Part 12

You and Brock managed to get the coffees and get back in one piece. Upon returning the rest of them were finishing up their Interviews as well.

You could feel a number of eyes on you two, but it was a certain pair of green ones that caught your attention. Filled with an emotion you couldn't quite identify other than maybe jealousy, which if he were single rather than trying to work on his marriage, you would have found of interest instead of annoyance.

You had to put on a happy face while Daneel and him were mushy around you, but the second you show even a remote interest in someone, he gets huffy? You were going to have to talk to him about it at some point, but right now was not the time.

The meet and greets and photo ops were kind of boring for those of you not involved, but you all did enjoy seeing the funny poses and props the guys had to work with. Brock asked you questions like what you did for work and how you met all of them, which then led to him asking questions about Rose, but you didn't give him much details and he noticed.

"Why don't you seem to like telling me much about your daughter?" He didn't ask in a rude way, he actually sounded a little hurt.

"I jus-"

"She doesn't even know you man. Why would she give a stranger details about her kid?"

You turned to see Jensen with a smug look on his face towards Brock.

"ACTUALLY...I was going to say...that I don't want to share a whole lot, because I already decided that guys I date won't even meet her until I feel there's something serious going on...she's already fallen in love with people who don't hang around for very long..."

You saw Jensen's face falter for a brief second before Daneel came up to escort him off to the panel area.

"Uh...is there something going on between you two I should know about or stay away from you for?" He looked nervous about your answer.

You let out an aggravated sigh, "You know...I'm getting pretty tired of people accusing that." You started to walk off, but he grabbed your hand.

"I'm sorry y/n. I didn't mean to accuse anything. He just seemed a little hostile towards me and he's never really been like that before."

You bit your bottom lip kind of at a loss of what to say. You knew Jensen was being hostile and you didn't know if he was just being an over protective friend or jealous, but you needed to worry about yourself. But you still had to talk to him too.

"I'm sorry. He's dealt with my ex and I guess he's just a little over protective since then."

Brock swung his arm around your shoulder, "That's understandable...was your ex that much of an ass?"

You walked with him to the panel area, "He can be...when he's drunk. Most of the time he behaves himself otherwise."

You both smiled at each other as you reached the panel area. You could hear the host starting the introduction for the panel. "Now before the main stars come out, we have some special guests! Come on out!"

"That's my cue. I'll be back in a few." He gave your hand a squeeze before heading out on stage to a crowd gone wild.

The questions started out simple enough. They were curious as to what he was doing since appearing on Supernatural, if he ever wanted to do another flashback episode, and what types of roles he wanted in the future. You could feel someone stand close behind you as you stood off to the side of the stage.

"You need to be careful getting close to him."

You could feel your fuse get cut in half. How dare he come over and try to tower over you and tell you what to do and not even in a concerned tone, but in a more commanding kind of tone.

"Who the HELL do you think you are?! I put on a happy face and ENCOURAGE you to try to fix your marriage and as soon as I have someone show even the SLIGHTEST bit of interest in me, you have to get all bent out of shape about it?! What the fuck Jensen?!" You were yelling in a whisper tone to try to not get too much attention brought to the two of you.

He gripped you by your elbow and pulled you further away from the stage with him to where there were less people.

"Let go of me." You tugged your arm as he let you go.

He looked at you as if he were in pain. You suddenly had all your anger deflate and wrapped him in your arms.

"What is going on Jensen?"

He wrapped his arms around you as you felt his body relax into the embrace.

"I...I don't know...I wish I did, but...everyone keeps telling me different things and I don't know who to listen to anymore and then I don't even get to talk to you anymore and you were the one thing lately that started to help things make sense again."

You pulled back to look up at his face. "Then why stop talking to me?"

"You said to do whatever it took to make things work...and Daneel...she doesn't like our friendship."

You sighed. Having been the female in their equation yourself, you could see things from her point of view, but you also knew it wasn't going to help them in the long run. She HAD to trust him and if she didn't, then why keep the relationship going?

"I can see why she would feel that way, but have you tried talking to her about it?"

"Of course I have...but she just thinks we're going to sleep together and still kind of thinks we already have."

*I wish* you think to yourself, even though you knew it was wrong. You hadn't gotten any in a little while and you couldn't lie that you hadn't fantasized about it before.

"Just give her some time. She'll see we're nothing more than friends and get over it. I promise." You pulled him in for another hug hoping to hide your unsure face.

"Thank you." He said as held you back.

"Now...do you REALLY think Brock is that bad of a guy?"

***Jensen POV***

She looked at me with a look of hope in her eye. They obviously found each other attractive and of interest to each other. I felt torn. One side of me wanted to keep her away from everyone and the other wanted to see her happy. She's been so supportive of me and Daneel, I should be supportive of her too...but I can't stop thinking about her and seeing her today...with him...it's been driving me nuts. But I'm working on things with Daneel...I can't keep y/n from trying to be happy too…

"He's an ok guy I guess."

"You guess huh?" She wore that playful smile on her face.

I was dragged from focusing on her by both our ears perking up to a fan asking Brock if he had anyone special in his life. Y/n turned around and made her way back to her spot on the side of the stage and I stood there frozen.

"Uuhh...actually...I did just so happen to sweep someone off their feet recently, or rather knock them off of them…but we'll have to see if that was more forced or welcomed still..."

There was a mixture of "aws" good and upset. But y/n's face got the brightest shade of red to it.

***Your POV***

He just told the fans he's found someone of interest...and that someone...IS YOU! OMG! You felt like you were back in high school being a freshman and having a hot senior flirt with you. Your face felt so hot, you knew it was red. He looked over at you and smiled and winked.

Instantly fans sitting in front of the opposite side of the stage from you started looking your way and snapping pictures.

Out of nowhere your vision went black as a body stood in front of you. You looked up to see a head with a beanie on it and knew it was Jared. You felt a tug on your arm as you were dragged off the side stage to find Gen standing in front of you.

"Well...you guys have DEFINITELY hit it off better than me and Jared had hoped." She had a huge smile on her face.

"I knew it! As soon as I saw your faces when you saw us!...Gen!"

"What? A friend can't try to hook a friend up?"

"Well...yeah, but come on! Brock?!"

"What's wrong with him? You guys seem to be getting along just fine so far."

"Well yeah..."

"Ok then. A thank you would work just fine." She wore a smirk on her face.

"Uh uh. I'll owe you one depending on how this goes..."

"Deal."

"Hey, that's where you went." Brock came up to you ladies.

"Hey Brock." Gen and him hugged in greetings and made small chit chat.

"Well I'm going to go take a quick shower, and have a quick nap before the fun this evening...I'll see you ladies there?"

"Of course," Gen answered for you.

"Awesome. I'll see you ladies then." He leaned in to give you a quick peck on the cheek before heading off.

"Y/n and Brock sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G-"

You clamped your hand over her mouth. "Don't you dare finish that song."

She batted her eyes innocently at you with your hand still over her mouth.

You couldn't help, but get excited about seeing him again and spending some more time with him.

(Author's note: Sorry it took so long to get this up. Had to catch up on some class work and work was crazy with bills. But I'm back and excited to continue this story )
