J² non AU stories that will restore my faith in J²'s true secret love  
Howdy! Or if you prefer, hey hey! WHAT’S UP?

So, here’s my case. I've never successfully managed to post a comment to this community, maybe because I've always been too busy to take the time to read the instructions of how to post and do it correctly, but I've just had a go at that today seeing as I’m on vacation and now I'm hoping that I'll manage to get one through. It's one of my New Year's resolutions! :D

Here's my request :

(ETA : I tried to put a LJ cut here, but it was a fail)

I'm looking for works of ‘fiction’ where Jared is hopelessly devoted in mind and soul to Jensen, but he doesn't let it show because he doesn't think Jensen could possibly return his feelings. To make things worse, they play brothers on TV. When Jensen finds out, he doesn't get angry. He's surprised, and it takes him a little time to adjust. But, he loves Jared, so there’s greatness that ensues.

I love it when one or the other is scared.

I'm seeking stories that are J² non AU stories.

Plot is everything to me. So, basically, I really don't want to read any PWPs. I’ve already had my fair share of those in the past.

Examples of stories that I've read recently and that kind of follow along those lines are : I Can Feel You Tremble When We Touch and The Jared Padalecki Untitled Project

I love it when there's misunderstandings and fights, but they work it out in the end because they're mature adults and they love each other like crazy. So, because they love each other, they find a way to work it out (… short term, not long term). I also read a story once where Jared called Jensen a coward because he wasn't coming to terms fast enough with it. It drove me a little crazy.

Basically, I want Jared and Jensen to be together in a way which isn't so far-fetched... Because, I know that they're very « business as usual ».

If you start to alterate them in ways that change who they are (their favorite meal, their favorite color, the things they can’t live without...), then we fall into the whole category of J² AU stories, and I find them hard to follow because we're following what the author likes and not what Jensen and Jared like. Of course, the only thing that's to be changed IMO is their heterosexuality.

Anything set around SEASON 5 is adored.

Unfortunely, babies scare me. Once they started having babies IRL, there came this roadblock in my mind. See, commitment to that degree freaks me out, and I’m so not at that stage in my life. Whenever I think of babies, I start to think that I need to hit up the GYM again and get out my sneekers so I can perfect my cardio and therefore the art of running away. Also, I'm allergic to assholes... So, please save me the infeditely because I don't want that.

I’ve been digging here and there on a bunch of sites, but these stories are not easy to find. Most stories are either HET or J² AU stories.

P.S.- I love Sandra McCoy, Danneel Harris, Katie Cassidy, Alona Tal... And, it never hurts to have a touch of femininity here and there in a fic...

P.S.S.- Tornadoes fascinate me and terrify me. So, stories with natural disasters like this...

THANK YOU ALL BUNCHES!

Just One Breath http://kee.livejournal.com/13376.html
Summary: Following a horrific event on set, Jensen's life hangs in the balance and Jared figures out what's really important. Alternate Summary: Jensen sacrifices like Dean. Jared angsts like Sam.

I'm not sure if this one is Non-AU enough for you but I added it just in case.

Imprint http://mass-hipgnosis.livejournal.com/47599.html
Summary: In a world where love at first sight is a documented scientific phenomenon, and potentially lethal, Jared and Jensen still meet for the first time when they've both been chosen for Supernatural; things just go a little differently after that.

Thank you muchly! :D

These look fantastic, although I must admit that the second fic appears to be an J² AU story (i.e. fantasy, fable, tale, etc.). To this, I'll add that although I love science and technology, I've never been much of a 'science fiction' follower, albeit the fact that I like Harry Potter because it reminds of my childhood.

I'll give it a go though! ❥

Who knows? Maybe I'll like it! P.S.- Thanks again for taking the time!

Seconded! :D
Both these are FANTASTIC fics!♥ I too wondered about whether Just One Breath was non-AU enough, but regardless it's a must read.

Oooh! And I adore Imprint too! Excellent recs :D
