Summary: Jared Padalecki has accomplished everything he has set out to do. He's a high-profile lawyer with an excellent winning streak and a beautiful fiance on his arm. But when one case turns deadly, Jared takes a step back, into his past, and visits an old friend in Texas. What he doesn't know is that his past is there, alive and well, in the form of the man he's never forgiven himself for letting go.

A/N: I want to apologize for this being posted so late. You know Murphy's Law? That was definitely in effect with the posting of this story. One thing after another happened, but miracle of miracles, here the fic is!

I also want to say a huge THANK YOU to the mods for being so kind and understanding while I was losing my mind. You guys ROCK. And to my artist, I am in awe of how incredible you are. Being more worried about my well-being than this story, well... I guess there are still good people in the world, and I was lucky enough to find one on the Internet. I'm glad we're friends.
