Summary:Â For two years, Deanâs been slaving away beneath his boss â many label him a secretary, but he fucking hates that and feels like it only applies to someone wearing a pencil skirt, so he insists on his title of Executive Assistant. And for what? In the vain hope that one day heâll manage to become an editor for Sandover Publishing, and that heâll see the manuscript that heâs slaved over since college finally realized in print.
Thatâs the dream, anyway.
Right now, heâs fucking late.
Dean wants to be an editor. Castiel just wants to stay in the country.
âThe Proposalâ â as youâve never seen it before.
