This is wonderful. Justin is so devoted to Brian and Brian is willing to accept his help. The word love is in there somewhere. I'm really enjoying these stories.

Thank you! It's really exciting to see so many people reading and enjoying them.

Awww. Thanks!

I adore cancer!arc fics, and this little ditty is near the top of the list. So simple and calm. The yelling is over, now comes Brian's quiet acceptance that Justin isn't going anywhere.
Lovely, Sev.

Thank you! I love them too, but the angst content can be so high that I don't write a lot of them.

I always loved that scene because I think it really started to sink in with Brian that Justin's love had matured to the "in sickness and in health" stage.

[severina2001]

*nods vigorously* I think that Brian would/will have a hard time accepting that he is worthy of being loved despite his flaws and that Justin isn't going to leave, but it's moments like this that make him realize it. And yes, I do talk of them as though they are real and their story is ongoing. :D

This is so beautiful. I love the way you show how Brian's feeling with the speed of his heartbeat -- that he's still scared Justin will leave at first, and then finally starts to believe that Justin really is going to stay. *happy sigh*

Thanks very much. I thought the writing of that part was a bit clunky, but it was the best I could do with my ability + time constraint. Thanks so much for pointing it out, and saying you liked it!
