This is a stupid idea. Walt would be furious if he knew Jesse was even considering a divorce, let alone that he actually consulted an attorney. Too dangerous.

But Jesse’s already gone this far. Why not see where this goes?

S1 AU. Jesse and Walt are a married couple going on five years of domestic drudgery. When Jesse discovers Walt's been hiding a cancer diagnosis, he pays a visit to divorce attorney Saul Goodman. But Walt isn't letting Jesse go without a fight, and his combative tactics all but push Jesse toward Saul, who's everything Walt isn't. As tensions climb and culminate, Jesse's got a secret of his own, one that could put himself and Saul in danger if Walt ever finds out.
