#oh there was a random bit in a dream where jensen ackles was wearing a very tight short skirt. just entirely without any context or anything

[running-in-the-dark]

damn. I woke up around 13:00, was happy it was so early (for me) and felt really motivated to get some cleaning done. just... maybe a couple more minutes. I'll set an alarm, it'll be fine.

I think we all know where this is going. 😭

it's 17:30 and I'm so annoyed now.

[you-cant-spell-subtext-without]

Sigh. It’s quiet today, so I guess it’s about time to talk about 12x06: Celebrating the Life of Asa Fox.  

This is an episode without Cas, so clearly it revolves entirely around Cas (I'm kidding, but only a little bit).  It’s also a bottle episode and a meta writer’s wet dream, so excuse me while I nerd out - this is a long one to unpack, and I have spent too much time doing it for you.  That’s ok because, as Sam says:

DIVE IN AFTER THE CUT BUDDIES!

The Asa montage is where we start.

Asa is a Dean mirror. The parallels are pretty clear - he’s a scruffy rough around the edges hunter, Mary is the reason he got into hunting, he wears a ton of flannel, etc.  If you remain unsure, the writers throw this in at the very beginning in the montage of Asa’s life as a hunter So That You Know:

Bucky: Hey, you know they make new cars, right? Asa: I don’t want a new car. This is my lucky car. 

***Canadian!Dean confirmed.

Shaine Jones may also be the Canadian Jensen Ackles.

I don’t make the rules ok?

Back in the US, the boys surprise Jody with a visit. 

In case you forgot the episode prior to this one:

Side note: domestic Jody gives me life. 

We’re clearly supposed to see how Jody is a mom figure for the boys, and it feels nice for them to have that, especially since Mary is Taking Some Space.  Their entire dynamic warms even my cold black soul.

[romantic scene of a couple silhouetted against a sunset while sweeping music plays on Jody’s TV. The couple kisses.] 

DEAN

[his mouth full of pizza] Jody, you watching some kind of chick flick here?

JODY

Well, Dean. I’m a chick. 

Kim Rhodes YOU ARE A DELIGHT.  A side note - I know this exchange is supposed to be funny, but I feel sad for Dean (who clearly is a rom com chick).  This is a perfect example of Dean struggling to present some fabricated image of heteronormative masculinity that’s not the heart of who he actually is.  His surprise that a “badass sheriff chick” can also enjoy rom coms makes me fucking upset.  

ALSO:

Anyway, Asa has passed on and the boys tag along with Jody to the wake in support.  

SAM

Yeah, no, Jody. We… we know you’ll be fine, but… you know, we never go to hunter gatherings, outside of bars. Dad always said they were trouble, so…

DEAN

Yes, you’d be doing us a favor if you let us tag along.

***more receipts that John Winchester was an isolating abuser.  They could have at least had a normal HUNTER life and friends who hunted.

SAM  

That is a big house. [Music continues playing, coming from inside the house now]

***We now establish one “theme” of the episode.

JODY

Family home. Asa was just a guy. 

AKA pretty brutal implication that Asa didn’t have a family of his own.

Speaking of implications:

[Jody removes her coat and the three of them begin mingling. Dean finds his way to the kitchen and a cooler full of beer] DEAN

No label. Well, that’s a red flag. 

****LOL WHAT THE FUCK IS THE REASON****

....

....

....

GIRL SEND HELP

Enter Bucky, who is actually (SPOILER!) the villain of the episode.

Do all hunters just walk around with this manly flannel/weird symbolic necklace combo?  Looking at you Bucky and Dean.  

Dean is surprised to find that people know who he is:

But doesn’t seem to have an issue with it until -

***Someone who just bragged the entire five hour car ride about killing Hitler shouldn’t be this concerned about what people are saying about him right? 

Or is he thinking it may involve something he isn’t comfortable sharing - since apparently there are things Dean doesn’t feel comfortable sharing as established by the prior couch conversation with Jody?  Hmmmmmm...

***Compare the expressions.  The “you’ve died four times” response is the same as the smug/proud “I killed Hitler” face.  The reaction to the “stories” is the “hey this is my personal business” reaction Dean had to Sam’s Japanese erotica art form comment. He is thinking specifically about something personal.

I wonder what it could be.

I don’t think any one had to teach Max Banes the art of seduction, but also thank you.

Also, manifesting Dean being raised by Max and Alicia’s Cool Witch Mom instead of John Trash Winchester.  Because that’s what we’re supposed to think here, correct?  Two sibling hunters usually present a brother mirror.

Worth noting Sam’s surprise that witches can also be hunters.  The John Winchester Bigotry Brain Rot runs deep.  (GOD the Sam-witch thing would have driven him crazy I LIVE FOR THAT).

Dean escapes to Asa’s office/room and proceeds to go through his things.

[Dean is in Asa’s office and finds an angel blade mounted on blue velvet inside an ornate glass-lidded box. He opens it, reaches in and pulls out the angel blade, comfortably spinning it in his hand when Sam walks in.]

SAM

Hey.

DEAN

Oh, hi. This is a real Angel Blade. I mean, this guy was legit. 

***that’s weird, why does Canadian!Dean have an angel blade?  We haven’t heard anything about angels yet, and it wasn’t in the opening montage.  Hmmmmmm, I say. Hmmmmmmm...

***Sam is also concerned about The Stories They Tell 

This one particularly:

Honestly I don’t know why he’s THAT surprised that people know he was possessed by Lucifer?  Didn’t he start like multiple apocalypses?  That’s something people tend to be in the know about. Anyhoo.

DEAN

Yeah. Apparently we’re a little bit legendary. 

SAM 

Yeah, but, I mean, so was Asa. Then a hunt went bad, and he ended up hanging from a tree, alone in the woods.

DEAN

He died on the job. No better way to go. 

SAM

You really believe that? 

DEAN

Yeah. What, you don’t? I mean, come on, Sam, it's not like we're in the “live till you're 90, die in your sleep” business. This? [Dean points at Asa’s hunting wall] This only ends one way. 

***Insert deep internal screaming about 15x20 here***

It’s Jody’s turn to be uncomfortable as we find out she and Asa were more than just friends and everyone knew it and Said Things About It and Told Stories About It.

HMMMMMMM...

Dean is surprised that Jody not only enjoys rom coms, but ruggedly hot men. Another thing they have in common.

As Dean comes to terms with the idea that Jody can be a mother figure and also a human person with a life and her own feelings and needs and thoughts, enter the person whom said lesson is actually about:

This is a Kim Rhodes Facial Expression stan account now.

So cute how Jody knows immediately that Dean is not okay.  Time to reach:

JODY

Huh. Is that why you spent the entire ride up here telling me in extreme, excruciating detail how you killed Hitler, but, uh, you neglected to mention the fact that your mom is back from the dead? 

***look, it’s another Dean doesn’t like others knowing personal information parallel!***

DEAN 

Yeah, no big deal. 

JODY

That’s a lie.

DEAN

JODY …

JODY

Look, maybe this isn't my place, and this is epic stuff, but

JODY

Yeah. Because what if I’ve changed. What if they changed? What if it just didn’t work out the way I wanted?  If you wanna talk about anything

***Killing Hitler used yet again to show Dean doesn’t care about oversharing hunting stories, but he doesn’t like for people to know personal ones.  Also, Jody mentions her son and her husband.  Her family and her romantic partner.  

Dean wasn’t just reunited with Mary this season. He was also reunited with Cas, after saying goodbye to him at the end of Season 11 when he headed to what he thought was going to be his death as the Amara-bomb.

So, this conversation isn't just about Mary (the “anything”).  It’s also about Cas (the”...absolutely anything”).

Mary chats with Mama Fox and more Points Are Made about hunters not getting to have a “normal life” or family:

MARY

I saved his life. 

LORRAINE

[scoffing] What am I supposed to say to that? After you, Asa got so… Hunting was his whole life. He never married. Never had a family, kids. And now… enjoy the wake. 

***sending Mary on a guilt spiral about Asa (mirroring her other guilt spiral about hunting as a life for her own sons)

Speaking of mirrors:

BUCKY

And Asa loved that Jeep. Fuses were shorted, fuel line was busted. Ah, he didn’t care. He’d just roll up his sleeves, he’d get right to work. 

Time to learn about today’s Big Bad.

BUCKY

Jael. He’s a crossroads demon. And he hangs people. It’s his thing. Snaps their neck, slits their throat. He’s a real piece of work. 

***Wait a second.  Jael is a demon?  Don’t...angel’s names usually end in “el” in SPNverse?

Samandriel.

Uriel.

Gabriel.

Raphael.

Gadreel.

Castiel.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Anyways the demon [questionable] killed Asa and now everyone  is trapped and also In Grave Danger.  

BUCKY

Exactly. Right, so five years later, Jael– he came back, and he came for Asa. 

JODY

How so? 

BUCKY

Asa was seeing this woman, right? She had a kid. 

LORRAINE

Marlene. 

BUCKY

Yeah, Marlene. Jael got into her. It didn’t matter that he was killing people, he wanted Asa to know it was personal. He gets off on it. 

***that’s so weird, didn’t someone else in the show start seeing a woman with a kid - 

what a sexy little coincidence.

oh and didnt  a supernatural being come back right around that time too - 

HMMMMMMMM.  No killing though.  That’s the difference between angels and demons, I guess.

(meanwhile Dean has been drinking alone outside - as he does, and is realizing he can’t get back in)

HI QUEEN

Also, this immediately took me to 

this show isn’t fair.

****sob break****

Jael Posession 1:

So curious how there are two siblings and then one gets possessed by something Satanic and the other one is good at seducing men.

SO FUCKING CURIOUS.

Jael Possession 2:

Elvis. Random.  Though he was the guy who brought up the Stories Sam Was Surprised Were Circulating -

He was also oddly interested in it.  Methinks Elvis thoroughly enjoyed the Jael possession.

Bilie gets Dean back in the house.  The words “one-time deal” are said a lot of times.

BONUS: Jensen why are you so pretty:

The hunters get to work, and I live for Max Bane’s pentagram aesthetic.

MAX

I like a Fifth Pentacle of Mars. It’s got more character. 

***TBH, same.

Jael possession 3:

****Kim Rhodes is even better when she is playing evil.

JODY/JAEL:

I had so hoped you’d kill your mom. Wouldn’t that be a riot? 

[Mary draws the angel blade and charges at Jody. She cuts Jody’s arm before Sam wrestles her away.] 

SAM

No! Mom!

MARY

What are you doing?! She’s a demon. We kill demons. 

******WOOF MARY - I REPEAT TO YOU THAT THE JOHN TRASH WINCHESTER BRAIN ROT RUNS DEEP.

Also did you immediately flash back to this with me?

Gets me thinking that Dean’s feelings for Cas are made twice as complicated by the fact that he is also a supernatural creature.  Another Reason Why John Winchester Would Disapprove.

****Just as he would Disapprove of Sam Being Possessed By the Devil and all that (never forget he told Dean to kill him because of the whole made unclean by demon blood thing). 

Right on cue:

JODY/JAEL

Oh, I have heard so many stories about you Winchesters. And I desperately want the Lucifer thing to be true.  

***Stories again. Jael proceeds to go into Stories That Are Dark Personal Shameful Secrets:

JAEL

As for the rest of you, I have been inside your heads. I know all about you. For example, the twins. Too frightened to tell anyone that they actually came to say goodbye to their daddy. Or the grieving mother who hated the fact that her son was a hunter so much she’d hide his gear, she’d sabotage his Jeep, anything to keep him from hunting. Not that it worked. Could’ve tried harder, huh? 

[She gestures at her own face] And this meatsuit you all seem to care so much about. She actually fantasized about a life with Asa. Can you believe that? Like that worthless man– 

***HMMMMMMMMM

[Bucky gets off the floor and sneaks up behind Jody/Jael] 

BUCKY 

Shut your filthy mouth. 

[Jody/Jael grabs Bucky by the neck and forces him to his knees] 

JODY/JAEL

And you. Bucky. Brave, brave Bucky. I was there that night. Tell these nice, stupid people what you did. Tell them what you took from me. Asa was mine. 

***Excuse me? THIS IS GETTING VERY...subtextual.  A dark timeline supernatural being/hunter relationship [ending badly because demons only know how to take, consume and possess]? ...Asael?  CURIOUS. 

They chant the exorcism, a different hunter doing each iteration (beautifully done) 

and send Jael back to hell, but not before Bucky shares his Shameful Story - he’s the one who killed Asa.

Elaboration:

BUCKY

Asa, he was just all– he was just always so stubborn. Look, we were in the woods. [We see the scene play out as Bucky describes it] Jael, he… he was taunting him. Asa wanted to chase him, but he didn’t have the angel blade. I said, “Let’s go back.” He called me a coward, and he shoved me, so I shoved him back, and he fell. He hit his head. Asa? I didn’t mean to do it. But it was a mistake. Asa. Asa? An accident. I’m sorry. I didn’t know what to do. Asa hated that damn demon so much that I just…

DEAN

Oh, you thought people would buy that Jael killed him? So you hung your best friend to cover your own ass. 

BUCKY

What are you gonna do to me? 

ALICIA:

Tell everyone, every hunter we meet. They’re gonna know your name, Bucky. Know what you did. 

MAX

You like stories. This is the story everyone’s gonna tell about you. Forever. 

***Shameful Stories that Define You, what a theme.  Also, definitely a supernatural being potentially having some subtextual feelings for Canadian!Dean.  Hmmm.

***Funeral pyre and side discussion about how Asa did have a family, and children, and a potential supernatural sidepiece.

In conclusion, Supernatural is a love story.  Thank you for watching this dark timeline/Canadian dub.  You’re dismissed for the day.  Go eat bacon.

Knock, Knock. Part 10.

Series Summary: You are a really good friend of the Padaleckis. Your apartment gets infested with all kinds of problems, so you have to move in with your friends for a couples of days. Little did you know who you would run into while staying there.

Chapter Summary: The Ex talk, and let’s drink right?

Pairing: (single) Jensen x Reader

Warnings: Cussing, Fluff.

Word Count: 3283

Part 10:

Once everything was in order, you both sat down at the table, and dug into the home cooked meal.

You had both finished your meal, and were just talking about random things.

“How can you wear that sweatshirt here? You do realize you’re in enemy territory, right?” Jensen asked leaning on the table.

“Hey! I was an Oklahoman before I was ever a Texan ok. I have to represent.” You said pulling your sweatshirt to see the letters better.

“Not if I have anything to say about it.” He joked.

“Oh yeah, and what do you have to say about it?”

“Not sure yet. I’ll get back to you with a witty comment when it comes to me.” He winked.

You both laughed, and then as it died down each of you maintained eye contact that was calming to you both, and not awkward in the slightest. After what felt like forever, you cleared your throat, and started picking at the leftover food on your plate. Jensen never broke he gaze though.

“So, I guess you are wondering what that whole thing in there was...” You stated. He didn’t respond and instead just kept an interested stare on you. “Also probably what has caused me to be beating my hands to a pulp for the past week too.” You continued.

“You don’t have to share if you don’t want to.” Jensen said. “Whatever you want to say though, I’m listening fully.” He said grabbing your hand and holding it sincerely.

You looked at the physical contact and looked up to see his genuine and trustworthy green eyes. You grinned and squeezed his hand before you both pulled back and got comfortable. You leaned back in your chair and brought a knee up to your chest while the other hung off the chair.

He crossed his arms on the table and leaned forward, ready for whatever you were about to throw his way. He was a little nervous that the guy that was just on the phone had hurt you at some point, and had to remind himself that he needed to listen to the story before he punched the man into next year.

“Ok, so basically the guy we just had a screaming match with on the phone was my ex… Ex Fiancé if you want to get specific.” You paused waiting for a reaction but only got a look of interest and a face that said ‘continue’.

“To sum it all up. We dated for 2 years, and then got engaged. We were engaged for only 3 months when I came home to our shared apartment one day after forgetting my wallet, to find him with another woman.” You paused and gave a strained chuckle. “He wasn’t even trying to be sneaky about it. He was right in the middle of the living room in all his glory with some chick on top of him. Don’t get me started about the girl either. She looked at me like I was interrupting something, not like she was in the wrong at all.” You took a breath. “Anyway, I got furious and stomped off to our room to gather as much as I could. Then on my way out he tried to stop me and made stupid excuses.”

“Did he touch you?” Jensen said getting defensive of you.

“Ha, yeah he tried. He grabbed my arm to slow me down, but… Let’s just say he met the same fate you did when you surprised me earlier.”

“You punched him?” he said impressed with a pull of the corner of his lip.

“Yeah, pretty good too. He wasn’t as lucky as you with the damage.” You tapped your nose. “Broke it pretty bad.”

Jensen chuckled and leaned back in his seat with his arms crossed. “Well can’t say he didn’t deserve it. Glad you did it so I wouldn’t have too.” He winked. “Can’t promise I won’t in the future though.”

“By all means if you ever see the dick, you’re more than welcome to make a move.” You laughed out.

He smiled, and you continued your story.

“Long story short, I left and gathered my things when he wasn’t there, and stayed with Gen until I found that rinky dink apartment complex that ended up getting shut down. Then I moved back with Gen and Jared because they are angels sent from heaven, and…” you let out a sigh smiled. “Well, life brought me here thankfully.”

“You’re happy living here?” he said hoping for a good answer.

“Are you kidding? This house is amazing first off, it’s close to work, and well not to brag, but my roommate is pretty awesome as well.” You winked.

He laughed loudly, and it brought a big smile to your face.

“Good to know you aren’t annoyed by me yet.”

“How could I? You have literally lived here with me a total of 14 hours at the most.” You giggled.

“Thanks for sharing with me Y/N.” Jensen said.

“The fact you aren’t annoying?” you said still laughing.

“No,” he chuckled and then looked up to you. “For your story. I’m glad I know now so I can look out for you.”

“Thanks for keeping an eye on me Jensen, but don’t think I won’t do the same.” You said getting up and grabbing the plates, he followed suit. “Don’t think you’re off the hook either, you have to tell me your deepest darkest secrets too.” You joked, but didn’t see his face fall slightly before he fixed it before you could see the change.

You started walking to the sink to do the dishes when you were stopped by Jensen running in front of you.

“No, no. Let me do this. You go get changed.” He said taking the plates out of your hands.

“You don’t like my outfit?” you joked with sass in your voice.

“What? NO! I love this look.” He looked you up and down which brought a blush to your face. “Really I do.” He winked. “But I think we should go out for a drink tonight. You know with everything that’s happened the past 5 hours, I think we both need it.”

“It’s only 3 Jensen. You want to go day drinking?” you asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Shoot, I thought it was later.” He said looking at the clock. “Ok, how about this? I do the dishes, and you show me whatever you changed around here, we watch a movie, then we call Gen and Jared to see if they want to join us around 6:30 for drinks.”

“Well, you got this all mapped out don’t you?”

“Is that a yes?”

You paused acting like you were giving it a second thought. He looked at you nervously.

“You got a date then. I’m going to go do my hair to get that out of the way while you do the dishes, and then we can watch a movie.” You started walking away, but turned around quickly. “I’m picking the movie though.” You said pointing at him as you walked backwards.

He let out a belly laugh, and smile wide.

“Ok, but no chick flicks.” He said nodding and going to the sink.

“Whatever you say Dean Winchester.” You said walking away with a wave of your hand.

He chuckled watching you walk away until you were up the stairs and out of view.

What was he going to do about you?

You had managed to curl your hair nice and loosely, and headed down to the living room for your movie with Jensen once you were done. As you were doing your hair, you thought of a couple of movies, and had a few in mind.

Jensen was already laid out on the couch with his arm thrown over the back and legs propped on the coffee table. He had a couple of beers, one you were assuming was for you, and a bowl of popcorn sitting on the table by his feet..

“Hmm, popcorn. My favorite.” You said plopping down next to him, and falling in the cushion and bumping his leg.

He just laughed and grabbed the remote.

“Yeah, I saw some bags in the pantry, but I don’t remember buying this kind so I’m not sure if it’s any good.” He said turning on the apple tv.

“It’s my favorite kind. I bought a bunch, cause a lot of times I forget to each dinner or lunch and just make a bag. Did you try some?” you said grabbing the bowl and eating some.

“Not yet. And you eat popcorn for meals?” he said quirking an eyebrow your direction.

“Um, yeah! I can eat popcorn all the time. It’s my favorite snack… and meal.” You added with a wink.

He shook his head with a smile, and looked back at the TV.

“Ok, did you decide on the movie?”

“Yes. What’s that one movie, where she’s like a writer for a magazine and has to make this guy fall out of love with her, and has to make her fall in love with him?” you said testing him.

“How to lose a guy in 10 days’?” he said casually.

“I KNEW IT! You do know chick flicks!” you said jumping from your spot, and pointing a finger at him.

“What?! No!! No I don’t!” he said in defense.

“Don’t try to hide it now Ackles. The secrets out.” You said going back to your spot all smug.

“No! No! That’s not fair…”

“It’s all good Jens. It’s cute when you get all flustered.” You said not breaking your stare from the TV.

Jensen looked your way taken aback from your comment. You thought he was cute? What else did you think of him? Could you be feeling the same way about him? Did he have a chance? Was this too much to be thinking over one small comment?

He was broken away from his train of thought when he noticed you pointing, and saying something about the TV.

“That sound good?” you asked.

“What? Does what sound good?”

“Spiderman: Homecoming? You up for a Marvel movie?”

“You a marvel girl?”

“With all my heart!”

“Really? Didn’t peg you for that kind of chick.”

“I thought we went over this at the party. There’s a lot you don’t know about me. Honestly, I’m a dream ‘chick’.” You said sarcastically.

You were really starting to look like a dream chick in Jensen’s eyes. You were only speaking more truth into it the more he learned about your likes and dislikes, and your personality.

“So Spiderman?”

“Sounds good to me.” He said clicking on it and starting the movie.

As the movie went by, you kept bringing up little behind the scenes knowledge, and how it related to the comics and all. Jensen was impressed with how much you knew. Most girls would say they loved these movies and force themselves through it just to impress him, but you actually had a love for it. It wasn’t fake in the least bit.

He kept catching himself looking over to you every other scene, and getting lost in… well, you. The way you were lounged back in the couch when it was a calm scene. Then sitting straight up with your knees to your chest when it was an action scene. Don’t even get him started on the laughs you let out when they said a quick joke or sassy comment. It brought a huge smile to his face to see you light up. The way your Y/H/C hair was laying along your shoulders, and would shift when you looked at him to tell him something. The way your Y/E/C eyes lit up when you were captivated by the scene playing in front of you. If he wasn’t careful, and if he didn’t do something to keep him away from you soon… He was in trouble. Hell, he already was.

Jensen wasn’t the only one who was picking up on the small things that were going on too though. Every time you broke away from the screen you would look over to see him involved in the movie. You also saw how he looked at you when you were telling him all the little facts you found about the movie. His eyes were captivating. They held complete intrigue in them. He was actually listening, and interested in what you were saying. You saw the bits of freckles scattered across his face and fell in love with each one. You wanted to just touch each and everyone of them. You could feel his eyes on you every once in a while when he thought your full attention was on the movie. Was he staring at you? What was he looking at? What was so interesting about you? You were just another girl. He couldn’t be interested… could he? Nah, he could date the hottest movie star in Hollywood if he wanted. Why would he go for some elementary school guidance counselor?

The movie ended and Jensen was looking at you when you quickly turned to catch him in the act.

“I could tell you were watching me half of the movie. Did I have something on my face this whole time?” you said wiping around your mouth and trying to feel for something out of place.

He chuckled and grabbed the remote to turn off the Tv.

“No, you just…”

“What?” you said with a tilt of your head and a smile.

“You just looked extremely interest the whole time. I’ve never seen a girl this captivated in a superhero movie.”

“Well, you haven’t been with the right girls then. Only the right women know what the deal is.” You said getting up and picking up the empty beer bottles and popcorn bowl. “I texted Gen, and she said the the boys are staying with their grandparents for tonight so her and Jared can have a night together. But!” you said turning around. “They would love to join us for some drinks. She is already planning on taking an Uber so her or Jared don’t have to drive.”

“Wow, they must really want to get out.” He said getting up and stretching.

“Guess so. I’ll take care of these, then we can get dressed and head that way. Sound like a plan?”

“Perfect. I’ll go change and meet you down here.”

“Yes, sir!”

You put the bottles in recycling, and the popcorn bowl in the sink then headed up to your room to change.

What look where you going for? Just a hang out sesh with your friends, so Jeans, T-shirt, and jacket? Or looking good, and need to get my mind off of a certain guy, cute/hot attire?

Screw it. Let’s look good tonight!

Tonight was warmer than it had been, so a light jacket would do. You decided on a cute black lacy top that you had bought a while back, but hadn’t got around to wearing yet. You paired it with some nice jeans, and a tan cardigan that was super warm, but you could take off to show off the tank easily. You decided to wear some short heels to class up the outfit, and grabbed your purse off your desk.

You gave yourself one more look in your mirror.

“Ok, sexy thing. We get it you can dress up too. Now don’t go killing any boys with that look tonight.” You winked to yourself. Can’t leave without a little pep talk am I right?

Before you left your room you stopped yourself.

“Wait. Lipstick.”

You turned back to your vanity/ desk and started going through your multiple lipsticks. After finally deciding to go with a red lip, you began to apply it.

Jensen must have just finished too because you heard a light knock at your door.

“Come in!” you said still putting the lipstick on.

“Hey, sorry! I was walking by, and thought I would check to see if you were almost done-” he said looking down before seeing you at the desk.

You looked flawless. Like literally. Did you have any flaws? He wasn’t seeing any.

“Yes! I just finished my last touch.” You said turning and standing grabbing your cardigan and throwing it over your shoulder. “How do I look?” you said doing a little spin.

“You look… You-“ he couldn’t get it out.

“Is it too much? Shoot. I knew I shouldn’t have dressed up so much.” You said sensing his hesitancy.

“NO!” he nearly shouted causing you to go raise and eyebrow. “I mean. No. You look fine. You look… really good. It’s perfect. You’re perfect.” He let the last part slip out catching your face change. Before you could say anything he quickly recovered. “I’m going to go get the car started. I’ll meet you downstairs.” He raced out of your room, and you heard him run down the stairs.

“Did he just call me perfect?” You started thinking about it then your phone buzzing snapped you out of your trance. “Right. Drinks. With friends.” You shook your head, and a small smile made its way onto your face as you closed your door behind you. “Perfect huh? Well, if a man that looks like that tells you that, it really boosts your confidence.” You said before heading down the stairway.

The car ride there was awkward at the beginning, but once a song Jensen and you both liked came on the tension was gone. He parked the car, and you both made your way into the bar.

Right before entering the bar you got a text from Gen, but could barely read it. Either she was drunk texting or she was typing in a hurry because it was a jumble of letters.

Gen: Chagng brz. Ettanks izz her.

“What the hell?” you said looking at your phone as Jensen opened the door.

“What?” Jensen said following you into the bar.

“Not sure. Gen texted, but I have no clue what it says. They must have pre-gamed.” You laughed looking up, and searching the bar as you took off your cardigan.

“There’s Jared in that booth.” Jensen said and you both made your way towards him.

Before you could get halfway there, you heart sank to the bottom of your stomach.

“This can’t be happening.” You said stopping in your tracks, and gripping your phone tightly.

“Hey Jar!” Jensen said waving and getting closer to Jared, but noticing you weren’t close behind. He stopped and turned to see your eyes wide, and your whole body tensed toward the bar. He followed your gaze, but wasn’t sure what he was supposed to be looking at.

He walked up to you, and gently placed a hand on your forearm feeling it tense more. You didn’t break your concentration, and he was watching your face to try to grab your attention.

“Y/N. You good? You’re freaking me out sweetheart. What’s going on?”

“Eth-Ethan.” You stuttered out as Jensen saw Gen running to you sloppily out of the corner of his eye. Jared close behind.

“Who’s Ethan?” Jensen asked you but then turned to Gen who had the same worried look as him on her face.

A man was now making his way toward your group, and Jensen noticed you tense even more. If that was possible.

“Who the hell is Ethan?” Jensen said getting closer to you in a protective way, and staring down the man walking to you.

You still hadn’t moved other than to stiffen at this guy’s presence.

“Ethan’s her asshole of an Ex.” Gen said looking at the same man coming your direction, everyone was now staring at.

A friend like you

Request for the wonderful @fanboyswhereare-you - Seb and the reader are friends and he takes her to meet her celeb crush (Jensen Ackles). I really hope you like it!

Sebastian Stan, Jensen Ackles and the reader/you. Happy ending (you all know me so well). Feedback is always welcome and if you have a one shot request, storyline/character/real person or numbers request then please read here. Thanks for the request and enjoy!  My Masterlist is here. :)

You call round to his apartment hoping in the back of your head that he has forgotten your birthday. You already know your parents, family and friends will have a huge birthday party for you but you just hope Seb hasn’t went to too much bother since he has only got back from filming for several months.

Knocking on the door he answers in nothing but his loose jogging bottoms. His toned, and tired looking, body on full display which only causes you to roll your eyes. “I’m guessing the flight last night got delayed..”

You see him nod and rub his eyes as he takes in your awful state. “And I’m guessing the date last night didn't go too well..”

“Shut up Seb! It went fine.” You reply, walking into his kitchen only to find the cupboards empty. “Did you not even pick yourself up anything to eat for breakfast on your way home from the airport last night?”

“No I was kind of a bit tired. It was a twelve hour flight and I had only slept for a few hours before it.”

Smiling up at him you take his hand in yours and lead him to the bedroom. “I know you don't sleep well on planes so get changed and don't give me any excuses. I’m taking you for breakfast.” You say, closing the door behind you and still praying that he has forgotten your birthday. You knew he was stressed with work and you didn't want him having to stress even more over buying you something too.

An hour later. An hour! He finally comes shuffling into the living room with decent looking clothes on. Well jeans, a plain white top and his favourite trainers could be the closest Seb was to decent right now and he had actually combed his hair.. which was a surprise to you since you had hardly ever seen him comb it for breakfast. You knew he loved his hair but he would mostly just run his fingers through it. God his hair annoyed you with how perfect it sat all the time while your own was a Royal mess half the time even after styling.

“You ready to go Seb?”

You walk towards the door only to be stopped by a groan leaving Seb’s lips. "Damn he’s running late.”

Turning to face him you frown when you spot him looking down at his phone like all belonging to him is dead. “What’s wrong?”

You see his eyes flick between you and the phone before he shakes his head and leads you out the door. “Nothing. I was meant to be meeting a friend tonight but he’s running late so it may not happen.”

“That’s a shame.” You reply, linking your arm with his as you both make your way towards the coffee shop at the corner of the block. “I hope he knows he’s missing out on spending time with a hot hunk like you.”

“Oh he totally is missing out.” You hear Seb sarcastically reply and you both burst out laughing.

After a few minutes of silence you decide to speak first when you arrive at the coffee shop and order your food and drinks. “Where were you planning on going with him?”

“Nowhere special, maybe just a bar or something.”

“Men..” You watch Seb look at his phone every few seconds which starts to make you uncomfortable. “Do I have to be your mother today? Put the phone away.” You say causing Seb to raise his eyebrows at you.

“You’ll make a brilliant parent one day with that tone doll.” He says and you can see the mischievous glint in his eyes as he relents and puts his phone into his pocket.

“See? That wasn't too hard.” You say, smiling across the table at Seb before looking at the waitress who has just arrived with yours and Seb’s fry ups, hot chocolate and coffee. “Thanks.”

You both eat in silence with the exception of you both casually singing a few lines of songs coming from the radio playing in the corner of the coffee shop.

“I have a present for you later.” You suddenly hear Seb say and you whip your eyes up to meet his tired steel blue ones.

“What for?”

You both laugh as you try, and fail, to feign innocence. “Oh come on! You didn't think I’d forget my best friends birthday?”

“Damn! What do you have planned?” You ask, putting down your money for breakfast and allowing Seb to walk you home.

“You’ll see.” And with that said you both walk back home in silence again.

You loved your friendship with Seb. You loved how you could go days without speaking then suddenly come back together and speak for hours without taking a breath or how, like now, you could talk about a random thing for a few minutes then have this comfortable silence in between conversations. It just felt so natural and you were more than thankful that he was your best friend even though sometimes he could be a pain in the backside.. like now.

“Your going to have to at least tell me what to dress up in for this surprise..” You whisper as you stand in front of your apartment building.

“Just whatever you women like to wear.”

“Are you for real?” You exclaim, throwing your hands up in the air. “Us women like to wear all sorts of things so be more specific.”

“Fine! That black jumpsuit you had on for my going away to film party.. wear that. It really highlighted your curves.”

“Now you just sound gay Seb..”

“And what’s wrong with that?” He says as you smile up at him.

“Nothing wrong with it. I have many gay friends and I love them. It’s just that for a straight man like you it’s a bit odd that your so good at giving advice to me on what to wear to highlight my curves.”

“I’ll see you later doll. Be ready for seven!” He shouts before he disappears into the crowd.

That night you wait outside your apartment building at seven on the dot but you cant see Seb. Maybe he got held up. He was tired so he could have fallen asleep. Just as your about to back inside you hear a car horn and someone calling your name. Turning you see Seb hanging out the window of his car with a large smile on his face.

“Jump in doll!”

Doing as he says you hop into the passenger seat and get comfortable. “So where are we heading?”

Oh there is that smile again. He really does love to leave you in suspense. “Just put the music on.”

You arrive at your favourite restaurant in downtown New York and you can’t keep the smile off your face when you see who is standing at the door with a bunch of red roses in his arms. “Is that..?”

“Oh yes. I called in a favour and thankfully he made it back here in time.” You hear Seb whisper but your too focused on the equally beautiful man coming towards you.

“Hi, you must be y/n.. I’m Jensen.” Jensen Ackles. The actual Jensen Ackles is standing two feet away from you and all you can do is nod like a bobble headed dog. “Well these are for you.”

You take the flowers from him and smile up at him again. Seb nudging you slightly to break you from your trance. “Yes. Thank you. Erm.. it’s a pleasure to meet you.” You say, holding your hand out and letting him shake it. He touched you! Ok now you think your dreaming.

“You too. Shall we?” Jensen says, putting his arm out which you take way too quickly.

“I’ll meet you all inside..” You hear Seb say.

You look back at him and whisper a low ‘thank you’ as all of your family and friends cheer in celebration inside at your arrival.

Everyone needs a friend like yours.
