Baby In A Trenchcoat
Word Count : 920 words Summary : Dean owns a little coffee shop and Castiel is a tired customer who visits Dean’s shop early in the morning at 6 AM. A/N : This is my first Destiel one-shot so I’m sorry if it’s very cringeworthy
“Mornin’, Sunshine”, Dean said, walking over to the counter when he saw the trenchcoat wearing man enter.
The Family Business was a small coffee shop on 37th Street, run by the Winchester. It was a pleasant coffee shop that was not quite famous, or posh; but the food and coffee at the coffee shop had a taste of warmth and comfort, which was why The Family Business had a number of regular customers.
It was 6 AM, and Dean was the only person in the coffee shop and he was busying himself by arranging the cups into their shelves. The man looked at Dean with weary blue eyes and took out some money from his pocket.
“Coffee with blueberry pie”, he said, shoving the crumpled notes into Dean’s hands. “Didn’t get a good night’s sleep, eh?” Dean asked, surveying the man’s tired hunch and messy ebony hair. The man’s blue tie was backwards, and Dean’s fingers itched to flip it. “What name should I put on it?” Dean asked, but the man walked away as though he had not heard Dean.
The man shuffled over to an empty seat next to the wide window and slumped into it, bumping his head gently against the window. Dean quietly chuckled as he prepared the blue-eyed man’s coffee.
In a matter of seconds, the man slammed his face onto the table and wrapped his hands around his head. Dean frowned slightly and glanced over at the man on hearing the soft thud.
“Hey”, Dean said, sliding a cup of coffee and a slice of pie onto the table. He waited for the man to lift his head, but when he didn’t, Dean poked the man’s arm gently. “Hey.”
The man started snoring lightly, and Dean shook his head, laughing. He decided to let the man sleep; he definitely looked like he could use some sleep. Dean got into the opposite seat.
I think that possibly, maybe I’m falling for you
Dean smiled, listening to the faint music from the radio. Landon Pigg’s soft voice filled the coffee shop, giving Dean the feeling of a certain kind of pleasure.
Yes, there’s a chance that I’ve fallen quite hard over you
Dean tilted his head to look at the unconscious man in front of him. His eyes and nose peeked from the frame that he’d made with his arms.
I see the paths that your eyes wander down
The man’s eyelashes curled beautifully at the ends, and his face looked peaceful as he slept. He looked so innocent that Dean wanted to give him a peck on his cheek.
I wanna come too.
Dean wondered what the man was dreaming of, noticing how the man’s eyes twitched. He looked at the untouched coffee and slice of pie that were undoubtedly cold now, after five or so minutes on this chilly winter morning. He looked at the man again, wanting to know more about him. He hadn’t even told Dean his name.
Dean looked at the coffee and grinned, taking out a pen and scribbling Baby In A Trenchcoat on it. He felt the nickname was apt, considering how childlike the man looked.
As Landon Pigg’s voice crooned through the radio, singing the chorus of the song, the man stirred. He sat up slowly, rubbing his eyes groggily.
Dean had no idea what to do, so he kept staring at the man, fascinated by his bright blue eyes. His hair looked as tousled as ever, and he appeared disoriented. He took a minute to realize where he was, locking his confused gaze with Dean’s admiring gaze. The man broke eye-contact after a few confused moments, realizing that he’d fallen asleep in a coffee shop, and blushed crimson.
Dean noticed the rosy hue that had suddenly appeared on the man’s cheeks and pushed the coffee and pie gently towards the man. The man awkwardly looked up to meet Dean’s gaze and mumbled something.
“Pardon?” Dean asked, leaning forward as he was not quite sure what the man had said.
“Thank you”, the man said, squinting at Dean’s name tag before adding, “Dean?”
Dean nodded. The man gave Dean a little smile and took a sip of his coffee that had turned cold by now.
“Castiel.” “Hmm?” “My name. Castiel”, the man said, stretching forth a hand. “Nice to meet you, Castiel”, Dean said. “Man, that is a weird name”, he thought, and blushed bright red, realizing that he’d said that out loud. “No offense”, he added hastily when Castiel suddenly looked up from his cup directly into Dean’s eyes. His blue eyes were somehow unnerving.
“I know. It’s the name of an angel.”
Dean raised an eyebrow. For some unknown reason, his mind had conjured up an image of Castiel with majestic, feathered wings protruding out of his shoulder blades and a golden harp cradled in his arms. He tried to shake that image out of his mind.
“Can I call you Cas instead?” Dean asked, watching as Castiel raised the drink to his mouth to take another sip.
Cas nodded. His eyes suddenly landed on his coffee cup.
“Baby In A Trenchcoat? ” Cas asked incredulously, noticing the words on the coffee cup for the first time.
“Uh…” Dean racked his brain, trying to come up with some explanation. “Well actually,” Dean started, but eventually gave up, realizing there was no proper explanation that would not embarrass him further. “I’m…sorry?”
Castiel shook his head, before giving Dean a huge grin.
“Don’t be. It fits.”

hi! do u know any mobile writing apps that helps you not getting distracted? something that helps you forget the wc and just write? thanks!
Hello! I’m currently an apple user, so I’m not sure if the following apps are possible to download on Android, but here are some of my favorites that are available for iPhones:
Simple Habit - A meditation app that has 5, 10, and 20 minute meditations to help you focus
Ambient Mixer - A sound mixing app that I use to create the ambience for my current setting. I find that having a track playing in the background puts me in ~the zone~ where I can focus on what I’m writing instead of how much of it is being written.
Forest - Productivity app where whenever you want to focus, you plant a tree. The tree grows while you work, but if you leave the app, it dies. You build a tiny forest by being focused on the task at hand.
I hope that this helps!
x Kate
If you enjoy my blog and wish for it to continue being updated frequently and for me to continue putting my energy toward answering your questions, please consider Buying Me A Coffee.
I’d also really appreciate it if you would check out my separate blog dedicated to my current work in progress.
Alright !
A nice anon asked me the other day about my writing software, and I gave out the name “manuskript” and like, realised that i really wanted to share more about it with you guys ! (I gain no money for that, i just really like that app ?)
SO, Manuskript.
First it’s free. So, yeah, nice ! Then :
Parts to put your general infos and summary, with option to put different sized summary. NICE. Then I guess you’d like to keep tracks of your character ? Well good cause here :
Sorted into main/secondary/minor for your convenience. You can chose colors for them which will be useful later… Mine is pretty empty cause I got all in my brain and forget to put it down here but see that last tab ? Perfect for a character sheet ! Then you’ve got plots, sub-plots, sub-subplots ? Here you go :
I did some censorship there, because I wouldn’t want to spoil you but see ? Organised in importance, general infos, characters part of the plot/subplot, then resolution steps. Also there’s a button on the right side so if you wanna have the book summary on screen you can. SO NICE.
Also I guess you may have some worldbuilding to do ? GOOD cause there’s a part for this too !
Here you can put all your worldbuilding stuff, under categories of your choice !
Now you want to do some plans for your writing ? put down chapters, parts ? guess what’s in the “outline” tab ;)
On your left, you plots and subplots. In the middle, your outline. You can also put a summary, one line or longer, set the POV, and the wordcount goal down there. HOW COOL.
What about ACTUALLY WRITING NOW ?
Here is the Editor with all parts open : outline on the left, data, cheat and search tab on the right, and that thing that let’s you keep track of things you put in References (in the data tab) through chapters, with POVS, down.
Note : You can chose also what appears in the outline bar : here i set it so that i have : - progression percentage after categories, wordcount after chapters - color of chapter icon indicates POV - color of categories and chapters name indicate progression (red = not started or less than half [or two thirds ?] of goal, blue = half of goal or more, green = goal or more, orange = more than a third of goal above it)
Of course you can chose which tabs are open. For example this is my usual set. Outline, data, nothing more
I don’t use much of the “Debug” part, but it’s a great way to keep track of things, and I guess you can do much with it that I don’t know about.
Tl; dr : THIS THING IS GREAT AND FREE SO YAY.
