Missing the boys together? Want some J2?
I picked some fics from my bookmarks that are a bit on the longer side. I hope everyone finds something they can enjoy and/or don’t know yet
Pharmakon by cherie_morte
Jared is a farm hand, the sole breadwinner of a poor and growing family. When his brother steals an herb from a witch to save his sick wife, she curses the entire family, turning them into swans.
Jared returns home to find his family missing. The witch makes a deal with him: if he can knit six shirts out of poisonous nettles in three years and put one on each of his cursed relatives, it will break the spell. But Jared must also promise not to speak…which seemed like a pretty easy thing to do, until a beautiful prince stumbles upon him and takes him in. Basically, a J2 retelling of The Six Swans fairytale.
Jensen Ackles is thirty years old and he’s never been with a man before. When he finally works up the nerve to try it out, he thinks picking up a hooker from the street will keep things from getting too complicated. No part of him is ready for the slightly broken Jared and the boy’s wishes for a life he could never have.
Happy Plastic People by anyothergirl415
In the wake of his family’s hatred, Jared is left to deal with the pieces of himself. Being friends with a perfect Christian boy like Jensen is downright terrifying but Jared can’t seem to stay away.
Call Me Freedom by bad_peppermint
Jensen spends all year looking forward to summer, his own version of heaven: Two months of nothing but soccer, Jared, and soccer. The South Coast Summer Soccer Championships are his best chance to be recruited professionally once he graduates from high school, but this time, real life encroaches on his sanctuary. In the picture perfect confines of John Hart Academy, during the hottest summer in Texan history, Jensen tries to come to terms with his fellow players, his new position as captain of his team, and his confused sexuality. And then Jared kisses him. Struggling to make things work with his best friend turned boyfriend and his unaccepting teammates, Jensen is beginning to think that winning the Championships might turn out to be impossible.
Lazarus Rising by cherie_morte
Jared’s had a rough year. His boyfriend dumped him and he’s out of work, saddled with a pile of student loan debt after dropping out of school to care for a sick relative. Hoping to cheer him up, his sister enters him into a contest for an unusual prize: ten days alone with world famous rock star Jensen Ackles, Jared’s childhood hero. No cameras, no entourage, just a chance to get to know one of the biggest names in music one-on-one.
Jared wins, but it’s not the dream come true it should be. It’s been a long time since Jensen’s glory days, and he’s fallen on hard times himself. Fresh out of his fourth stint in rehab, Jensen is now better known for his bad attitude and party lifestyle than his music. When he arrives, Jensen turns out to be even worse than the tabloids say. Jared can hardly stand him and the feeling seems to be mutual, but Jensen’s label is offering a generous per diem and Jared needs the money almost as much as Jensen needs the good press.
As the days pass and Jared begins to see through Jensen’s bad boy act, he discovers a heart that beats to the same broken rhythm as his own. But ten days go quickly, and it’s hard to imagine a future outside of the quiet world they’ve shared in Jared’s home.
A Dime If You Tell Me That You Love Me by cherie_morte
Jared wastes his days idly riding buses in quiet rebellion of his family’s extravagant lifestyle and suffocating demands. One day, he sees a man from the bus window who is everything he isn’t allowed to have. After talking to the stranger, Jared learns that he can have Jensen after all—as long as he’s willing to pay.
Screw You, We’re From Texas by makeit_takeit
This is what could have happened if fate twisted differently, if they never got those big Hollywood breaks and instead ended up living the lives they grew up expecting to lead. More or less.
Beware of the Jade God by sparklingice
When clumsy exolinguist Jared’s ship crashes on a planet classified as uninhabitable, he is prepared to find his death there. But what he discovers in Saxet-d’s vast jungle gives him a new take on life instead.
“Jared can’t believe what his life has narrowed down to. Stranded on an alien planet while possibly carnivorous creatures fight over who gets to chomp on his bleeding wounds. And to make matters worse, the dotted one won’t stop staring with those neon green eyes of wild fascination.”
A Very Neighbourly Christmas by soy_em
When Jensen and Jared meet Jeff, their new neighbour, they are definitely interested in getting to know him better…
Three Halves Make a Whole by whisperedstory
Jared resigned himself to the fact that he doesn’t have a soulmate years ago. He never felt the bond that is supposed to form as teenagers, guiding two people together. He has tried to find happiness elsewhere instead, focusing on his job and friends.
And then, one day, Jensen walks into his bookstore and the bond snaps right into place. Jared knows they’re soulmates instantly; Jensen’s the person he’s been hoping to find all his life.
The only problem is that Jensen already has a soulmate.
