I don't remember much, but it's an older fic, on the longer side. Definitely high school. Sam (possibly girl Sam) tells some kids at school that he's dating Dean, but he isn't, it's before anything wincesty happens between them. He asks Dean if he'd play along and Dean agrees. It's a slow build, filled with fluffy schmoopy scenes, stuff like Dean walking Sam to class and carrying his books, holding hands etc. They start to get real comfortable 'pretending' and finally admit they don't want to pretend anymore and become a real couple. Pretty sure John's away the whole time. I might be getting another fic mixed up with this one, but I think there is a bonfire at some point, for home coming maybe.

I'm sorry I don't have more to go on. :(

FOUND Becoming What We Pretend To Be by locknkey

In the midst of searching for something for else, I found a reference to a timestamp for saucyminx's Wishing You Were Here. It is a wincest story while Sam is at Stanford, told with letters and postcards. It is one of my favourites and I didn't know there was a timestamp. However, I can't find anything on their AO3 that looks like a timestamp for that story. The link I saw didn't have the title and was to the now-purged Livejournal. Does anyone have a copy of this, or know where I could find it?

I’ve poked around the tags and haven’t found this, so I’m hoping someone can help me.

-Jared is kidnapped when he’s a kid (by an OMC?)

-Jared and Jensen were at a park at the time.

-Jared (I think) went to get ice cream and never returned?

-I’m pretty sure it was a Big Bang.

Thanks!
