Summary: Dean’s neighbors are loud, and the walls are thin, but that’s all easy to ignore. Except for the loud sex sounds coming from the neighbor on the other side of his bedroom wall. And even that wouldn’t bother him too much if his neighbor didn’t sound so bored.

Unsolicited by Dangerousnotbroken

We also mentioned two long-lost fanfics that we read over and over:

Point Pleasant by Jen Archer Wood, which was published as an actual novel (!!) and you can buy yourself a copy here.

Summary: Ben Wisehart grew up in the idyllic town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. An early encounter with the supernatural shaped his worldview and served as the catalyst for his career as a bestselling horror writer. 

Thirteen years after abandoning his home, Ben returns to the town to investigate the apparent reemergence of the terrifying creature responsible for his childhood nightmares. 

In Point Pleasant, Ben is confronted not only by the town’s resident monster, the Mothman, but also by his former best friend, Sheriff Nicholas Nolan. 

Together, Ben and Nicholas uncover the mystery of the monster in the woods and discover that the ghosts that haunt us are sometimes made of flesh and blood. 

And sometimes, they lead us home.

Overture by alternaurora, which has been taken down but we continually go back to this story and just had to shout into the void about how good it is. If you know this author and how to get in touch with them let us know! We’d love to be able to tell them how much this story has affected us!

Summary: When home has nothing left to offer, Dean Winchester follows his brother out to the east coast. Sam has a new job in the Big Apple, and Dean has no idea what he wants. He’s never had much of a career, and his relationships have all felt like something’s missing. The brothers adopt a dog and Dean feels a spark for the blue-eyed volunteer Castiel Novak, but he knows he’ll never see him again.

A chance meeting with singer Anna Milton brings Dean to The Roadhouse, a struggling music lounge. Anna’s a flirt, but when it’s Castiel behind her at the piano, Dean can’t let him slip away again- except he’s not available, or so he thinks. Dean begins a rocky relationship with Anna, while Castiel becomes the best friend he’s ever known.

Except they both know it’s more than that. It’s everything. As things fall apart with Anna, everything falls together with Castiel. But when disaster strikes, Dean and Castiel have to fight to hold on to the home and love they’ve found, or else risk losing it forever.
