Five years have passed. Justin's turned 27, Brian just going on 39. What if Justin wasn’t the success he’d hoped to be in New York? What will he find when he returns home destitute, his hopes dashed? Has Michael managed to realize his fondest dream? Can Brian and Justin overcome the mistakes made during the intervening years?
Note: Though this may seem like a Brian/Michael pairing, it is not. Michael is not nice and does hurt at least two characters.
