Christmas didn’t go the way Brian expected, thanks to Justin.

Here I am, in my mid-30s, thinking about love. The love that I have sought, found and lost. The love that shaped me, broke me, and built me up again. Every relationship, every encounter was a chapter in my life, a chapter that made me the person I am today.

My idea of what is goes on in Joan's mind.  It will make more sense if you have read the recent chapters of "Holiday Happenings".

„Mit dem Papst hatte er vermutlich so viel zu tun, wie sie mit einer Nonne“

Sie, eine erfolgreiche Geschäftsfrau, glaubte weder an die große Liebe noch an feste Bindungen. Männer? Sehr gern. Eine Beziehung? Lieber nicht. Für das Stillen Ihrer Bedürfnisse zahlt sie. Schneller Sex, ohne Verpflichtungen, das ist genau ihr Ding. Treu nach dem Motto ihrer Anti-Emotions-Vereinbarung.

Er, ein wenig erfolgreicher Musiker, ein naiver Träumer, verkaufte seinen Körper, um seinen Lebensstandard aufrecht zu erhalten. Verliebt war er bisher nur in die Musik, nicht in eine Frau. Sex spielte dagegen schon immer eine große Rolle in seinem Leben. Er genoss seine wechselnden Bettbekanntschaften und irgendwie war das dann zu seinem Beruf geworden.

Treffen beide aufeinander wird es hemmungslos, unbeherrscht und hochexplosiv.    

Completely AU. Can Justin live with Brian and remain best friends? There is a bit of Brian/OMC sex (Not an actual relationship) but don't let that deter you. It fits with the story, but ultimately it's all about Brian and Justin.

When Gale makes a mistake and he doesn't know how to fix it, all he can do is wait.

Justin's supposed to make a decision about Brian's life. He just doesn't know if he can. However, there is a twist that helps him decide in the end. (This is not a death story, but a life story.)

Season 2 Episode 11:

Justin: This marriage stuff is kinda cool. In fact, I was thinking maybe someday…

Brian: What, you and I?

Justin: Yeah, stranger things have happened!

Justin is traveling with Ethan Gold on a European tour.  When they arrived in Amsterdam, they realized the car they were supposed to have for the week had not been set up.  With the help of the hotel, he hires a young American to drive them around the city.  True love will always win. 

Brian and Justin don't meet on Liberty Avenue. But a murder trial starts an odd domino effect. 

QAFgiftxchange :  Prompt :  B/J

Not my usual type of story-   a little PWP

Brian clicked on the wrong Taylor.

Alternative ending to Season 5

From a plot bunny I saw years ago

Brian and Justin got married in the ceremony they had planned. They loved their rings. There had been many times as Justin worked on an art piece he felt Brian’s heartbeat as he worked at his desk. Many times they felt their heart beats sync and they both would feel the connection. They still went out to Babylon and on certain nights agreed to party with others but only if they were together and only if both of them agreed.  Most times they talked about a night like that they still went home together. There was a little flirting and a kiss or two but neither of them had broken the rules they had set for their marriage. Being able to feel the beat in the band made them feel more connected than ever.

I wrote this for National Coming Out day. It's how I would have liked Joan's reaction to Brian in Season Two. 

Justin regrets leaving Brian the moment he turned his back. He had this wild notion that Brian would come after him. He deluded himself into thinking that Ethan loved him. All Justin wanted was to feel loved. But shortly after he moved in with Ethan, he started changing. He knew it was happening, but he couldn't get himself out of it. He fell down a rabbit hole of depression, fear and humiliation. How does he get away from Ethan?

What if Brian had taken the job in New York in season 1? After three years in New York, Brian returns home to Pittsburgh to find that things and more importantly people have changed. 

This was one of my first attempts at fan fiction and I am not 100% happy with it. Still I decided that some people might like and appreciate it anyway. 

QAF gift Exchange.  Secret Santa fun. 

Just a fun little Halloween story inspired by a plot bunny by Tuneesha Regu.  She wrote"So, Brian is a wittle spooked by Justin's Halloween look. Is it just a Halloween makeover or his ray of Sunshine is possessed *evil grin*

This is what I came up with.

“Let’s play ‘Never Have I Ever,’” Emmett exclaimed, clapping his hands excitedly. “We’re all drunk enough to be brutally honest.” 

***

A Fourth of July party hosted by the Novotny-Bruckner's, numerous pitchers of margaritas, and a bonfire -- the perfect ingredients for an unforgettable night between longtime friends

Continuation of Independence Day. Brian is grown and very happy with his life, thank you very much. He does not like change. 

A series of text messages exchanged by the gang. 

Brian and Justin are finally living together at Britin as Justin moved back from New York. They have a moment filled with some angst, love and happy bantering.

Sort of gap filler/alternative ending for episode 306. After Justin finds out Ethan’s a scumbag and is sitting alone at Woody’s, Brian comes up to say hello.

When is enough, enough for Justin and Brian? 

It seems like it’s one thing after another for Brian and Justin.

After the attack they receive news that will change their lives, but will it be for the better? Are they strong enough, not only individually, but together to battle the latest fight?

Rating: PG (Sexual suggestiveness, language)

A bit of fluff

Brian is a business man with few morals but much career ambition. He wants to make partner at his company, Vanguard Advertising, and to do that he needs to secure a deal with a lucrative new client. When he discovers a sneaky way to accomplish this goal and Justin-heir to the Taylor Hotels Empire-winds up being the key, will he decide that ambition trumps all? Or will he find that when it comes to love, all bets are off??

Marny gave me another awesome banner. Thanks girl!

Justin just wanted to try a night out at a different club. He didn't expect it to make him question his whole relationship with Brian. Post season 3, pre-season 4.

Gale’s frustration shows, when Randy can’t seem to put his iPad down and come to bed…

***Featured Story for January 2015***

Brian and Justin never had a relationship.  Justin is still trying to get over his ex-boyfriend Ethan.  A mysterious stranger accidentally dials his phone number.  Will Justin find out who the stranger is, and where will it all lead?

A loud noisy visitor at 3 am wakes up Ben and he's not pleased to see them. But perhaps some things have greater meaning than you first ever imagine.

In this alternate universe, Justin Taylor is a young prince whose daily agenda was to eat, paint and sleep. Till now he couldn’t really understand what pain or fear exactly meant, he never experienced it, the closest probably was a rose thorn pricking his thumb.

All that changes on one sunny day when Justin is busy following his timetable meanwhile, blissfully unaware, that he was being negotiated into marriage with a ruthless emperor, Brian Kinney by his very own father in order to save their kingdom and people.

Now Justin is locked with the invisible chains of marriage.

Oh and by the way that’s Brian’s ninth marriage.

What happens when the life you know is all a lie?

Much love to Predec2 for the wonderful banner xoxoxoxo

New chapters will be added, but I can't promise how often it'll happen. Any requests are welcome.

Hello, everyone.  Today is special to me.  It marks the 7th Anniversary of the very first time I wrote and posted a fanfic story.  As has become my custom, I wanted to give you something special to thank all my wonderful readers for their loyalty and support of my work over the years.  

A little over a year ago, my muse abandoned me for a while and my work trickled down to almost nothing.  Then another couple entered my life and my muse returned full force.  To show my appreciation to both couples that inspire my work, I've chosen to write a little something about all 4 of my favorite men.

Rather than writing a story, per se, I've chosen a different format.  I decided to interview Brian, Justin, Agron, and Nasir.  I had only one important question to ask of each of them.  Why do you love the man in your life?  Thankfully all 4 men came to me and took time to answer the question in depth.  I hope you will enjoy their interviews.

Huge thanks and gratitude go out to Judy, my wonderful beta, and Amy, my beautiful banner maker.

I am very willing to beta and help create any type or kind of story :) I am excellent at editing and am also very creative and an awesome writer. I enjoy reading all things QAF so I'm just willing to help further and better the authors original idea. My only demand is that I am put as co-author or at least acknowledged :) I also have lots of free time and get excited about new stories so I'm always available to help. So if you would like to have me as your beta just message me or contact me at snlamb1717@yahoo.com dont be shy! 

Brian is deceived. What will happen when he finds outs?

*****Please read the warning in the Story Notes*****

I would like the thank my awesome Beta – AL

If you're wondering why the title... yes, it was inspired by "With Arms Wide Open" by Creed. I've been thinking of making this song into a story for years... and it finally came to me today. 

I sincerely wanted to get this done earlier, because my original purpose of writing this was to wish Predec2 a Happy Birthday! That's right, KP ;) I wrote a story for your birthday, cause I had to do more than just send a simple Happy Birthday wish. 

I was trying for sweet, fluffy and happy, and while I managed the sweet and happy, the song that inspired the story just led to a bit of angst. I made sure there was still smut and lemons though... what's a Brian/Justin story without that? Not to mention, it's one of my stories. 

Happy Birthday Kim! This story's for you! 

Cheers, Laura :) xoxo 

**Written for the "Spring Is In the Air" Challenge**

I don't own these characters, and the only reward I receive from my stories is the joy of sharing the 'depth of love' that for me always has and always will exist between these two.

Brian had been restless.  For the first time in his life he found that he was growing tired of the same old routine.  He wondered, with the change of seasons, if something -  or someone  -  new might be possible in his life as well. Still, he knew it was unlikely that the type of man who could make the difference that had been on his mind was actually out there - and he was quite certain that if he was, it was more than a little improbable that such a man would just simply drop into his life...

I would like to extend a very special thanks to Predec2 for an awesome Easter gift - my very first banner. It is beautiful and couldn't fit the story better. I am so excited and grateful. Thank you Kim for your consistent support and encouragement. You're the best!

Brian is the luckiest man in the world...

Featured Story for the month of January 2013

Schmoopy Alert!  It's the boys' wedding day.  B/J One-Shot; Post 513 Ep. AU

Justin sees the vette for the first time and makes an assumption.

There's cuddling by the fire...

The men have an airport rendezvous.

This is a "What If".  What if Seasons 2 - 5 never happened and it was all a dream or was it?

Summary: Brian asks a question.

Author's Note: What do you do when you are plagued, PLAGUED, with ideas? You just have to write them, I guess. I was on a bit of a writing spree/roll/bender this entire weekend. Couldn't help myself and couldn't stop myself, and I have no idea why. So this one-shot sort of poured out of me and here it is. Enjoy!

I have a new story for your weekend reading.  My beta, Judy is still on a whirlwind trip after enjoying her time at the glorious QAF Rise 'n Shine Convention so this is unbeta'd temporarily.  I'll post corrections asap when she is able to get some extra time in her super busy 28 hours a day.  LOL!

This is my newest version of what comes after Brian and Justin part at the loft, and Justin heads off to the airport for his flight to New York City.  As we all know it was Winter time.  Who could forget the unforgettable scene as snow fell outside their window when they made such beautiful love together?  Well, what if the snow fell so heavily that night that all flights were delayed?  And what if Justin, who we all know loves to make conversation with interesting people, finds himself sharing the waiting hours with a kindly old lady (yes, I'm putting myself into this story) who also enjoys a good conversation?  Where does it all lead?  Read on to find out.  Many thanks to my Granddaughter, Marika, for taking time out of her 4th of July celebrations with friends to provide the lovely banner.  

"It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime." – Khaled Hosseini

When Justin comes home, Brian's nowhere to be found!

Brian is a cynical writer whose days pass on making bitter comments about his surroundings. Brian's search for inspiration attracts him to Justin, sweet suburban boy, and then there's of course Debbie, a motherly puppet master.

Brian comes to New York to bring Justin home, only to find... Justin's not quite ready...

What would happen if Brian had told Justin about the cancer? AU.

Thank you to foreverbm on LJ for the banner!

(In this story of a different era the (1970’s), Brian and Justin are in the closet.  Brian’s the ambitious and hotshot Governor of Pennsylvania, with intentions of running for President; while Justin’s a renowned Movie Star struggling to make the transition from Child-Star into adult roles.   And, Brian’s (teenage) son, Gus Kinney, has some serious relationship problems of his own.  

This story is about people in-love and the difficult time they have coping in a world that has little tolerance for their type of love.

Note: 

In this story a straight couple is used as a sub-plot to help better define Brian and Justin’s relationship.  To spell it out:  Brian and his straight-son, Gus, are so much alike; only major difference is that Gus flows freely with his emotions, whereas Brian consistently attempts to suppress his.  So, Gus’s relationship is used as a catalyst that would eventually persuade Brian to embrace his love for Justin.

Warning:  Lots of Condom Free Sex (however, was appropriate for the times)

Disclaimer: All recognizable characters in this story do not belong to me. They belong to the QAF TV series. I just post here for entertainment purposes only. No monies are made by me and no copyright infringement is intended.

A last farewell to our favorite couples... 10th story in the Rainbow Inn Universe but can be read as an epilogue... Slash, est. Gibbs/DiNozzo, Brian/Justin, Booth/Zack, and House/Chase.

Inspired by the song Wish You Were Here by Avril Lavigne.

All he wanted was tell Brian that he's leaving, no big deal. To some degree he has expected Brian to not take this well but this... this is beyond 'not well'.

set around 5.08. All the canon events happen, just in a different order.

This follows "All of this has to end" and "Superman is Dead"

Will Justin and Brian have to spend New Year's Eve apart?  One-shot in celebration of the new year.

Brian and Justin understand each other. The rest of the world does not, even though many of them think that they do.

This one-shot, set long after Justin has moved to New  York, shows that things in the lives of those around us are not always what they seem.

With open arms, reviews are welcomed, greatly appreciated and promptly answered!! (even if in the form of constructive criticism)

Ianto tries to get back at Jack when he finds out Jack has been 'spying' on him via CCTV, but as usual, it doesn't quite go to plan.

Thank you to foreverbm on LJ for the banner!

Post-513 porn. Brian attends the grand opening of Justin's West Coast gallery. Warning: RAW sex

There's a new waiter at the Liberty Diner, Justin, a young man who just got his art degree.  He's 23 and has been around the block, but he's never met anyone like 29 year old Brian.  Who will pursue who and how will their lives be affected?  This is an AU to the series as the timeline is moved up for Justin.

Brian's thoughts at his wedding...

OK, This is a Glee/Queer as Folk crossover Song Fic! More strangeness from my warped brain! Unless you have been living in a cave, or are a rabid Glee hater (umm, what’s wrong with you?) You probably heard the following song sung by Rachel on her Prom night (second season). But what if…?

No I didn't just write this... I've had it for a while... and while I guess we're not supposed to post RPS's here... they have a category, so what the hell. 

This is a one-shot, stand-alone RPS about Gale and Randy and I how I see their relationship taking place, if it were real and happened. 

No offense is meant to any actor or person... I love them all to death, they are amazing people with outstanding talent and this is my honoring what I hope is real. 

Gapfiller for episode 114. 

What does Justin ask for his birthday? We all want to know... well, here's the answer, according to me.

PWP. Justin/Brian alternating POV. 

We all knew Justin was a top, well here's the start of that... and a threesome is involved. Erotic fun is had by all, of course! Join our favorite men in this steamy tail of gay sex. 

Stand-alone-ish. Meaning it is a stand alone story... but if you want a sequal, read Be Careful What You Wish For (coming soon). 

Reviews are always welcome.

A/N: Thank you to my wonderful banner creater Jackie Mag... I accidently had this on Be Careful What You Wish For... it kind of fits, but it was meant for this one. Thanks D for your brilliance! :)

Story Summary: Brian tries to deal with issues of his past and how they are affecting his life now.

***Open Letter to Readers Posted!*

Spoilers: A chapter(s) reference to when Justin le** him for Ethan and other events throughout the series.

Out-of-Canon/What-If: In this story, Brian's father knew Brian was gay when Brian was in high school (if not before).  In later chapters, I may need him to be alive to have a confrontation with Brian, so for now I'll say he is not explicitly dead.

Justin comes back to Brian after discovering what's really important... :)
