Summary
It's been two months since Cas was taken by the Empty. Two months since Chuck was defeated. Since Jack left. Since it became just Sam and Dean. Again. Back to basics. Dean should be happy. He thinks he should be happy; the world has been “saved.” The ultimate enemy has been defeated. But he isn’t happy.
Eileen convinces him to do something for his birthday. Nothing big. Just a pie — not cake — and some pizza.
“Can we dig into the pie now?” Dean sticks out his bottom lip, playing it up. This may be the most he’s talked in months, but the dinner has been fun, teaming up with Eileen to tease Sam always lightens the mood.
"Hello!"
All three adults in the room startle at the greeting and turn to find Jack standing at the top of the kitchen stairs, his hand raised, a small smile on his face. “I brought someone with me.” He moves out of the doorway and Dean hears the familiar sounds of shoes on concrete before he sees Cas step around the corner.
AKA: Two months after Castiel is taken by the Empty, Eileen and Sam pull Dean enough out of his depressed state to celebrate his birthday. Dean’s birthday present ends up being the return of Jack and Cas.

Summary
How do you write someone a last note? One that will be fitting for a death bed? One that expresses all your thoughts and feelings for them? But doesn’t seem too schmaltzy or ham-fisted?
Do you try to make them laugh? Remind them of the fun times when you lost your breath, clutched your side, fell to your knees from laughing so hard? But then will reading those stories make them laugh now, that once innocent breathlessness reminding both of you of how sick they really are?
Stede reaches out his shaking hand and places it on top of Ed's, rubbing the ring found there with his thumb. Ed’s breathing comes in ragged shakes, but he snorts at the touch and slowly blinks to look up at Stede. The corner of his eyes crinkle, so much warmth still in them.

Stede was all limbs.
One leg was so far off the bed his big toe was lightly grazing the floor, he'll be lucky if he didn't get a splinter.

Summary
Ever since Castiel has been back home after three months away, Dean has ramped up Friday Night Movie Nights. Spending some one-on-one time with his best friend (and secret love of his life) is great, but everything changes one night when Dean dozes off, cuddles up to Cas on the couch, and confesses his feelings for him in his sleep.
Equal parts stunned and elated to learn that his own feelings aren’t unrequited, Cas decides to show Dean that it’s mutual. So, he sets about planning the perfect evening for Dean’s birthday, including his favorite burger place, a romantic walk through the snowy park, all ending with a movie night and hopeful love declaration.

Summary
Stede and Ed move across the floor, feet tapping and hair twirling, Ed dips Stede three times in a row, each one getting lower and lower that they both practically end up on the tile.
The dark clouds threatening rain all afternoon finally deliver on their promise, interrupting Stede's attempt at an elaborate realistic chicken dance and Ed holding a candle solemnly in front of his chest as Pokey LaFarge's "Sister Andre" plays.

Summary
… In which Castiel confesses but he can’t bear the look of disbelief on Dean’s face (and dreads his answer too much) so he makes Dean forget.
Over and over again.

Summary
“Nah, man,” Lucas shakes his head, leaning back as he snacks on an apple, “he got, like, buff. Do you see his arms?”
Mike does, in fact, see Will’s arms. He has not stopped seeing his arms.
“She definitely sees his arms,” Dustin very unhelpfully points out, waggling his eyebrows, and Mike gets the overwhelming urge to bash his own head in.While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.

Summary
“Hey Will?” Mike breaks the silence a moment later. He keeps drifting to the right, although their hands still keep them tethered together. Will pulls him back every time.
“Hey Mike?” Will parrots back.
“He… he’s not your… boyfriend, right?” The questions out before he can stop it, and it sounds far judgier than Mike intends.
He thinks it’s the wrong thing to say, because for a long moment, Will is quiet. Then he says, “No, Mike. Chance is… definitely not my boyfriend.”
Mike lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding. “Good.”

Summary
In his almost 17 years being alive, Will has learned many things. Very high on that list is that there’s a fine line between “best friend” and “something more.”
Michael Wheeler uses that line like a fucking jump rope.
“You… wish I had saved just you?”

Summary
The first time it happens, Will classifies it as a little accident.
When he wakes, the morning sun is burning through the window onto their faces, and Mike’s cursing as he stands to close the curtains, stumbling all the way.
“Scoot over,” he grumbles, voice dry, and for a second Will can’t do anything other than sigh like a lovesick idiot. It’s a second too late for Mike, because he grumbles more words Will doesn’t catch under his breath and then physically pushes Will towards the wall to lay beside him, arm over Will’s middle. A second of silence passes, then Mike sighs, only to whine: “Fuck, my head hurts.”
Will can’t help it: he breaks down laughing, much to Mike’s offense.
---------------
Alternatively: five times Mike kissed Will, and one time Will kissed back.
