Hey Darling! I definitely agree with the title...Change is GOOD, especially when it comes to ignorant people getting EXACTLY what they deserve!

Daphne is an absolute menace in the very BEST of ways! LMAO! She's certainly one of the few chicks I would have loved to hang out with growing up in Brooklyn; she'd fit right in. IF Michael ever finds out he was bested by none other than Justin's best friend, there's going to be no place he'll be able to show his face EVER! Is it wrong for me to beg you to make it so, oh writing Goddess?! LOL

As for Ted....YES!!!!! BRAVO, Baby Boy!!! Poor little Lindsay wasn't expecting to be outclassed and bested by someone she totally believes is beneath her. And he did it so smoothly, too! I won't put it past her to convince Mel to try her luck with him, since they are supposed to be really good friends...or are they? Yes, I picked up on the sarcasm when Ted alluded to all of the times Mel claimed she didn't want or need Brian's money. Well, I'm with Ted...Let the harridan prove it!

Speaking of which, what has the Tyrant Twats of Toronto gotten themselves into that they NEED the support check? That reveal should be interesting to say the least, especially if it's because of something they failed to do or even have to do, like leave Canada. I really do hope they try to push the financial issue with Brian so they will have to justify their reasoning of why they are using Gus' support check for any and everything that is NOT Gus. Oh, hello Skeletons...are you all coming out of the proverbial closet? I mean it is Halloween and all...LOL

And now for Captain Asshole himself....WOW! What a lazy, dysfunctional scuzzbucket! First, I cringe every single time I hear his voice in my head...YIKES! But now the thought that he is looking at porn....BTW, I really hope that Debbie took Michael's computer to work with her, after having searched it while he was downstairs in the basement reading his comics. It's funny that he doesn't like to be micromanaged when that's all he's ever tried to do to his friends, and now his own mother. But now that Deb knows the true nature of Michael, I hope she has a lot of fun treating him like he was fourteen in age, instead of just in his mindset. Having him move into the basement, and systematically curbing his 'freedom' should make him see the advantages of being an ADULT at long last. However, I have a bet going with myself that as always, he'll probably just see it as his due for being born. For some reason I just thought of "Flowers in the Attic", so I suppose I suppose Michael's story could be called "Crabgrass in the Cellar" or should that be Crab Ass. I don't know, but I shall have loads of fun reading what happens NEXT!  

Brian and Justin are just sweetness and hotness personified! I'm so glad that Brian is not answering his phone at all, and that they are really taking the time to get to know each other without the pressures of everyone else. I think they will need to be on a solid foundation with each other by the time they return to the Pitts. 

Can't wait for MORE!

Happy Writing and HUGS,

Holy Cow! That was one hot, Hot HOT chapter! Did you have to stop for a cold shower in the middle of writing it?

To Brian it’s the greatest present he’s ever received...

First the gratifying shower blowjob. Second, the sensual way Justin came just from nibbling kisses and licks from Brian's tongue. And third, the arousing, erotic sex they had in bed.  I'm so very happy that Ethan hadn't ever spoiled Justin first time. Now, will Brian remember those three little words he said?

And oh, such is a wonderful thing as 'overdraft pritection'. :)

Thanks for this steamy update. Will the Toronto trip happen next? Looking forward to it.

XOXO ~ Cathy

You did an excellant job of making Brian romantic while keeping him in character.

Kathleen,

This chapter was perfect. They woke up in each other's arms, had a HOT shower, spent a romantic day together while screwing chin-rat over, then made love and fell asleep in each other's arms again. Love this story.

I hope Ethan won't get away with all the BS he told Justin and all the money he got out of it.

Brian to the rescue.  Love it.

I enjoyed this chapter immensely. I like this Brian. It was really sweet of Brian to have Justin enjoy his time in Italy making new happier memories. Hopefully all his old memories or the chin rat will desinerate into nothingness.

There's not much Brian can do about the residual effects of the bashing except be there when just needs him. Whether to talk or to listen.

So glad the fiddler got to see just who he was replaced by as his moneytrain walked away from him.

And so the beginning started. A loving trust. Thank you for filling in the back story of how Brian came to be in Florence and how he knew where Justin was. And I'm so glad he did. It was just what the two of them needed.

The next question is how long will they stay in Italy? Will they be there long enough to do some damage to Ethan's life, or will they leave right away and head to Toronto to deal with Mel and Lindz?

So happy you've stated this sequel. I'm very happy with the start...

XOXO ~ Cathy
