Comment fic - J2 - "I'm Yours"
It wasn’t unusual at all for Jared to be up and out of bed well before Jensen, particularly on a day with a late call. It wasn’t even unusual for Jared to putter around in the kitchen after taking care of the dogs, making coffee and creating some kind of concoction for breakfast. But it was unusual for him to sing.
Their circle of friends was very musical, and though Jensen felt comfortable singing solo or as part of the crowd, Jared was more at ease letting others handle the vocals while he played the guitar. Jensen stopped at the entrance to kitchen and leaned against the door frame. Jared was working near the sink, engrossed in what he was doing and singing to himself.
”Listen to the music of the moment people,
dance and sing
We’re all just one big family
And it’s our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved…”
Jensen had to smile at how Jared threw back his head sang, putting his whole heart into it. Something got Jared’s attention, maybe it was the weight of Jensen’s stare; he turned and smiled at Jensen in welcome. But there was something more. Jensen was surprised when Jared continued singing.
So I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I’m sure
As Jared made his way across the kitchen, Jensen was entranced by the power of the words he was singing because the lyrics were reflected in his eyes and on his face. They were not words Jared had written, but by singing them to Jensen, in the privacy of their kitchen, he made them their own. A promise between the two of them.
There’s no need to complicate, our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours.
Jared reached out to Jensen, sneaking his fingers below the hem of his t-shirt and skirting along his waist. And Jared, being Jared, had to tease with the next verse. Jensen could feel Jared grin against his neck even as he kept singing.
D-d-do do you, but do you, d-d-do
But do you want to come on
Scooch on over closer dear
And I will nibble your ear
Jared followed the lyric rather literally, and that was the point where Jensen’s paralysis was broken. Jensen pulled his head away leaving Jared chuckling softly into his neck. Jared’s strong arms had wrapped around him leaving him no space to get away; but Jensen wasn’t thinking of making an escape.
Instead Jensen gently captured Jared’s head against his shoulder with a hand against his neck and sang, “I’m yours.” right back to him.
