Summary: It's been many years since Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles fought their way back to be together, after their first attempt at a relationship crashed and burned. Over a twenty year span, they deal with professional successes and troubles as well as personal joys and demons. Their story is one of trials, tribulations, and a testament to enduring love.
Notes: Written for the 2022 Supernatural/J2 Big Bang and as an auction fill for the long-patient mtpw43.
This story is the third and final part to the Pay Phone Verse. The two previous installments are Pay Phone and The Things That We Could Be. Reading them would enhance reading this story, but this is written to be a stand-alone.
Thanks and adoration to dwimpala21 for the stunning new art set! It's gorgeous!

I could never have written, much less finished, this without the steadfast support, endlessly patient ear, and reassuring hand-holding from theatregirl7299. Thank you.
Thanks to my alpha readers theatregirl7299, merenwen76, jerzcaligrl, and kelios who all read various drafts and scenes and gave me their valuable input as well as encouragement.
