It's been a while since I've read that one specific fic I'm looking for. After reading the last sentence I bawled my eyes out and closed it; simply couldn't stand the pain and suffering it caused me. And now I want to find it again... because I still have hope that maybe the author wrote a sequel or continued. The ending was just so unfair.
Okay, anyway. Here's what was happening:Jensen's some kind of criminal (working for a mob boss or something? Might be mistaken though) and tricking people. He plays them to get their money.
Jared is (I believe) a lawyer and Jensen's target was supposed to be Jared's wife but she didn't give two shits about Jensen, only wanted him for the fun parts. Somehow Jensen figured out that Jared might be the better target for him. I can't really remember how he approached him.. a bar or something of the sort?
Long story short, Jensen fell in love with Jared and was plagued with guilt that he used Jared for the money. Money that Jensen had promised his 'boss' to obtain.
If I remember correctly Jensen and Jared were at a motel or something and Jensen told Jared the truth. Soon after that Jensen knew that the guy he was working for (and getting the money for) was going to get them, was going to hurt Jared. Jensen again told Jared and promised to keep him safe, to do everything in his power to protect him.
Then Jensen tricked Jared into leaving, pushed the bag with all of the money Jared could get from his bank account in Jared's hands and walked him out to the waiting cab. Jensen told him that he should go to (Mexico?) and he would follow Jared soon.
Turns out that the money was not in the bag Jared was given, Jensen switched the money into another bag and kept it... waiting at Jared's house for his 'boss' and some other groons to show up and get the money.
If I recall it correctly, Jensen's last line was: "What took you so long?" ...or something similar, because he knew they would come and the way it was written made me believe that they didn't come for the money only... I assumed they came to kill him or at least beat the living hell out of him (it hink they even did). But the fic ended there and like I said before, I don't know if the author ever wrote some addition to the story... if maybe these guy got their happy ending.
This fic is still haunting me and I just need to find it... if only to break my heart again... Sure, hell, why not. :(
