Fic: Upon My Liar's Chair 13/?) WIP

Title: Upon My Liar's Chair
Rating: Adult
Disclaimer: Thankfully, this didn't happen. I don't know them, I don't know what they do in their spare time, but I doubt it's any of this.
A/N: Much love to my wife for doing the quick once over. Sweet Charity fic, for avid_slacker.

“I'm going to wring his neck,” Jared growled.

Sandy smacked his arm lightly. “No you're not. You're going to do exactly what Jeff asked you to do. Jensen needs you to be his friend, not his mommy.” She narrowed her eyes at Jeff. “That goes for you, too.”

“I know. I just freaked out,” Jeff said, ducking his head. “I know too many people, hell, too many friends who went that path and never came back.”

“You're from Seattle, right?”

“Yeah. Grunge central. With a ton of people who made overdosing an art form.”

“But this is Jensen,” Sandy prompted. “He fucked up, but I don't think he would...”

“No. I just...yeah.” Jeff closed his mouth before he really started blurting shit he didn't want to.

She gave Jeff a sympathetic smile. “Understandable. You doing okay? This has to be hard on you.”

Jeff chuckled dryly. “It's okay. I'm holding up. I just wish I could do more.”

“Dude, how long have I know you? Four years? Yeah, that 'I'm okay' thing didn't work when you'd been on the set for ten hours, much less now,“ Jared muttered.

“You're right. I'm not. I just-” Jeff gestured, trying to find the words to explain something he didn't understand himself. “He's hurting so much. And I want to help, but everything I do is wrong. I'm not sure I'm the right guy to do this.”

Sandy shook her head. “You are such a man sometimes,” she said fondly. “I think you're the perfect guy to do this. And when he gets his balance again, he's going to see what an awesome friend you really are. Maybe even more.”

Jeff glared at Jared. “I thought that was between us,” he muttered.

“I didn't tell her,” Jared said quickly.

“Didn't have to. It's pretty obvious,” Sandy mumbled around a mouthful of pastry.

“I am not obvious!” Jeff hissed.

“Oh, Jeff,” she grinned. “You have no idea.” She looked down. “Okay, I'm going to take the babies to go do their business. You two talk amongst yourself.” She took Sadie's leash from Jared and headed over to the grassy area.

“Dude," Jeff said. "Your fiance is terrifying.”

Jared smiled. “Yeah. She is.” He looked at Jeff, focusing. “So, you haven't told him yet, I take it.”

“No. Jare, it's hardly the right time.”

“Yeah. If you say so. You know that his parents haven't called since he got out of the hospital, right?”

“What? No, I didn't. Why the hell not?”

Jared shrugged. “Who knows. I don't think they know how to handle it. His sister's called, and his brother, but not the parents. Hell, some of his 'friends' haven't called in a while, either.”

“I know Steve and Christian have been calling, Jason too.”

Jared nodded. “Yeah, but he's been fobbing them off, too. Hell, you're the only one who's seen him in the last month.”

“He's in for some culture shock tonight, then.”

“No kidding. Though really, it's just a handful. The makeup and hair chicks, Kim, Eric, Cyrus and Bob.”

“What happened to everyone else?”

Jared glanced down, shrugging. “Smallville needed people for a second unit night shoot. And hey, at least they're getting paid.”

His cell phone vibrated against his hip, and Jeff glanced down. “Gotta go pick up Jen,” Jeff muttered.

“Okay, dude. Take it easy.”

“I wish.”

Okay - so the evening awaits ... just how hospitable will Jensen be?

*laugh* Good question!

Thank you!

Oh Jen! Beware! They're coming to get you and sort you out now! I can't wait to see how the evening goes, in a really nervous, I know this isn't likely to end well kind of way! What are you doing to me? Poor boy, where have his parents been? Surely they know they need to put their own worries/feelings on one side for him (even if he's lashing out at them which I guess would have been a possibility). I shall quit rambling now and say just keep up the good work as I am eagerly awaiting an update. xx

Oh, excellent--karmic rewards for having to be up before 8 on a Saturday. I ♥ Sandy and I hope she keeps poking the Js about the mommy issue.

Yay!! I love this so much. I love Jeff and Jared being such girls! "I'm gonna tell you a soooper seeekrit and you totally can't tell anyone, k?" Like they did each other's hair and played MASH

And Sandy bein' all, PSH! I know what's goin' on!!

I love that this fandom has embraced Sandy so well. It could've been a MAJOR bitchfest, but everyone loves her.

Anyway! Loved it!

I realized I'm not commenting here because I keep an eye out on the file and you're not realizing just how much I'm getting into this story! So, this is me commenting.

I want to marry your JDM.

My love for this story cannot be textually rendered. You know that, right?

Ok, I kinda love Sandy now. ;)

I'm anxious to see what happens next between Jensen and Jeff and well everyone else as well.

*hugs*

*laugh* If she ever left Jare, Jess and I would totally snap her up, and put her in our pocket.

But they're just too damn cute together to break up. *grin*

Thank you!

[identity profile] avid-slacker.livejournal.com 2008-05-04 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I wonder if knowing Jeff returns his feelings would help motivate Jen, or if Jeff's right and it's just too soon. I'm dying to see how you writw the revelation.

In the meantime it looks like the dinner party is going to be interesting.

[identity profile] beanside.livejournal.com 2008-05-05 11:59 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure how that would work, honestly. *grin*

Thank you, darlin.

Sandy shook her head. “You are such a man sometimes,” LOL! Your Sandy sounds so much like me it's scary...or maybe it's just how I'm reading it. ;-)

This is a cool chapter. Jared going caveman, Sandy scolding, and Jeff so uncertain of himself. Loving it! What more can I say (without writing an entire essay)?

Waiting (somewhat) patiently for more. :-)

[identity profile] beanside.livejournal.com 2008-05-05 12:01 pm (UTC)(link)
*laugh* Thank you!

Sandy is just so...damn squeezeable. *nod*

I'm glad you liked!
