Summary: Supernatural is getting a special guest star
Characters: Jared/Jensen; Michael Weatherly, Pauley Perrette, Chad Michael Murrey

***

Jensen tried not to snort into his coffee as Kripke went over the guest star schedule. Eric looked over at him with trepidation. “Jensen, I know you’ve worked with him before…” It was kind of fun watching him get all flustered trying to not bring up the old rumors, yet at the same time make sure that he hadn’t pissed off one of his stars.

“It’s fine.” He shook his head trying to hide his smirk behind his coffee

“I can find someone else.” Kripke added quickly, watching Jensen closely

“What’s the big deal?” Jared asked reading through the script. “You’ve never been this careful about guest stars.”

Eric shifted and looked over at Jensen. “We don’t have to use him.”

Jensen finally lost it and started laughing; they both just stared at him. Jared frowned looking between the two of them. He knew he was missing something and he hated being left out of the dark. “Okay what the hell?!”

“Eric, the rumors are just that, rumors.” Jen explained. “I have no problems working with Michael. He’s a good guy.”

“Weatherly?” Jared frowned more and slightly confused. From what he heard Weatherly and Jensen hated each other. “Didn’t you two like have it out over Abba…”

“Alba,” he corrected holding back his eye roll. One day he was going to have to write a tell all, and put the damn rumors to rest. Though they all still did get a kick out of them. “Things were tense on the set towards the end, but it had nothing to do with Michael and me. We both let the rumors spread it ‘cause was easier than dealing with it.”

“So you’re fine about him coming in to play a fellow Hunter for a few episodes?” Kripke asked relieved. Michael Weatherly was perfect for the role of Mark Crisaf, a fellow Hunter from Dean’s past.

“Hell yeah. Besides who do you think sent him the script?” Jensen downed the rest of his coffee and stood up. “Come on Sasquatch. Dean’s got to save Sammy again…”

“So you didn’t break up his engagement with Jessica??” Jared asked following Jensen to the set. He had always wondered but had never asked his friend. Figured if Jensen wanted to tell him, he would. Over the past four years it had never come up, until now.

“Ah no.” Jensen shrugged. “What happened between them is no one’s business. They know what happened, them and a few friends. What the gossip rags said…is mostly crap.”

“But you got a bad rap from it.” Jared pointed out. If he had nothing do with the breakup why did he let people think he did?

“The rumors didn’t stop me from getting Smallville, then this,” Jensen said as they walked into wardrobe and make up. Mainly because his agent, who most people didn’t realize he shared with Michael, had no qualms getting into directors’ and producers’ faces and letting them know the truth if need be. But his agent had never needed to. He got Smallville on his own merit, and the same with Supernatural. “Nor did it stop Michael from getting NCIS. We’ve all moved on.”

“Still…” Jared grumbled as he sat in the chair. Why didn’t Jensen just tell him what the hell happened? “He should have just…”

“Dude, drop it.”

Jared shut up and looked over at Jensen. He knew that tone. Unless he wanted to truly piss Jen off, which would lead to the whole set pissed off at him because Jen was irritable and grumpy. Though Kim would probably love him because Dean Winchester would be out and the scenes would turn out amazing. But it wouldn’t matter ‘cause Jared would be in hiding.

***

The questions and thoughts never left his mind through filming. Luckily Sammy was in a contemplative mood and a bit pissy, so it worked out well in the end. He went home, fed the dogs and tried to concentrate on tomorrow’s scenes. Irritated, he tossed the pages onto the coffee table and stalked into the kitchen to get a beer.

Normally Jensen would come over, run some lines and lose spectacularly to him playing Halo. But he canceled saying he had things to do, and would see him the next day. Jared couldn’t help but feel he had been shafted.

He sat down at his computer and did some Googling. There wasn’t a lot about Michael Weatherly, most of it centered on the controversy about Jessica Alba and Dark Angel. There were a few gossip and fan sites that stated they had heard that Jensen and Michael had fought over Alba, and led to the show ending. But no one really could say what happened. The three major principles never talked about it, they also were rarely seen in each others’ presence.

Jared flipped off the computer when all the stuff he found dealt with Michael’s role on NCIS. There was some mention of someone in his life, but he never said a name. Jared couldn’t help but admire the fact Michael seemed to protect her from the Hollywood hype.

He grabbed his phone and dialed Chad. He always seemed to know the inner, behind the scenes workings of Hollywood.

“Dude, what do you know about Michael and Jensen?” Jared asked Chad getting straight to the point

‘Why?’Chad asked.‘Welling would be a better source; he’s worked with both of them.’

“Weatherly not Rosenbaum.” Though he wondered if maybe they knew something. They hadworked with Jensen just after Dark Angel.

‘Whatever you’re thinking drop it.’Chad’s voice turned deadly serious.

Jared looked at the phone frowning. Now that he wasn’t expecting. “Why?”

‘Shit went down and it’s not good to gossip.’

“This is coming from the man who calls me every time Paris Hilton crosses the street with her dog.” Jared growled into the phone. Chad knew something and wasn’t giving up the information. That alone made Jared worry. Chad and Jensen didn’t get along, but they tolerated each other. Chad though would give out anything to humiliate Jen, so if he’s not talking about this? It must have been huge.

‘Just drop it, just know the rumors aren’t true.’

“How do you know this and I don’t?” He asked.

‘Dude I know everything, so why all the questions?’

“He’s guest starring on Supernatural…” Jared sat down on the couch, Sadie jumping into his lap. He could hear Chad’s pause. “Chad.”

‘Listen to me carefully.’

Okay. What the fuck? Where was his fun-loving douchebag? This serious Chad was starting to freak him out.

‘Do notdo anything to piss off, hurt, or upset fragile Jenny in Weatherly’s sight.’ Chad sighed. ‘So no spouting off any secrets or asking questions or declaring your undying gay love.’

“I’m not in love with Jensen.” He rolled his eyes. It wasn’t the first time Chad had commented about this, and he doubted it would be the last. Jensen was his best friend; he loved him like a brother. That was it.

 

‘Okay, I see we are still in denial land. Have a good time there, but Jay, I’m not kidding on the Weatherly thing.’

Jared frowned as he hung up the phone. “I’m not in love with him.” He made his point to the dogs. Both dogs just looked at him then went back to sleep. “I’m not.”

***

Jensen walked around his kitchen cleaning up. He would have preferred to go over to Jared’s and play Halo and just shoot the breeze, but he wanted to get the place cleaned up. There was no way he was going to let Michael stay at a hotel. He had moved out of the hotel and into a condo after they got season three. He agreed with Kripke that once they passed three they would likely get four and five. Jensen was tired of living in a hotel, so he got a nice little place. Jared had done the same, but instead of a condo, he got a house for his dogs. He actually didn’t live that far from Jen, just about five miles further down the road.

He laughed as Michael ranted on about some of Pauley’s antics on the set. Jensen was looking forward to working with him again. At least this time, there would be less tension, and the two characters would be fun to play off of. He was still working on how to play Dean’s relationship with the Hunter, it would be a good challenge. This whole season had him playing a wide range of emotions and really pushing him in his acting; he loved every moment of it, even if he rarely slept.

“By the way, you do realize you’re an evil douchebag who’s ruined my life and I should never speak to you again, but you always say the sweetest things and I just crawl back.” Jensen commented getting him to stop his ranting.

‘Have you been reading fanfiction again?’Michael chuckled.

“No. I try to avoid it. There’s only so much I can take of Jared or Chris coming in to save me from the ‘insert evil person here’.” He found some of it humorous; at other times, it scared the shit out of him.

‘So why am I evil again?’ Michael asked curiously. ‘There’s not a lot of RPS for NCIS. Though we all know about Gibbs and DiNozzo and their big gay love affair.’

“Dude. Wincest. I win that argument. And besides we all know you’re a douchebag who likes to prey on innocent Texas boys.” Jen pointed out.

‘Hmmm. I should tell this to Pauley. It’s proof I’m an actual evil warlord.’ Michael’s laughter filtered through the phone. Jensen’s eyes narrowed. He could tell Michael was plotting, which was never a good idea.

“How are you getting the time off from NCIS to film for us?” he asked as he grabbed a beer and fell onto the couch exhausted.

‘I suggested Tony needed to have a mental breakdown and take off for an episode or two. Let them showcase Probie and Abby.’Michael shrugged.‘And that I needed to just recharge; they liked the idea of me guest starring, new channel, different audience, and the possibility of maybe pulling new viewers to NCIS.’

“You still don’t like how they’re dealing with the character?” He could read Michael’s emotions pretty well. Always had, Michael was a damn fine actor, sometimes too good.

‘I like Tony, he’s cool. I just wish they would give him more to work with,‘ he answered. ’It’ll be nice to step out and be a bad ass. I was reading the script; how do you want to play Dean’s and Mark’s history?’

Jensen chuckled, he was just thinking about that. “Well, you know, Dean didn’t hunt with anyone except his daddy and his brother.”

‘Yet he worked, according to the script, a few cases with Mark. I say they had a mad love affair.’

“I hate you.” Jensen grumbled.

‘You love me. The best part of this, it’s stuck in your head and you’re going to gravitate that way.’

And what made the situation worse, was Michael was right. The idea was stuck in Jensen’s head and it wouldn’t go away. The fangirls were going to go apeshit over it. “You know that could be fun to play on Jared. Let Sammy get that blinky puppy look mixed with what the fuck?”

‘Speaking of the Jolly Jared Giant….’ Michael turned serious.

“Not discussing.” Jensen sat up. He wasn’t going to have this discussion not now, not ever if he could get away with it.

‘Don’t make me call your mother.’

“You don’t even….” Jensen shook his head then paused, remembering the last conversation with his mother. “Oh God, you talk to my mother.”

‘On a weekly basis, lovely woman. She sends me cookies and I send her shirtless shots of Harmon, it keeps her happy and me in cookies. Pauley absolutely loves her. Who by the way says you need to do a guest shot on NCIS. She saw pictures of you from “A Few Good Men”.’

“I’m missing part of the story.” Jensen had met Pauley twice and both times she made Jared seem calm and rational. Everyone agreed: Jared Padalecki and Pauley Perrette should never meet. Ever.

There was a loud sigh on the other side of the phone. ‘Fine, make me say it. Her exact words were “hot damn that man needs his ass in dress blues so I can pinch it”.’

“I love her so much.” Jensen couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s only fair. You get me a script I’ll get my ass in Dress Blues.”

‘Did you hear that?’

“What?” Jensen frowned wondering what he was up to.

‘Every fangirl in the world just squeed.’

“Fuck you.”

‘See you next week,’Michael paused. ‘Oh, and Jensen? Don’t think you’ve avoided the earlier conversation.’

Jensen sighed as he hung up. He wasn’t looking forward to it, but one thing he had learned in the years he’d known the older actor was that he didn’t give up easily.

***

Jensen had been hyper all day. Barely able to keep still, he was driving most of the crew nuts, and he thought Kim was going to kill him at one point. They finally gave up and switched around some scenes to let Jensen work out his energy filming some stunt shots.

Even after three hours of filming, Jensen could barely sit still. He was reading over next episode’s script, his leg bouncing in his seat. Jared had finally had it, and slammed his hand down on the leg to keep it from moving. “DUDE! Did you raid my candy stash?”

Jensen flipped him off and kept reading the script, his leg bouncing against Jared’s hand.

“What is with you?” Jared laughed, not used to seeing his friend this excited.

He shrugged. He refused to admit he was hyper and anxious to see Michael. It had been a while since they had actually seen each other. Last time he was down in Los Angeles, and he had gone out to the NCIS set, where poor Tony had the plague. He had just gotten the news Supernatural had been picked up for a full season.

“So I finally get to meet the infamous Dean Winchester!”

Jared turned to see Michael Weatherly walking towards them, he stared in shock as Jensen jumped out of his chair and gave the other man a tight hug. There weren’t many people Jensen let into his personal space. Jared could count them practically on both hands. He frowned slightly. The two seemed especially close which didn’t make sense in his mind, especially with everything he had heard about Weatherly and filming on Dark Angel.

“Good to see you,” Michael smiled at Jensen, cupping his cheek before stepping back. “I have to say Supernatural has been good to you. All grown up.”

“Fuck off.” Jensen shook his head then turned to Jared. “Jared this is Michael, Michael – Jared, better known as the Sasquatch.”

“Don’t be mean, Jen. Everyone’s taller than you.” Michael teased as he held out his hand. “Heard only good things about you.”

“Can’t say the same.” Jared shook his hand.

Jensen turned and stared at his co-star shocked and appalled by what he had said. “A little rude don’t you think?”

Jared blushed and looked down, he wasn’t sure what came over him. “I’m sorry. Just… Jensen’s like my brother, best friend…”

Michael just gave him a smile and a wave of his hand. “I get it. He has tendency to bring out the pit bull in all of us. How about drinks? I’m guessing since you live out here in the boonies you know some good watering holes.”

“Louise’s got the best beer and wings.” Jared grinned turning towards Jensen who had a reserved, closed off expression on his face. One he hadn’t seen since their first days of filming. He turned back to see Michael watching Jensen with a soft concerned expression.

There was something going on, and Jared was determined to figure it out.

***

It was official. Jared didn’t like Michael Weatherly. He was all over Jensen, made him laugh, and he swore they could just have a conversation without speaking. He hated him. That was his job and his position in Jensen’s life.

‘Well Jardina I would say you’ve turned into a 12 year old girl. Shall I come over and we can play dear diary and talk about our crushes…’

“Why did I even call you?” Jared growled as he paced his living room again.

‘Cause I’m like your coolest and hottest friend.’Chad answered.

“Something’s not right about their relationship. He’s controlling Jensen I know it.” Jared sat down to stop his pacing. He knew there was something wrong. Jensen didn’t act like that, all friendly and laughing.

Jared leaned his head back against the couch. He may be a little drunk, but it didn’t stop him from bitching about Michael fucking Weatherly.

‘Dude you need to stop reading fanfiction.’And it didn’t help that Chad was laughing at him. He was so supposed to be his friend, not defending Weatherly.

“Fuck off Chad.”

‘You called me,’he pointed out. ‘You want my advice.’

“Not really.” But he had a feeling Chad was going to give it to him. These past few days had been surreal. Chad was serious. Jen was bouncing and excited. Fuck. Jared had entered the Twilight Zone. All he needed now was Rod Sterling to show up.

‘Too bad. I think you’re upset that Jenny isn’t paying attention to you so you’re acting like a five year old who hates the kid that just transferred in and is stealing your best friend of forever.’ Chad paused then continued. ‘Face it Sasquatch you have no claim on Jensen.’

“He is my best friend of forever.” Jared pointed out pouting.

‘Dude, thanks for making me feel like yesterday’s trash.’

“I didn’t mean that way.” Jared apologized quickly. He didn’t need both his friends ignoring me. “I don’t think Weatherly likes me.”

‘Not shocking considering you’re acting like you’re 12. And Jared, when I’m the one making sense and being rational? You have a problem.’

Shit. Chad had a point. He could hear Sterling clearly in his head. ‘Tonight we will go to a small town in Vancouver where the Sasquatch defends his territory….’

‘And don’t make me like defend your girlie honor. Weatherly is good friends with that Pauley chick and Harmon…. and they can kick my ass.’

“Please….” Jared rolled his eyes. He could so take Mark Harmon, the dude was old.

‘Dude, not kidding. Besides if you piss Jensen off enough it’s just not Weatherly. Remember Kane?’

Jared sighed into the phone. “Why don’t you just tell me what happened on Dark Angel.”

‘Not my place, besides I only got side stories. There’re four people in this world that know went down. Two of them are in Vancouver. One is playing mommy…. the third is still in the Witness Protection Program hiding from Weatherly.’ And with that last piece of information Chad hung up on him. Jared tossed the phone onto the table and lay down on the couch. It just got worse with each passing day.

‘You have now entered the Twilight Zone.’

***

Jensen stalked across the set towards the back trailers. He’s had enough of Jared’s attitude and hell if he was going to put up with it anymore. He didn’t bother knocking, just stormed into the trailer and slammed the door shut.

“You want to tell me what bug crawled up your ass?” he demanded glaring at his co-star. “You were rude to Simon, then yelled at poor Christina, and now you’ve just stormed off the set. What the fuck is your problem?”

“Nothing, just tired.” Jared shrugged turning his back on his co-star. He was tired. He hadn’t slept well the past few days, and he was just sick of watching the two ‘friends’ be all friendly.

“Okay Sammy.” Jensen’s voice dropped into Dean’s normal tone.

He turned back around. “Dude.”

“You don’t think I’ve seen your death glare towards Michael, or the fact you’ve spoken two words to him and maybe four to me outside our scenes.” Jensen leaned against the wall arms crossed, looking very much like a pissed off Dean Winchester.

“Are you fucking him?” Jared was as shocked as Jensen looked. He hadn’t intended to ask what had been on his mind, it had just come out.

Jensen stared at him. “Excuse me?”

Jared shrugged, trying to make it casual. “Simple question.”

“Fuck you, Jared. Who I fuck or see is none of your business.” Jensen pushed off the wall and got into his face. “Even if I was, what’s it to you?”

“He comes in here and you just drop everything. I’ve barely seen you for days. You don’t talk to me, it’s like…” he yelled back.

Jensen backed off, sighing. “It’s complicated, but for your information I’m not fucking him or anyone else for that matter.”

“What’s complicated? Why won’t you just tell me?” Jared demanded. “Dude, we’ve been friends for four years. You told me you were gay straight off, so what’s the issue? He’s not like hurtingyou is he?”

Jensen ran his hands through his hair. “God no. Michael is a good guy, and if you would stop acting like we’re in kindergarten you would see that.”

“I am not,” he muttered shoving his hands into his pockets, not looking at his co-star.

“Dude, you sat in your seat and sulked and glared at him the whole time we were filming, hell we should have just filmed it… You had Sammy’s emo down pat.” Jensen pointed out.

“What do you expect?” Jared glanced over at him. “You never talked about him, the only things I know are from what I’ve heard, and then Chad starts in about not pissing Weatherly off….”

“Chad?” Jensen stared at him in shock. “You talked about this to CHAD!”

“He’s my friend, and… well, dude, he actually defended Weatherly.” Which still freaked the hell out of Jared. He just wanted everything to go back to the way it was, before Michael Weatherly showed up on the set.

Jensen stopped and stared at him slightly in shock. “Really?”

“Why won’t you just tell me?” Jared asked flat out.

“It’s not a good moment in my life, Jared.” Jensen slumped against the wall. “Some things you just don’t want to talk about or think about ever.”

“It’s like there’s a part of you he has, and …” He ran a hand through his hair. It hurt that Jensen wouldn’t confide in him.

Jensen smiled at him, then pulled Jared into a hug. “Jared, Michael is a good friend, we’re close, but what we have…” He stepped back and motioned between them, “is totally different.”

He grinned, seeing Jensen’s smile light up his face and make his eyes just shine. Then it hit him, right at that very moment he knew what bug had crawled up his ass. He was jealous. Fuck. Chad Michael Murray was right. And that was just wrong on so many levels.

He was in love with Jensen.

Jared stepped back shaking his head as to dislodge the thought.

“Jared?” Jensen stepped forward concern in his voice. He had seen a variety of emotions cross over Jared’s face, ending with panic and fear.

“Oh just realized… I, ah need to feed Harley.” Jared grabbed his keys and took off. He had to get out of there. Before he did something stupid and pushed Jensen against the wall and kissed him. He got out of his trailer and headed towards his car ignoring Jensen’s calls. He had to get away. To think.

***

Jensen closed his eyes in frustration. Jay had taken off from the set yesterday, and he still hadn’t answered his phone. “Jared. Look I’m sorry if I said something that upset you. Just call me. Please.” He clicked of the phone and tossed it onto the counter.

“You want to tell me what’s going on?” Michael asked leaning against the couch.

“I don’t know.” Jensen turned towards him. “One minute we were talking, the next he freaked.”

“Jen.”

He looked away hearing Michael’s tone. “He was upset, thinking I was keeping something from him. I told him my relationship with him was different than my relationship with you, and gave him a hug. He then just pulled back all freaked out.” Emotion crept into his voice. “You think he figured it out?”

“That you’ve been in love with the big moron since somewhere around the Wendigo episode?” Michael asked eyes not leaving his friend. “You’ve spoken highly of him, and he seems like a great kid, but what I’ve seen…”

“He’s just upset.” Jensen defended him. “I never talked about Dark Angel. The only thing he knows is all the rumors…”

“Still doesn’t give him the right to screw with you on this.” Michael pointed out. “He’s been ignoring you and treating you like shit the past few days. That’s some friend.”

“Jared’s not like that.” Jensen argued back. “He’s just confused and doesn’t know what’s going on and doesn’t think before acting. He’s a good friend.”

“One who’s ignoring you right now,” Michael pointed out.

Michael had read and seen all the interviews with the two friends. He didn’t know how Jared stayed oblivious to Jensen’s feelings. Every time he looked at Jared there was so much love in his eyes. He also could see the pressure of it weighing down on Jen. He’d always had a soft spot for the guy, ever since that last season of Dark Angel. Despite everything, they all had remained friends. Jessica had called him recently concerned about Jensen’s growing feelings. Her comment: if her husbandhad noticed it…

Michael sighed. It looked like their worst fears were coming true.

“I’m going over there.” Jensen stated as he grabbed his keys.

“That isn’t a good idea.” Michael stood up and followed him to the front door.

“Despite everything, he’s my best friend,” he said heading out the door. “Something is bothering him, and I need to be there.” He closed the door and headed down the path to his car.

Maybe it was time they just got it all out in the open. Jensen just hoped he would at least still have his friend when it was all over.

~*~

Jared had ignored every one of Jensen’s phone calls. He wasn’t sure how he was going to face him now, knowing the truth. He was in love with Jensen. Fuck.

He sure as hell wasn’t calling Chad; the dude would just rub it in, besides he was still freaked out over the whole serious Chad. It was screwing with his perception of the world. He grabbed his phone and called the next best person.

 

‘Jared why are you calling me?’

“Sandy…” He frowned. Maybe this wasn’t a good idea. She sounded annoyed and irritated.

‘I know you want to be friends, but you have to give me time.’

“I don’t know who else to call,” Jared sat down on the couch. “I know you’re still pissed at me, but…”

She sighed, her voice softening. ‘Did you finally figure it out Jared? The real reason you broke up with me?’

“You knew?” he asked his voice small and soft.

‘That you’re in love with Jensen Ackles?’Sandy responded her voice slightly bitter. ‘Yes. I also know he’s been in love with you for years. Why do you think I never wanted to hang out with him? I had to share you with him…’

Jared lifted his head, frowning even more. Jensen in love with him? He never said anything or made a move. He always encouraged his relationship with Sandy, even arranged for him to go see her. Was there when they broke up. “He never did anything.”

‘He didn’t have to.’Sandy pointed out. ‘You spend nine months of the year in each others’ back pockets. He was always there…’

“He didn’t break up our relationship Sandy.” Jared’s voice dropped.

‘Didn’t he?’she snapped back at him.

“No, he didn’t.” Now he was getting pissed. “He was shocked when I told him I broke it off. There was no plotting or whatever you think there was. Jensen has been nothing but supportive and a good friend….it was the distance Sandy. I loved you. Yes. But time and space and you know it just wasn’t enough.”

‘And yet you call me to tell me you’ve fallen in love with him.’Sandy pointed out. ‘It’s not the first time he’s broken up a relationship….’

“Don’t talk about things you don’t know anything about.” Jared growled. For the first time he was actually truly pissed at Sandy. “Michael Weatherly is filming here, and they’re friends….”

‘Jared, it wasn’t Jessicahe was fucking.’Sandy snapped. ‘Face it, Jensen is a pretty boy who has a tendency to lure his co-stars into bed. Talk to Welling, he’ll tell you.’

“Who are you?” Jared demanded. “Because the woman I loved and wanted to marry isn’t this cold vindictive bitch.”

‘Well that sweet girl got dumped for a pretty boy.’She slammed the phone down in his ear.

Jared growled low, half tempted to call her back and tell her off, but his momma taught him better than that. Though he couldn’t help but wonder about Michael. Jared shook his head; Jensen said he hadn’t slept with Michael.

No. He said he wasn’t sleeping with him at the moment.

He knew it was going to make things worse, but he had more questions than answers. He dialed Tom’s number, hoping to God he didn’t destroy the relationship he had with Jen.

 

‘Hey, what’s up?’

“I’m going to ask you something, and I’m hoping you’re either not going to kill me, or tell Jen so he’ll kill me.” Jared paced the living room.

Tom sighed on the other end. ‘This have anything to do with Michael visiting the Supernatural set?’

“Yes… No…. sort of.” He answered.

‘We’ve all heard the rumors, but Jensen… he’s not that guy Jared. You know that.’Tom said. ‘What’s this about?’

“Sandy said to ask you about him romancing co-stars.” Jared said in a rush.

‘Wow, who knew she could be so bitchy.’ Tom laughed. ‘I asked Jensen out. He said no; as a matter of fact he freaked. I thought maybe I read him wrong… it was a mess for a while. Hell Weatherly called me… dude’s scary.’

“What happened, you guys are good friends.” Jared asked curious.

‘We talked it out. I know why he freaked and it had nothing to do with me. Don’t ask me Jared.’Tom warned. ‘Later I met Jamie…’

“I think I’m in love with him.” He said quickly just to get it out.

‘Are you expecting me to be shocked? We already know Jared.’Tom sighed. ‘Only ones who didn’t know were you and Jen.’

“What do I do?” Jared asked his friend.

‘Whatever you do, make sure you’re sure.’Tom told him. ‘You do not want Weatherly down your throat. Though if you’re feeling vindictive, mention Sandy to him…. then let me know ‘cause I want to watch.’

“Dude…” Jared shook his head. Weatherly can’t be that bad. Though he hadn’t talked to him a lot, he seemed like a nice guy. Soft smile, kind eyes. Someone Jared would probably get along with. He so needed to apologize to the man, get to know him better.

He looked up when he heard a knock at the door. He shouldn’t have been surprised to see Jensen on the other side. “I gotta go.”

‘My honest opinion… You two are good for each other.’

With that Tom hung up leaving Jared alone with Jensen. Jared took a deep breath and opened the door a slight smile on his face. “Hi.”

Jensen just stared at him. “What the fuck Jared?!”

“I’m an idiot who sometimes has the emotional fortitude of a five year old.” Jared shrugged opening the door further. “Sorry.”

Jensen sighed and entered the house. “Forgiven, you stupid lug.” He knelt down as the dogs came running from the kitchen to greet him. “Hey guys.” He petted and laughed as they licked him. He patted them both then stood back up. “Do you want to explain?”

Jared was never one for words. He tended to act before thinking. This was one of those moments. He stepped up to Jensen and slipped his hand behind his head, leaned down and kissed him.

He wished he could say it was the kiss to end all kiss, but he couldn’t. It was awkward, tense, and too much teeth. He relaxed slightly then deepened the kiss; it become smooth and soft and so fucking good. Jared moaned and pulled him closer, tucking Jensen against his body as he began to explore the warm mouth with his tongue. Needless to say he was a little shocked when he found himself pushed back and Jensen glaring at him.

“Jared. What the fuck!?” Jensen yelled trying to catch his breath. The last thing he had expected was for Jared to kiss him.

“I’m in love with you.” Jared moaned. “Okay that wasn’t quite how I was going to say that.”

Jensen stared at him in shock. “Have you entered the Twilight Zone or something, because this is all over the map.”

“Actually I have: Chad is like giving good advice, you’re friends with Weatherly, Sandy was being a bitch….” Jared flung his hands around. “I have no idea what is going on, and there you were all concerned for me, and you just have the greenest eyes and I just had to kiss you. And I want to do it again.”

Jensen pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to find some sense in the situation. He shook his head, turned and walked into Jared’s kitchen, grabbed some beers and came back out handing one to Jared.

“Sit.” He pointed to the couch while taking his own seat on the recliner. “Let’s start from the beginning because I feel as if I’m missing the plot line here.”

Jared sighed and sat down. He downed half the beer before he could even figure out where to start. He picked at the beer label, just listening to the silence. He looked up and focused on Jen. Seeing him in a different light. He always knew he was handsome. Everyone knew it. But it was always the little things that he had found endearing and never really realized it.

“When I got the role for Sam, everyone was telling me to be careful because of what happened on Dark Angel.” Jared began to speak. “Though no one told me exactly what happened. Just that the last season was hell, and by the end Weatherly and Alba had split and somehow your name was attached. But then I met you, and what I had heard and the living breathing person in front of me didn’t match. So I just chocked it all up to stupid rumors and moved on. Figured if you brought it up I would ask, but you never did.”

“Like I said, it’s a time in my life I don’t like to talk about,” Jensen’s voice was softer than normal. Jared could really hear the emotion behind it.

“I honestly didn’t think about it again, until Eric said Weatherly was guest starring and it just wouldn’t leave my head, and you weren’t talking and acting all weird like.” He downed more of his beer. He was trying to get all straight in his own head. “So I called Chad.”

“You mentioned that earlier,” Jensen picked at the beer bottle not really drinking the alcohol.

“He told me to drop it, and not to piss off Weatherly, which by the way dude. What the fuck is up with him, being all well Dean-like with you being Sam.” Jared pointed his bottle at Jensen slightly accusingly.

Jensen’s eyebrow rose at the tone and implication. “Michael is a close friend…”

“Then why don’t I know him?” Jared demanded. “I’m your like best friend forever…” He ignored Jensen’s ‘dude’ look and kept rambling. “I mean he doesn’t have beers with us or go out. You never talk about him, or hang out.”

“It’s not the same.” Jen tried to explain. He didn’t know how to explain his relationship with Michael. They didn’t hang out, but they talked all the time. “Between Supernatural and NCIS we don’t see each other…”

“But why haven’t you mentioned him?” Jared pushed. “Are you ashamed of me?”

“No Jared.” Jensen set the bottle down on the table. “What did Chad say about Michael?”

“That what went down was bad, and not to talk about it and that only you, Michael, Alba and some mystery fourth guy who, according to Chad, Weatherly had offed and hid the body out in the desert know the truth.” Jared looked up smiling slightly at Jensen’s full laugh. It was one of the things he had grown to love about the older man. His laughter, the one that was wild and free.

“I’ll have to tell him that,” Jen smiled at Jared then turned serious. “How in all of this are you suddenly in love with me? I mean Jared, you’re straight.”

“Well not actually, I’m more bi…ish.” Jared looked away from Jensen knowing full well how his friend would react. “And before you start yelling, I never told you because I was with Sandy, I fully intended to marry her, settle down with the dogs, have kids, the whole package deal.”

Jensen nodded, biting back the hurt feelings, “Speaking of…what does Sandy have to do with any of this?”

“I freaked Jen,” he admitted. “I realized my feelings and freaked. It just hit me how much I did care for you, how jealous I was of Weatherly, how much I didn’t know and wanted to know. And through it all my head was going ‘he’s mine’. I didn’t want to call Chad, ‘cause dude despite this being the twilight zone, I sure as hell wasn’t getting relationship advice from him.”

“So you called your ex?” Jen shook his head. “Dude…”

“I know, not the brightest idea but she was always my friend, well until now. Now I’m thinking payback for her bitchy comments.” Jared was still livid over the stuff she said. Yeah, he got that she had the right to be upset, but to blame Jensen for everything – Bitch.

“Let me guess; she brought up Dark Angel?” He gave a snort. “Did she actually call me a slut?”

“Not in those words,” Jared growled lightly. “But in the end she went off saying you had seduced me away from her, and that you had a history of it and even told me to call Tom….”

“And you called him didn’t you?” Jensen shook his head. “So you talked to everyone about this but me.”

“I didn’t know how to bring it up.” He defended himself. “You were out hanging with Michael and I had no idea what the hell was going on.”

“Yet you didn’t ask.”

“I did!” Jared stood up and stared pacing. “Asked you about the rumors and you told me to drop it.”

“And your behavior really didn’t give me any indication that I should trust you with that information now did it.” Jensen’s voice rose. Jared couldn’t find out about that time. He would never look at him the same again. He couldn’t live with that. Jared said he loved him, but if he knew… If he knew the truth, he would hate him. He stood up and moved for the door; the memories were coming too strong and he really didn’t want to deal with them, or with Jared.

“So now you’re just going to leave.” Jared blocked his path to the door. “I spill my guts, tell you what I’m thinking and you just leave.”

“You don’t love me Jared.” Jensen could feel just everything crash around them. The years of friendship crumbling right through his hands.

“Don’t tell me what I’m feeling, man.” He refused to back down, refused to let Jensen throw away possibly the best relationship either man could have. “I love you. I’m an idiot for not figuring it out earlier. I’m also freaked out over this whole thing, concerned for you, worried about us. Please Jensen don’t walk away…”

Jensen looked up at him; he leaned forward and kissed the corner of Jared’s mouth. “I’m sorry.” He whispered before moving around Jared and was out the door before he could respond.

“Fuck!” Jared grabbed the door but Jensen was already down the path and into his car. He slammed the door shut, causing both dogs to bark and rush the front door. “It’s okay.” He petted both of them, calming them and himself.

He wasn’t sure what went wrong, or where it went wrong. He had to figure out what to do, how to get Jensen to open up to him. It was obviously centered around Dark Angel. He stood up and grabbed his keys and wallet. No one ever said he was rational when it came to getting what he wanted. He would go directly to the source.

Jared turned back to his dogs. “I love you guys and if Michael Weatherly kills me know I’ll be waiting for you in heaven.”

Harley and Sadie just wagged their tails.

***

Michael was fit to be tied. He had just gotten off the phone with Jessica, who had just got off the phone with Jensen. Seems the large lug just made things worse, and now Jen was hiding out somewhere in Vancouver. Jessica offered to come up and go all mother on Jen, and if that didn’t work lure him out with the baby. She wasn’t above using the power of ‘Special Uncle’ to get Jensen out of hiding.

There were days when he wished he could bury that fucking bastard for what he did to Jensen. To them all. In the end, he and Jessica ended up happier with the people they were with, both with good careers and happy futures. When Jensen had gotten Supernatural, Michael had made everyone on the NCIS set watch the show, to help the ratings – damn CSI and Grey’s Anatomy and their little war.

He watched as he saw Jensen start to look good. His eyes were bright and full of life, he was laughing, living. He knew it was due to the Sasquatch. But right now he was going to hunt down Bigfoot and have a word with him.

Michael opened the door and stopped short. “Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t kill you?”

Jared stopped short, his hand ready to knock on Jensen’s door. He was surprised when the door flung open to reveal Weatherly. “’Cause murder is bad?” He hesitated in answering.

“I play an NCIS Agent. I can make you disappear.” He grabbed Jared and pulled him into the condo. “You will explain to me exactly what happened, if I don’t like your answer Kripke will have to figure out how to finish off the season with dear old Sammy with broken bones.”

Jared stared at him wide eyed. “Fuck you’re scary.”

Michael just gave him his best DiNozzo grin. “You have no idea though I’m nothing compared to a five foot six inch petite new mother, who thinks of Jen as a protected family member.”

Jared dropped his head. “I don’t know what happened.” He looked back up. “I told him I loved him, and he said I didn’t then left.”

Michael sighed. It was worse than he thought. “Want a beer?”

“Got anything stronger?” he asked suddenly tired. “I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do. How do I get him to believe me?”

Weatherly pulled out the scotch and moved into the living room. He poured them each a glass and downed his. He was going to betray Jensen’s trust, and he hoped to God at the end of the day he still held Jen’s friendship. He could hear and see it in Jared’s eyes and tone. He loved the boy, truly loved him. He was rather slow in figuring it all out, but he had got there and now Jen was running scared. Michael knew exactly what Jen was hiding from; Jared finding out what happened and being afraid he would look at him differently.

“What I’m going to tell you stays here.” He poured them another drink. “I’m trusting that what I’m going to tell you won’t change how you feel about him.”

“Never, nothing you can say will change how I feel. He was my friend first,” Jared waited for Michael to continue. “I just. I just want to love him and him to let me.”

“There is some truth in Jensen being the reason Jessica and I didn’t make it, but not in a negative way.” Michael sat back in the seat falling back to those last months on Dark Angel. “Things were already strained between us; the stress of the show, knowing it was getting canceled. Her parents hated me, mine weren’t thrilled, my ex was giving me problems, and honestly Jessica was too young. I don’t regret the relationship, but it could have never survived. But neither of us were admitting it.”

Jared just sat back and listened. He could hear the emotions in Michael’s voice. There was still warmth there when he talked about Alba, that wasn’t something that was being faked. He would have to apologize to the man for just thinking he was a douchebag.

“They had brought Jensen back and he brought some flair back to the show and I got along with him great. As time went on he got uncomfortable around me and later others. He stopped talking with me during down time; I could barely find him when we weren’t filming. On top of it Jessica and I were fighting more.” He downed his scotch then poured another. He truly hated reliving these moments. “One day I found Jensen in my trailer. He was skittish; you know how he gets when he’s shy and doesn’t want to go sing on stage?”

Jared nodded, laughing. “The man can perform on a stage in front of thousands but ask him to sing for a small group, he runs for the hills.” Christian Kane was still trying to get Jen to record one song with him. Jared loved his voice and was trying to get Kripke to actually let Dean sing.

“He was worse than that; it was like dealing with a feral kitten. It was the first time I really got to see him without make-up. He had rings under his eyes, I could see bruises on his wrists, he looked thinner than I remembered. I had asked him what was going on, just when Jessica stormed into my trailer screaming at the two of us. That she couldn’t believe it, but that ‘he’ had told her.”

“Who?” Jared asked confused. “Told her what?”

“He who shall not be named, mainly because I really don’t want to be killed by Jensen or Kripke or the fangirls, because you went off and killed the fucking asshole and ended up in jail.” Weatherly looked pointedly at him. “He had been telling her that Jensen and I were fucking, and not just fucking but doing kinky shit on top of it. Jen moved away from her and the bruises on his wrist become visible. I stared at them and demand to know how he got them, Jessica’s screaming that I cheated on her, and Jen just suddenly tells both of us to shut the fuck up.”

Jared blinked a few times, he could actually see it. Jensen rarely lost his temper, but when he did mostly people went into hiding, Jared included. There was one, just one incident on the set. A guest director had pushed and pushed, and Jen finally snapped and told him to shove the camera up his ass to get the shot, because they were tired and had been on set for twenty-hours and everyone was going home. When the director tried to stop him, it was like seeing Dean Winchester in the flesh. That particular director never came back to the set.

“We both turned kinda shocked,” Michael smirked. “As you can imagine.”

“Oh yeah.” Jared nodded smiling. “I’ve learned not to poke the quiet ones.”

Michael looked down, staring at the glass in his hand. Jared wondered if he was lost in the memories. He looked back up at Jared, biting back the emotions. “It all came out. This bastard had been cornering Jen, making advances, threatening his career, mine and Jessica’s. Jen had been able to keep out of his way most of the time, he stayed away from the cast and crew so as not to get in them involved…”

Jared closed his eyes. He knew what was coming. Knew deep down what Michael was going to say. He wanted to stop him. Didn’t want to hear, but he knew he had to, for Jen.

“That night Jen didn’t escape. He never gave us details, but the bruising not just on his wrists, but his ankles as well was enough to get the picture. After he was done, he tossed Jensen out of the office and threatened if he went to anyone he would tell Alba that Jen was fucking me.” Michael looked over at Jared, “Something in him snapped and that’s when he came to see me. But the guy must have seen Jen head towards my trailer and told Jessica that he saw us together. I don’t think he expected Jensen to actually tell anyone.”

“I want his name.” Jared said calmly. He already had a list of things he would do to the man. He would tap into Sam’s dark side and go to town. The dude will wish he was in hell by the time Jared got done with him.

“I can’t.” Michael shook his head. “But don’t worry, he didn’t go unpunished.”

“Tell me he’s rotting in the desert somewhere where vultures are picking at his bones?” he asked giving him a slightly crazed smile.

“Worse,” Weatherly smirked. “He’s working on some small radio station in the middle of nowhere. His wife left him and took every penny he had after Jessica had a chat with her.”

Small town in the middle of nowhere. He could find him, maybe get him run over by a tractor. Jared smirked evilly.

“Killing him won’t help Jensen,” Michael pointed out knowing exactly what the younger man was thinking. He had thought it a few times himself. “He never wanted anyone to find out about it, afraid they would treat him differently, and he had reason. I wasn’t the first person he went to. He had gone to the producer before that night and was accused of lying, disgracing a good man’s name then threatened with action against him if Jen spread rumors around.”

“So no one knows?” Jared asked. His emotions were everywhere. He wanted to kill the guy, find the producer and beat the shit out of him, then find Jensen and just hold him and never let go.

“Chad had dealings with the ‘guy’, which is why I guess he told you to back off.” Michael continued. “I doubt he had the same experience, but it wouldn’t be too hard for him to figure things out.”

He would have to give Chad a hug later. Sometimes he forgot how dirty Hollywood could really be. He had heard about these things, but never knew anyone who had them happen to, until now. “So the rumors?”

“It was easier to just let them spread, than anyone asking questions. Both of us were there for Jen while he healed physically and mentally. Jessica and I knew we weren’t going to make it so we just waited until the show was over, and we all moved on. Jen got Smallville on his own merit, and now Supernatural. He’s putting it all behind him and I know one day he’ll go big.” Jared nodded in agreement. He couldn’t wait to see where Jensen took his career. “But I know Jen, he probably feels he can’t be loved…” Michael paused then cringed.

“He’s standing behind us isn’t he?” Jared turned around and stared at him trying to assess the situation. “Don’t blame Michael… Look I don’t care. I love you.”

Jensen just looked at the two of them. He wasn’t sure what to feel. He had been driving for hours, talking to Jessica on the phone, then Christian, telling him for the first time what happened. Then he had to call Steve to tell him to stop Chris from hunting the guy down. In the end he found himself at Tom’s door, one of the few people who had known about the attack and rape. They talked about everything, but mostly about Jared. Tom was blunt and told Jen not to lose the best thing in his life because of some asshole.

He had come home to get his own mind in order, then planned on talking to Jared the next day at the set. To tell him, himself only to hear Michael telling Jared what happened. He wasn’t sure if he was pissed or relieved.

“Pour me a glass,” he muttered as he sat down on the couch next to Jared. “I’m not happy, but I’m also glad I don’t have to say it.”

Michael watched him carefully. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be.” He shrugged. “I’m not sure if I could have actually told him.” He looked over at Jared. “I…”

Jared just leaned over and kissed him. Yeah so it wasn’t his best idea. But he was never one for being rational and practical when it came to things he wanted. He pulled back and sat back in his corner of the couch.

“We could go into a whole chick flick moment about the fact I don’t care and still love you. Which then you’ll reply oh Jared I love you so much and swoon….”

Jensen rolled his eyes. “Bitch.”

“Jerk.” He grinned back. “Honestly Jen. I don’t care. I love you. I’m a moron for not seeing it sooner, and I know I’ve hurt you, but just give us a chance.”

Jen smiled and followed Jared’s example and kissed him, soon finding himself in the taller man’s lap sucking on his tongue with heated passion.

“And on that note.” Michael stood up and grabbed the scotch. “I’m heading to my room…. though maybe I should find a camera, oh god the money I could make…”

Jensen pulled back and smiled at him. “Thank you. I don’t know if I ever said that.”

“You’re welcome.”

~ Hollywood Party ~

Sandy stepped into the girls’ room, shutting the door and shutting out the noise from the party. She sighed and made her way over to the sinks, splashing cool water on her face. She frowned, looking into the mirror. She had heard the rumors from Canada, Jared and Jensen seemed even closer than before the season finale of the show, which was getting attention from critics and press time especially with Michael Weatherly guest starring. There was even talk of Jensen Ackles guest starring in the season finale of NCIS, bringing more publicity to Supernatural.

She couldn’t begrudge them their fame, but it still irked her that she knew Jared was with Jensen, a pretty boy who got everything he wanted. She was still had half a mind to make a fuss…

“Sandy McCoy right?”

Sandy looked up into the mirror and smiled. “Yes. I’m sorry, have we met?”

“No, actually but we have mutual friends,” The woman smiled, slipping an arm around her shoulder. “Hope you don’t mind. I’m a new mom and I just have to show my baby off to everyone.” She pulled out a picture from her purse. “Ah here it is, see this is my baby girl. Do you notice who’s holding her?” Her grip tightened on Sandy’s shoulder. It was a picture of Jensen holding the baby, smiling down at her. “That’s one of her special uncles. She’s got three now, she’s taken to Jared instantly, but then he’s a kid at heart so that’s not surprising. He’s very special in her life, and a mom we’ll do anything to protect our children.” She tucked the picture back into her purse. “Do I make myself clear?”

“Perfectly.” Sandy forced a smile onto her face. “She’s adorable.”

“Takes after her father,” Alba grinned then turned to head out of the room. “Piece of advice. Rumors are just that: rumors.” She stepped out of the room and stopped by another young lady.

“She get the message?” Pauley asked. “Or do I need to go all Abby on her?”

“I think she figured it out, if not,” Jessica smiled a little evilly. “I have my ways.”

“You are so my new friend.” Pauley grinned and the two headed back out to the party.

~ Los Angeles ~

Jared had to stop himself from physically throwing Jensen onto the desk and fucking him. He doubted Pauley would mind but the rest of the cast might not appreciate it. But really it wasn’t his fault. Jensen was in Navy Blues, and it didn’t help that the ‘In The Navy’ was just stuck in his head. He had to find out if Jen could borrow the uniform for a night, weekend, steal it off the set so he could dress him up at any time.

Jared glanced over at Pauley. He had liked her instantly. Well after she had tackled him to the ground and made sure he understood that if she got one phone call from Jensen about Jared mistreating him, well she left it up to his imagination of what she would do. And Jared’s imagination came up with some scary ideas.

Jared just smiled and sat back and watched the team get to work. He could see they had fun on the set, getting along easily with each other. His opinion of Mark Harmon had changed; the dude probably could take him and make Jared cry like a little girl. He had felt the infamous Gibbssmack and stayed hidden behind Jensen the rest of the time he was around. Harmon had just chuckled and walked away. He wondered where the character had stopped and the actor started, ‘cause really Gibbs could be one scary bastard, but in Jared’s opinion Harmon was worse.

He felt his phone vibrating and walked off the set to answer it, not wanting to bring down the wrath of the director. He knew how Kim gets when someone’s cell goes off. He looked down to see who was calling he smiled as he answered. “How’s my loveable douchebag?”

‘What the fuck Jared, why do I have flowers and balloons in my dressing room?!’He growled into the phone.

“Just appreciating my best friend forever,” He laughed knowing Chad was just going nuts over the flowers and balloons.

‘So what I’ve been promoted again? What happen to Ackles? You didn’t do something… oh god I’m going to have to go kick Weatherly’s ass and get mine handed to me aren’t I, that’s why the flowers they’re for my funeral.’

Jared started laughing, “No he’s moved up in rank so you get best friend forever.”

‘You fucked him.’Chad laughed over the phone. ‘Bought time the dude got laid.’

And finally he had moved out of the twilight zone. “Jensen and I are together…”

‘I don’t want details about your big gay love,’Chad interrupted. ‘So all quiet on the Weatherly front?’

“Yeah, he’s cool, so is Alba actually. Oh she sends a message. You screw with me she’ll kick your ass, baby or not.” Jared was surrounded by petite woman who scared the crap out of him.

‘Can she wear that leather piece from Dark Angel, ‘cause dude that would be so fucking hot.’

Jared shook his head and hung up the phone. He was ready to head back inside when Jensen came out. He looked around then quickly leaned in and kissed Jensen quickly. Every time he saw him, there was this section of his brain that just screamed MINE! He hated not being able to show his affection and scream out to the world that Jensen was his, but they had agreed they would keep it hidden until Supernatural was over.

“We’ve wrapped,” Jensen smiled up at him holding his coat and bag close to him. “I say we head home for the day.”

“You’re done for the episode?” Jared asked as they headed for the car. “Or we have to come back, not that I mind. I like hanging out with Pauley.”

“There was a reason we all agreed not to let you to meet,” Jen grumbled as set his bag onto the backseat, then got into the passenger seat.

“I don’t see why.” He looked at his boyfriend innocently.

“Those innocent eyes don’t work on me dude, or anyone else.” Jensen shook his head. “Let just go home. I have to come back in a few days, but right now we’re free.”

“When do you fly out to work with Bay?” Jared shook his head he still couldn’t believe Jen had gotten a role on his next film. “I’m going to miss you.”

“Not until another week. I won’t be far; we’re filming in New Mexico.” He reached over and touched his cheek, “Come on I got a surprise for you when we get home.” Jen gave him a seductive smile then sat back in his seat hands folded on his lap.

Jared prayed they wouldn’t get pulled over, and even if he did he would just point to Jensen and say ‘dude you would break the limits to get home, if you had him whispering dirty things into your ear’. Lucky for Jared and the LAPD he didn’t get pulled over.

Jensen told Jared to go wait in the bedroom while he slipped into the bathroom. He toed off his shoes and socks and started to unbutton his shirt. He had no idea what Jen was planning but he had every intention of being fully prepared to do wicked dirty things to….

Jensen stepped out of the bathroom in full Navy Dress Blues. Jared could only stare, his mouth trying to work, but failing miserably. He finally waved his hands at Jen hoping to get his point across.

“Dude everyone could see you were ready to do me against the desk,” Jensen walked over and stood in front of him. “You weren’t helping the whole we need to keep this quiet by walking around muttering to yourself how wrong it would be if you crashed the scene and fucked me against Tony’s desk.”

Jared just grinned widely. “Well they do show NCIS at eight o’clock so I figured it wasn’t appropriate viewing material.”

“Oh babe, what I have in mind wouldn’t be appropriate on HBO at midnight.” Jensen stepped forward his hands slowly unbuttoning Jared’s shirt and then sliding it off his shoulders. He then snapped the button on his jeans and slid down the zipper, his knuckles brushing over the rigid cock. He pulled down the tight jeans and boxer briefs the slowly stood back up, his hands ghosting over strong thighs and stomach. “Step out of your clothes and sit up on the bed.”

Jared didn’t have to be told twice. He sat up on the bed and waited. Jensen stepped closer to the bed, but stayed out of Jared’s reach. “Lay back, leave your hips on the edge and spread your legs so I can see you.”

Shivers of pleasure ran down his spine as he lay down. He spread his legs, getting his heels to rest on the edge of the bed exposing himself to Jen fully. His cock was hard and dripping with pre-cum, at this moment one touch would send him over the edge.

“Look at you.” Jensen stepped in between his spread legs, his hands caressing over smooth skin, going down the straining thighs, fingers caressing over Jared’s exposed opening. “All laid out for me to do what I want.” He reached over and grabbed the lube from the nightstand. He slicked up two fingers and ran them down the hard cock, watching as it jumped at the contact, over his balls, rolling them just slightly before stopping on the quivering hole. He slipped one finger in, watching the muscles give way, before slipping in the second. “So hot. God Jared, seeing you take my fingers in, I can’t wait to see you take in my cock.”

Jared moaned pushing against the fingers inside of him, wanting more, needing more. “Please Jen…”

“Please what?” He asked slipping in a third finger watching as he slid them out. “What do you want babe?”

“I want…” His back arched as a keening moan escaped his throat. Jen had found that one spot and worked it over mercilessly. “Fuck… Jen just … oh God.”

He needed to be inside of Jared now. He unhooked the pants and pulled out his aching cock quickly slipped on a condom, and lubed up. He braced his hands against Jared’s thighs spreading them wider as he pushed into him, watching as Jared’s body took all of him in, and swallowing him whole. When he was fully sheathed into the tight heat he pulled out just slightly and sank back in both of them moaning.

“So good…” Jen moaned leaning forward and sinking balls deep. “I gotta babe…. I can’t hold back.” He pulled out and slammed back into him, each thrust become harder. He gripped Jared’s hips holding him still as he pounded into the willing body. “Jerk yourself off… Let me see you come all over your stomach. That’s it, take that big cock into your hands, run your thumb over the head…”

His eyes were glued to Jared’s hand as he stroked himself, watched as the pre-cum smeared all over the head and his hand. Until he felt the clinching against his own cock, and looked up to see Jared straining, his neck tight, mouth open as he moaned long and deep. White cum spilled all over Jared’s hand and stomach. Jensen slammed into him hard a few more times then came himself.

Jen wasn’t sure how but he found enough strength to pull out, toss the condom into the trash and clean Jared up. He stripped out of the uniform and climbed into the bed with his lover curling up against his side.

“So I can assume you have a slight uniform kink?” Jensen teased.

“Nah, just a you kink. Though damn I admit you looked really hot, I mean I remember when you did Few Good Men, but that uniform was nothing compared to the one you were wearing for NCIS.” Jared sighed happily. The past weeks had been good. He hated the fact they would be separated for the summer, but it was the name of the business. Then they would start their last year. Jared didn’t really want to think about it, but he knew it was going to be amazing all the way around.

“Well you have Pauley to thank for the uniform.” he yawned, the long day catching up with him. “She thought it was only fair if I stole Michael for Supernatural’s season finale that I had to be in NCIS’ season finale, and she specifically stated in uniform.” He felt Jared pull up the covers and soon fell asleep, content right where he belonged in Jared’s arms.

***

Pauley set the large bouquet of black roses onto her table wondering who would send her flowers. She read the note and laughed. ‘Thanks for the uniform. I’m forever in your debt. Jared.’

Now she just had to figure out how to get that cute Nick Stokes into uniform… She began to plot.
