I just finished reading Infrangible Road and I absolutely loved it. Can anyone recommend other fics where Dean and Sam aren't raised as hunters?

We Know Each Other As We Always Were (http://mickeym.livejournal.com/1029663.html)
In 1941, while the world is at war, Sam Winchester falls in love with his brother. They're young, they're in love, and in spite of the hardships of life around them, the world is a pretty good one for them. Until Dec. 7th, 1941, when Japan launches an air attack on Pearl Harbor, sending the US to war against Japan. Dean Winchester feels he needs to join the Army; needs to help fight the good fight and help save lives. He promises he'll return, but can he keep that promise?

A Life Most Ordinary (http://sonofabiscuit77.livejournal.com/30497.html)
Sam and Dean Winchester are two ordinary brothers living ordinary, small-town lives. Okay, so maybe having a mother who was brutally murdered by one of America’s most notorious serial killers and a father who needs 6 different kinds of medication to get out of bed in the morning is not that ordinary, but the rest of their problems: relationship failures and job disappointments, too many bills and too much overtime, and Dean’s two kids, 9 year-old Jonah with his disturbing passion for the music of Lady Gaga and 6-year old Simon with his severe hearing loss, well they’re entirely ordinary... The only thing extraordinary about Sam and Dean is this: the story of how they fell in love and how they learned to cope in such an ordinary world with such an extraordinary love.

Baba O'Reilly and Eleanor Rigby Walk Into a Bar (http://sammehsayum.livejournal.com/4122.html) by [livejournal.com profile] sammehsayum Mary never died and if the supernatural exists, it leaves the Winchesters alone. When Dean Winchester was four years old he almost lost his younger brother for the first time to a fire. When Dean Winchester was eighteen he almost lost his brother a second time to a full bathtub and a pack of sleeping pills, citing some decidedly unbrotherly feelings in his suicide note. At twenty-two he's about to lose him for a third time to Stanford University.

Not sure if this fits what you want because although they weren't raised as hunters, they were raised apart and when they meet, they have no idea who the other is. It's an incredibly moving story. Old Ghosts (http://www.corplink.com.au/~gillianm/Old_Ghosts_01.htm) by Gillian Middleton. Sam and Dean were separated as children and meet as adults, not knowing they are brothers. They fall in love, but they have Dean's past & Sam's family to contend with. And then there is the biggest secret of them all...

Elements of Journalism or: How to Win Friends and Alienate Your Superiors (http://story-monger.livejournal.com/12919.html) by [livejournal.com profile] story_monger I adore this story. I was lucky enough to do the art for it. Sam Winchester needs a job. He's a news reporter who recently stepped down from his comfortable position with the Los Angeles Times after his mix-up in a questionable case of journalism ethics. Luckily for him, his brother and Bobby think they can snag him a job at the New Eldritch Herald, a small-town newspaper in the middle of Kansas. And they do. And Sam meets Castiel Novak: the photography editor who everyone agrees resembles the Grumpy Cat meme. Several things happen after that: Sam and Cas develop a friendship, Cas keeps photographing everything, Dean and Sam try to figure out how to be brothers again, Sam starts to realize Editor-in-Chief Michael Alef sort of hates him, and everyone partakes in a hefty dose of vigilante journalism.

Just a warning in case you don't like Wincest - the first two are wincest stories, the last is gen.

I've got my Junkie 'Verse (http://nblaque-impala.livejournal.com/5885.html#cutid1) where the boys aren't raised as hunters. There's a few dark themes in there (mostly rotating about drug use), so a no-go if that's not your thing :)
