Wondering Why

Chapter 2 - A Perfect Meeting

April 5, 2021

Lexie was in the gym after lunch awaiting Karl to escort Mr. Ackles to the session. She decided to keep it professional so her mind wouldn't  wander to much and not use his first name... Which her inner fan girl was not too happy about...

They were now 15 minutes late to the session which wasn't unheard of as she knew that Karl was most likely introducing him to staff and touring him around set. But it was doing nothing for her nerves as those damn butterflies 🦋 were really going after it in the pit of her stomach...

20 minutes later she heard the door open. She was still in the office when she felt like she was gonna throw up 🤮 In a panic she just froze..

"Oi Love! Did you miss me? Guess who's with me!" He smirks 😏 as he looks at Jensen...

Silence...

Jensen POV Earlier...

He had arrived about 3 hours early as he wanted to walk around on his own to observe the set/facilities before he met anyone. Of course he's not new to set life but it is very easy to get lost if you've never been to the location before... Which he found himself in the middle of 4 Huge set buildings and one off to the side on its own. He could see through the windows and knew he had found the gym... Because he had a new love and hate relationship with his current fitness situation he decided to check it out... Karl had filled him in that the trainer worked half time here and half time in town at her own gym. So he was thinking since he wasn't due for some time he figured she would be out.

No one would typically recognize him in is current state anyway as he had grown his hair out and was sporting a full on beard for the role. Even though they just finalized his Contract etc. the previous week he had already agreed off paper with Eric and had been getting ready for the role for the past 6 months. So he was able to walk around without too many noticing/inquiring. He looked more like a bum (more like Homeless Hottie 😏 to all the women - though he didn't know it) than an actor and if anyone were to ask he would just say he's an extra. Eric and Karl were the only ones that knew he would be there, besides security and oh of course his new trainer...  So he was not worried at all...

Jensen walked into the gym to find every piece of equipment you could ever want in a gym. Knowing Eric, he wasn't surprised. Eric gave him the rundown on the sessions.  He and the other cast including Karl would meet with the trainer for 1-2 hours each day they were on set. This would be 1 hour of actual training and 1 hour for stunt work when needed.

He walked in and noticed movement in the window of what appeared to be an office... He walked in a bit further when he saw a woman with blonde hair, very fit sitting at the desk... He quickly backed away from view when he heard her let out a huge sigh.  He then heard clicks of what sounded like a computer keyboard and mouse.  A few seconds later he could hear music playing.  At first he couldn't make out the song so he stepped right outside the door, off to the side so she didn't see him, and heard her begin to sing...

"Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life

Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss knowing it's all good, it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
Look, I'm still around

Pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than fuckin' perfect
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing
You're fuckin' perfect to me..."

He stood there listening to her sing the entire song... Amazed at how good her voice was... As the song ended, he heard the next song start to play and she began to sing again this time her voice was at a whisper and he could actually feel every word she sang...
