Brian knocked on the door and waited. He frowned when he saw a guy opening the door. “Who are you?” Brian asked. “Hey, Brian.” Ethan said. “Come on in. Justin is waiting for you.” “Okay.” Brian said going in. “Where is he?” “Taking a shower. He just went in.” Ethan said. Brian nodded. “I’ll go tell him that I’m here.” Brian said and started going up the stairs. Brian stopped and turned around. “Who are you?” Brian asked again. “I’m Ethan.” Ethan said smiling. Brian nodded slowly and then turned back around and finished going up to the second floor. “Justin.” Brian said. “Baby.” Justin said smiling. “I’ll be out in a minute.” “I met Ethan.” Brian said. “Right.” Justin said and he could tell that Brian was upset. “What is he doing here?” Brian asked. “He’s visiting.” Justin said. “He’s not staying here, is he?” Brian asked worried. “Of course not baby.” Justin assured him. “He has his own loft.” Brian nodded. “He a violinist, you know. He is pretty good.” Justin said. Brian nodded again. “He invited us to the diner. I think the guys are going there too.” Justin told him. Brian frowned and shrugged. “I’ll just go downstairs and keep him company.” Brian said. “Or strangle him.” Brian muttered to himself. “What?” Justin asked. “Nothing.” “Brian.” Justin said. “What?” Brian asked turning around before he was completely out of the bathroom. “I love you and only you.” Justin assured him. Brian smiled from ear to ear. “I love you too.” Brian said. Brian went back and sat with Ethan in the living room. “So.” Brian said. “How long are you staying?” *** Matthew walked up to Brian and sat next to him. “Are you okay?” Matthew asked. Brian muttered something and kept his head down on the table. “What?” “I said, I’m perfectly fine.” Brian hissed. “Right.” Matthew said. “So, how you been?” Brian frowned. “You can tell me.” Matthew said. “Justin’s ex is back in town.” Brian said. “So?” Matthew asked. “They still talk. A week ago I found Ethan at his apartment and Justin was in the shower.” “So?” Matthew asked again. “He still trusts him like that.” Brian said frowning. Matthew smirked. “I can’t believe you are jealous. You are smart, funny, you have a great personality and you are hot, Brian.” Matthew said. “You have nothing to worry about. Justin is crazy about you. Is this guy hotter than you? Is that why you are worried?” “No.” Brian said. “But they have history.” “And yes Justin is with you, so what do you worry about?” Matthew asked. Brian shrugged. “I don’t know.” Brian said. “Justin spends a lot of time with him. He says they are just catching up.” “I see.” Matthew said. “What should I do?” Brian asked. “Make him jealous.” Matthew said. “How?” Brian asked. “With me.” Matthew said. Brian frowned. “You don’t have to actually be with me. You can disappear anywhere you want. Hide at your house or go to the library and when he asks you where you were, you say you were with me. Or you can call me a lot and talk about me every opportunity you get.” Matthew told him smirking. Brian bit his lower lip. “They are going to Babylon on Friday. I can start talking about you, I guess.” Brian said. “Justin’s taking me with them.” “I can go.” Matthew said. “Matt, I don’t want you to…to think of this as anything more. You are my friend.” “Brian, relax.” Matthew said. “I am in love with someone else. I have been even before I got here. When I said I wanted to fuck you, that’s all I really wanted. And if it didn’t happen, I’m not going to go psycho on you, promise.” “You are in love?” Brian asked. Matthew nodded and pulled out his wallet. Then he showed a picture to Brian. “That’s a girl.” Brian pointed out. “Yeah. Jackie.” Matthew said smiling like a fool and Brian saw it. “You are bi.” Matthew shrugged as he put the picture back on its place. “I’m not anything. I’m Matthew Spencer and when I meet someone and I like them, it’s not because they are a boy or a girl, but because they are likeable on the inside.” Brian smiled at that. “So, are we going to make Justin jealous?” Matthew asked smiling with a raised brow. Brian smirked and nodded. He hadn’t talk to Matthew in a long time. And apparently he was ready to continue their friendship. *** Brian kissed Justin on the neck as he was talking to Ethan. Ethan rolled his eyes and wished the teen would just leave them alone. “Hey, Brian.” Matthew said. Brian smiled at Matthew. “Hey, Matthew.” Brian said. “You made it.” “Yeah.” Matthew said. “Do you want to go dancing?” “Sure.” Brian told him. Brian left with Matthew to the dance floor. Ethan was so fucking happy. He had missed Justin so much and he wanted to have some time alone with the blond. “Isn’t that the kid that got a little out of hand with Brian?” Michael asked. “He said that was a misunderstanding.” Justin said looking at Brian and Matthew. “So, do you want to dance?” Ethan asked. “Not right now.” Justin said turning around and going to the bar. “Fuck.” Ethan hissed. “What?” Michael asked. “Nothing.” Ethan told him. “What are you planning?” Michael asked. Ethan rolled his eyes. “Ethan.” Michael said. “I can’t get Justin out of my mind.” Ethan said. “So you are obsessed.” Michael pointed out. “More like passionate.” Ethan said smirking. Michael took a deep breath and shook his head. “Leave it alone.” Michael said. “Come on. You know that Brian is still young. He is going to want to be with other guys. He will find someone else and leave Justin. I think he already has.” Ethan said looking at Michael. Michael glared at Ethan. He had always been protective of Ethan. He hated people talking about his best friend, but he was starting to see a new side to Ethan and he didn’t like it one bit. “Well, knowing Brian, he is probably trying to make Justin jealous. And guess what?” “What?” Ethan asked getting pissed. “It’s working.” Michael said before he left to go get Ben. Ethan turned around to look for Justin, but the blond was not at the bar anymore. He turned to the dance floor and saw Justin dancing behind Brian as Brian danced with Matthew. *** “So what do you think you are doing?” Justin asked Brian once Matthew had left for the restroom. “What?” Brian asked turning around. “Don’t play dumb.” Justin said and frowned. “Do you like him?” “He’s okay.” Brian said. “Right.” Justin said. “Do you want to fuck him?” Brian stopped dancing and stared at Justin. “I don’t know. Do you want to fuck Ethan?” Brian asked. “Fuck.” Justin hissed. “Don’t do this.” “Do you? All you do is talk about him lately. First, you don’t want to and now you can’t stop.” Brian said. Justin took a deep breath. “You were the one that wanted to know about Ethan.” Justin said. “And you got mad because I didn’t talk about him and now you are mad because I do.” Brian sighed. “I’m going home.” Brian said. “How?” Justin asked. “Matthew has a car. I’ll tell him to take me.” Brian said. “Brian, don’t.” Justin said. Brian stopped and looked back at Justin. “I’ll take you home. I’ll take us home.” Justin said. Brian smiled. “I’ll talk to Ethan too. I know that he has been…” Justin said trying to find the right words. “Trying to get in your pants.” Brian provided. Justin smirked and nodded. “I knew it.” Brian hissed. “I’m going to kill him.” Justin rolled his eyes. “Come on. Let’s go home.” Justin said. “I have to tell Matthew that I am leaving.” Brian said. Justin frowned. “I don’t want to fuck him.” Brian said. “Okay, maybe I do. But I won’t. I’m learning from my mistakes.” Justin smiled and separated from Brian to say goodbye to the guys. *** Justin groaned as he moved and picked the phone up. “I promise, I will have him there in an hour.” Justin said on the phone. “What?” Ethan asked. “Oh, Ethan.” Justin said. “I thought you were Brandon.” Brian opened his eyes and frowned. He watched Justin who was talking on the phone with his eyes closed. “Oh.” Ethan said. “So what are you doing? I thought you would want to come for breakfast at the diner.” Justin was going to answer, but Brian took the phone away from him and hung up. “What are you doing?” Justin asked. The phone rang again and Brian answered. “Yeah?” Brian asked and waited. “I think I hung up by mistake.” Ethan said. “No. It was me.” Brian said. “I’m trying to fuck my boyfriend and I can’t have him distracted. He’ll call you later.” Brian hung up again and smiled at the blond. Justin started laughing. “You have a mean streak in you.” Justin said. Brian shrugged as he put the phone on its cradle. He started to attack Justin’s neck. Justin smiled and turned them around. “Who says you are fucking me?” Justin asked. Brian smirked. “I’m versatile. Either way is okay for me.” Brian told him. Justin laughed and kissed Brian. He reached for the lube and a condom. Brian wrapped his legs around Justin’s hips and moaned as Justin’s fingers prepared him. “Do you like it baby?” Justin asked. Brian just nodded. “I love you, Justin.” Brian told him. “I know baby.” Justin said adding a second finger. “No. I mean I love you. I really…really do.” Brian said. “No matter what happens, I will always love you.” Justin smiled. “I’m never…going to…love anyone like I do you.” Brian told the blond. “God, just…make love to me…please!” “You are getting mushy on me.” Justin pulled his fingers away and donned on a condom. Brian smiled. “You like me that way.” Brian gasped out. Justin positioned his cock at the quivering hole. He pushed inside slowly until he was fully embedded in Brian. “Yeah. I like you that way.” Justin assured him and kissed the brunet. *** “He’s driving me insane.” Brian said. “I remembered him. He was always bothering me. Always telling me that Justin and I weren’t going to last. But I always managed to piss him off and he would leave.” Matthew and Lindsay laughed. “I imagine.” Lindsay said. “You are very good at pissing people off.” “It’s like he knows what we are doing.” Brian said. “Last night, Justin was letting me top him and then Ethan called him on the cell. So we had to stop and then Justin talked to him for a while before we could go back to fucking. Then he called again in the middle of it. My god! And when we go out, he is always there; at the diner, at Deb’s, at Mikey’s. I hate him.” “Well, at least you know that Justin doesn’t want to be with him.” Melanie pointed out. Brian smiled and nodded. “What did Justin say about Matthew?” Lindsay asked. “I told him that I was just trying to make him jealous.” Brian said. “He was pissed and told me not to do it again, that he would punish me. I told him he was jealous and he said he wasn’t. He showed me differently.” Matthew and Joy smirked while the girls just laughed. “I like it when he is jealous.” Brian said smirking. “He gets like extra horny.” Melanie groaned and rolled her eyes. The others just laughed. “Then I gave him the best blow job ever and he admitted he was.” Brian told them. Lindsay smiled. “I’m happy for you.” Matthew said. “Guys, I want you to meet my girlfriend. She is coming here next month.” “Cool.” Joy said. “Let’s see who is crazy enough to be with you.” Matthew smiled at her. He knew she was kidding. Thank god they were all friends now. He had said sorry to Brian and Melanie had said sorry to him, but that she wouldn’t hesitate on beating his ass if he did anything like that again. Matthew believed her. “How is it fucking a girl?” Brian asked Matthew. “Great.” Matthew said. “Amazing.” Melanie and Lindsay said at the same time. Brian smirked. “It’s a whole new experience. Want to try it out.” Joy asked as she put her arms around the brunet. “Eww, Joy. Get away from me.” Brian told her. Matthew, Lindsay and Melanie just laughed. *** Justin was leaning against the counter talking to Michael. He smiled when Brian came in. Brian saw Justin and walked directly to him. “Hey.” Brian said. “Hey, yourself.” Justin said smiling. “What are you doing here?” Brian asked. Michael rolled his eyes. “I’m going to be in my office.” Michael said. “There is so much sappiness here that I can’t stand it.” Justin looked at Michael and winked at him before he smiled and then turned his attention back to Brian. Brian was smirking. “I wanted to see you.” Justin said. “Oh, really.” Brian said. Justin nodded. “What do you say, you come with me?” Justin asked. Brian arched a brow and smiled. “You are kidnapping me?” Brian asked. Justin smirked and nodded. Brian smiled, wanting to know already where Justin was taking him. Just then the door opened and two boys came in to look at the comics. Ethan was walking in behind them. “Justin.” Ethan said. “What are you doing here?” “He’s talking to me. Can’t you see?” Brian asked. Ethan nodded. “Ethan.” Michael said. “What are you doing here?” “I thought we could go have lunch.” Ethan said. “I can’t leave the store alone.” Michael said. Ethan looked at Brian and then back at Michael. “I thought that’s what your employees were for.” Ethan said. “Brian is leaving.” Michael said. Ethan looked at Justin and Brian. “Don’t tell me, some kind of picnic or some other spur of the moment thing.” Ethan said. Justin glared at him. “I remember when you used to come to me for those.” Ethan said to Justin. Brian frowned. “And yet we never went to the movies, or had a romantic walk, or anything for that matter. All we did was fuck.” Justin spat out. “And that I can get anywhere.” Ethan frowned. “Nothing like me, Sunshine.” Ethan said. “No, of course not.” Justin said. “I have Brian now. That is so much better.” Ethan frowned. “Who are you kidding?” Ethan asked. “Guys.” Michael said. “You are scaring my clients.” Brian looked at the two teenagers who were staring at them. “Maybe we should go now.” Brian said. “Yeah.” Ethan said. “Enjoy it while you can.” Brian glared at him. “You are just fucking jealous.” Brian hissed. “Why?” Ethan asked. “Soon enough, he will come back to me.” Justin was fuming now. “Fuck you, Ethan. I don’t want you anymore.” Justin said. “I’m not going to waste my time trying to explain it to you.” Ethan shrugged. “That is bullshit and you know it. If he wasn’t here, you would still be with me.” Ethan hissed. “Fuck off, Ethan.” Justin yelled. “You know it’s true. God, you might even be with him for pity.” Ethan spat out. “If he had bled to death, you would still be giving your ass to me!” Ethan screamed. Michael opened his eyes wide. Brian took a step back and Justin punched Ethan. “No. I said no to you. I told you that I was in love with Brian. If he had died the answer would have still been no. I hate you so fucking much, Ethan.” Brian looked at Justin with teary eyes. “It’s not true, baby. I choose you way before anything happened to you.” Justin said. Brian nodded, believing his boyfriend and not the scum bag that was currently on the floor. “Let’s go.” Justin said, grabbing Brian’s hand. Michael walked over to Ethan who was on the floor and helped him up. He cleaned Ethan’s blood and made sure that Ethan was okay. “Are you alright?” Michael asked. Ethan nodded. “Good. Now, get the fuck out of my store and don’t come back.” Michael hissed. Ethan opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came to mind. He closed his eyes briefly and left.
