Castiel Novak is in love. He has been in love with Dean since what feels like forever. Due to a quirk of fate, they are going to be married.

How will Dean reconcile between the man he loves and the man he marries?

How will Castiel react when he finds out that his love is not only unrequited, but UNWANTED?

“WHAT THE FUCK, SAMMY?!!!!” Dean is seething. “How dare he? How could he… and what century do the Novaks think this is? Fucking hell, man!”

Dean is furiously striding through the halls, heading for his room, Sam trailing behind him.

“Dean, listen! Look, you can refuse. Chuck didn’t say it was a condition to getting the deal. He meant….” Sam tries to calm his brother down.

They reach the open doors of den, and Dean detours there instead, heading straight for the bar. If there’s any time that he deserves a drink, it is this.

“I don’t care what he meant, Sam! You know as well as I do that Dad is going to take it that way. And why the hell would he say I would, without even checking with me, Sam! That’s fucked up and you know it!”

Sam quietly closes the door behind him, as he watches Dean pour himself a shot of whiskey and drain it in one go.

“Look Dean, we can still talk to Dad. I’m sure if we just…”

“Yeah right! When has Dad ever listened to me, Sam. I hear enough of how disappointing I am as a son without this…this fucking bullshit!”

Dean slams the glass down and strides to the couch where he slumps down, head in his hands. How? How did everything go to hell in just a couple of hours? Not two hours ago he was excited about finally being able to talk to Dad about him and Benny and now all of a sudden, he was engaged, or near enough to it. What the fuck was Chuck Novak thinking? Who does that? Just outright asked for Dean’s hand in marriage for his son. In the middle of a meeting about the biggest deal Winchester Associates could ever hope for.
