I am 22 and completely alone except I have Daphne, she's my friend but busy with her own life. By alone I mean I have no family or lover. I have to face surgery alone and let me tell you surgery is scary enough but to face it alone is a whole other story, which I never honestly thought I would have to face. It’s funny how you always think that your mom or sister will be there for you but then that fairy tale is taking away with one simple phone call and it kills you and then you feel a pain that you honestly never thought was possible. It was a year ago my Mom and Molly were in Boston checking out College’s when my Mom's brakes went on her car and they hit a wall. My Mom died instantly but Molly managed to survive until I got there…. Seeing her with all those machines and tubes was so surreal and all I could do was hold her hand. I remember here saying , "Jus, make sure to find your frog prince.” Then I told her I loved her and then she died as I held her. I lost my sister, my best friend and my mother. I was 21 and I felt like I was 10. I didn’t know how to act I couldn’t even begin to focus. I think a part of me died that day. I came back and moved in with Daphne. I was slowly recovering and eventually Daphne convinced me that I need to start going out and making friends. That's when I met Ethan and he was a really sweet guy, but kind of strange. I mean like he was in love with his violin, like I love my art but he was scary in love with his violin. He asked me out and I told him that I didn’t have feelings for him more than a friend. Then one day when he kissed me, I was sort of imagining Brian, and before I knew it we started going out. Of course that was the beginning of the end as I never really stopped loving Brian. Daph is my only family I have left and she has been great. I know she is going to go totally mother hen on me when I tell her about the surgery and then she is going to get totally crazy when I tell her that Brian is going to be my Doctor. She always said we were meant to be but I told her she was full of shit. "Justin, Hello?" "Oh, Daphne, when did you get home?" "Like 15 minutes ago and I have been trying to get hold of you, where did you go?" "No where, just went for a walk, I was thinking." "About what and oh, how did your appointment go?" "I was thinking about my Mom and Molly." "Oh, I’m sorry, you OK?" "Its fine, my appointment didn’t go to well…" "Omg, what’s wrong?" "Dr. Kinney said that I have to have surgery again because the first one didn’t work properly." "What the fuck, you have to suffer again because those fuckers messed up and Dr. Kinney acts all superior and blames you…" "Daph, he didn’t do anything…trust me." "Well, we will see when I’m done with Dr. Kin… wait didn’t you say that Brian's last name was Kinney?" "Um, well, yes." "So, you mean to tell me that you saw Brian today, the guy you have been moping around the apartment for almost two years over, the guy you are so in love with that you can’t even look at any other guys, that Brian Kinney?" "Umm, yes." With that Daphne lets out a very girl squeal. "OMG, tell me everything, did he look hot, sexy like everything you've dreamt about?" Without even taking a breath Daphne continues. "Did you find out what happened two years ago?" "Slow down and I will tell you everything." As I listen to Justin tell me everything that happened with that Dr. Brian Kinney, I can’t help but wonder and hope a little that they will be able to work out all their problems. They belong together but then again they are both stubborn as hell, at least Justin is. I some times think that Justin honestly feels that he isn’t meant to be happy, with everything that has happened in his life. I mean if you think about it, at 22 he has lost more people in his life the most people do in there entire lives. I really try to be there for him but I know I’m not all that he needs, he wants. He needs someone to love him in ways that I can’t. As a lover, a friend and in so many other ways. I think I may have to have a talk to a certain Doctor.   ~Allegany General~ Daphne makes her way to Brian's secretary Cynthia. "Hello, can I help you with something?" "Yes, I need to speak with Dr. Kinney; it’s concerning one of his patients." "Which patient would that be?" "Justin Taylor... I know he may be busy but could you just tell him it’s important please?" Daphne smiles her sweetest smile. "Sure, I have a feeling your going to give him a little hell." "You never know." Daphne responds with a chuckle. "Hold on." Cynthia contacts Brian on her intercom. "Brian, there is some here to see you regarding your patient Justin Taylor." Cynthia has a cheeky grin as she talks to Brian. "Okay I will bye." "Go right in." "Thank you." Daphne makes her way to Dr. Kinney's office, wondering how much this lady knows about Justin and Brian. Brian I sit behind my desk waiting for this person who is concerned about Justin. I honestly was hoping that blonde hair would come through my door but instead it is a brunette with curly hair that comes walking in and I must say that she is cute for a girl. Before I can even introduce myself she just sits down in front of me with a hell of a lot of self confidence. "Hi, I’m Daphne. I’m Justin’s best friend." "I’m Br…" "I know who you are; you’re the illustrious Brian Kinney, Doctor, heartbreaker and all around good guy." "What the fuck, heartbreaker, I never broke anyone’s heart." Well except maybe my own. "Right, that's what you think. I’m here to tell you that you only have one shot at this and if you fuck this up you will regret it." Without giving Brian the chance to respond, Daphne begins to get up and leave and then over her shoulder she says; "Good bye Mr. Kinney."
