Dean Winchester was a mechanic. He lived in Lawrence, Kansas, a small town, for a small time guy like himself. He stayed in the house that he grew up in, his mother died in child birth while having his younger brother Sam, and their father died only two years ago, in a shooting accident while training young marines.
He worked for Bobby Singer, close family friend, and owner of the only Auto Shop in town. Sammy went to Stanford in California, and he would visit any chance he got, which was almost every weekend, and vacation. If the kid couldn't afford a plane ticket he'd drive. Sam and Dean were almost inseparable when together, the closest as close brother could get. Dean had even given Sam one of his kidneys when they were in high school.
Dean had a routine that he did every morning. Get up, drink coffee, shower, get dressed, eat breakfast, relax for an hour, go to the gym, then head to work. The good thing about being a mechanic, was that you could come to work sweaty and nobody would look at you weird.
Dean was the head mechanic at Singer's Garage, he could rebuild, fix, or build from scratch just about anything. The two other mechanics that worked there were close friends that Dean had known all his life, Garth and Ash. They were good buddy's and had spent most of their time at the Winchester's home as kids for lack of a better family of their own.
Singer's Garage was attached to the town's best known for bar, The Roadhouse, owned by Bobby's girlfriend Ellen Harvelle. Her daughter Jo, the bartender was someone Dean considered a sister and had also grown up around Dean and Sam. Living in this town was like living in a giant house with a giant family.
Dean was getting into work now when his phone started ringing.
"Heya Sammy" he greeted his brother who was supposed to be coming down in a few days, his second year of college was almost finished and he was spending the summer with Dean. Again.
"Hi Dean, hey you know that thing I showed you on your new phone, the video chat?" Sam asked.
"Uhh yeah." Dean said slowly. Sam had forced Dean to get an iphone so they could video chat but they hadn't had the chance to try it.
"Well I'm gonna call you on it right now okay?" Sam said from the other side.
"Wait Samm-" Dean said but was cut off when Sam hung up. "Dammit".
He was supposed to be working, but hey, Bobby always gave him a little leeway when it came to Sam, the old geezer had a soft spot for him.
His phone started ringing, a different ring tone that he found irritating and tasteless and he looked down at the screen. It said to just swipe the arrow across at the bottom. He did so and Sam's face appeared clear as day, and his own face was in a small box at the top right corner of the screen.
"Hey Dean!" Sam said waving.
"Oh wow, uh hey Sammy. This is weird, but cool. I feel like I'm in Star Trek." Dean told his brother and Sam shook his head.
"That's called technology Dean." Sam said sarcastically.
"Hey, watch it or I'll turn this thing off." Dean said but grinned.
"Whatever Jerk." Sam replied.
"Bitch." Dean shot back, and there was a deep throaty chuckle from somewhere else in the room Sam was in, but Dean just ignored it.
"Okay okay. Listen Dean, you know how I'm coming home for the summer in a few days right?" Sam asked.
"Yeah I cleared out your room and stuff." Dean said nodding his head and Bobby walked out of the back storage room and yelled, "Boy what're you doing on that funny box? Fix some damn cars." Dean laughed and nodded toward his boss.
"Well, you might need to clear out the guest room too." Sam said.
"But I thought Jess was going to England for the summer?" Dean said thinking automatically to his younger brothers girlfriend, whom he loved almost as much as the tall gawky boy she was in love with.
"Ugh, Dean she is. Will you let me finish?" Sam asked and Dean nodded rolling his eyes, " You know my best friend, the one I've known since freshmen year but you still haven't met yet?"
"Yessss" Dean said slowly.
"Well, his brother Gabriel isn't going to be in the country so I was wondering if he could you know, tag along?" Sam asked, pulling out his infamous puppy eyes that Dean could never resist no matter how much will power he had.
"Yeah, yeah sure. As long as he doesn't take away from anything we have planned or ruin well, Winchester time ok?" Dean told him.
"He wont I promise! Thanks so much Dean, you're going to love him." Sam said happily.
"Boy! What did I just tell you?!" Bobby shouted at Dean again.
"Hey kiddo, I've got to get to work alright? I'll see you in two days?" Dean asked, excitement already bubbling in his stomach.
"Yeah course Dean. Two days, tell Bobby and the guys I said hi alright? See ya Jerk." Sam replied.
"Yeah yeah, whatever Bitch." Dean said and Sam hung up. As he put his phone in his pocket and headed over to the nearest car he shouted, "Bobby! Garth! Ash! Sam says hi!" and they all mumbled a response.
This summer was going to be great, no matter if Sam was bringing a friend or not. Dean was always open to anyone Sam liked. Bobby had changed his work schedule to only three days a week while Sam was here and he couldn't wait.

Sam locked his phone and turned to his long time roommate at Stanford and best friend, Castiel Novak.
"You're totally set. You're coming home to Kansas man." Sam said grinning at him.
"Oh so I finally get to meet the infamous Dean Winchester?" Cas asked.
"Why does everyone think he's so infamous? Like seriously, where does everyone get that from?" Sam asked.
"Well other then the fact that the one time you brought him here, which happened to be when I was on vacation, he tepeed the dean's ugly car then told three freshmen he was an officer of the law and confiscated their pot for his own use?" Cas said and Sam smirked and Cas continued,
"Or the fact that every girl on your floor and law classes have friended him on FaceBook purely because he's good looking?" Cas said and Sam laughed.
"Or maybe because your friend Ash used you Vine to post a video of Dean working on a Car shirtless, or the other Vine he posted of Dean beating the crap out of a huge biker guy because he bumped into you? I mean how does he know those Jet Lee moves dude?" Cas asked.
Sam wiped tears of laughter from his eyes and said, " Okay I see your point. And we both know those moves because our Dad's a marine and put us through defense training as kids." he explained.
"Oh, don't you have such an interesting family." Cas said smiling at him, "But uh, why did you tell him we'd be there in two days when we'll be getting there tomorrow?" he asked Sam.
"Because I'm gonna surprise him. I've never done this before and he'll be totally psyched." Sam told his friend.

It was the next day, Dean was bent over a car that was taking longer then normal to fix because some dumbass teenager totaled it and then crashed it on the way to the auto shop when it was still sort of drivable.
His undershirt was hanging our of his back pocket, shirtless and covered in black oil, he grumbled about stupid kids and why it had to be so hot. Standing up and reaching for a wrench he went to bend over the car again and was startled when a familiar but loud voice called out "DEAN". he jumped up and rammed his forehead into the hood of the car.
"SONOFABITCH" he growled.
"oh my god Dean, are you okay?" Jo asked rushing over to him.
"What the hell Jo?" Dean asked, "And yes I am ok."
"Sorry I didn't think you'd jump that high, and you're not okay, you've got a big gash on your forehead, here" she took the shirt from his back pocket and pressed it to the wound and he winced. "Hold that there, keep pressure on it while I go get some bandages ok?" and he nodded.
Jo hurried off, and as soon as she was out of sight, Sammy pulled up in a used pick up truck and beeped.
"Sammy!" Dean shouted excitedly, despite his injury.
"Dean! Wait what the hell happened to you?" the taller boy asked while exiting his vehicle.
"Fucking Jo is what happened. Jumped out at me while I was working on an engine, and I whacked my head on the hood. She went to get bandages."
"Okay then,… boy am I happy to see you." Sam said and they hugged a big bear hug, but Dean was careful not to get blood on his brother.
"Not that I'm not totally happy right now, but why are you here early?"
"well, Cas's parents were pretty wealthy and left him and his brothers a good chunk of cash, so he was able to get some first class plane tickets and we made it here early." Sam told him.
"That's awesome, but where is this Cas?" Dean asked.
"Oh he's in the car." Sam said.
"Well tell him to get out here, damn." Dean said exasperated, and Sam waved at Cas to get out of the truck.
Just then Jo made her way towards them with a first aid kit.
"Sam!" she shouted excitedly, momentarily forgot about Dean and leaped into her surrogate brother's arms.
"Hiya Jo, nice to see you too." he said hugging her back, spinning her in a circle and setting her back on her feet.
"Well, damn, did you get tall." she said looking up at him.
"Hehe yeah" Sam said and rubbed the back of his neck self consciously.
"EHEMM" Dean said clearing his throat.
"Oh don't be such a baby." Jo said turning towards him and cleaned his wound and bandaged it, and then Dean noticed that Cas was standing right behind Sam.
"Oh hey, sorry about all this umm, I'm Dean." Dean said handing out his hand to Cas.
"It's not a problem, and I'm Castiel Novak, but everyone just calls me Cas." Cas said and took Deans hand and that's when Dean got a good look at him, and Dayyummm was he nice to look at. He was almost Dean's height with disheveled black hair and bright blue eyes. He had an amazing jaw line that was covered in stubble and he was thin but fit. Wearing a wrinkly white button down shirt that wasn't tucked into his cargo pants and a loose blue tie. The top button was unbutton and he looked like he just had sex. Dean swallowed. Not many people knew he was bisexual. Only his closest friends and Sam. So basically the people that worked at Singer's Garage, and The Roadhouse.
"Cool name, a little weird, but its pretty cool." Dean said smiling at him. And Jo nodded in agreement, also looking Cas up and down, "I'd say." she added, and Cas chuckled and flushed only a little.
"Alright Jo, don't go hitting on Sam's friends before their comfortable, damn." Dean said shoving her.
"Hey I just bandaged you up, some thanks would be nice." Jo shot back.
"thanks?" Dean asked incredulously, "You caused this! If anything I'll be getting revenge." Dean growled back at her.
"Oh okay, good luck with that." Jo snorted.
"Leave us alone, bar wench." Dean hissed back and she flipped him off as she stalked towards the Roadhouse.
Dean turned back towards Sam just as Ash and Garth ran out and tackled the younger Winchester, and they fooled around in the grass.
"Is everyone here like this?" Cas asked moving next to Dean.
"huh? Oh yeah, well at least the people we hang around with. You'll get used to it. So this is your first time in Kansas?" Dean asked trying to keep the conversation going. Cas's voice was addicting.
"Umm yeah" Cas replied as Sam put Ash in a head lock and kicked Garth away. "I've never really been in this area at all. Just California, New York, and out of the country."
"Oh cool, well I've been all over the US, every state actually, our Dad had a thing for road trips, but uh never out of the country. So are you studying to be a lawyer too?" Dean asked.
"No actually, I'm studying to become an English teacher, either that or an anthropologist." Cas admitted.
"Awesome." Dean said and they fell into a comfortable silence and watched as Sam, who was not as out of practice as Ash and Garth thought he might be, and escaped from the smaller men, and held them at bay until finally they hugged it out and walked back over to Dean and Cas while Ash and Garth ran back into the shop before Bobby saw.
"Well that's my family." Sam said smiling at his best friend.
"I think they're wonderful. Much more exciting then mine." Cas said smiling.
"Gabriel is hilarious and definitely exciting." Sam contradicted.
"Yeah I guess, other then him the only other brother I have that's worthy of even talking to is Lucifer, the others are all boring and stuck up. Snoody bastards." Cas said grinning and Sam laughed.
"Lucifer?" Dean questioned as they made their way inside the shop to see Bobby.
"Yeah, my parents were extremely religious and took to naming their kids after all the important angels, well at least until they ran out important ones of course." Cas told him.
"Ahh, so what angel is Castiel?" Dean asked curiously.
"The Angel of Thursday. Not super exciting if I might say so myself." Cas said.
"Oh I beg to differ," Dean said, "Thursdays are awesome around here, right Sammy?"
"Thursdays are pie day down at the diner. Each slice of pie is half price." Sam told his friend and Cas nodded as Dean turned to face them, walking backwards into Bobby's office his arm raised out to his sides, he said "PIE DAY." and Sam and Cas laughed full belly laughs and Dean grinned.
Turning around to see Bobby at his desk he said, "Hey Bobby guess whose here!"
Bobby looked up and smiled, "Sam! Good to see ya boy!" and they hugged. Sam introduced Bobby to Cas and they talked for a few mintues about Sam and Stanford and books and then Bobby looked back at Dean.
"Dean! What did I tell you about working on the cars in the front without a shirt on?" Bobby scolded.
"But Bobby! It's almost 90 degrees out there!" Dean complained.
"Yes, but all those high school girls mingle around the shop when you do that and it not only distracts you, but Garth and Ash and we never get any work done." Bobby said.
"Hey I can't help it that I'm gorgeous Bobby, blame my gene pool." Dean said cockily and flexed his muscles, Cas had a hard time looking away.
"Plus Bobby, Sam'll be helping so we'll get more work done." Dean added.
"Yeah but both you boys attracts more the girls, they don't care if Sam's taken or not, just watch it." Bobby warned.
"Wait what? I'm helping out?" Sam asked.
"Sure are boy. Since Dean's only working three days a week you gotta help when he's here cause we'll need all the help we can get. You know your way around a car almost a well as Dean kid." Bobby said.
"what the hell Dean! I have a friend here, and you signed me up for manual labor?" Sam asked and whipped a pencil from Bobby's desk at his brother.
Dean caught it and laughed, "You'll have to do better than that Sammy boy, plus it'll be good for you!" and he darted out the door way, and Cas laughed.
