Brian and Justin have been together for seventeen years, well, more or less: seventeen years have passed since the night of their meeting, the one in which Gus, the son of Brian and his friend Lindsey, was born and since then they have been on and off regularly.
Gus, however, is willing to do anything for his relationship to be as smooth as silk, but he has just moved to Pittsburgh and the only thing he is sure of is that life is a mess and this, in essence, is the only thing on which father and son agree.

In Aftershock, we see how Justin's bashing at the end of Season One affected Brian. It ended without revealing how the bashing affected everyone else who loved and cared about Justin. The series skipped from that iconic scene of Brian sitting in the hospital right after Justin was admitted to a month later at the beginning of Season Two, so we have to use our imagination about what went on at the hospital after Michael joined Brian. I hope you will find my perspective interesting.
Many thanks to my beta, Judy, for her help and my darling Granddaughter, Marika, for the evocative banner. And also thanks to those who asked me 'what about the others' when they read 'Aftershock'. Their questions led to this sequel.

The first time Debbie Novotny heard about Brian Kinney, Michael was in the eighth grade. It was just after spring break. He’d come home from school chattering away excitedly about the new boy in his class who’d just moved to Pittsburgh from some town she couldn’t remember. All through dinner it was Brian this, and Brian that. Michael was clearly enamored with this Brian kid.

One of our readers made a request for stories that involved the immediate aftermath of that tragic bashing of our beloved Justin and how Brian responded to it. I believe it inspired a lot of our writers, including myself. I do hope you will find this story interesting, although I can't say it will be a lot of fun, considering the subject matter. Please keep in mind how things did turn out for the couple later on as you reach the end of this story and don't be too sad.
I want to thank Gloria Hernon for her brilliant suggestion. I also wish to thank my beloved Judy for her beta skills and my beloved granddaughter, Marika, for her amazing banner.
