                “Reports are flooding in that Genevieve Padalecki has officially handed the papers to Jared as she files for a divorce.”

                “NO one saw these coming but Supernatural fans, the Padalecki love train has come to a catastrophic ending as Genevieve tosses the papers at Jared.”

                “Cheating, sexting, I mean what didn’t Jared do while he was working and she was at home being the perfect little wife? What is the truth and will we ever know whether or not this stud stepped out on his lovely wife.”

                I turned the TV off as everything was about them.

                I stood up and grabbed a robe tossing it over my bare skin.

                I looked out over the city as the streets started to come to life.

                I leaned on the railing when I heard the guy from down below calling up to me.

                I shook my head when I saw him at the door.

                I walked back into the room and saw the money on the desk.

                I slipped it into my bag then got a shower and freshened up a bit.

                Blake was sitting around the corner from my hotel waiting for me.

                I sat down across from her.

                Blake glared up, “They are all over the news.”

                I nodded my head as I ordered a drink and Blake just wanted a water.

                I ran my hand through my hair, “Do you see what else they are talking about?”

                “You mean Danneel and Jensen back on?”

                I nodded my head back at her. “This is going to happen, Blake.”

                “But I mean just like that, you are done?”

                I grinned back at her, “I saw the note. I know what I know.”

                Blake nodded her head as she got up, “Then get ready for something you don’t know.”

                I turned around when I saw him just standing there.

                I slowly stood up as Jared walked over to me.

                “What are you doing here?”

                “Throughout everything, you have been the only friend to tell me the fucking truth. You were the only one fighting for me.”

                “Jared, why are you here?”

                Jared looked down and closed his eyes.

                I went over to him and wrapped my arms around his neck, “I won't hurt you.”

                Jared wrapped his arms around me and cried into my shoulder.

                I closed my eyes as I dug my head into his shoulder, “I won't let you go back.”

                “I won't let you fade back into that Jared.”
