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.

I read several of your stories and I liked them all but I admit this one is one of my favorite fanfiction! This story is fabulous! Thanks Tag.

Thank you. I'll tell you a secret - I think this is my own fave of all the stories I've written. Not sure why, but it's just got such a happy ending. Thanks for reading. TAG
Ethan’s pursuit of Justin might have seemed like a romantic meeting of two like-minded, artistic souls, but was it really? What if there was a more sinister motive behind Brian and Justin’s breakup? Canon Divergent story starting with ep 2.16.

I had already read this story some time ago and, like all your stories, I really liked it.
But since then, like Justin, I opened my eyes to my relationship and realized that the man I've been married to for 19 years and with whom I have 4 children, is a narcissist.
Like Justin, it took me time to wake up, to accept reality... Unfortunately, because divorce takes time, because we own our home, leaving is more complicated. And because we have 4 children, he will always be part of my life.
But suddenly, these events in my life gave me a more moving reading of your story, bringing back memories that were not always pleasant.
So I wanted to thank you for this story which, even if it was not always easy to read, has the merit of existing.
Author's Response:
Oh, Sara! I'm sorry to hear you're going thru this. I know from personal experience how difficult it is. All I can say is, you WILL get thru it. Somehow. Just knowing the reality of what's happening is a big part of the battle. It will take time - Lots of time and effort - to get away from your narcissist. And there will be losses. But you'll figure it out.
Also, in case you need it, check out the book, 'Divorcing a Narcissist: One Mom's Battle' by Tina Swithin.
Good luck. And thank you for reading my story. I'm glad it helped you a little bit.
