    Summary

    Dean doesn't have the guts to grab Sam from Stanford. Dean fails to find his missing dad. Dean can, however, hunt the ghost haunting his house.

    Yeah, Dean buys a haunted house. On purpose. After a quick salt and burn of the bitter old ghost of Naomi Novak, Dean can finally have something in his life go right.

    But the ghost isn't what Dean's expecting. The spirit he finds is a polite, broad shouldered, blue eyed man in a trench coat who, instead of throwing Dean through the window in a vengeful rage, asks Dean for help.

    Dean agrees to assist Castiel, the Friendly Ghost, with moving on to the next life. Cas isn't like any ghost Dean had ever met. The usual rules don't apply to him. He's kind to Dean. He loves books. His cold touch brings mortals close to death.

    The more time Dean spends with Cas, the less Dean wants to let him go. Cas is good company. Dean hasn't let himself get close to anyone in years. In a different life, Dean could have fallen in love with him.

    Or maybe he already has.

    Summary

    First, before anything, there was want.

    In one version of this story, Dean Winchester hasn't stopped moving since the day his father died. He hunts across the country but always comes back to California with the half-hearted hope of visiting Sam at Stanford, and an endless, restless, ceaseless pull to the desert.

    In one version of this story, Dean Winchester finds himself in the scorched heat of a Death Valley summer, on a hunt for a ghost. Or a purpose. Or an answer to the question that’s been tugging at his tendons for as long as he’s lived.

    In one version of this story, all Dean Winchester has ever done is want, and all Castiel has ever done is wait.

    Summary

    “Does this story have a point?” Eddie questioned, Lena narrowing her eyes at him.

    “This guy, my sort of friend—what if he could watch Chris for you?”

    Eddie furrowed his brows together. “You want me to leave my kid who’s halfway across the country with some—stranger?

    “It beats having him sent home to your parents, right?”

    Well, she had a point there.

    Eddie shook his head, overwhelmed with his thoughts.

    “Look, I appreciate it Bosko, but I just—I don’t know. This is my kid we’re talking about.”

    “I know that, and I know how much you love him. Hell, you’ve sent me ten plus emails when I was watching him for you.”

    Eddie looked to where there was a line coming out of their commanders office. He turned to Lena, giving his full attention.

    “Alright, tell me about this friend of yours.”

    —or—

    The one where Eddie’s in the army, Shannon gives up her rights to Chris, and Eddie needs a babysitter. Good thing Lena knows Buck, the guy having nothing better to do than help babysit until Eddie gets back. Eddie would come home, and he would leave; it wasn’t like they were going to build some lifetime friendship or anything.

    Summary

    “Earth to Eddie,” Steve says, voice light. “Do you copy?”

    “Huh?” Eddie blinks, brilliantly articulate. Steve snorts.

    “You looked pretty far gone. You good?”

    “Yeah—yeah, I’m good.”

    The smile Steve gives him is fond, golden, warm enough to melt steel. “Good. ‘Cause don’t think I forgot our deal, Munson. Come on, let’s get you in the pool.”

    Eddie gasps, hand to his chest in mock scandal. “Steven. Is this a ploy to get me wet and naked?”

    Steve’s already halfway to the house, but he tosses a wink over his shoulder, all smooth confidence. “Believe me, I wouldn’t need a ploy for that.”

    Eddie swallows hard—loud enough he’s pretty sure Steve hears it—and for a second he seriously considers bolting in the opposite direction. But his legs move him forward anyway, like they know something his brain hasn’t caught up to yet.

    Thin swim trunks suddenly feel like a terrible idea.
