Warnings: None
This story picks up during Season Three and follows on my first story Brothers and Friends. This is still a pre-J2 story where they are just beginning to realize that they have something more than a deep friendship between them.
This is just a story idea that hit me a while back on an idea of what might have caused Jared and Sandy to break up. No way is it the truth, but then again, that’s why we love to read and write fanfiction.
I’m trying to stick within the following timelines:
Writer’s Strike ran November 5, 2007 – February 12, 2008
Jared mentions at the Chicago 2007 convention that they were filming episode 11, had the script for 12 and was hoping to get 13 filmed before they would have to end due to the strike. This story makes mention of filming Jus in Bello so for my story, ep 13 didn’t get filmed until after the strike.
I know that the March 29-30, 2008 SPN Convention in LA is where Jared announced his engagement to Sandy. However, to work for my storyline, the announcement he makes is that he and Sandy broke up. I know it was the June 6-8, 2008 Convention in Dallas where Jared actually did confirm he and Sandy are no longer engaged
I know Jensen didn’t move in with Jared until after the breakup. In my story it happens just a bit earlier. Jensen’s original plan was to just move his belongings into Jared’s place during the hiatus before they started filming Season 5 until he got his own.
I also know absolutely nothing about how the “business” end of Hollywood works in as far as the working relationship would work between Jared, Jared’s agent(s), Eric, CW, WB or any attorneys. I also don’t know the real names of Jared’s agent or any attorneys for the CW/WB or any of the entertainment unions, so they are all OC’s.
And lastly, I do believe that the boys are capable of speaking in sentences that don’t require the words “fuck or shit” to appear at least every other word. Not to say that they won’t use it, it’s just not the only 2 words in their vocabulary.
