Dean/Cas prison!AU, explicit, alternating POV, 49 K
Summary: When a bad decision has Dean facing a considerable sentence in prison, he fears the worst. His life has never been easy, but at least he could be there for his brother and had some sense of freedom. The reality behind bars, in the confines of his own cell of all things, seems to be even worse than he ever imagined, as his cellmate is one of the scariest people he’s ever met. Even though the Russian mobster starts out by living up to the reputation that precedes him, soon, a not entirely fear-based tension forms between them. What starts as a risky fling that has to be kept in secret grows into something Dean never expected to find behind the bars.
Teaser: “He’s the one who pulls the strings in here,” Benny continues. “Everybody who ever tried to go against him ended up dead.”
Dean swallows over the lump in his throat. He looks over the yard where Castiel is leaning against a wall surrounded by his suite. The sleeves of his jumpsuit are tied around his waist and the white tank top he’s wearing under is revealing his tattoos. He’s smoking, looking like he isn’t paying attention to anything his companions say.
It takes Dean a moment to realize that him smoking in such a public place is a huge fuck you to the rules. Dean heard that the guards usually turn a blind eye on smoking but Castiel doesn’t even try to be subtle. He doesn’t have to and he makes sure everybody knows.
