Candy Apples

SPN Rare Ship CC: Round 14 | lunarxylop vs. @meg-wayward-af

Prompt: Hallowsgiving — cranberry sauce and/or candy apples

Ship: Becky/Sam (Rosechester)

Word Count: 1086

Summary: Becky cooks a lot when she’s nervous, and she has a tendency to get nervous a lot, especially when she’s meeting her boyfriend best friend and family.  

Becky was walking on Main Street on her way to her job at the library when she saw someone she thought look like Sam Winchester.  It wasn't the first time. When she was feeling lonely or after particularly bad dates,  she would think about him, Sam Winchester,  in the same way, she used to when she was just a girl carrying a massive crush on her neighbor, the kind and smart boy and his sweet smile. She had been thinking about him so much lately that it didn't surprise her when she started to notice people sharing a resemblance with him on a crowded place.  

But by the following week,  everyone was talking about it, when she was working at the library when she was buying her morning coffee,  even when she was at the grocery store for her weekly trip. Her hometown was seething with excitement, golden boy Sam Winchester was back and Becky still feeling like the clumsy and awkward girl she was when it came to Sam Winchester did her best to avoid him.  It worked for two weeks before she ran out of luck, which was a miracle in itself and a lot of hard work considering how small her hometown was. She was on her weekly trip to the grocery store when she heard Dean Winchester loud and deep voice, he was talking to his brother. While trying to avoid the Winchester's Becky found herself in front of Dean panicking to grab the first thing that came to her hand before trying to leave, but Dean had already recognized her.

"Hey Becky"

"Dean, Hi! "

"How are you?"  

"Fine! Fine! " Becky answered still putting boxes of chocolate chip cookie baking mix in her shopping cart.

"Do you mind,"  Dean asked pointing the baking mix Becky had in her hand. "Cas sends me to buy one.”

Becky gave the box she had in her hand, looking at Dean's hands, afraid to cross his stare.

"Bye Becky!" Dean said while leaving.

Becky angry at herself looked at her shopping cart and wondered what the hell she was doing with a dozen of cookies baking mix. She was going to put them back on the shelf when she realized how good of an idea it was for the kid reading programme after all. Now she just needed to buy a ton of eggs and butter, she would be cooking all night, but it was a nice distraction for Sam Winchester. She paid for all her food, glad to have succeeded in avoiding Sam Winchester once more, congratulating herself when she literally ran into him. Sam, as kind as he always had been, apologized for the whole incident, with a smile on his face when he recognized his old neighbor. He even invited her for a cup of coffee, the next day at the town coffee shop for old time sake.  Becky dazzled by him as she always been could say anything but yes to Sam Winchester.

After cooking all night that day she realized that cooking was very soothing for her nerves. And that how the cooking spree started. Now every time she was overly nervous, Becky cooked to calm herself down. Now four months later, Sam and Becky were officially in a serious relationship, and Becky was known as the town new baking lady.

When Becky wake up that morning, she was a bundle of nerves because tonight was a bit of an unusual pizza and movie night. Sam was introducing her as his girlfriends to his brother Dean and his husband Castiel, but also to his best friend, Gabriel. Having Dean and Castiel as guests tonight, wasn’t what she was worried about even if Dean was a gruff man who liked nobody but his brother and his husband, Castiel was sweet enough for the both of them and already considered Becky as a friend.

Becky was anxious about meeting Gabriel Novak. Gabriel Novak, whose opinion Sam value more than anyone else but his older brother. Gabriel Novak, who was his ex-boyfriend as they mess around and had sex before even if Sam never considered him as such. Gabriel Novak who was a world-renowned baker; a little fact that she wished she knew before offering to baker dessert in his stead. But Sam never called him anything else than Gabe. Castiel was the one who told her and after a long conversation on the phone,  and now she knew he was obsessed with candies and sugary goods.

Yet she still had no idea of what she was going to bake for dinner, she asked Sam for advice, and Sam half laughing answered her that if she baked apple candies, Gabriel would probably love her for the rest of his life.

So Becky went to the grocery store, bought two pounds of apples, several pounds of sugar and way too much vinegar, food coloring and sprinkles. She went back home and spent her whole afternoon baking, burning her fingers making homemade syrup, and having fun with the food coloring and the sprinkles, like a little girl, totally forgetting what she was anxious about in the first place.  

"Babe!”

It was Sam voice who woked her up from her cooking gaze.

“I'm in the kitchen. Baking” Becky answered loudly for him to hear

“Your door was open.”

“That because I knew you were coming.” She replied rolling her eyes, her back to Sam, getting a batch of apples out of her fridge. She always let her door open when she knew he was coming, and despite the fact that it seemed to annoy him every time, she had no intention to stop doing it.

“What's all that?” Sam asked looking at her kitchen island.

“Candy apples. you said I should bake some, that Gabe like them …”

“Yeah, a couple, maybe 5 or 6. Not ... How many have you made?”

“I stopped counting after I reach 20.”

“You stopped counting after …”

“It was so much fun. I was nervous, and I think I kinda went a bit overboard.”

“Well, Gabe is gonna love you for sure now,”

“You really think so because I still have some …”

“Becky stop, he was gonna love you anyway, because you're amazing. You're a little clumsy and have an obsessive behavior toward certain things, but you're important to me.” Sam said before taking his face delicately between his hands and kissing her. “Now we better hide some before he got here because he will make himself sick trying to eat them all.”

Second try, I hope I can explain myself better this time. Can you write something about Castiel stress baking way to much Christmas cookies for the second year in a row and Dean being anxious because he doesn't know how to tell his boyfriend that his baking is kind of disgusting

The smell of cinnamon hits Dean like a brick wall as soon ashe enters the apartment. He swallows down his greeting, as well as the slightinstinctive nausea, and wonders if he can get away with just turning on his heeland walk right out again.

“Dean?” Cas calls from the kitchen, ruining whatever fainthope Dean had. “Could you give me a hand?”

Dean allows himself one deep, regretful sigh beforeshrugging off his jacket and joining Cas in the kitchen. The cinnamon scent is absolutelycloying in there and Dean can see why – the counters are littered with traysand trays of freshly baked cinnamon cookies, all of them somehow burnt at theedges and gooey in the middle.

Because for some godforsaken reason, that’s how Cas prefersthem.

“Your mom called again?” Dean guesses.

“What?” Cas puts down yet another tray and when he looks upand turns Dean’s way, Dean can see a smidge of flour on his forehead. “Whywould you think that?”

Dean glances around the kitchen. “I dunno, just guessing.”

When it comes to his family, Cas has two coping mechanisms:repress the hell out of it and stress-bake.

Too bad he’s a terrible baker.

“As a matter of fact, it was my father who called,” Cas says,dusting his hands on his apron. “He invited us to spend Christmas with them.”

“You said no, right?”

Cas gives him a withering glare. “No, Dean, because obviouslyI love spending time with my family and would gladly spend what few vacationdays I have getting picked apart for every decision I’ve made in my life, up toand including the man I married.”

“Shut up, your parents love me.”

Dean picks up one cookie, turning it around in his hands.Some day he’s gonna have to nut up and tell Cas that his baking is awful but healready knows it’s not gonna be today. Cas is already in an awful mood, he’snot gonna make it worse.

He bites into it, giving Cas a convincingly fake smile as hechews slowly. Cas gives him an honest smile back, and for a moment Dean can’teven taste the awful half-baked mess in his mouth.

Honestly, the things he does for love.

What about Dean and Donna eating ice cream together because online dating is a nightmare. Maybe ship it at the end 😊

"Another failure?" Donna licks the corner of her waffle cone, the strawberry flavor filling her taste buds. Dean drops into the seat across from her and she hands him a chocolate and vanilla swirled cone. "Online dating sucks." He takes it and instead of savoring it, he takes a bite. "I could have told you that. That's why it never stuck with me. What was she like?" Dean shrugs. "Cute, reminded me of Cassie. My ex. I liked her up until her boyfriend showed up." "Ouch." Donna grins. "Ouch indeed. I had to lie my way out of it. The guy was huge and I didn't feel like fighting tonight." Donna stares him down. An idea pops into her mind. "How about we try it?" Dean's eyes meet hers. "What?" "Dating it, I mean. It seems like we can't find anyone so how about we try it out?" Dean smiles. "you know what, I'll like that." Donna takes a bite of her cone and smiles.

A huge thank you and 2017- the year of tumblr!

As the year ends I can't believe that I started off just as an cockles shipper who didn't ship Destiel, I know the blasphemy, but then this year has been super Destiel heavy. I have found great people to be friends with, just chatted with random strangers, wrote 19 fics on Ao3, wrote some prompts on tumblr, had a mutual as a person whose writing I adore,I just don't know.

So I huge thank you to- @warlocks-and-angels @paradoxical-head @bend-me-shape-me (dude you are amazing, I love what you write and I don't even know how we are Mutuals but I am happy I got to know you in 2017, @that anonymous person who sent me those prompts

@lunarxylop @top-cas-bottom-dean @fanforfanatic (I low-key love you! Just accept it) @castiel-left-his-mark-on-me (I might not be her friend or a very known mutual but I am got honestly a big fan of her, she is amazing)

And everyone who has left a kudos, liked or reblogged or commented on my fic or just saw this blog and followed, I am humbled and I can truly say- this has been a year of tumblr for me.

PS this year was also the year of When Harry Met Sally, I don't know if @mnwood will see this but I have not read any other cockles (from the starting- how it began fic) and I can't thank you enough for writing it, a huge thank you to give it a little nudge for Caniformes and Englandwouldfall is an amazing author, check all her fics and this one fic that frustrated me- to build a home by intothesilentland, I just can't tell you how much these few fics have meant to me. I hope you people keep writing in any shape or form. I will continue reading it!

Any last words?

Tagged by the lovely @saltnhalo

RULE: Post the last sentence you wrote (fanfic/original/whatever) and tag as many people as there are words in it.

I’ve actually be writing tonight so I can do this...

What if Cas wants to be with Jimmy more than he wants to be with Dean?  Surprisingly this does not come from a dcj fic... it’s from a challenge instead!  I won’t tag 16 people... but I’ll tag a few and if I anyone else wants to join then pretend I tagged you too! Obviously you don’t have to take part if you don’t want to.  @lunarxylop @felixmarouchka @jhoomwrites @thedogsled @60r3d0m @snarkysnartes @dreamcas

The search of a heart to find a home

This is still new for them, to wait for 30 odd years to now, when they have their soul mates. Dean often catches wishful glances from Cas and sometimes he wonders how is any of this real.

Their first date has been a disaster and they are still trying to find some footing in each other's life. Although Dean was right, Cas is a librarian, the new librarian of their school.

It is strange to go from never meeting your soulmate to see them very day. "Dean, you are staring again," Cas chuckles.

The staring has gotten better or at least he think it has. But whatever, it maybe, he loves that Cas is here. That weird naked dude is almost chill for him.

They have to find their hearts to find the place which they will call home. It is strange that Dean had never felt home in his life, he knows the feeling for all intends and purpose he did have a home. But it had stopped felling like one at 18. It is when most of people found homes and their soulmates. Maybe home is more than just a  place.

Cas is already in the passenger seat and Dean too shakes himself out of this line of thought and drives them. The hearts will call to them, most people tell them that. They have to hold each other or touch some way and the call will come by itself.

“Dean,” Cas murmures, holding on to Dean’s shoulder, the skin beneath his hand throbs. It feels Cas’s hand is getting tattooed on to his skin. The imprint of their bond.

“Cas,” He acknowledges what is happening. Sam had commented that Dean and Cas could communicate without speaking. Even though they had known each other for a very little while. World is simultaneously really cruel and extraordinarily sweet to have given Cas and Dean finally a chance.

The heart beats increase when the proximity to their true home increases, most people get places where they already live or their soulmates live. He wonders if it would be the case with them. In the distance they can see a oak tree. 

“I think we are here, Dean,” He loves when Cas says his name in his gravely voice. It makes him feel special. A bit more than normal. As if his name has new meaning all of sudden.

There is an oak tree and a forest accompanying that. “I think our hearts have steered us wrong,” Dean grumbles, he knew he will have some bad luck in the situation.

“I don’t think so, let’s get out of the car,” Cas says and leaves. Not waiting to see if Dean follows. Maybe he will follow. He knows that most likely he will.

Cas is look at the trunk fascinated, and Dean sees it too. A marking made with knife, he remembers. 

There are only two words- Home- Dean. He remembers the time when he was 12 and had wandered here from the community park and felt at ease, looking at this tree. 

“Maybe we are thinking this wrong, Dean. Maybe our home is where we are,” Cas hugs him from behind.

“Maybe,” Dean turns his head and kisses Cas’s cheek. A bit of love, a bit of heart and finding home.

11 Questions Tag Game

I was tagged by @tobythewise - that’s for the tag! 

1. Post the rules

2. Answer the questions given

3. Make 11 questions of your own

4. Tag 11 people (or less lol)

1) Dream job?

I’m actually pretty lucky in that I landed my dream job a couple of months ago - at least, it’s a job I always dreamed of and never imagined I’d get. I’m an editor of genre fiction - it’s tough but I love it so much!

2) French Mistake or Changing Channels?

Changing Channels - it’s so ridiculous and it always makes me giggle. 

3) What song has been stuck in your head lately?

Stacy’s Mom by Fountains of Wayne 

4) Who is your favorite female supernatural character?

This is really tough but I think it’s probably Charlie - mostly because she’s kinda like me! I adore her and wish she’d been around longer. I also super love Jody and Meg 2.0 - they’re both kickass in their own way.

5) What’s your favorite food?

Probably ice cream - it’s just utterly delicious. If I have to pick savoury then I’m going for a British roast dinner (made by my mum) with roast pork!

6) Favorite season?

I adore Autumn - crunchy leaves, crisp mornings, foggy breath and snuggly jumpers! It makes me very happy. 

7) Take out of homecooked meals?

I do like the occasional take out but I’m a big fan of home cooking. I cook alot and so does my husband and we’re always trying new things - yes it can take a while but it’s always worth it!

8) How has the internet/fandom changed you?

This is a tough one. I’ve been writing fanfiction with friends since I was twelve or thirteen, so it’s always been a part of my life. But, I’m very new to Tumblr (I resisted it for a long time) and since I’ve joined I’ve signed up for challenges and met some amazing people! 

9)  Favorite ships.

I love Dean/Cas but I’ve started falling into Dean/Cas/Jimmy as well (I wanna write something for this soon). I also love Sam/Jess and Sam/Eileen. Outside of Supernatural, I adore Scorbus (Harry Potter & the Cursed Child) and I like Zutara as well (Avatar: The Last Airbender). Also Steggy, Stucky and Peggy/Steve/Bucky. 

10) Do you have a pet?

Well I do have an elderly labrador but she lives with my mum as we can’t have pets in our flat. I’d love dogs and a horse though!

11) Favourite Holiday

I do love Christmas (because Christmas) but if I can count it, I’m counting my birthday. I love my birthday and this year I also got married on it as well, so it’s extra special!

My Questions:

1. What is your comfort food?

2. Your favourite book or books?

3. What is your favourite season?

4. Three words to describe you.

Musical Tag

So the lovely @robotsnchicks asked if there were any songs that helped or inspired my Pinefest fic… 

This is the hardest question ever because my fic is so angsty! Plus I don’t listen to alot of music while I write - I tend to use an ambient mixer (usually rain/thunderstorms). But I’m sure I can think of 10 songs that may have inspired it… 

1. When we Die by Bowling for Soup 

2. Bad Girlfriend by Theory of a Deadman (If you’ve seen the video you’ll what scene it inspired when you read it…) 

3. Crazy Bitch by Buckcherry (Same as above - it’s also inspired an unrelated spin off which I’m currently writing) 

4. Angel by Theory of a Deadman (This is the most Destiel song ever - it begins with the line “I’m in love with an Angel” for Chuck’s sake)

5. Make You Feel My Love by Adele

6. God Only Knows by The Beach Boys

7. Goodbye by Benny Goodman

8. Sonate No.14 “Moonlight” in C-Sharp Minor by Beethoven

9. Angel with An Attitude by The Ditty Bops

10. I’m with You by Avril Lavigne 

Whew! That was a toughie to be honest. Ok, so I’m inflicting this on @lunarxylop, @tobythewise, @jhoomwrites, @saltnhalo, @snarkysnartes, @thedogsled anyone else who cares to join in! I’m asking you: What music has inspired your latest piece of writing or WIP? 

[wheniwrite28]

Ah, it feels like yesterday when I had 100 followers and I wanted to do this post. But I forgot about it and few days later it was some 135. So I kind of left it to that. Also I was very sure 50% were porn blogs so... you know, didn't feel like I earned that. This time though, I would like to say a big? Huge? Giant? Mammoth? Thank you to everyone who follows me.

In lieu of actually getting 200 people to like my stuff, I can't really draw much but if you want me to write something for you, let me know. :) :)

Special thanks to @paradoxical-head @warlocks-and-angels @bend-me-shape-me @whyjm (thank you for letting me flail over Dean Cas and Spn in general.)

@lunarxylop thank you so much for seeing this blog and thinking my stuff was worth reblogging. Means a lot to me.

Let me know if anyone wants anything!
