Summary:  Life was good for Jimmy and Cas Novak. They had successful careers, good friends, and a relationship that, while unconventional and hidden from public view, was almost entirely perfect. And they thought the same was true for their best friend, Dean. A late night phone call makes it startlingly clear that was not the case. After nearly losing Dean to suicide, all three began to reevaluate exactly what they wanted in life – and who they want that life with.

Excerpt:

Jimmy groaned when Castiel’s phone rang, a tinny version of Ramble On alerting them that it was Dean calling. “Leave it.”

“It’s Dean,” Cas said shortly, as if it were self-explanatory. He stretched to reach his phone from where they lay, while continuing to touch as much of Jimmy as possible.

“Yeah, well, he didn’t want to hang out earlier. Ain’t gonna happen in the middle of the night.”

Jimmy knew he sounded petulant, but he couldn’t help it. Dean Winchester was the Novak twins’ best friend. For the past several years, they’d done everything together.

Well, maybe not everything, he thought as he tilted his face out from the pillow to watch his brother’s muscled torso flex in the dim light. Not that Jimmy would mind opening their friendship up to more. He was pretty sure that Castiel would be into it too; their emotional connection with Dean (both separately and as a unit) was deeper than anything they had shared with anyone except each other.

Castiel managed to grab the phone. Jimmy, still buoyed on a wave of endorphins, tangled his hands with Castiel’s to make it more difficult to answer.

Castiel batted his hand away, laughing in spite of himself. He brushed a quick kiss across JImmy’s lips before answering.

“Hello, Dean.”

Jimmy made another grab for the phone, and Castiel pushed himself up to sitting to get the phone out of Jimmy’s reach. “Dean?” he repeated. Jimmy settled for lazily running his fingers along his brother’s spine.

“Dean? Are you there?” Castiel’s brow furrowed in consternation.

Jimmy looked up questioningly, and Castiel shrugged. “Butt dial?” Jimmy suggested, rolling over to rest his head on Castiel’s thigh. Cassie should just hang up, he thought, and let them get back to the afterglow.

Castiel put the phone on speaker and held it between them. They could hear soft sounds of movement, some uneven breaths. Jimmy glared at the phone. “He’d better not have ditched us for a booty call, and then butt-dialed us during it!”

Castiel frowned at him. Jimmy tended to be a little possessive of Dean, preferring not to be reminded of their friend’s conquests. It made him more than a little brusque.

“Should I hang up?”

“Well, I definitely don’t want to hear it!” Jimmy scoffed.

Castiel moved his thumb over the disconnect button just as Dean’s slurred voice came through the speaker.

“Cas?”

“I’m here, Dean.”

More breathing and the dragging sound of the phone being shifted. Jimmy sat up, exchanging worried looks with Castiel. Something was wrong. He had heard Dean drunk, high, even beaten up that one time, but this was different.

“Dean, please talk to me.”

Dean’s voice was quiet and shaky. “I think I … I was wrong, Cas. m'sorry.”

“What do you mean? What’s going on?”

“Sorry, Cas … you gotta tell Jimmy, Sam, ‘kay? Tell 'em, sorry.”

“Dean, whatever it is, we can help fix it. Where are you?”

“Cassie?” Jimmy whispered when there was no reply.
