Title: As Long as You're Mine Chapter 4/4
Lillian Ackles knew her son and try as hard as he did she could tell that something had changed he seemed happier.
"Do you think he met someone?"
Alan blinked at his wife's question as well as the hint of worry and he understood while they wanted their son to be happy they also hoped that one day he would realize that his feelings for Jared went beyond friendship feelings that were returned by Jared.
"Perhaps he finally acted on his feelings for Jared." Alan suggested. "I doubt that anyone could capture Jensen's attention or his heart the way Jared has." He could see that his words did little to sooth his wife. "Alright, how about we take a trip down there? I have vacation time saved up and we could drop in on them to make sure that everything is going alright."
Alan knew that he made the right suggestion when Lillian's face lit up in a smile and she flung her arms around him and kissed him quickly. "That sounds like a wonderful idea. I knew that I married you for more than just your good looks."

Jensen Ackles was living in a sea of bliss as he woke to the most glorious of sight of Jared curled up in his arms where he belongs, still lost in the land of dreams. Jensen doesn't think he has stopped smiling since he brought Jared home and hadn't that been a sight the next morning when the others had joined -more like crashed- their breakfast.
"Are you sure that I couldn't have convinced you to stay in bed for a little longer?" Jensen growled, his arms wrapped around Jared's waist from behind, pressing his body against Jared's back.
"We need to eat." Jared murmured, a smile on his face.
"I know that but there is something I would much rather be eating out than waffles, even if they do smell so good." Jensen would rather be up in their bed with Jared spread out beneath him but Jared had wanted to make breakfast for everyone and Jensen couldn't say no to him.
"If you are a good boy and eat your breakfast I will reward you," Jared promised turning in Jensen's arms just enough to press a kiss on his lips.
"Jared, dude you've got legs!" Chad could only stare at the man that just yesterday was a merman. "And are those Jensen's boxers?"
Jensen let out a low growl, they hadn't had the time or it hadn't mattered that Jared didn't own any clothing and he rather liked it that Jared was wearing his clothing. "Stop staring at Jared's legs!" Jensen growled, there was no missing the possessive tone in his voice.
Chad stared at Jensen before shaking his head and letting out a chuckle, "Wow! I didn't think it was even possible but somehow you have gotten even more possessive over Jared."
"You haven't seen me possessive yet," Jensen growled. He still didn't like the idea of having to share his Jared with others even if they were his friends.
"Well, if you don't want anyone checking out your boy, you better make sure to get him some clothing. Though I think he could borrow something of Tom's." Mike added as he and Tom came strolling into the kitchen, the smell of food not burning drawing them in.
Tom could only shake his head at his boyfriend, he was just happy that he hadn't poked the bear that is was known as possessive Jensen. "It would be no problem, after all, Jared and I are about the same height, they should fit him." Tom offered Jared a gentle smile he was happy for Jensen that he finally realized that he had more than friendship feelings for Jared.
"Well damn who won the pool?" Was Chris' response when he walked into the kitchen.
"You bet on us getting together?!" Jensen couldn't believe his friends but it did sound like something they would do.
"Hell yeah we did and it looks like it was Jared's smoking hot mom Anahita," Chad announced from where he had moved to and had pulled out a black book that Jensen had never seen before.
"My mom was in on the bet?" Jared wasn't sure how he felt about that or Chad calling her hot.
Chris looked beyond smug as he informed them, "All of your parents were in on the bet."
Jensen was pulled out of his thoughts by the soft sleep filled voice that he loved so much. "What has got you thinking so hard?"
Jensen smiled down as he looked into Jared's eyes. "I was just thinking about our first morning together as a couple." Jensen murmured as he trailed his hands down Jared's body while brushing his scruff against Jared's bare skin, knowing that his lover loved that.
Jared let out a loud moan at the feeling, he loves Jensen scruff he especially loved it when Jensen left beard burn marks on him. "That was a rather an interesting shock." Jared murmured sinking deep into Jensen's arms.
"I had been so scared of how we were going to tell your mother, it helped a little to know that she approved of me." Jensen had been terrified that Jared's mom would be against their relationship.
"And as I told you, you had nothing to worry about." Jared sounded just a little smug and Jensen had to admit that he had a reason to be.
The sun was just sitting over the water when Jared and Jensen approached the tide where Anahita was waiting for them.
"Jensen, there is no one I trust more with my son and his heart than you. I am pleased that my son has found someone to love him as you do." Anahita spoke before either of them could speak.
The two men just stared at her in shock. "And please inform your friends that I will be collecting what they owe me. I do believe that I had the winning date." Anahita musical laugh filled the air at Jared's rather shocked 'Mom!'
"Now all we have to do is tell your parents," Jared added.
"I think my parents know that something is up. I can't hide my happiness at having you in my life as my lover and partner. I just don't want to tell them over the phone. I want to tell them in person. I want to have you by my side as I tell them I plan on spending the rest of my life with the man who has been a big part of it already." Jensen whispered as he pressed his lips against Jared's.
Jared sank into the kiss as he clung to Jensen and returned the kiss, pouring all the love he felt for Jensen into it. Telling Jensen's parents could wait, he rather enjoy his time with his mate.
+*****+
Jensen was enjoying the peace with Jared curled up against his side, it was nice since the rest of their housemates were gone for the day. It was nice, just the two of them, so when the doorbell rang Jensen was convinced that he was justified in growling at his alone time with Jared being disturbed.
Jared smiled, he found Jensen's grumbling utterly adorable and couldn't help but press a kiss against the side of Jensen's mouth as he moved to go answer the door only to find himself still pinned to Jensen's side. "You know they are not going away. We will have to answer it soon." Jared pointed out.
"I know, but it would be nice," Jensen grumbled as he reluctantly let go of Jared and climbed to his feet to answer the door. "Seriously, why is everyone ruining my alone time with Jared?" Jensen grumbled under his breath as he stalked towards the door.
Jared really hoped that it wasn't some poor salesperson who suffered his mate's wrath.
"Mom! Dad! What are you two doing here?" The very last people that Jensen expected to find standing at his doorstep was his parents.
"Hello son, are you going to invite us in?" Alan asked, smiling at his son who he had heard grumbling as he approached the door.
Lillian Ackles stood behind her husband studying her son who she couldn't deny that she had never seen happier. She wanted her son happy, she also wanted Jared happy who she knew loved her son with all his heart.
All her fears faded though as Jared appeared behind Jensen and Jensen didn't hesitate to link hands with him, "Oh thank goodness, you finally seen the light, son. I had a whole lecture prepared for you if you had ended up with anyone else but Jared."
Jensen wasn't sure how he should feel about his mom's declaration, it didn't help that his dad was nodding from his spot beside Lillian. "She did, she even practiced it on the ride down," Alan confirmed.
Jensen felt a surge of joy that his parents loved Jared so much. "So you are okay that Jared and I are together?"
"Of course son, we only want you to find someone who will love you and it is clear that Jared is that person. And you are that person who loves Jared the way he deserves to be loved." Alan reached out and placed a hand on Jensen's and Jared's shoulders. "I am happy to say welcome to the family, Jared."
"Oh, I can't wait to start planning your wedding." Lillian gushed.
"Mom!" Jensen couldn't believe his mom she could at least a little while.
"Oh hush you. I have been planning this for years." Lillian announced as she passed the two men to enter the house with a rather amused Alan following after her.
"Sorry," Jensen whispered to Jared.
Jared shook his head a beaming smile on his face. "I don't mind, I love your parents and I am so happy to hear that they are happy for us. And someday I do want to marry you."
"You do?"
Jared stroked Jensen's face. "Yes, in the eyes of my people we are already bonded to one another we have pleaded ourselves to each other, it is only fair we do it in your people's customs."
And a few months later they did just that, standing on the beach just as dusk appeared over the sky, Jensen and Jared exchanged their vows in front of their family and friends forever binding their souls to one another.
"Do you think he met someone?"
Alan blinked at his wife's question as well as the hint of worry and he understood while they wanted their son to be happy they also hoped that one day he would realize that his feelings for Jared went beyond friendship feelings that were returned by Jared.
