《Photo of my life (Jensen X Reader)》Chapter 53

When I returned home, Jensen was waiting for me in the living room. "Welcome back" he says and kisses me.
"Can we talk?" I ask trying not to cry
"Is everything ok?" he asks worried
"Yeah" I say nodding my head.
We sit on the couch and I take a deep breath "This is something that I'm thinking for a while now. You know that I love my work, right?" I ask
"I do" he says and I nod
"I've been back to work only... what? A month now? But I think that I should stop"
"What?"
"Jensen, I love working and I love doing the work I do but I also love my family. And that thing we do right now, dropping Jack to my mom's and then getting him back when we are done, it isn't working. Jack is only with us during nighttime and when one of us have the day off. I mean we already lost his first steps because he took them with grandma and I don't want to lose his firsts. And honestly, I don't really like him traveling back and forth from Vancouver to Austin and getting on a plane every week" I say and I wipe my tears. "I thought I could manage family and career, all at once but I can't. So I choose our family and I choose to take care of it. Be the wife you deserve and the mother that Jack deserves" I say.
Jensen hugs me and rubs my back "I get it" he says "But don't ever think that you are not good enough for me, ok? You are perfect to me and I know that you are doing everything you can to take care of our family" he says and I nod

"I love you" I say
"I love you too" he says and kisses my head without pulling away.
"Trust me, it wasn't an easy decision to take but it's what it needs to be done" I say
"I know, don't worry. When are you thinking on leaving?" he asks
"Probably the end of the season because I've already signed for this year"
"Ok" he says and kisses me.
"That's what you needed to talk to Alex to?" he asks
"No, this was something that we discussed at the end to get me in the mood to talk to you"
"Ok. By the way, I did something today and please don't get mad at me" he says
"What did you do?"
"I saw Kate today"
"What? Here? What is she doing here?"
"She told me that she and her husband leave in Austin but they travel in Vancouver to see their parents. And I might have invited them for dinner this weekend that we will be in Austin"
"You what?"
"I couldn't stop it, I don't know--" he says but I interrupt him
"I need to call Alex" I say.
I get up from the couch and I lock myself in the room. I call Alex
"Hey, how did it go?" he asks
"Good. But something else came up"
"What?"
"It seems like Jensen invited Kate for dinner next week. He said that he couldn't avoid it which means that she still has the influence she used to on people and I'm scared Alex"
"Remember what we said, healthy jealously right?"
"Yeah, we said that when I thought that I wouldn't see her again. But know she's coming and I don't know how to handle her" I say.
"Remember what you say to me when I can't stop laughing while filming?" he asks
"What?"
"Be strong. Rock. Only this way you can have a chance of doing at least one take, right?"
"Yeah"
"So do your best to show her your best take and version. That way she'll notice how much better you are, because I'm sure that you are" he says and I chuckle
"Thank you"
"Anytime. And be sure to text me after and let me know how it went"
"I will. Goodnight"
"Goodnight" he says and hangs up.

8 143The Ingress Estate
Jonathon Eucole. Soldier. Scholar. Now an Initiate, the dedication without dedication, he finds himself both prisoner and master of an arcane edifice, the Ingress Estate, which can neither be escaped, nor controlled; only diverted, maintained, and pacified. This is a gothic fantasy story, set in a world in which gods and the afterlife are not only real and known, but were both established in living memory of some of the inhabitants after millennia of arcane warfare with the being who constructed the mundane reality the humans occupy. But this isn't the story of those who colonized the afterlife at the cost of their own humanity, but a somewhat more ordinary man, in somewhat extraordinary circumstances. This is also a LitRPG-lite, which means there's a system of sorts, fragments of which can be observed through Jonathon's eyes. Don't expect level-up screens, or statistics, or indeed numbers much at all, beyond those the inhabitants of the world itself apply to understanding their own reality. It pretty much doesn't matter to the story, I mention it so those who don't want to read LitRPG at all can successfully avoid it here. I don't have any particular plan here, just some ideas inherent in the genre. This is a character concept I toyed with some years ago; an old man, bright of mind but weighed down into apathy, both by his past and his responsibilities for a terrible estate that cannot be left without stewardship. Don't expect any kind of overarching plot or story, because that's really not what this is about. Also don't expect much dialogue. Or character development. Or much of anything, really, because I've planned nothing in the way of an actual book, here. Other relevant information, if you've read this far for some reason: The MC isn't super-powerful to begin with, and probably never will be. He's a veteran with some useful skills, and the insight on how to use them, so can deal with the world's ordinary threats reasonably well, but not too much beyond that. --- Currently on hiatus, as currently the story has a rather poor ratio of effort-to-personal-payoff. I may return to this once I have a clear idea of how to get the stories where I want them. I've started a more standard LitRPG using the same system. But if you like intelligence characters who cleverly min-max their classes, it probably isn't the story for you; it's the story of a rather ordinary guy who winds up in a very similar universe.
8 132The Demonic Chisel
A demonic sword transmigrates into a chisel. A short dark comedy about a demonic chisel.
8 124The immortal snail problem
“You get 10 million coins, but a magic immortal snail will spawn within 10 kilometers of you. It is as fast as a regular snail, but it will always be chasing you. If it touches you - you die. Do you take the deal?” This obscure message is the first thing you see along with a gun near your head. What will you do if you don't even know where or who you are? Problem...Yeah... I would even call it 'The immortal snail problem'. Improvisational writing. I will try to make small irregular updates. There may be polls. Enjoy.
8 113The Marked Ones
One morning, a boy appears on top of a hill. He has no memories of his past, nor does he know who he is. All he knows is that on his hand is a Mark that makes everyone around him view him with suspicion or hate. Soon, he will meet someone like him, and they must survive in a hostile world. The Marked Ones are enigmatic entities; they appear from nowhere, and some groups seek to exterminate them, and others seek to protect them. In the continent of Aeton, the boy will not be alone, and his main objective will be to reach the city of Adhaz, thus having to cross half a continent full of dangers. His story, and that of the groups that hunt or protect him, will bring a huge change to Aeton. Weekly updates on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday here and on Patreon. Due to various personal issues, updates will only be on Mondays.
8 117The Ramayana - Lakshmila's POV
We have read The Ramayana as kids and always knew it to be the story of Rama and his consort Sita. Every character has an important role to play. But not all of them have found much importance is any of the version. One such character is Urmila and her story with Lakshmana. All versions mention Urmila's sacrifice as "Unparalleled" but none depicted it. This story is an attempt to present the story of Ramayana from Urmila and Lakshmana's POV. Note : This story is fictional. The characters are the same. This story is an insight of The Ramayana through Lakshman and Urmila's eyes. There would be Nobody's POV also. The events are the same but the depiction is part of fiction. Parts of the story is loosely based/inspired from Sita's Sister but I have taken creative liberty to give my character more edge and depth.
