Summary: Justin has been hired into the art department at Kinnetik. He is in what he perceives as a loving relationship with his boyfriend Ethan. Slowly, he will begin to redefine that when his new boss returns from his trip. As Justin gets to know Brian – his very dominant and controlling boss – he will begin to learn things about his own true nature that he had long kept dormant. What will happen when Brian, who is immediately intrigued by Justin, determines that the newest member of his staff possesses sub tendencies that he craves to own? Once chosen, Justin’s life will never be the same again.

STORY IS NOW COMPLETE!

It’s now 2019, and Brian Kinney is back in Pittsburgh. He left eight years ago on the eve of his 30th birthday for New York; all that remained in his loft were his clothes, mobile, and a video making his feelings for his family and friends clear. They couldn’t understand where this had come from, all efforts to contact him were rebuffed. Lindsay and Michael were especially devastated, Lindsay wanted to tell him about their baby and Michael was going to take his heart and courage in both hands and profess his love for Brian. 

So why is he back and what does Vic’s nursing assistant Justin Taylor have to do with it? .

Justin accompanies Brian back to Penn State where Brian must face his past. In the process, Justin begins to understand how a relationship with his professor helped Brian develop into the man he is today. 

When a surprise visitor shows up at Britin, life is turned upside down for the Kinney-Taylor family.

Who would you be if you had no memory of who you were?     

Begins during the Rage launch party in 220. Much of Brian may seem out of character here, because... well... who is Brian, really?  

NOTE: Please remember that literary license is being taken with the factual aspect of the medical diagnosis of amnesia here. Although Transient Global Amnesia is a factual diagnosis, it is usually of very short duration, and quite rare, no matter what television and stories try to make of it. My interpretation, since this is fiction, is a bit longer than medically factual. 

I own only the fedora. Everything else belongs to CowLip, et al. 

Just like on the show, Brian and Justin had sex that first night Justin went to Liberty Avenue. After that, the story goes off-canon and Brian will find out that there is more to Justin than meets the eye. Justin isn't just a normal trick like all the others.

The story is finished and will be updated once a week. 

Brian and Justin have moved the family to Atlanta for the summer. Justin planned to focus on his art students and his own work. J.Jay, his assistant, would be helping him at the gallery and with the other young artists that would come and go throughout the summer.

Brian had a couple leads for new clients he planned on working on this summer but his main plan was to spend as much time with his kids as he could. He especially wanted to spend time with Gus. Since Lindsay had come back to the states, Brian felt like he was missing out on so much more and Gus was growing up so fast. Henry had come along to take care of the kids. A housekeeper had been hired to do some of the cooking and to clean while they were there. It was the perfect home away from home for the Taylor-Kinney clan.

Kevin had started the Center years earlier and now had bigger plans for Legacy Atlanta. Tom Butterfield had been running the place since Kevin had moved to Pittsburgh. His wife, Natalia, had been working with Brandy and Sally, Kevin's adopted daughters, and he couldn't wait to meet his newest granddaughter, Kelin Cae, who had been named after him. They planned to open a new, expanded Center that would be able to help more struggling, young adults.

Another benefit to the trip was to get away from Craig Taylor. If it was the last thing they did, they were keeping full custody of Aaron. Craig may have donated sperm, but that was his only contribution. He was still on parole, so he wasn't allowed to leave the state... or was he?

Justin Taylor and Brian Kinney had a lot in common. They both had to raise themselves. Neither of them had a picture perfect family and by the time they entered college they were on their own. Brian is a private investigator working on an art theft for an insurance company. Justin just moved to Pittsburgh and is now working for Emmett Honeycutt and George Schickle in the Schickle Art Gallery. Brian arranges to meet with Justin, hoping Justin might have heard something working with art.

There are instantaneous sparks when they meet, and the heat between them begins to grow and grow. Will Brian find the art thief? Does Justin have the connections to assist him? Will they be able to focus on the case at hand or will their attraction to each other distract both of them enough to fail.

Time heals all wounds, but some wounds are too deep. On the day Brian seeks Daphne’s help, it happens to be on the same day when Justin returns to Pittsburgh after years of absence. And he brings baggage and a sketchy past from New York. As much as Justin has tried to run from the lure of Brian's tangled web, he is about to fall right back into it. Will this time around be any different with the lessons they had learned over the years?
