Brian was sitting down listening to Michael talk about things in the shop. He was happy that his friend was there giving him support. Ben had gone down to the cafeteria to get Brian something to eat. They both looked up when the door opened expecting Ben but Ethan walked in. “Hey.” “Ethan? Hey, how are you doing?” Michael asked. “I’m okay.” Ethan told him. “I heard what happen. I came to see him.” Brian didn’t say or do anything. “How is he?” Ethan asked. “He’s getting better.” Michael said. “He’s breathing on his own but he lost a lot of blood and he hasn’t opened his eyes yet.” Ethan nodded and walked closer to Justin. He looked at the blonde and caressed his face. “What the fuck do you think you are doing?” Brian roared. “What?” Ethan asked squaring his shoulders. “Brian, relax.” Michael said. “Get your hands off of him.” Brian warned him. “Brian, come on. Let’s go outside for a minute.” Michael said. “No.” Brian protested. “Don’t make me bring Ben here and carry you out.” Michael warned him. Brian looked at his friend and glared at him. He followed Michael out of the room while sending Ethan a murderous look. “What the fuck do you want?” Brian asked. “I want you to relax.” Michael told him. “Forget Ethan.” Brian shook his head. “What he fuck is he doing here?” Brian asked. “It doesn’t matter. He doesn’t get to stay.” Michael told him. “So tell me how you are doing?” “I don’t want to talk about it.” “Brian, you have to tell me.” Brian gave his back to Michael. Michael walked over to his friend and hugged him. Brian started crying in Michael’s shoulder. “I’m scared.” “I know.” “What if he doesn’t make it?” “He will, Brian. He’s going to be okay.” Michael told him. They stayed like that for a long time until Ben came. Brian smiled and rubbed his face. “Can we go back inside? Ethan is probably having his way with Justin.” Brian asked. Michael laughed and nodded. “What is he talking about?” Ben asked as they went back into Justin’s room. “Time’s up.” Brian declared as he looked at Ethan. “It’s time for you to go.” Ethan looked up and shook his head. “Excuse me.” “You don’t get to tell me what to do.” Ethan said. “I know that the two of you weren’t together. It was all a farce to make me jealous.” Ben and Michael looked at each other. “What the fuck are you talking about?” Brian asked. “I have been watching him. You guys barely talk.” Ethan spit out. “Ethan, I think it’s better if you leave. This is not the time.” Michael told him. “I’m not leaving.” Ethan said. Brian narrowed his eyes at him and was about to grab Ethan by the neck and pull him out when the machine started beeping off. Brian took a step back and watched in shock as Justin’s pulse went dead. There were people running inside the room and pushed everyone out. Brian was numb. *** Jessica sat down and looked at Brian who had Gus sitting on his thigh while they both inspected Angel. She smiled at him and watched. “He’s getting big.” Brian said. “Yeah.” Jessica agreed. “He looks just like him.” Brian whispered sadly. Jessica took a deep breath and nodded. “I’m scared.” “I know. Me too.” She told him. Brian looked at her with teary eyes. “They fucking had to revive him.” Brian told her. “I fucking hate this.” “Fuc in.” Gus repeated. Jessica raised a brow. “Under the circumstance everyone is allowed to curse.” Brian told her. Jessica gave him a little smile. “He’s stable now, Brian. The doctor said it was the drugs they were giving him. I know he is going to be just fine.” She told him. “Daddy!” Gus yelled and smiled at his father. Gus grabbed Angel’s little hand. He kissed it and then looked up at his father offering him Angel’s hand. Brian took it and kissed it just like his son had done. “They looked adorable together.” Jessica told him. Brian nodded. Jessica saw Emmett walking towards them. “Hey, do you want anything to eat?” Emmett asked Brian. “I can take the kids.” “No.” Brian told him pulling the two boys closer to him. “I’ll eat later.” “Do you want anything?” Emmett asked Jessica. Emmett looked at Jessica who shook her head. He turned around and left towards the cafeteria where everyone else was. “Why are they all so obsessed with food?” Jessica laughed. She got up and sat closer to Brian. She put her hand on his face and made Brian look at her. “He loves you very much. And if…when he wakes up and you guys are together, you better be good to him. I will kick your ass if you don’t treat him like he deserves.” Brian smirked and nodded. *** Brian sighed as he sat down on the hard cold chair. He pulled it closer to Justin and took his baby’s hand in his. “Hey baby. How are you doing today?” Brian asked. Brian looked at Justin’s face and smiled. He smiled at how Justin looked like a beautiful angel. “I miss talking to you.” Brian spoke in a low voice. Brian wondered if Justin could hear him. “I was thinking that after you woke up maybe we could take a vacation. It won’t be anything big just you and me having some time together. I’m not letting you go this time Justin. I know what you mean to me.” Brian whispered as he started to message Justin’s hand. “Rick is doing better. He blames himself for what happen to you. I think he is seeing a shrink. He should have started years ago.” Brian told him with a little smile. “Don’t you think?” Justin opened his eyes slowly and stared at Brian. He watched as Brian kept talking about someone that was mentally ill and for a second wondered if he was talking about himself. “Who the fuck are you talking to, Brian?” Justin asked. Brian’s head snapped up to look at Justin. “I think you have gone nuts. Fuck, I am in so much pain.” Justin complained. “How long have I been here? Go get the doctor and tell him I want drugs. It hurts. That fucking bastard shot me. Is he dead?” Brian’s mouth was hanging open as he stared at Justin. “I’m so fucking thirsty. Could you get me some water?” Justin asked. Brian kept on staring. “Brian, when can I leave?” Justin asked and looked at Brian. Brian was not saying a word. “Do you think you can get me something to eat? I’m starving.” Justin told him. Justin arched a brow and waited for Brian to say something. “So while I was here, did you go deaf?” Justin asked sarcastically. Brian smiled from ear to ear happy to see Justin’s blue eyes staring at him like he was fucking nuts.
