Title: Just Touch Me Again
Author: Saabira, Dreams, Broken
Characters: AJ, Howie.
Prompt: 37 Make-up.
Rating: PG-13.
Length: Medium.
Brief summary: Howie and AJ work things out. Wonderful fluff that'll make your toes curl. Everything is described very well, and it plays to all your senses.
AJ fidgeted with the sand at his feet. “Howie? Do you love me?” He asked quietly.
Howie inhaled a quick breath and closed his eyes. He didn’t speak.
“Howie?”
“Of course I do, AJ. I love a lot of people.” His voice was barely above a whisper, nearly lost in the crashing waves.
“You know that’s not what I meant,” AJ said. “Do you love me like you love the guys or do you love me? It’s a simple question, Howie. I’m not asking you to do anything. I just need to know.”
Howie nodded once.
AJ smiled. “I thought so,” he said, relief evident in his voice. For a while he’d begun to doubt himself again. “You have to let me try, Howie.”
“Try what?”
“I’m in love with you. Completely. And there’s not shit I can do to stop that. So all I can do is try to make you see that it’s not the end of the world. That just because we had a fucked up start doesn’t mean we’re going to crash and burn in the end. And you already love me, so you have to let me try.”

Title: Tattoo Tattoo Tattoo
Author: Lucy, lucy_fic
Characters: AJ, Brian.
Prompt: 08 Friendship.
Rating: PG.
Length: Short.
Brief summary: An adorable little piece, mostly dialogue, where AJ tries to get a little influence on Brian's son. Guaranteed to make you smile.
"Does too," Brian said. "I'm trying to teach him to say 'tattoo.'"
"Rock," AJ said, definitely impressed. "First word?"
"Leigh's pretty sure it's going to be 'mama.' She has more opportunity for brainwashing during feeding time," Brian said. "I'm going for second word."
"Cool," AJ said. "Hey, that's what we can do on his eighteenth birthday, man - take him out and get him inked."
"For a moment, I thought you were going to say sixteenth," Brian said.
"Nah," AJ said. "For his sixteenth, we take him out and get him a girl."
"AJ," Brian protested, but he was laughing again. "That's my _son_ you're talking about."
"I know, man," AJ said. "We gotta make sure he gets a good start in life. Or, hey - maybe we'll have to get him a boy when he's sixteen, eh? Like we did with Nick?
