I. Canon Dean and Cas go on a date <3
Chick-Flick Moment by insominia [Gen, 6,000 word count] #established relationship
Dean wants to do something nice for Cas, but what do you get an angel of the lord to show your appreciation? Enter: Sam, with the great idea of âhow about you ask him if thereâs anything he wants?â Which is fine until Cas says, âI want a chick-flick moment.â But Dean said heâd do anything and he intends to deliver.

Itâs Valentineâs Day. Not that Dean cares.
keep the lovelight glowing by vaudelin [T, 4,000 word count]Â
âItâs unusual to see a diner so festive,â Cas says once theyâre seated, his gaze swaying around the dimly-lit room. Dean shrugs. âThese kinds of places live and die on the fifties vibe. Itâs practically law they have checkerboard floors.â Though heâs staring at his screen, Dean catches Casâ head tilt in his peripheral. âThat isnâtâthe streamers, Dean. The balloons.â His hand comes up from the table, curving toward the aisle. And that⌠Dean shakes his head, like heâs imagining it. He glares at his phone, swipes to the calendar just to be sure.
Nothing More by hollyblue2 [T, 700 word count]
The words sit in Deanâs messaging app, waiting to be sent. One hand is wrapped around a glass of whiskey and the other hovering over the send button. Happy Valentineâs Day
Tea ânâ Angel by VeraBAdler [Gen, 2,000 word count] #established relationship
Dean takes himself out of his comfort zone for Cas. It turns out to be delicious out there.
II. AU Dean and Cas finally sort out their feelings
Kinda Like a Taylor Swift Song by lemonsorbae [Gen, 1,700 word count] #coworkers
Everything was fine, and then Castiel walked into his life and now somehow Deanâs life ended up kinda like a Taylor Swift song.
Matchmaker by K_K_TiBal [Gen, 4,200 word count] #high school
Every year for Valentineâs Day, Castielâs high school offers a matchmaking fundraiser service that tells each person which student theyâre most compatible with. Heterosexual results only, of course. Enter: Charlie Bradbury with a brilliant idea to switch names on their Matchmaker quiz so that theyâll both get the result they want. Nothing could possibly go wrong.
Silly Love Songs by youaresunlight [T, 3,100 word count] #high school
Every year, for Valentineâs Day, the Lawrence High School Choir sells sing-o-grams for their incredibly popular, annual fundraiser. Sam is a freshman who sings alto in the choir; his brother is a senior with a crush on his best friend. So when February 14th comes around once again, Sam is more than willing to play the messenger.
Unattached Drifter Christmas? by PilDoor [N/R, 2,900 word count] #college, #love hate
Deanâs pretty sick of the know-it-all Asshole Psych Major in his lit class, and no, the fighting over penis envy in old classics isnât Deanâs very mature way of handling a crush. It isnât.
yesterdayâs roses by museaway [M, 4,550 word count] #shop au
It was not how Castiel had envisioned their first real conversation would go, but then heâd never thought heâd trade a thriving legal career in Chicago for a job in his brotherâs flower shop in Kansas, either.
