This story has long been on my list of much wanted 'things to do'. I don't have a lot of time for reading, but when I read your Facebook post, I couldn't resist any longer. So... this morning I decided to lounge in bed and pulled the story up on my phone. I couldn't stop clicking 'next' at the end of each chapter. I am HOOKED! The detail is amazing, and the emotions simply pour from the page. This story is such LOVE for me, and I can't wait for more.

Haha. I loved the Facebook bit. I can sooooooo see Brian being all dodgy about his personal info - haha. Poor Brian is so tortured. Makes me feel so sad to see him struggling so - both physically and with the demons of his past. The dialogue in the car was such fun. It flowed perfectly. This was a great long update. I loved every moment of it... and excited to read even more. 

Thanks for the update. *Hugss* Janet 



Author's Response:

Thanks for reviewing, and glad you liked the long update. I can't believe I almost hit 9000 words. That is my longest chapter yet. But you all deserved it for waiting a decade for me to update hehe.

Don't you just want to hug, Brian?  So much has happened to him and he deserved none of it.

So happy you enjoyed the car dialogue. I always get so nervous about my writing and you have just made me feel super powerful LOL

Thanks again x

Several months after Brian and Justin part ways, a private airing of their dirty laundry results in a night of passion that neither one can forget or stop. But what happens when Brian is tired of playing second 'fiddle' to the fiddler? And how the hell do they keep the Gurus of Gossip aka the 'family' from finding out about their affair?
Based on the plot bunny from TAG!

I was so excited to see this update, Chelle! This is probably my most favorite WIP out there right now. This story delves into so many often contemplated ideas, and deep reaching emotions than many do. I was swept away with each and every word!

The sex was scorching, of course! I loved that Justin was pushing Brian to losing control, and that it wasn't Brian coming direct at him as his typical fashion. Clearly, Brian is already struggling a bit, and wants so much more - whether he is ready to say those words or not. It seems that Brian misses that emotional boy who would always 'try' to reach him. What Justin didn't understand then, was that he always does 'reach' him. You just have to watch this complex man closely to know that.

I could go on about everything I loved about this chapter, and the story in general... but my job probably thinks I need to get ready for work! Haha! And you know I can't resist saying - of course it had to be Michael banging at the door! 

Thank you for another fabulous update, Chelle. Loved it!!

*Hugss*

Author's Response:

Thanks a million Janet! Your encouragement means so much more than I can say. This is definitely a complex plot and there is so many different avenues I intend to go. The strange thing is that this was actually intended to be a light-hearted, fairly angst-free fic, LOL

As for Brian: I think his talk with Emmett and Jennifer had a lot to do with his questions to Justin. It was one thing to hear things said by Justin in anger; another thing to hear basically the same things said from other sources. This time Brian figured that he would probably get an even better understanding once he and Justin were sated and at least semi-relaxed. Working through Brian and Justin's problems is like tending to a garden- until the weeds are pulled out, they can't find the roots that need nourishment. Brian is only beginning to address the major cause of their current suffocation- non and/or miscommunication.  

As for Captain Pain-in-the-Ass at the door...well let the peeping and hiding games BEGIN <in my sinister announcer voice>

Happy Reading and HUGS,

~Chelle

Oh my! What a spot Justin is in now! So much plot progression in this chapter. I felt I had to hold onto the edge of my seat to keep up with the horrifying developments. Not sure who I detest the most - Ethan, Lindsay, or Michael. Right now, I think Lindsay is leading the pack. I can't wait to see each of them receive their comeuppance. So much to worry about here. I have no clue how Brian can find Justin, but my goodness, I hope he does and quickly. 

Amazing and well developed chapter, my friend. It was so riveting! 

Thanks for writing. Looking forward to more! *Hugss* Janet



Author's Response:

Hey Janet! 

This was definitely one chapter that revved up the angst factor. I think that I agree with you regarding Lindsay although Michael and Ethan definitely come in a close second and third. They make me want to lock them in a cabin and send Kathy Bates in with her sledgehammer...LOL

Thanks so much for the compliments to my work. They mean more than you know!! 

HUGS!!

Have I told you how much I LOVE this story? LOL. Okay, I know i have... but it bears repeating - I freaking LOVE IT! There are so many variances I could touch on. If I do that, I will be here in this little comment box all night! 

I loved the talk between Justin and the chinrat. Muse. Ugh. I've used that many times myself. I always shudder as I write it. Ethan is always so stale. I don't think it's possible to write him to be interesting - not even a GREAT writer like yourself! Perhaps if we didn't know him, couldn't visualize him, or hear his nasaly, whining voice - maybe, just maybe it would be possible. Let me ponder on that. Hmmm. Nope. He's still boring. LOL.

But again, and to move this revieew forward.. I love all of this chapter. Whether I like some of the characters or not - some I utterly loathe (obviously we know which ones), your characterizations and progression is amazing. The detail is immense, and I am enjoying it more than I can say. 

Thank you for another amazing chapter, Chelle. This story is utter brilliance.

As always, looking forward to more!

Chelle, this chapter was pure brilliance from start to finish. I can't tell you how much I loved it, or highlight all the reasons. If I do that, we'll be here all day! 

I simply loved their time at the amusement park. I can see how a man that always is in control, and feels the need for it, would be a bit out of his element suspended in the air, dependent on the reliability of mechanics. That was fun. And, I think he enjoyed it! 

As for the rest, the emotions, and how you portrayed them are perfect as usual. justin getting his memory back was the icing on the cake. How I wish we would have seen this explored more fully in canon. But, you did such a fabulous job with that here.

Thanks for writing. This story is addictive!

Hugs,

Janet

OMG, Chelle. This was utterly fantastic! Absolutely amazing. Finally, I get caught up, and what a time to do so. It's so good to see these disgusting pigs outed. I was cheering as Michael continued to insert his foot in his mouth - in a way only he could do. Cowardly little worm as always. Him and Ethan... and let's not forget Lindsay. Ugh. What a chapter! Brilliant and so filled with emotion. I can't begin to take it all in. 

And let's not forget about the scene from the roof. Phew. I don't even have to be there and still I felt like an intruder. It was so well plotted out, and the emotions felt so intensely. Loved it! 

Another amazing chapter, my friend. As always, I can't wait for more. 

Thanks for writing! *Hugs* Janet

WOW! Steamy... and I think a very in character gapfiller for this well remembered scene. I know even though the canon moment was hot, so much was missing. I think you more than filled that void with this HOT piece. Very much enjoyed this. Thanks!

This was one of the first d/s story I had ever read - long ago. And now I've written so many of my own. This one was a definite inspiration. Thanks for that, and this great story. Glad to see it posted here. The more that discover it, the better IMO.

In the book of Kinney, there is no such thing as enough. Haha. Delightful piece, ladies. Fun, hot, and refreshing to see that no matter how much time they are apart, the chemistry and their knowledge of each other is always intact.

Thanks for writing. *Janet*

LOl! I think I have to agree with Brian - there would never be a time when I've had enough of these two. Thanks for reading! TAG

Very nice start to this one, Rody. I know it isn't any surprise that I LOVE vampire stories. I am looking forward to learning what happened here, and how everything develops. 

Thanks for writing! :) 



Author's Response:

Hehe! I've toyed with the idea of writing a vampire story since I read your stories ages ago. Then I finally got the courage to tackle the plot bunny and...voila!

I hope you'll like it as the plot thickens.

Summary: Though this starts out at the Streetlight the rest is a bit different. Not a Bdsm. Smut alert! Fresh out of college Justin Taylor, the college stud, heads out to capture his prey.

Rarely do I have much time to read these days, but I made the time to take a break. I do love this. It's nice to see a stronger, more assertive Justin. It is something different and you are doing so well with it! I definitely look forward to reading more.

Another great chapter. It's always wonderful to see Michael and Lindsey put in their place. Excellent writing. I could easily visualize this scene playing out. Thanks for writing!
