"Y'know, what is up with the whole biting of the abdominal muscle crap anyway? I mean, how even do you like, get your jaws to like, open and clamp ?" Stiles asked, trailing off and using his curled fingers to prod at his stomach in lieu of a werewolf's mouth.
Derek gave him one of those patented what the fuck Stiles? glares before turning back to the tv screen. He uselessly pressed buttons on his controller, trying to unpause the game but as Stiles was the one who had paused it in the first place his efforts were a no go. He sighed, dropping his controller, and Stiles takes a moment to wonder when his life got so strange that it's to
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep."
Dean had nearly been asleep in the high branches of a non-living tree when Cas's voice roused him. He lifted his head from the angel's shoulder, not even bothering to fake embarrassment anymore, he'd rather lose his claim to manliness than become separated from his only tie to reality.
"Are you quoting poetry at me while I sleep?" he asked, attempting to stretch his limbs without falling from the branches.
Cas turned his face to Dean's, his eyes luminous in the everlasting moonlight. "I have promises to keep,
Sam doesn't tell his parents that he and Gabriel are now dating. It's not that he thinks they won't accept it, he knows they will because they've never had an issue with Dean and Cas's relationship. But he does know they wouldn't be so easy going about Sam spending the night at Gabriel's apartment, and he wants that freedom, not only because it means they can mess around without getting caught, but because it's something Sam's always done. Gabriel is still his best friend, that hasn't changed, it's just evolved into something more.
Gabriel doesn't like the plan as much as Sam does though.
"It just feels like I'm lying to your parents Sam

A Kiss in the Afternoon
Gabriel's bedroom was dark when Sam woke up, but even the lack of light didn't stop the pounding in his skull. He groaned, and just that small noise made his head hurt more. He rolled over, searching for Gabriel's warmth, but Gabriel wasn't in his bed. Sam groaned again, finally peeling his eyes open more than slits.
He tried to remember what had happened the night before but everything was either blurry or missing. He remembered drinking, he remembered bits and pieces of horror movies, and then he remembered Dean tucking him into bed. He remembered Gabriel coming in and-
Fuck.
He'd tried to kiss Gabriel. And Gabriel had stopped him.
On Sam's sixteenth birthday Gabriel gave him a key. He also gave him a beautiful leather bound copy of the Complete Works of William Shakespeare and a giant bag of sour gummy worms, but it's the key that Sam can't stop thinking about, can't stop slipping his fingers into his pocket to touch, can't wait to use for the first time.
It's the spare key to Gabriel's apartment. He's lived there for two months, and he wanted Sam to have a key sooner, but he decided giving it to him for his birthday would be more special.
It's Sam's favorite present by far. He got some great stuff too, the Shakespeare book from Gabriel, a Barnes & Noble gift card

Fools In Love Verse 2/?
Sam is not an unhappy person.
This, of course, has not always been true, in fact for the first thirty years of his life it was quite the opposite.
But now he has a relatively quiet life, relatively quiet in that there were no impending apocalypses and very few monsters out for his blood. Considering how his life used to be, it's undoubtedly peaceful. It's damn great when you factor in the house he's a partial owner of, and the archangel he has for a boyfriend. Boyfriend? Partner? Mate? What is the proper term for an archangel whose grace is molded to your soul?
Sam shakes his head and sighs, blinking up at the full moon as he stretch
"No," Sam said for the tenth time.
Dean flopped down on his bed, trying to mimic Sam's puppy eyes. "C'mon Sam, please?"
"No." Eleven.
"Dude, what else are we gonna do in this shithole town?" Dean whined.
"I was gonna catch some sleep and I assumed you were gonna go to a bar."
"Dry county," Dean sneered.
Sam made a sympathetic face. "Ouch. I'm still not going to the lame-ass county fair with you."
Dean pouted. "Asshole. I can't go by myself dude, a thirty year old man wandering around by himself at a fair? Looks all kinds of creepy."
Sam turned his attention back to his laptop, already done with the conversation. "Call Cas," he

Dean hears the familiar rustle indicating that Cas has popped in and he turns with a smile that quickly drops off his face when he sees his angel standing there, swaying side to side as if he could barely stand.
"Cas-"
"Dean I believe I am dying," Cas said before his knees went out from under him.
Dean shot forward and caught him, slowing his descent to the floor. His heart was racing, Cas looked awful, his eyes half lidded, his lips chapped worse than usual, his skin far whiter than what could be considered pale, his nose red
His nose red.
"Cas Do you have a cold?"
The angel sniffled miserably, leaning into Dean and pullin

"Carry on my wayward son,
There'll be peace when you are done,
Lay your weary head to rest,
Don't you cry no more "
Dean glanced in his review mirror. It was strange to see Cas asleep in the back. But then again, what about this night wasn't strange? "Aw, ain't he a little angel?" he heard himself say.
Sam glanced in the backseat. "Angels don't sleep," he said blankly.
Dean let a moment pass before switching subjects. "Sam, I got a bad feeling about this."
"Well, you'd be nuts to have a good feeling about it."
Dean scowled. "You know what I mean. Detroit. He always said he'd jump your bones in Detroit. Here we are. Maybe
Cas wasn't stupid. Even after all the drugs, all the alcohol, he was nowhere near stupid. He knew Dean meant for him and the others to be nothing more than a distraction. He knew Dean didn't expect any of them, including himself, to live. That's not to say knowing made him feel any better about it, but feeling was something he tried to avoid in general.
He watched as the inexplicable past version of Dean realized the same thing he'd already come to terms with. Future Dean was sending them up the creek without a paddle. He looked around, taking stock of the people with him. In less than an hour's time they'd all be nothing less than em
