Kansas Boys

Four young men join together to form an alliance of trust, family and downright talent to overcome the odds and hardships to successfully make it in careers of the musical variety, together as a group. Castiel Novak, with the voice of an angel, the lead singer; Dean Winchester, with the brains and brawn to push their success forward and the talents to rock a guitar like no one's business; Sam Winchester, unstoppable with a bass guitar and forward with keeping everyone together; and Johnny Smith, quiet and shy, but a musical genius, lyricist, pianist and music writer. Together, they become unstoppable… or so they thought. An AU depicting Castiel and (10th)Doctor (Doctor Who) as humans, musicians alongside Sam and Dean Winchester. First few chapters may be slow. Possible Destiel Later. I also expect this to be during a different time period as well, wanting the authentic feel of this taking place around the time the Four Seasons had existed.

Inner monolog in this Chapter by Dean

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own the rights to these characters. They are respectably owned by their true creators and owners. Plot is slightly derived from the musical Jersey Boys. I do not intend to strictly keep it that way though. Jersey Boys respectably owned by creator. I do not own any of it. Jersey Boys was originally created to honor the real Frankie Valli and the original Four Seasons. I respect this and I am not using their real names or sticking 100% to the plot. For the first couple chapters it will follow it somewhat closely, and I changed it to my liking for this original piece of work. Supernatural characters are respectably owned and belong to Eric Krypke. Doctor (Doctor Who) is also not owned by me.

Chapter 1, Of Humble Beginnings

.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

So you want to know the whole story? You came to the right place then, because I'm definitely the guy you should go to. Without me, all four of us would probably be nothing. One hit wonders if we were lucky. Because it takes just that. It takes that luck, talent, skills, and vision. And believe me when I say I got plenty of that.

Cas was a cool guy, if you could give him that; worked at the barber place down the street before I taught him better. He was just a young guy at the time, not even legal yet and struggling to make it anywhere. He was shy, terribly shy. It was almost painful to watch just how shy the guy could be sometimes.

"Why don't you ever let the kid do a shave? Hey Cassie, come over here" A booming voice calls from a chair in the barbershop. The voice belonged to a Mister Robert Singer. He was currently being groomed by the owner of the barbershop. He knew the kid was working here for a while now, but never got to see him do much else.

Bobby was the guy you would go to for anything. You could trust him. And he was damn honest to the point he could let you feel like he actually gave a shit. However, that was the only un-honest part of that. He mostly just made me pick up his dry cleaning. Made me cart him around like some hot shot. But he was respectable. And these days, that's hard to come by. I'd do anything for that man.

Castiel stops what he was doing, which was brushing up some of the hair that had collected on the floor of the barbershop. It was a slow day for him. Every day was a slow day when you would rather be anywhere else but there. "Yes, Mr. Singer?"

"Could you do a shave?"

"I s'pose I could, sir."

"Good man." Bobby says before pausing "I'm actually pretty fond of this beard. Just catch the edges a bit."

With that, the barber who had previously been working takes a step back and allows Castiel to pick up a razor and examine it for a second. The barber looks at Bobby to see if he had really made the right decision with this.

"Relax, the kid isn't going to cut open my throat." Bobby eases with an annoyance that commonly adorned his voice.

Little did he know, that was the moment Dean stepped into the shop. Surprising the inexperienced, aspiring barber who was just about to start his work on Bobby, the shave got away from him and nicked the flesh of the beard. It was just a small slice. The barber who owned the shop grumbled as he took the knife from Cas and went to get a rag to give to Bobby, who had then applied it to his small cut.

"I-I am so very sorry, Mr. Singer, I do apologize-"

"Easy kid, what's a little blood between friends?" Bobby says with a shrug before looking to Dean who had just walked in "Warn us a second time, will ya?"

"Sorry, won't happen again, sir."

"Don't worry about it."

Again, Bobby was the guy you would go to. That guy and me, we had a special friendship.

"Did you pick up my dry cleaning?"

Dean looks back from the driver's seat to get a glance at Bobby sitting beside Cas in the back. He seemed uninterested but Dean knew his ass would be chewed out if he hadn't humored the man's request. "Yeah. It's already at your home."

"Good man. Keep that up. Run Cassie home then drop me home."

Dean nodded in agreement as he drives.

"Have you been doing your exercises?" Bobby asks Cas sitting beside him, voice gruff as always.

"Yes," Cas replies, shrinking in on himself.

"Good. Your voice is a gift from God, himself. The whole world will hear it, Cassie." Bobby praises the boy as he turns to give him an assuring smile.

Cas nods quietly before agreeing "Yes. It's just… I wish it soon happened."

"You're impatient? Don't worry, talents like those are bound to get you there, Right Dean?"

Dean smiles and glances back in the mirror at Cas "You will be bigger than Sinatra!" He proclaims. And with that, he pulls over to the side of the road in front of Castiel's house.

There were only three ways to get away from this neighborhood. You joined the Army, and probably got yourself killed. You became a delinquent, and probably got yourself killed. Or you became famous.

We chose the best two out of three.

A/N: Thank you so much for reading! I don't want to start off like the normal person asking for reviews or ratings. I will however ask for feedback if you feel strongly towards giving that. This is my first fanfic and I intend to keep it going. The more I am urged to do it, the more I will! So let me know! I am also open for any suggestions, ideas and the like. I appreciate ALL Feedback! also just as a note, I do intend for Cas' voice to be a bit higher than canon purposes.
