A/N : Hello there! This is my first Supernatural fanfiction. If we're going to be honest here, I have literally no idea what I'm doing, this piece just happened to be my dream and I filled in some gaps.
Since this is AU, nothing supernatural happened in everyone's lives apart from whatever's in the fic. So go with it, ok?

Chapter 1
Two boys of about the same age were playing in the backyard. The one with blonde hair and green eyes was nine-years-old, the other one was pale with electric blue eyes and messy black hair that stood in every direction, was his best friend. They were so busy playing that they didn't notice their clothes were somewhat rumpled and dirty due to playing in rain for few hours. It was only slight drizzle now, but boys were unaware of it and engrossed in their game.
The green-eyed boy known as Dean, was currently ticking the other mercilessly.
"A-ahahaha...De-Dean...sto-stop it..." other one giggled out breathlessly, trying to pry Dean's hands off of him.
"No, can do Cas" said Dean without stopping, "No, can do".
Cas, better yet known as Castiel, was also nine years old and attended the same school as Dean. They were currently enjoying their summer break in Dean's backyard. Dean's mother had called the boys inside sometime ago but they chose to ignore it.
"Dean! Nahahahahaha…!" Cas pleaded, "Pl-please...stop!" His plea finally landed on Dean's ears and Dean stopped, still laughing. He stood up and offered his hand to Castiel, who gratefully took it.
They went inside to clean up and found Dean's mother, Mary, glaring at them lightly. Both of their faces turned sheepish and Dean spoke up first, "Hey mom!"
"So you guys made it home, huh," she chuckled taking in their appearances and added, "Go, get cleaned up".
Dean dragged Castiel with him while throwing "sure, mom!" over his shoulder. Both boys went to Dean's room and took turns in the shower, before quickly changing their clothes. Castiel had some of his clothes at Dean's considering he spent so much time, and many nights there. Apart from that, he lived just across the street from Dean's house, so it made it easy to move from one place to the next.
When they were finished, they ran down the stairs, just in time for Mary to call them into the kitchen for snacks. The sight that greeted them left Dean's mouthwatering and Castiel amused.
"PIE!" exclaimed Dean, immediately starting to pile up his plate. Castiel soon joined him because, God knows, the pies Mary makes were delicious.
When their stomachs couldn't stuff anymore pie, Castiel turned to leave for his house with Dean tailing behind. It was sort of their custom that whenever Castiel came over, Dean would drop him off at his house even though he lived just across the street.
The boys left the house and were just about to cross the street when they heard a mewl. Castiel, ever the cat-loving boy, looked for the sound and found a kitten stuck in one of the trees in Dean's yard.
They carefully brought it down and the cat was sitting in Castiel's arms, purring contently while he rubbed its ears.
"Hey Cas?" asked Dean, "you gonna keep it or what?"
"Yes, Dean" Castiel answered, "and tomorrow I'll take him to a doctor" when he noticed one of its legs hanging limp. Dean shrugged and they both turned to walk towards Castiel's house once again. They said their goodbyes and Dean turned to walk back to his home.
He was singing a tune to himself when he noticed a car heading his way. It was swerving and the driver had a panicked look on his face. The driver honked many times but Dean was frozen on the spot and couldn't take his eyes away from the speeding car. Just as the car was about to hit him, he felt a push him from behind and something hit his leg hard. Dean flew forward and landed on the pavement, hitting his head. He raised his head to look up and the last thing he blurrily saw was someone in the middle of the road and that the car had hit the nearby lamppost. Then, everything went black.
Later he woke up in a hospital and found Castiel sitting on the couch beside his bed.
"Hey" he whispered in hoarse voice.
"Hello, Dean" Castiel said, bringing him a cup of water to drink."How are you feeling?"He asked. Dean smiled seeing Cas there. Those two were inseparable; after all they were best friends.
Dean opened his mouth to reply, but the door to his roomsburst unexpectedly open, and his mother ran in and hugged him. She whispered, 'its ok, baby' over and over again into his ear as she rocked him back and forth. She asked him how he was feeling, while checking him over.
Even though his head was bandaged and one leg was in plaster, he felt okay, kind of sore, but okay. The medication he was on was keeping him from feeling any pain. He saw his mother looking at him worriedly and he answered, "I'm fine, mom". And when it seemed like she wasn't going to listen to him, he turned to other occupant in the room and said, "C'mon Cas! Tell mom I'm fine!"
And at that moment Mary's world stopped.
So... how was the start? I know this is short but next chapter will be longer than this one.
It's a two shot and I'll post next chapter in two or three days. It's already complete so everyone, be sweethearts and leave a review with questions, comments, concerns or whatever ^_^
Special thanx to my beta, nimthriel. I couldn't have completed this fic without her help. Thank you so much! :D
