    It seemed like everyone you knew, and then some other people, were against the idea of the two of you getting together.

    You've heard countless times how he’s too old for you, that you’re too immature for a man like him, and you’d never be able to satisfy him. But your personal favourite would probably be how he’s a rockstar, and those are known to treat their partners poorly.

    Clearly, they saw Jensen for the outline he gave them, the image he presented himself with to keep his persona intact. They thought you didn’t understand — that you were just a mindless lamb, desperate for attention you didn’t get when you needed it the most. They thought you were chasing ghosts of what you didn’t get to have, trying to fill the certain void in your life.

    What they didn’t know is that Jensen was the only person who treated you as an equal instead of a ditzy thing who couldn’t do as much as try to form a single thought.

    “You’re high as a kite, baby,” he chuckled, gently taking your chin and pulling you in for a kiss.
