. Because I believe in happy endings (even if you have to wade through pools of angst to get there).
“We wouldn’t trade you for the world, Cas. And I know you’re into all the self-sacrificing bullshit, but maybe it’s time to just settle down and let people—” he almost says love “—care about you.”
New chapter every Friday!

Summary
“But for an angel…we are intimately connected with the universe at large. Even what lies beyond it. And still, to know the placement of every star in every constellation and galaxy… only God would be able to replicate it perfectly.” Cas stares at him.
On the TV, images of galaxies appear, one after the other.
“What are you sayin, Cas? That you have a god complex?” Dean tries for a joke, but the look on Cas’ face says he doesn’t find it very funny. To be honest, it had already begun to fall flat on the way out of his mouth.
“No,” Cas shakes his head, “it’s just...the way that I see you sometimes.” He pauses to look at Dean fully, eyes searching his. There's an ache in Dean's chest. “I forget you aren’t an entire universe.”
or
When Dean sits down to watch some bullcrap Discovery Channel episode with Cas, he doesn’t expect to actually learn anything. Except, with Cas explaining, he makes an effort to connect the dots.

Summary
Dean struggles after Cas is taken by the Empty and Dean wonders how long he can hold out. Cas comes back right before things take a turn for the worse.
Sneaky peak:
Cas pulled Dean up to a stand and wrapped his arms around his shoulders, bringing him into a tight embrace. Cas was still unsure what he was allowed to do with Dean, since that conversation had not been brought up yet, but he thought he was very entitled to a hug right now. Dean hugged him back and Cas couldn't stop the smile from spreading across his face. Though as if reading his mind, Dean spoke softly.
"You can have me. You have me. Thank you for coming back to me Cas."
"Ill always come back to you, Dean"
(15x20 fix-it essentially because what the hell was that)
