OH MY GOSH!!!! Loved it!!!

When I first saw this chapter published, my heart literally stopped! I was waiting so much for it. This story is undoubtedly incredible, I savor every line, every word of it. I think it’s fantastic that you two decided to write it together – a story of two great authors just couldn’t be anything but a masterpiece. I can’t get enough of it – especially now, when all angst began.

It’s funny, in a way, how quickly my opinion changes. Before I started reading, I was so sure that no matter what, Justin shouldn’t forgive Brian in this chapter – his words that night were *very* hurtful, they are difficult to forgive and forget. But… when I read everything from Brian’s POV, he suddenly seemed so vulnerable to me, so unsure of himself. He really regretted what he did, so I couldn’t find any anger in me left. I was dreading now what Justin will say, will he be understanding, or too overwhelmed with emotions… I wouldn’t have blamed him – I’m sure Brian wouldn’t too.

Ha, Sofia is so funny, I loved her in that short episode! Brian is lucky to have her :)

I’m glad Justin didn’t use this opportunity with Gus… no matter how much he was hurting. Gus shouldn’t have tried anything, but I understand him – and I admire him, because he is a great friend. I’d even say, he is a better friend to Justin than Brian is in most cases.

Oh… so Brian now knows Gus shared a kiss with the guy he likes so much. Oops, I doubt his reaction is going to be nice when he finally adds two and two. Considering how jealous he usually is…

I hope fervently that no matter what, Gus will not turn against Brian in this Lindsay shit. They should unite – at least temporarily, to fight her. What an impossible, disgusting woman… she is really revolting here. I can’t believe her audacity!

The make up scene was fantastic! You made it incredible, just what I hoped to see – Justin didn’t forgive Brian without a fight, and when he did, it was the sweetest moment of reconciliation ever. I loved it. However, one Justin’s phrase really disturbs me… --- but if you ever do anything like this again - if you ever shut me out again or hurt me like you did this time... ---  - I have a terrible feeling that something like this might happen very soon. Brian’s reaction just *can’t* be good or calm to news like that… and what will he do? It’s scary to even imagine. But hurt and almost destroyed once again, will Justin forgive him the second time? If things go this way, it will be much more difficult that it was here – and it wasn’t easy either.

Tristan is my big soothing prize! I have all hopes that Gus will turn to him once this nightmare with Big Revelation is finally over… what a way to learn the truth!! I’m shocked. It’s even worse that I thought before… I’m *so* happy the next chapter will be published soon! I can’t wait! Major angst is scary, yet amazing, especially written as brilliantly as you do it. Thank you, girls!

Hi, Katrin! As always, your very thoughtful comments both amaze and overwhelm Mica and me in the amount of time and care you put into them.  Thank you doesn't seem like quite enough, but I want you to know how much we do appreciate each and every one.  Yes, what a horrible way to find out just who Gus's father is involved with!  And the next chapter, which will be posted very soon, will show how much hurt is produced from this.  The boys will be torn apart in a way that none of them imagine (how's that for a terrible teaser?). 

And yes, if Justin had encouraged Gus, that would have been terrible.  I, too, wonder how Brian is going to feel about Gus kissing him, since Gus did not reveal how brief and relatively innocent it was.  And I am glad that you were happy with the way the boys made up and how Brian received forgiveness from Justin, because there WERE a lot of horrid things said to him that night.

We now have a big mess to unravel here!!  Thank you as always for the wonderful feedback, Katrin!  This WILL be updated soon - Mica sent me the next chapter and I'm working on my part of it right now.  *Hugs*  ~Mica and Kim

Seriously? Come on! Continued and soon! Please, please! Such an end ... OMG. But beautiful chapter. Thanks.

Author's Response:

Hello, Saskya!  I know, I know - horrible cliffhanger!  Obviously Michal and I will be writing a very angst-filled chapter coming up, now that the secret is finally out in the open.  I believe she has started the outline for the next chapter, so I'm hopeful we can update the next one a lot faster than this one.  Thanks for reading and for the comments, Saskya!  It is greatly appreciated.  *Hugs*  ~Kim and Michal

I am sorry for not reviewing sooner. I didn't even see this new chapter here. I guess some how I missed it. This chapter was so good-another cliff hanger. The s--t is going to finally hit the proverbial fan.=, can't wait for that. lol

Author's Response:

Hi, lindc - no need to apologize; now I feel like I shamed you into it - LOL!  Thank you, though, for reading and commenting, my friend. Michal and I do appreciate that. And yes, next chapter obviously will be full of angst now and a lot of pain, at least initially.  I just posted the next chapter of the challenge story, BTW; I hope you continue to enjoy that one as well.  Hope you're able to get a little rest along the way, too.;)  Tell everyone I send them my best.  *Hugs*  ~Kim and Michal

Reviewer: Lyndsey (Anonymous) · Date: August 12, 2013 08:24 PM · On: Here Comes the Boom!

I'm confused as to how Justin didn't connect the dots when he learned Brian's son's name is Gus. It's not as if that's a super common name these days.

Aside from that, I love this story.

Author's Response:

Hi, Lyndsey - thank you for reading and for the comments.  As far as I know, Michal and I have been careful NOT to divulge Brian's son's name during the story.  Hopefully we did that, but if you discovered it somewhere before this I'd appreciate you pointing it out where it is.  We intentionally sought never to bring up his name anywhere when Brian and Justin were together, just because of that, but we could have slipped up and not realized it.  So if you HAVE seen it, please let us know so we can correct it.

We're glad, though, that it hasn't detracted too much from the story. Thank you for letting us know that you are enjoying it nonetheless.  We are already beginning the next part of this, so the next update should be quicker than this one was. *Hugs*  ~Kim and Michal

The sh*t just hit the fan!  Damn, this could go in many directions.  Great chapter!

Sorry, had emergency oral surgery yesterday, not as eloquent as I would like to be.  Really enjoy this story and looking for the next update.

All the best,

Laura

Author's Response:

Hi, Laura!  I see you're all caught up now, and yes, a ton of angst coming up shortly.  How will everyone handle this now? And will it have a bearing on Lindsay's custody bid?  I imagine it won't help things any.  Obviously a lot of people are going to be shocked - and hurt - coming up.  Angst alert multiplied! 

We'll work on getting this updated just as soon as we can. Thank you for all the comments, Laura.  I hope you get to feeling better very soon; I can just imagine how uncomfortable that was.  BTW - hope you might be up to writing a summer challenge one-shot - deadline's been extended to 8/25 (hint, hint...). *Hugs* ~Kim

OMG! This is the chapter I am waiting for, but shocks...Kim...Sweetie kindly tell Michal to update the soonest, please… I beg!!! I don't want to wait so long for the next chapter. It will be killing me every day waiting what will happen next. This is it!!! It is out in the open, and what a perfect revelation, caught in the act! I was holding my breath when I was reading that part. Perfectly Done!!! {{{Hugs}}}

Author's Response:

Hi, Cindy! So good to hear from you, and to know that you're still reading. Sorry about the longer-than-normal delay - Michal has some RL issues going on, and I just got back from seeing Randy in his new play, so we're running somewhat behind. But I think we will be able to update sooner next time. I know we left it in a horrible spot! But I also knew the chapter would be way too long if we tried to extend it beyond where it ended up, and we wanted to get that update posted as soon as possible.

Obviously there's a lot more angst coming up here! What in the world will Brian do now?  Give up Gus to Lindsay or give up Justin?  Neither one is a great alternative.  But we DO have a plan up our sleeves eventually to make everyone happy again.

Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to comment, Cindy!  We both really appreciate that.  *Hugs*  ~Kim

talk about a dropping bomb!

I guess this is where the commercial break would have been if this was a series.

Love it!

Author's Response:

Lol! Well, that would have certainly made them tune back in hopefully.;)

Brian's love for his son - and for Justin - is about to be tested in a big way coming up. 

So glad that you're enjoying our story; thank you for taking the time to let us know. We will get this story updated again soon.  *Hugs* ~Michal and Kim

Reviewer: pacagirl (Signed) · Date: August 10, 2013 03:25 AM · On: Here Comes the Boom!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know if I love you or "hate" you right now. This chapter was so good but I need more. I can't wait to read next chapter. Hope Brian won't be too much of an ass with Justin who "shared a kiss" with Gus the night before and with the other things his son told him about his crush.

Thank you so much. 

Author's Response:

Hi, my friend! I know - poor Gus; the kid just can't cut a break, kind of like Tristan.  He's so mixed up with his feelings, and this is NOT going to help one bit.  And you raise a good point; just how much will Justin and Gus tell him about their relationship?  Brian already knows that his son 'shared a kiss' with this other boy he's interested in, and now he's no doubt going to know that the 'other boy' is Justin; just what does that mean?  You know "Mr. I Don't Do Jealous" Brian; he was already jealous before; how is he going to react when he realizes it's his own son?  Will he even let Justin explain that it was innocent and didn't get anywhere?  Or will Gus run out before any of them can even talk?  This is going to be a mess, but you know how much I relish angst, and this one has it big time!

I'm hopeful that Michal and I can update quickly; we'll do our very best. Thank you for reading and for the comments!  We appreciate the support so much and we're both delighted that you're following and enjoying this story.  *Hugs*  ~Michal and Kim

Reviewer: Vision (Signed) · Date: August 10, 2013 01:49 AM · On: Here Comes the Boom!

oh shit not the way I wanted Gus to find out and with the whole Lindsay bullshit. I hope he doesn't think this is just some random fuck and listens to the whole story of how they met.

 

Damn need the next chapter soon

Author's Response:

Hello!  Michal and I thank you for reading and for commenting!  Yes, this is probably THE worst possible way to find this out; now Brian not only has to try and explain to Gus what is going on (after his own initial shock wears off!), but he has Lindsay to worry about, too.  Will Gus be so upset that he will decide to run off with his mother?  Or will Brian have to decide between Gus or Justin in order to prevent that?

Obviously there's plenty of angst still to come!  We will get this updated just as soon as we can. Thank you again for the feedback; it is greatly appreciated.  *Hugs*  ~Michal and Kim

Reviewer: sfscarlet (Signed) · Date: August 10, 2013 12:30 AM · On: Here Comes the Boom!

Oh Boy!!!! Poor Gus- He likes Tristam and Justin and now to walk in on Justing and Brian.

 

Glad that Justin gave Brian another chance - I hope that meeting Gus won't put a damper on their situation-  could be very awkward.  More soon please

Author's Response:

Hi, Sandy! Thank you for reading this latest chapter and for your comments;)  Yeah, this is definitely THE worst way for Gus to find out.  Obviously, there's going to be a lot of hurt to go around int the next chapter, and Brian will have to confront one of the hardest decisions he will ever have to make.  Someone is bound to get hurt here; how they untangle themselves from this dilemma is going to take some time.

Thanks again for the feedback, Sandy; Michal and I really appreciate that!  We'll get this updated again very soon.  *Hugs*  ~Michal and Kim

I hate that you left me like this ughhhhh! Please update soon. I love this story.

Author's Response:

Hi, Sweetie! Great to hear from you.  I always loved your user name, BTW, although that would keep me up at night - ha!  

Terrible spot to leave it, I know; but at least Gus finally knows now and it's out in the open.  But the question now is, what in the world will Brian do?  Justin obviously wants to be with him, not Gus, and yet Brian loves his son and doesn't want him to get hurt. Will Gus understand?  Or will Brian be forced to choose between Justin or his son?  Hm....That's the big question; someone is bound to be hurt by his decision.   Believe it or not, though, Michal and I will get this tangled mess sorted out eventually, but not before some more angst sets in.;)

Thank you very much for reading and for the comments!  We will update this again soon.  *Hugs*  ~Michal and Kim

Hey Kim :)

Omg....well the secret is finally out....poor Gus, I can just imagine how devastated he must be walking in on Justin and Brian that way. Now let's see if their relationship can survive this

Author's Response:

Hi, Tamara!  Michal and I thank you for reading and for the comments!  Yes, as progressive and deep as Brian and Gus's relationship is, this is obviously a major blow to Gus's hopes of a relationship with Justin. Thank God they didn't go any farther than they did, but Brian will really be in a major pickle here now. What does he do to resolve this?  Hope you will stay tuned!  We WILL get this fixed eventualy.;)  Thanks again, Tamara, for the support!  It is greatly appreciated.  *Hugs*  ~Michal and Kim

Reviewer: YumYumPM (Signed) · Date: August 09, 2013 09:18 PM · On: Here Comes the Boom!

Boom is an understatement.  Lindsay dropped a bombshell, Brian hurts Justin, Gus still doesn't know about Justin and Brian!  The aftermath!  On the plus side, Justin did forgive Brian and Tristan finally made his move on Gus.  Then the final exposion.  Gus finds Justin with his dad!!!  The next chapter is going to be stupendous as we find out how you proceed from here. 

Author's Response:

Hi, my friend!  Yeah, one step forward and then two steps back.  Michal and I have our work cut out for us to get everyone to a happy place here.  We all know how teenage hormones are, so Gus is bound to be devastated, at least at first. The main question is, though, how will Brian handle this?  What a major triangle!  Does he hurt his son - or does he hurt Justin again?

Thanks for reading and for the comments.  Sorry, too, about the longer-than-normal delay in updating; my co-writer had some RL issues come up and I just got back from my trip to NYC to see Randy in his play, so we're a little behind.  We'll try out best to get the next update up a lot sooner.  Thanks for hanging in there with us.  *Hugs*  ~Michal and Kim
