Even though Brian's conscious mind can't recall Justin, or who he was to him, his subconscious is starting to stir up memories.  Now all he needs is to recall those things while awake.  Actually, that is very observant about the judge's name.  Although I didn't base it on the teacher, it is ironic.  The name is based on a friend I had in the past who turned out to be homophobic.  Needless to say, our friendship ended, as I don't tolerate that kind of behavior.  

I understand your feelings about Mikey because many fans feel that way, but you won't find me turning him into a villain.  Nor will I send him back to David, who I always did consider bad.  But give it time.  Mikey won't stand in the way of true love.  I can promise you that.

Love the comment about the civil suit.  More on that in your next review.  Huge hugs, Grammy

Yes indeed, you read that correctly, Glo.  Justin is returning to the fold and it will change things profoundly for more than one person.  Justin did get a full scholarship so he is home to stay.  Brian, in the meantime, is trying to understand why he keeps having images of a young blond.  Only time will tell how much he'll remember and when.  Next chapter will be ready shortly.  Thank you so much for your wonderful comments.  Huge hugs, Grammy
