J2 Big Bang Gone In An Instant (Or Here Til The Bitter End) Jared/Jensen NC 17 12/13
Back to Chapter 11
They were early for brunch, something that was unheard of. The four of them had started doing brunch shortly after Jensen and Jared had gotten together, a weekly way for them to all catch up and spend some time together. Jensen was most definitely not a morning person, so it usually took Jared longer than usual to get him up and ready for anything more than half a cup of coffee and a short piss before falling back asleep.
That morning, Jared had woken up to find Jensen sitting on the edge of the bed with his head in his hands. He was still, so still that he wondered if Jensen had fallen back asleep sitting up. “Jen?”
“What if this doesn’t work?” Jensen asked without moving. “I don’t…I don’t want this to fuck us up or fuck her and Danni up.”
Jared felt a rush of love fill him and he crawled to sit behind his boyfriend, hugging him from behind. “Jen, don’t worry. She’s as nervous as you are about today.”
Jensen turned to look at Jared, one eyebrow lifted in silent question.
“I spoke to Danni last night. She wanted to make sure that you were on board. Gen is terrified you’re going to hate her forever, but she’s in for it. You’re in for it so we’re going to go, have brunch and then put a stop to this craziness.”
It took Jared five seconds to pick out his outfit for the date. Jensen was on shirt fifteen before Jared warned him to make up his mind or go naked.
They were at their table fifteen minutes early and Jared saw the surprised expression on both girls’ face when they arrived to see them already there. Genevieve’s eyes widened and she stepped backwards, as if wanting to flee but Danni had a firm grasp on her hand and pulled her towards the table.
“Jenny, Jared. Good morning, glad you could make it,” Danneel said cheerily. She sat down and glared at Genevieve to do the same.
Neither Gen nor Jen would meet the other’s eyes.
“Good morning Danni. Genevieve. Have a seat, we’ve ordered drinks and told them we would hit the brunch buffet when you arrived.”
They sat in silence until the drinks came. Danni met Jared’s eyes over the table and they shared a silent conversation. When she spoke, both Genevieve and Jensen jumped.
“Okay, so first Jared and I will go. Then you two can go. You can use this time to chat. Or not.”
“We suggest you chat,” Jared warned sweetly, kissing Jensen’s cheek before doing the same for Genevieve. Without further discussion, Danneel grabbed Jared’s hand and thread their fingers together, walking slowly up to the buffet bar to see the options.
Genevieve rolled her eyes and gave a soft chuckle. “God, Jay and a buffet?”
“We could be here for hours before he fixes his plate,” Jensen agreed with a quiet laugh.
“Plates. Plural.”
Jensen raised his gaze to look at Genevieve’s face. He saw worry and nervousness there as she bit her lip and her eyes darted all around her. “I’m sorry,” was all he could say. He watched the surprise appear on her face and their gazes met. “I…I don’t know how else to say it. But I’m sorry.”
“I …you…you shouldn’t have to apologize to me. It had nothing to do with me,” Genevieve admitted. “And…”
“It does. I know how much he means to you and…I know you were just being protective of him. I’m glad he has you.”
“He loves you so much,” Genevieve’s voice waffled, her eyes darting to where Jared was waiting patiently for a made to order omelette. “And he was so wrecked that night… but that doesn’t give me the right…”
Jensen looked up to see Jared and Danneel watching them from behind one of the plants beside the dessert bar. When he caught them staring they both ducked behind the foliage and scattered away.
“Are they watching us?” Genevieve asked, looking over her shoulder.
“You know it.” Their eyes met and for the first time in weeks they shared a shy smile. “I hate what this is doing to them,” Jensen admitted softly. “And I hate what it’s done to our friendship.”
“I know,” Genevieve let out the breath she had been holding. She looked up through the hair that had fallen in front of her eyes and Jensen could see the tears in her eyes. “Sometimes I get so protective of him. Of all of my friends and I can’t turn it off and I can’t stop it, but you have to know that I love you two together.”
Jensen didn’t know what to say. He moved so that he was sitting beside Genevieve and pulled her into his arms for a tight hug. The force with which she hugged him back nearly toppled them over.
“You’re so good for him and he loves you so fucking much,” she continued.
“Gen, it’s okay. I just…I hated thinking you hated me. And I know how much Jared loves you, and Danni…and god, it sucked thinking that you couldn’t forgive me.”
“I think I hated you that night, but then in the morning I saw how it had affected you, and then Danni and I talked and Jay and I had a talk and by then I just figured it was easier to leave you alone.”
“I’ve missed our double dates,” Jensen admitted. “And not just because I love having my best friend and my boyfriend together at the same time, but because I love them both when they’re with you. You bring something out of them that no one else does, and I like being around you.”
“Me too,” Genevieve said with a soft smile. “I mean, the same, but with you.”
They shared another hug, pulling away only when Jensen’s stomach rumbled loudly. “I think that they’ve been gone for a bit too long,” he said looking around.
“I think we’ve been abandoned.” Jensen looked at Genevieve who was pointing to a table a few feet away. There sat Jared and Danneel, involved in a conversation, halfway through their plates.
Jensen laughed and stood up, reaching out for Genevieve’s hand. “I say forget those two. Let’s get food.”
Midway during their second plates Jared and Danneel came back from getting another round and sat down as though they hadn’t abandoned them half an hour earlier. Genevieve had just finished telling Jensen a story about Jared from their first year and how he’d gotten so drunk he’d actually gone into the wrong dorm room and fell asleep under the person’s desk, after pissing in their closet.
“Do we know you?” she asked, raising an eyebrow as she stared at their two friends. Jensen snickered as both Danneel and Jared froze midway into their seats.
“Yeah, my boyfriend and her girlfriend WERE sitting there, but they abandoned us, so we’ve actually decided to start dating each other,” Jensen added, twirling his fingers with Genevieve’s playfully.
“Oh awesome,” Danneel replied with a giant grin. “So did we, so let’s all go home and have sweaty four-way sex?!”
Genevieve grinned while both Jensen and Jared recoiled slightly.
“I’m all in for that” Gen agreed.
“On second thought,” Jensen made room for Jared. “I’ll stick with what I know and like.”
“And that’s mah cock,” Jared said triumphantly with a grin.
“And ass. Don’t forget ass,” Jensen added as he pressed a soft kiss on Jared’s lips. They rested their foreheads against each other and Jensen gave a nod when Jared asked softly if everything was okay. He was glad to see how happy Jared and Danneel looked at seeing them getting along again.
“Speaking of your cocks,” Danneel said innocently. Both Jared and Jensen choked on the food they had in their mouths and Genevieve ducked as the table next to them sent them glares.
“Turrets,” Genevieve explained with a shrug before turning back to her table.
“Who won?”
Both Jared and Jensen gave broad grins as they met each others’ eyes. “Who do you think won?” Jared asked. When neither girl would answer he shook his head. “Don’t be assholes, who do you think won. I know you’ve both discussed it…don’t pretend like you haven’t.”
Jensen gave both of them the finger. “Fuck you, you haven’t. We’ve heard you discussing it.”
“So man up and tell us who you think won.”
Danneel regarded both seriously for a moment, sizing first Jensen up then Jared. Finally she raised an eyebrow. “Fine. You want to know who I said? I think Jared definitely has a bigger cock. Sorry Jenny.”
They were surprised when Genevieve shook her head at her girlfriend’s observation. “I don’t know, I say it’s Jensen.”
Everyone broke out into laughter as Danneel playfully slapped Genevieve’s shoulder. “You’re only saying that to stay on his good side. That doesn’t count.”
“Screw you, I’ve said from the beginning that I think Jen has a bigger dick than Jay.”
Jensen and Jared both raised an eyebrow as they met each other’s gazes. “Well, the only thing I have to say,” Jared voiced as he stood up and put money down for his and Jensen’s meal, “is that you’re both horrible friends.”
“And you,” Jensen pointed at Danneel, “Are a bad judge of size.”
Genevieve cheered and jumped up, clapping at the growl that resulted with Danneel. Once Danni had put the money down for her and Gen’s meal she stood up and pouted. “I can’t believe you won.”
“Oh, I didn’t say Gen won,” Jensen corrected his best friend with a grin. “I’m just saying you suck.”
Danneel squared her shoulders back and approached Jared. She licked her lips and playfully clutched his belt buckle in her hand, letting her fingers trail up and down his stomach. “Oh, I can definitely suck,” she said, voice low.
“Uhhh, Jen?” Jared said with a slight hint of panic.
“Yeah,” both Genevieve and Jensen said at the same time. They broke into laughter as Danneel began to snuggle up to Jared.
“Either one of you. Please remove Danneel from my dick.”
“I don’t know,” Jensen teased. “She looks pretty good there.”
“If you ever want it hard again, you will...” Jared didn’t have to finish that statement before Jensen tugged Danneel and pushed her into Genevieve’s waiting arms.
“I don’t care if it’s a bluff, I can’t risk it,” Jensen explained without shame. He was surprised when Genevieve launched herself into Jensen’s arms, wrapping hers around his neck.
“I’ve missed you,” she reiterated with a laugh.
“God,” Jared whined. “Let’s get out of here before you try to turn us completely straight. The babies are going to need a walk.”
“Not my dog,” Genevieve teased as she and Danneel ran ahead. “I don’t have to walk nobody.”
Danneel followed and flashed an apologetic smile. “Too lazy, thanks for breakfast bitches. See you later.”
And with that, Jensen and Jared were alone for the walk back to Jared and Genevieve’s house to gather up the puppies to take them for a long, Sunday walk.
They were never at a loss for things to talk about. Both of them had so many shared interests that there was always a topic they could discuss, not to mention either would gladly listen to the other ramble for as long as they wanted without complaint. But as they were rounding the corner to head to Jensen’s to pick up a few things, he found that he couldn’t follow Jared’s conversation.
“Everything okay?” Jared asked, obviously catching onto Jensen’s distraction.
“Yeah…I mean, no but yeah.” Jensen bit his lip and nervously picked at the pocket of his jeans that were fraying.
“Oh, that wasn’t vaguely concerning,” Jared laughed but it was slightly forced.
Jensen stopped walking and grabbed Jared’s hand tighter. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his nerves.
“Remember that talk we had? Where you admitted that sometimes you get nervous about how I’ll react to things and I said don’t be, just try me out and if it’s something to freak out about we’ll deal with it?”
Jensen nodded.
“So how about you tell me what you’re freaking out about and we’ll deal with it. Obviously it’s not Gen because that seemed to go well…” Jared frowned. “Unless it didn’t and you guys were covering it up…”
“Oh no,” Jensen breathed with a smile. “Everything with Gen was great. It’s just...” Jared nodded, giving him silent encouragement. “So my birthday is in two weeks.”
“I remember. You weren’t sure what the plan was. If you were going to go home for your birthday or the week before or after.”
“Well, my momma wants me to come home. Apparently my granny and papa are going to be there around that time, and Josh and Mack are going to be home and they want to have a big party to celebrate my birthday but also because Josh’s wife is pregnant. The whole family is going to be there…”
Jared waited patiently and Jensen felt his nervousness amplify.
“And my momma wants me to bring you home with me so they can all meet you.”
Jared’s eyes widened before his grin matched their intensity.
“Your momma wants to meet me?”
Jensen nodded. “Officially. She wants me to bring you home when I come home for the weekend. She’s expecting us … well me but you if you want to come, on the Thursday and we would come back on the Sunday.” He held his breath and waited for Jared’s freak out, which he should have known wouldn’t come.
“What do you want?” Jared asked gently. “If it’s too soon for you…”
“It’s not too soon,” Jensen blurted out. He laughed and nervously began walking again, tugging Jared and Ginny with him. Tank yelped and began to run, following his best friend. “It’s not too soon. I want you to meet them. God, I want them to meet you. I just …want you to be okay with it.”
“Well...actually,” Jared said with a sudden tone of nervousness in his own voice. “That brings me to…”
“Oh my god what?”
“Well, if you’re going home for your birthday, that means that you aren’t going home for Easter right?”
Jensen nodded. “Yeah, why?”
“Well…Meggie was talking to my Momma about you and she’s jealous that Meggie’s met you and she hasn’t. And then when she heard I wasn’t going home this summer…”
“You’re not going home this summer?” This was news to Jensen. He saw the blush cover Jared’s face and fell in love with him all over again.
“I was planning on it, but then you mentioned how you were going to intern at the hospital this summer, and that you were staying here…”
“And?”
“I want to be where you are, so I spoke to one of the profs and well he got me a job at one of the accounting firms he has contacts with. It’s just doing grunt IT work but it’s work and I’ll get paid at least, and I can put it on my resume…” Jared nervously scratched the back of his head. He looked up and met Jensen’s eyes. “So I’m staying here. But Momma said she wanted to meet the boy that was so special that I would give up a summer home for.”
“Oh god, you want me to meet Mama Padalecki?”
Jared grinned. “Mama Padalecki wants to meet you. Actually, the whole Padalecki clan wants to meet you.”
Their mouths met in a sweet kiss. Finally Jensen pulled away as he ran his fingers through Jared’s hair and nipped his lips playfully. “I’ll meet yours if you meet mine?”
“God I love you Jensen Ackles. I can’t wait to meet your family.”
“I’m scared shitless to meet yours Jay,” Jensen admitted with a soft laugh.
“Oh Jenny, my momma thinks Chad is bat shit crazy, but she still likes him, so you have nothing to worry about.”
“But you’re not fucking Chad.”
Jared only shook his head. “All the more reason for her to love you.”
