In this human form, Rebekah had a great many number of complaints: hunger gnawed so easily, less powerful but more frequent than the undeniable bloodlust of a vampire. There were headaches and fatigue; sleep now an essential rather than a luxury to pass the time and break up the one long, looming stretch of eternity that lay before the Mikaelsons. Most of them, anyway. Years had gone by in the blink of an eye under the thumb of a cured life.
As an Original no longer, Rebekah’s brothers avowed not to include her on matters of squabbling French Quarters factions or Marcel's latest ploy (the last, perhaps, a blessing in disguise). This stung, despite her centuries-long freedom here at last, but there was one very human thing that made this bloody helpless body worth its while.
Beneath his chest, the thumping of Dean Winchester's heart resounded. Golden locks splayed over the sleeping man's bare skin, and Rebekah shifted quietly as not to wake the slumbering mechanic or the little ones who shared their bed.
They were vacationing in some bloody rental home in Idaho, as part of a godforesaken roadtrip that was Dean's idea. Family bonding. She suspected it was more of a way for the former hunter to stretch his legs and break free of making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
Cruisin' down the highway in Baby was surely something of a different experience for Dean this time around. In Sam's seat sat the woman Dean had been keen to kill back in the day. Their three children hadn't quite learned to shut up yet, so it was fighting and crying and asking questions all the way up until Dean drowned their voices out with blaring music.
Just past the Idaho state line, Rebekah wondered if he regretted it, just a little bit. It was a not a question of love for the white picket life two restless, tortured souls had built, but a very human wondering. A part of him would wish it was Sam in the passenger’s seat.
A new thud, faint but present, caused Rebekah to open her eyes. She flicked Dean's nose. "Hey, did you hear that? Dean?" Pushing up to her elbows, she kept her voice low. "I don't know about you, but I'm not in the business of trusting things that go bump in the night."

Benny spent a year just watching dean desperately look for Castiel all over purgatory, praying every night, refusing to leave without his angel
proceeded to be really mad at Cas for abandoning Dean only to be told Cas left to draw the monsters away from dean so he would be safe and realized the angel is even worse than dean
and promptly slipped out of the love triangle

I love an "I can't believe I'm in love with this idiot" dynamic. Where person A is just The Worst and person B is like "no accounting for taste, mine specifically, but what can I say? I like them."

Castiel was a funny little bitch actually. because he led a whole legion of angel. killed thousands of demons. Fought through entire Hell. Just to get to Dean Winchester. He rebuilt his body meticulously. freckle by freckle. He branded him! He gripped Dean tight!!! AND THEN...he left him in the coffin forcing Dean to dig himself out of his own grave--
