Supernatural Imagines

Photo Op (Jared x Reader)

Summary: You have a photo op with Jared at a Supernatural convention

Today is the day you meet Jared Padalecki. He had been your idol since you could remember. You have been watching the show for a long time. You were nervous about what to wear and ended up going with a simple supernatural shirt with the three boys on it.

You arrived at the convention and it was at a hotel. There were small owned businesses set up at the convention with little knickknacks and items you couldn't even think about being sold. You saw the iconic Angel blade being for sale for $200 and thinking nope. There were pictures of the boys next to the Angel blade for sale to have or get signed but both costed money.

You were broke. This had been the last thing your mother bought you for your birthday. The wound had been fresh so everything about this was emotional for you.

You bought some supernatural items and saw Misha and Jensen walk by with some security. "Hi guys!" You say but they ignore you. "Okay... weird..." you frowned and zip up your bag. You attended a panel that Richard Speight Jr. and Rob Benedict were hosting. They had their live band set up as they played. You sat in the very back, listening. You thought about your mother and how she would've loved to come with you.

You took a breath. "You okay?" Someone said next to you. You didn't bother to look. "Yeah... just... my mom would've loved to been here. Ya know?" You kept it short. "Yeah... it's not easy losing a loved one." The voice said. You finally glance beside you and saw Jared just sitting with you. "Oh my God... you're-"

"Shhh. Yeah, I am. What's your name?" He says sweetly. "Y/N." You reply. He holds your hands in his. "It's gonna be okay... you're gonna get through this. She's watching you now with a smile on your face." Jared told you.

You sniffle. "Always Keep Fighting?" You say. Jared smiles. "Exactly." He says. He then let go of your hands and wrapped an arm around you. "You okay with me doing this?" He asked you.

"Yeah..." You mumbled. He rubbed your arm before it was time for him to go. Jensen and Misha watched as he left you.

You took a deep breath. You held your bag close to your chest. You looked at the time of your ticket and realize you need to get in line.

Jared lit up the second he saw you enter the photo op room. He smiles wide. "Y/N!" He says. "I didn't know you had a photo op! And with me? I'm honored." He says. You set your bag down.

"It's the last gift my mom gave me before she... passed." You explain. Jared lost his smile. "Oh... should we do something to honor your mom then?" He asked you. You shake your head. "No... she would've wanted me happy." You tell Jared. Jared nodded.

"Maybe I could give you a kiss on the cheek... you've saved me with AFK." You explain. Jared nodded and soon you took the photo. He ended up signing it for free with his own personal message:

Y/N,

Lovely meeting you today. Remember AFK. If you need to talk to someone I'm here. My phone number is- #999999999

You stare at that photo everyday in your house now. It was framed up on the wall. Next to your mother's photo and ashes. "This was for you, mama." You say.
