“…I don’t have any news for you.”
“What are they saying though…I mean…did they tell you anything…I need..They have to…shit….”
“S’all right man, I know you must be going crazy down there. Look, all they’ve told me is that they’re still working on him and that he’s alive. Fuckin’ privacy laws, sorry Jensen but they’re not telling me shit.”
“Well I’m not waiting anther 15 hours to hear something. There’s got to be something we can do. Give me the number for the front desk.”
“Ok, I’ll go find out what it is and call you back.”
“Text it to me, I’m in line to board in Miami, so I won’t be able to call until I get to Dallas.”
“Alright man, I’ll see you when you get here.”
The airline employee at the boarding gate called his name over the loud speaker and requested that he return to the desk. Great, now what? As luck would have it, he was taken off standby and able to board a connecting flight to Seattle, then to Vancouver. That cut off 5 hours from his arrival time in Vancouver, he’d have to remember to thank his travel agent next time they talked.
The four hour flight gave him way too much time to think. How had it come to this, where had it all went wrong? Oh who was he kidding, he knew, knew the exact time and place when it had happened. He shuddered at the recollection of the day his whole world began to fall apart. It was all his fault, and he knew it. If anything happened to Jared… No, he was not going to do this. He tried to push out the painful memories and recall the good ones. The flight attendant was up front giving her well rehearsed speech and happily announced the in- flight movie. As he tried to think about all the happy memories he’d made with Jared over the past five years, but the few bad ones kept creeping back into his mind. Like THE day it all went wrong….
March 28, 2010 L.A.
Jared had seemed a little off during the convention once they’d gotten done with photo ops, but Jensen had chalked it up to long shooting hours and the wrap of the series finale for Supernatural. As they headed back to the hotel room to gather their things to leave, it happened.
“Is it true?”
“What Jared that my favorite meal is steak or that I really didn’t rehearse the Eye of the Tiger Scene.” Jensen recapped a few of the more annoying questions from the Q & A session.
“You know what I’m talking about Jensen.”
“Ah, no dude I seriously don’t.”
“ I broke off my engagement for us!”
Shit. Now he knew what Jared was referring to.
“Jared, wait, before you start assuming things…”
“I’ll take that as a yes then.”
“Jay, I know how this looks but….”
“No, there is no “but” Jensen. What the fuck, we promised each other that we were going through with this.”
“I’m sorry.”
“You’re SORRY?” Jared was yelling now, really yelling and Jared NEVER yelled. “You know what Jensen, FUCK YOU.”
“Jared..Please..”
“No, Jensen…just…no.” Jared almost whispered the last part, all of his fight gone out of him.
“I didn’t mean to…”
“Don’t even think of finishing that sentence.” Jensen was cut off by Jared’s new found anger in his
attempt to minimize the situation.
“What part of, ‘Oh so sorry that the last five years of our lives together didn’t mean anything to me because I’m too concerned about what other people think’ did you NOT think would hurt me?”
“Jared, that’s not what this means.”
“Really Jensen, really? Cuz from where I’m standing that pretty much sums it up!”
“You know how much you mean to me Jared.”
“I thought I did, but then again, I thought I knew you too. Thought you would never promise to call off your engagement after WE realized how stupid we were being and then turn around and elope two days before WE were going to announce ourselves to the world!” Jared’s voice was starting to turn into a yell as he paced around the hotel room.
“Jar…” Jensen began, but was cut off by Jared again.
“You know what Jensen, you know the real kicker? I had to find out from a fan. A FUCKING FAN JENSEN!”
“I didn’t think it would get out this soon Jared.” Jared smirked at this confession.
“My. Point. Exactly.”
“Jared, will you just let me explain? I’m beggin you…PLEASE.”
“You know what Jensen, I’ve heard enough from you. I hope you new WIFE live a long a happy life together. You know what they say about relationships built on lies don’t you Jensen?”
And with that Jared had stormed out of their hotel room, refusing to talk him up until two weeks ago…
