Reccer's notes:Chad labels Jared as gay in an on-air interview even though Jared is straight and has a girlfriend. Then (of course) Jared meets Jensen. This is really well done and very funny.
[Short excerpt]At the Starbucks he always stopped at, Margot behind the counter gave him a wide-eyed look with her face all pale and cleared her throat uncomfortably when she said, “hi Jared.” So yeah, she’d seen the interview. Jared thought it was just better if he didn’t respond to her staring. He made it to his car and to his agent’s office before he was attacked by the media. “Do you have a boyfriend!” “How long have you been a homosexual?” “Mr. Pada-” (They really couldn’t say his name. It wasn’t even a hard name to say.) “How do you feel about gay rights?” “Do you know Ellen?” Jared ignored them and went into the building. Once he was through the doors they were all milling around in circles looking like sharks in chum-filled water just waiting for something tasty to snack on. He stood behind the glass windows and stared at the sudden insane turn his life had taken.
