You know what they say, my dear: when it rains, it pours! But I think that the boys have weathered much worse.

For me, it was important that Brian have a life after Justin because it seems unreal to think he wouldn't. Life didn't stop after Justin; it was just different for him. And, at least for me, Trevor is the sort of person who fits into his life at this point. The popular belief that Brian can either never find anyone again or has to fall in love with someone has always struck me as odd. For a guy who likes to fuck, it seems natural for him to have emotionally matured to the point where having a steady fuck buddy around wouldn't be unheard of. But maybe that's just me, haha! I know it's a touchy subject for a lot of people.

Falling back on their past--exactly. I felt bad for subjecting Justin to all this stuff especially, but I think that Brian and Justin's foundation could use some firming up before they can progress. There are some issues in their past that need addressed or fixed, and that's what we're going to be doing for the next two chapters or so.

Thanks for reading, hon! I appreciate it and your enthusiasm. <3

I know what you mean. It's seems very popular belief that Brian just spent the rest of his existance in mourning until Justin returned. While I do believe Justin is "the one" for him, doesn't mean that he never looks at any other guy ever again. And like you said, I think it's even more likely that he got himself a fuck buddy instead of his just tricking around.

And yeah... there are things in their past that they need to figure out. So many things went unsaid since they drifted apart and before that, too, that need to be addressed before they can move on.

Phew... I'm very insightful at this time of day...
