    Summary

    Dean Winchester never expected much from life. His mother abandoned her sons to be raised by their drunk, abusive father. Dean dropped out of school to take care of the family, but they were barely getting by, so when a handsome stranger came along, offering him a way out... Well, even if things weren’t perfect, he wasn’t going to risk losing a good thing.

    So what if Lee was a mean drunk — it wasn’t anything Dean hadn’t seen from his father his whole life. So what if sometimes he was a bit too rough — Dean’s tough, he can take it. And so what, if sometimes things got a bit out of hand when Lee’s friends came around — Lee doesn’t seem to mind. In fact, sometimes he asks Dean to ‘take care of them’. (It was fine. It was all fine.)

    Enter grad student Castiel, who is instantly intrigued by the kind, quiet mechanic with the sad eyes. The more he gets to know Dean, the more he learns about his heartbreaking past and even more heartbreaking present, the more he feels like he’s fallen into something he can’t walk away from.

    Dean doesn’t believe he deserves to be saved, because he never thought to ask. Can Castiel be the one to pull him out of hell?

    Title inspired by: Fast Car by Tracy Chapman

    Summary

    The Winchesters are hunters who subsist on the animals around their forest home. For as long as Dean can remember, they’ve been favored by Castiel, the God of the Hunt. They aren’t wealthy, but they’ve never gone hungry, and there’s even enough money for John to send Sam to school.

    Lately, though, that’s been changing. They’re bringing in less and less game, and John says it’s because Castiel is displeased with them. His hunch is seemingly confirmed when Sam is abducted one day.

    When Dean journeys to the Virgin Grove to plead for his brother’s life, however, Castiel informs him that Sam has in fact been taken by Lucifer, the God of the Dead, as part of an ancient settlement that maintains peace among the pantheon. A desperate Dean pledges his soul to Castiel if the Wild God helps him rescue Sam from his fate. Castiel accepts, and the two set out on an adventure that will change them both.
