Hello Kim and Michal!
I love that Justin strong and sure of himself, knowing exactly what he wants. Brian will be in serious trouble to deal with this new twink. Justin will not accept the bullshit Brian so easily (at least, that's what I think). Gus is very sweet. I love how you are portraying Gus.
Great story!
A hug! Fatima.

Go Justin! Love, love, love a strong blond! TAG
Author's Response: Hi, Tag! Yeah, this Justin isn't putting up with much bullshit, is he? LOL! So glad you're enjoying it, my friend. Thanks for the comments and for reading. *Hugs* ~Michal and Kim

Go Justin!!! Loved it

Noo! Why are you so cruel teasing readers like this!! The story was updated today without new chapter!
Anticipation is killing me!!
p.s. At last I see tough Justin!! Thanks, you' re great!
Author's Response: Hi, Mary! So sorry about the confusion - it was totally unintentional. We've both thrilled that you're enjoying the story, and promise to get another chapter up very soon. (Just not THAT soon - LOL!). Thanks for your understanding. Michal and I both thought it was important we explained what had happened so we didn't confuse everyone.:) Thanks for taking the time to comment, though, and we both hope you'll continue to enjoy the story. And yes, something tells me that Justin will continue to be portrayed as a very strong character in this story. *Hugs* ~Kim and Michal

I expected 3 chapter, but it is not.
great story
Author's Response: Sorry about that. Michal posted a chapter here that belonged to another story. Sorry for the confusion. ~Kim

Yes tiger, go for it. LOL. Looks like Justin is none to be trifled with.
*ggg*
And it seems like Brian is a little bit smitten by Justin and Justin by Brian too!
Poor Gus, but I hope he will get over it!
Can't wait for more!
This is a great collaboration, Kim and Michal!!!!
Hugs, Meggi
Author's Response: LOL! Yes, Michal loves to make Justin a more dominant character in her stories, and I have a feeling he is going to more than hold his own in this story! I do think he will be in for some surprises, though, and not just when he discovers who Gus's father is. It will be interesting to see what lengths Brian will go to - or NOT go to - out of love for his son. Thanks again, Meggi! So glad that you like this one. *Hugs* ~Michal and Kim

"Well, why don't we see if I punch like a chick, too?"
The holiday season and work schedule is kicking my behind, but I had to get this review in. You have a Justin after my own heart. I love this bad-ass Justin. This second chapter is even better than the first.
Please update soon!
Author's Response: Hi, Sandra - It's Kim.:) I certainly know THAT feeling! I sympathize.:) Both Michal and I are very honored that you took time out to read and review and am enjoying this 'bad-ass' Justin. Michal is promising a continuation of that, too, so I hope you'll continue to enjoy it.:) So glad that you like this! We'll get it updated again very soon. Thanks for all the support, my friend. *Hugs* ~Michal (StarShine-Green) and Kim (Predec2)

wow!! loved that ending. so glad justin knocked that ass down a few pegs, though i think he might want to control his temper if he wants to keep his scholarship. i'm wondering if brian has a conference with gus's teacher that same day, will he be running into a certain gorgeous blond? can't wait for the next chapter.
Author's Response: Hello, my dear friend.:) You've so kind to review this. This is probably the only story you haven't seen first - ha! Thanks so much. I'm glad that you're enjoying it. You have a good point about the scholarship, BTW; that might tone him down (just a bit - LOL!). Not sure how long Michal will drag out the meeting between father and Justin, but I'm sure it's going to be quite interesting. Talk to you soon. *Hugs* ~Kim and Michal.:)

Nice little AU fic for B/J fans. I'm sorry, but I'm still waiting for the next chapter in Wild Stallion and your other stories. It's great that you're helping out another writer, though. Keep up the good work.
- Jackie
Author's Response: Hi, Dear - Sigh - I know; I probably shouldn't be spending extra time (that I don't have!) doing that. But I wanted to help Michal, and she had an intriguing story that I couldn't resist, so here I am. I certainly haven't forgotten my other stories, though. They may be a little slower in coming this month, though, since I signed up for the QAF fan fiction Christmas exchange on LJ, which means I have to have a completed story by the end of the month. As wordy as I am that is quite a challenge! But it's coming along. I WILL update all of my stories, though, and "Stallion" is next on the docket, so it won't be too long in coming.
Thank you for reading and for the comments. I'm glad you're anticipating the updates. Hope you have a nice Christmas! *Hugs* ~Kim

Oh wow we do have an interesting situation brewing here, sadly though I suspect our sweet Gus may be hurt for a time. I think as satisfying as the smack to the mouth of the homophobic jock was it is going to have serious repercussions for Gus and Justin. I am enjoying this fic
Author's Response: Hi, Chris! I'm going to answer for Michal and me.:) Thank you as always for reading and commenting, my friend. And yes, I do suspect somewhere along the line there will be some hurt feelings. But the way Michal is heading (it's her plot and I'm basically 'prettying it up' so to speak) there may just be some surprises along the way. It's going to be an interesting dynamic here pitting Brian's love for his son versus his feelings for Justin and vice versa. It should be an interesting ride! Hope you'll continue to enjoy it. We'll get this updated again soon. Thanks again! *Hugs* ~Michal (Star-Shine Green) and Kim (Predec2)

Kim are you and Michal writing this story together? I think you were the beta on the other three fics Michal wrote or is writing but this one has a different style to it. Michal has a style that is very distinctive where so much is conveyed in one chapter and most of them are only just over 1000 words. Whereas your style is to tease us for chapters so the anticipation builds and they are usually much longer chapters. I love both styles but this looks like a combined effort. I’m not criticising here I’m just making an observation and would really like my curiosity satisfied. Now on with the review. Yay for Justin, I so did not expect that. Gus needs a smack for lying to Brian saying he did nothing but Justin should not be the provider of that smack. LOL As soon as he was granted sovereignty from his parents; does this mean emancipated? I would have thought if he was emancipated there would be no need to leave the house in the middle of the night as his parents would know he didn’t want to be there. I’m a little confused, can you please clear this up of me. Please don’t focus on my confusing as a negative comment as you both know I love your writing but I would like to understand what has provoked Justin to leave the way he did. Please hurry back and I promise to make the next review less than 100 words. LOL
Cheers
Author's Response: Hi, Flossee (It's Kim this time!). Don't apologize for such a thoughtful review and for your interest! You're very astute - I can tell that you have been reading both of our stories, because your observations are very accurate about our writing styles. Yes, Michal's and mine are very different. She gets right to the point, where I go the long way around - LOL!
To answer your question, Michal sent me the first chapter to this and I added about 2,000 more words to it. I asked her if she was okay with me 'embellishing' it and she said yes. The basic plot of hers is the same, but as you have guessed I flesh it out more after she sends it to me and I offer some suggestions on where to go with the story, etc., and then she gives me the okay to post it So it is definitely a combined effort here.:)
I may have used the wrong word (sovereignty vs. emancipation) with Justin. I was mainly just trying to say that he didn't feel the need to stick around anymore once he got the okay to be on his own, and he couldn't get out of that house fast enough. I saw him as leaving in the early morning hours rather than the middle of the night. And I'm not sure if the story will focus much more on that aspect the way that Michal is heading with the plot, though.
Be assured, however, that Michal likes to portray Justin as more of a 'bad boy' type, so I don't think he's going to slink away from a fight, nor would I want him to, actually.
Hope that helps! Feel free to PM me, too, with any other questions. And thanks so much for all the interest. You can write as long a review as you want! *Hugs* ~Kim (and Michal)

can't believe Justin threw one! way to go Justin!
poor Gus.............
really really loving it!!!
Author's Response: Hello, my friend - I'm answering for Michal and me.:) Thanks for reading and commenting on this latest chapter; so glad that you are enjoying it. Michal pretty much loves to feature a 'bad-ass' Justin in her story plots, so I have a strong suspicion that he can more than hold his own against any homophobic types that come his way in this story. Not sure if the principal at St. James will appreciate it, though - ha! But something tells me that GUS just might.;)
Speaking of which, as you can probably surmise there will be some hurt feelings bubbling to the surface, but you just might be surprised what happens along the way. I hope you will stay tuned. We'll get this updated again very soon. Thank you again for checking this one out and for the feedback; it is greatly appreciated! *Hugs* ~Michael (StarShine-Green) and Kim (Predec2)

Way to go Sunshine haha......kickin ass and taking names.
Justin is just starting to notice the physical similarities between Gus and Brian, I wonder when he'll be able to put two and two together.
Can't wait for the next chapter :) JP
Author's Response:
Hi, Tamara! We don't think Justin's going to like this new kid, do you? Ha! We're so happy you're enjoying the story! Therre's a lot of emotions that will be stirred up in this one before it's all over with. Thanks so much for reading and commenting; it'll be updated again very soon. *Hugs* ~Michal (StarShine-Green) and Kim (Predec2)
BTW - I also make Justin a bad ass in my stories.;) ~Michal

Yeah badass!justin. I like when Justin does not take shit. Great chapter. Thank you :)
Author's Response:
Hi, Dear - thanks for reading and for the comments! Yes, Owen and Justin are definitely NOT going to be 'best buds,' are they? LOL! So glad that you like our 'bad boy' in this one. We'll get this updated again very soon. Thanks again! *Hugs* ~Michal (StarShine-Green) and Kim (Predec2)
**P.S. - I love to put a bad-ass Justin in my stories! ~Michal~
Reviewer: Kate (Anonymous) · Date: December 10, 2012 02:16 AM · On: Don't Call Me A Chick!
I'm enjoying this. Btw, I'm one who wouldn't have read the story with out your FYI spoiler, so thanks for that. Keep writing quickly!
Author's Response: Hi, Kate! Thank you for reading and for the comments. It's funny - there seems to be two camps on whether or not readers wanted Justin and Gus to become physically intimate, but we figured there would be some who would look at it and go 'eww' if Brian and Justin wound up together afterward, so it was thought that little disclaimer might be necessary. We've very happy to hear that you are enjoying this story so far; it promises to have a lot of angst along the way, but it's shaping up to be very a interesting drama regarding a father's love for his son - and Gus's love for his father.
Thanks again for your interest and for taking the time to review; it is greatly appreciated. We'll get this updated again very soon. *Hugs* ~Michael (StarShine-Green) and Kim (Predec2)
