Another gorgeous Jensen/Jared love story.

Faint Stars and Bright Satellite Skies written by marishna.

This is a Jensen/Jared RPS AU, in which Jensen is a big time movie star and Jared is a regular joe at a small town in Texas. Jensen is there filming for a movie and meets Jared in a bar where Jared saves him from being beaten up by some drunken locals. They get to know each other and Jared, who initially dislikes Jensen, gradually respects Jensen and they subsequently fall in love with each other. But things are far from smooth sailing for them. Jared is straight ( until he meets Jensen that is ) and is engaged to be married while Jensen is a closet gay and has issues of his own with regard to coming out.

A beautiful story, once you start reading it you won't be able to stop. Fantastic characterizations - shy, insecure Jensen, despite being a famous movie star, with his oh-so-subtle courtship of Jared. The honourable Jared, determined not to hide his newly-found gayness but forced to do so at Jensen's insistence.

They lay in silence for a long time. Jensen half thought that Jared had fallen asleep but when he glanced over he noticed Jared's eyes were open and clear as they stared up at the night sky. Jensen got the feeling that this was the most still that Jared ever got outside of sleep and realized with a start that this was probably the first time that he could remember that he'd been able to do absolutely nothing. He sighed and felt some of the pent-up tension he'd been carrying relax from his body.

You spoil me so. I know that whenever you post a link to a fic that I will love it, and this is no exception. I read it for two hours on my PocketPC while I was getting highlights done. :D

I made the mistake of starting it just before bedtime, meaning to just, you know, bookmark it if it's interesting. Heh, I slept at 3am that night :)
