Wonderful, I wish Brian luck. I love the way you portray them so much. It's very rare that someone manages to give Brian a voice that keeps him in character and at the same time illuminates all the thoughts and emotions I always believed him to have. I love the way you have allowed him to grow so much. It's like a gift for me and - grin - this comes from a Justin adorer. I just hope he'll agree and makes Brian and himself happy. They so deserve that and are entitled to it all. Maybe it'll make me forget what they were left with on the show.

If he says 'no', then I'll know that whatever we have left, it's something temporary. I'll know that no matter what he says, he doesn't really see a long term future with me.

This breaks my heart a little and makes me want to protect Brian. He has already resigned himself to a negative answer. Please, Justin surprise him.
It's about time they give themselves this gift, love.

So … all I can do then is make the fucking most of whatever time there is.


Sigh...
Can't wait for the next chapter and my fave of yours is Homecoming... I am so glad I know they will get there!
Thanks for this wonderful chapter!
