So glad to see an update. Lots of good stuff- wish Justin would let Brian know about the twins.
Interesting conversation with Cynthia- I think there is more to it than Brian is letting on- not sure what it is, but he is bothered by Lily finding out that Cynthia is her mom.
I love that Debbie took Gus out of school to come see the recital.

Twins- I almost expected for him to tell Brian first- they have become reallly good friends- I think it will be interesting for him when he shares it with Brian.

First:
Let me tell you I'm so excited that after a very long break, you decided to return to this story. I know there was a lot of controversy since Brian and Justin were not together. I do prefer them together, but I still enjoyed this story.
I'm very worried about Molly. Hopefully she will get out from under Seth's ever watchful eye.
I'm really enjoying all the characters and the way they all interact. Justin having twins by himself would be scary for anyone, but he does have a lot of support. Hoepfully, he will ahve Brian's supprt. I know you wrote that they will be together- I can't wait to see how that works- but regardless, so glad you came back to the story.
Author's Response:
I'm glad you are still following the story! I really appreciate it. The hate and controversy made me take a very long break, but I am feeling a momentum forming again and am looking forward to writing the sequel.
Molly is definitely going through a lot. She has Hunter and her family - as well as Hunter's family - but it's been a long term and overwhelming situation for her.
Developing each character has been a fun and interesting process. Trying to find the major characters' voices has been fun, as well as the minor canon characters' voices (like Tucker, Molly, and Craig) and the original characters' voices.
Newest chapter is now up! I hope you enjoy it!
Present day, post-episode 5.13. Justin has returned to Pittsburgh to build a life and future with Brian. When Daphne asks Justin for a favor, he agrees without realizing the effect it will later have on him, Brian, and their entire family’s lives.

Curtis deserved this as he kept screwing up other people's lives. Go Melanie for telling him no

Mel has integrity.
Thanks

Starts after episode 2.01. The night Justin is released from the hospital, Brian is so overwhelmed with guilt that he goes on his most destructive bender yet, OD’ing on a combination of club drugs that literally fry his brain. While Brian is struggling with his own mental health issues, Justin feels abandoned and slips into depression. This story is about what happens when a fortuitous event reunites the two several years later.

great ending- enjoyed the story
I always love when folks discover this story. It’s my own fave, for some strange reason. It’s the one story of my own that I read when I’m feeling down. And despite the OOC characters, they seem to make me happy. Thanks for reading & reviewing. TAG

Yeh= go Ted and Lily=
I chose this story because it is not your typical Brian and Justin story. Also it deals with a subject that is very important to me. I lost a friend due to the lack of a donor -Lorie
Life has always been a constant struggle for eighteen year-old Justin Taylor, until one fateful day at the diner when he meets the man known as the Stud of Liberty Avenue, Brian Kinney. Both of their lives are changed forever in a way that neither of them ever anticipated.

Michael always had poor timing. Somehow I missed reading this story. So glad I found it. Enjoying generous Brian with young and naive Justin
Date: Dec 14, 2019 Title: Chapter 19: What a Piece of Work is Man
At least Brian is admitting to Justin that he means something. Brian better grow up fast or he'll lose Jsutin. And Michael, ugh- pain in the mikta
Date: Dec 14, 2019 Title: Chapter 20: Chow Down
So glad Brian relented and let Justin stay with him. Would hate to see what Michael would have done if he'd been staying with Brian.
Brian and Justin live in different worlds. Brian is still based out of Pittsburgh, while Justin is in New York. Yet, they still have a great deal in common. Both are successful...both are respected in their fields...both are wealthy...both feel like they should feel on top the world….and...both feel like there is something missing in their life. It’s been five years since they have seen each other. Will a chance meeting bring them together, or will they remain as far apart as ever?

I can really feel the angst and heartache from both men. Hopefully, Brian will finally convince Justin to give him a chance. I do love the way you have everything realistically problematic. I know our hearts want them together but we all know that they are not really going to heal and fall into a relationship after five years without some discussion and thought.

so glad you liked thepacing of this story - hope you liked the rest as well - thanks for your response!

Leave it to Brian to keep Justin as his POA. He has always loved him and did want the best for him. UPdate soon.

Leave it to Brian to keep Justin as his POA. He has always loved him and did want the best for him. UPdate soon.
Brian Kinney had a terrible childhood and a difficult, lonely life as an adult. Before the age of thirty he's already become so jaded that he doesn't believe in love or even in true happiness. After years of dealing with a dysfunctional family and an uncaring world, it seems like he's just about ready to give up completely. But, the guardian spirit that's been watching over him since Brian was a baby decides to save him, teaching him that true love does exist and that it can even transcend the laws of space and time.

Don't know how I missed the story in the past but I'm glad I'm reading it now. Great back story on Brian and I love Justin as a guardian angel, even if he can't ehlp Brian a lot.
Author's Response:
Glad you've found it now. I always wanted to know in more depth how Brian became the man he was in the series - this is my fanciful idea of how that happened. Happy reading. TAG
Justin moves to New York. He runs into an old acquaintance of Brian's, who is going to play a big role in their relationship, testing its strength. It's one of the most emotional stories I've written so far.
