Summary:A decade after Supernatural ends, Jared Padalecki is still working in series television. His marriage to Sandy is coming to an amicable end, and he's famous enough that he wants to be out of town before he becomes a tabloid headline.
Jensen Ackles has seen his career progress from small but weighty parts that earned him acclaim to above the title billing. The notoriously private Jensen extends an invitation--by way of a first-class plane ticket--for Jared to hide out at Jensen's mostly empty Paris flat while he films his next movie.
Three months in Paris is enough to tone down the tabloid attention, but Jared returns to LA only to find that he doesn't have everything figured out. They say you can't go home again, but Jared discovers that sometimes that's exactly what you have to do.

The Story Notes
All of this started because someone on my friendslist mentioned desperately wanting a story set at least ten years in the future. I remember there was some waxing poetic on Jensen’s laugh lines, but I do not remember who said it. Clearly, the idea stuck in my brain and didn’t let go.
In case you’re wondering, the nachos totally exist.
