What a tremendous feel-good chapter! <3
I love how Debbie, Justin, and Brian work together to rescue another 'lost boy'. Joe may be starting to realize that the diner is a safe place and that his options aren't as limited as he thought.
LMAO! over Justin calling Brian cute and Brian's reaction. At least he didn't queen out - kept his best interests in mind. LOL And Brian and John's lack of enthusiasm over watching the Nutcracker every ear - hilarious. :D
I'm hoping to catch up on your story today. RL has been pretty rotten, but stories like this help me cope. :)

Author's Response: Looks like you are doing some catch up on your reading. Joe is lucky to have fallen in with so many big hearted people. Gus was the catalyst that got the ball rolling. Joe is fortunate that some of those big hearted people also have big wallets! Brian Kinney really doesn't want anyone to think of him as CUTE. He will setrle for nothing less than HOT. I understand rough RL, hope you can escape for a while!!! Thanks for the review!!!! Bill

That was another very interesting chapter. To me it was about who is missing rather than what happened. Jen’s new/old tradition of taking the family to see the Nutcracker, where was JR? These people in a way belong to Gus and there was no need to share that day. This was his day. Was there a happier child than Gus? Nope. I have said it before and notice there really wasn’t any room for Craig. The tradition happily continues without him.
One more missing person though, and there are more. Where is Michael? Who cares? Debbie, and Brian though Debbie, need to reach to out to him. He is becoming irrelevant. Similar to Craig, where does Michael fit except being Debbie’s son? Sadly, he is not missed.
Thanks for the Chapter, lots of love and joy, and holiday spirit.

Author's Response: Glad to see your review, I was worried about you. You are always so loyal about commenting. JR really doesn't have much relationship with Jennifer. Her mommys and Mother Taylor are not on the best of terms. For sure no ne is missing Craig but I think maybe Craig is missing them. Michale will rear his head soon. He will be at the Christmas Eve gathering at Debbie & Carl's house. Glad to know you enjoyed this chpater and I alway enjoy hearing from you!!! Thanks!!!! Bill

OOPS! My Sweet Baboo: Talking about the ballet I totally forgot about Nico, the little shit, how dare he threaten Debbie! She is quiet meddlesom within the family, she does a lot of good. With PFLAG, feeding some who can't order anything but coffee , and mostly just listening to people who have no one to care. Hopefully Joe knows bad news when he sees it. Back to Brian for a minute, Deb calls him an asshole, Em has called him a queen, some lowlife have called him a faggot, mikey calls him selfish and cheap, an even uncaring and he doesn't say a word he just acts proud, but let Justin called cute or Jen call him sweetheart he blushes and doesn't like it when he called these names, go figure? Your Loving Sally
Author's Response: Darling Sally, the only thing better than one review is a double review, YAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think Nico is an ant that will get tread on soon, no one has anyone to worry about from him . Debbie always looks out for the underdog. I don't believe Brian ever wants anyone to think he is cute but you are correct Brian has an issue with praise. I think it is because he never got any praise when he was younger. Thanks for the double review!!!!!!!! your sweet Baboo

You did good my Sweet Baboo! I was amazed Brian went to the ballet with the others. I was happy Justin told the boys about the ballet and then repeated the story at bedtime for Gus so everyone would understand the story. Of course Brian made fun at home but quickly changed his behavior. He was happy Gus enjoyed himself and Brian treated everyone to a wonderful meal and made the outing so special. If Gus could get his daddy to wear the awful t-shirt on the fourth of July he certainly could get him to go to the ballet. It was wonderful for Jen I think she missed this for a number of years. It wouldn't surprise me if next year for her other grandson Kevin might want to go with Gus, after all daddy would have to stay with the babies but no doubt papa would be with them. I know Brian is stressed out about Joan, but Justin knows how to reach him. Good story. Love ya.Sally.
Author's Response: My Darling Sally, always so happy to see your review. Brian has warned others not to get on Mother Taylor's bad side so he certainly isn't going to take a chance on doing that himself. If there is a chnace of making his Sunshine and Mother Tyalor angry he is not going there!! You are correct Gus can make his Daddy do things that no one else can. Brian & Justin made it a nice night for everyone with dinner at a great restaurant. Jennifer was thrilled to restart this traditional with her recently expanded family. The babies will change a lot of things, Christmas included. Justin is always there for Brian. Thanks as always for the review!!!! your sweet Baboo

Always happy to get a new update and glimpse into the boys lives. I've never seen the Nutcracker except as a cartoon the kids used to watch - might just look into that.....
Author's Response: Happy to know you enjoyed the latest chapter. I must confess that I am not really a huge fan of the NutCracker but I thought it was a very Jennifer thing to do. I like the music. Thanks for taking time to review!!!! Bill

NIco and Deb- great interaction- hope Nico stays away. Always love the scenes between Justin and Brian. thanks for the update.
Author's Response: I think Debbie can handle Nico. Glad you enjoyed the interaction, I tried to capture Debbie's style. Glad you enjoyed the B&J interaction as well! Thanks for the review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bill

It is great to see another chapter of this story--one of my favorites! How dare Nico threaten Debbie!! What a sleazy creep. He had better reconsider, as there would be hell to pay from all kinds of folks, including B&J. Debbie gave Joe good counsel...I hope he will think it over and then allow Debbie to help him. I'll be interested to see how that relationship develops and what involvement Joe may end up having with the Kinney-Taylor household. Poor Brian had to go to the doghouse because of his thoughtless comment about the ballet. He's just lucky that Jennifer wasn't the one to hear it. Justin was benevolent in the end and let Brian out pretty quickly. Loved all the parts with Gus and the cousins. And, of course, all the affectionate B&J moments. Will be looking forward to whatever you have in store for us next. Thank you!
Author's Response: Thanks for letting me know my story is one of your favortites. You should consider joining Midnight Whispers and then you could officially make it a favorite. There are no emails or other annoying things for the members. I agree that Nico is sleazy creep!! I think you are correct that Nico will be sorry that he threatened Debbie. We will learn more about Joe. Brian is lucky that Mother Taylor didn't hear his commenst she might not have left him off as easily as Justin did. I think Justin telling Brian he was "cute" was probably punishment enough. Gus does love spending time with those big boy cousins. I believe B&J will always find time for "affectionate moments". Thanks for taking time to review as you probably know I do love to get reviews!!!!!!!!! Bill

I was just in the middle of re-reading HH when I was delightfully surprised with a new chapter. Obviously, I had to put the older chapters on hold so I could see what our favorite family was up to. And to no one's surprise, it was a wonderful chapter. And now, back to my re-reading endeavors.
Great work, as per usual :)

Author's Response: Sorry to interupt your re-reading but happy to know you thought the newest chapter made the interuption worthwhile. Thanks for taking time to review since I LOVE hearing from the readers!!!!! Bill

Happy Monday!!
The family is one that many dream about having. Justin having Gus make the wrapping paper is just such a Justin thing to do. Him comforting Brian in the wake of Joan. Justin puts it into perspective for him. Joan is alone. Brian is surrounded by friends and family who love and support him. Such strength between those 2. They nurture each other and are able to watch each other grow in different ways. Eve nif it means putting each other in their place. hehe. justin sure did with Brian re: the ballet. So good to see! I think it's nice for Jen to restart the tradition. She has an entire new family and a new generation to influence. Even if Ballet is theri thing, it's more a matter of being together. for her to bring something from her old life that she enjoyed, into her new life. While Brian adn Joh may not be as enthusiastic, they'll learn to appreciate what Jenn is doing I'm sure.
Good on Deb for stepping up to Nico. He's definitely someone that worries me. wonder if he bit off more than he can chew when he threatened Deb. I hope Joe took what Deb said to heart and stays away!! I really hope Nico stays away. I don't like teh idea of him doing anything to Deb. Or to Joe.
Lovely lovely chapter! You know what a fan I am of this! I have to say, I was so excited to get this and every update.
Have a good week!!
Cheers,
Elaine
Author's Response: Hi Elaine, I wanted to get this chapter posted so it was there for you to read on Monday!!! Gus loves doing art projects with his Papa so custom wrapping paper is a prefect activity. You are right Justin was busy comforting Brian, putting him in his place and annoying him a little by saying he is "cute". I don't think cute is anything Brian ever aspired to be. Everyone may not like the ballet but they do all love Grandmom Jen so if she wants to go to the ballet I think they will go without too much struggle.
I think Debbie van handle Nico on her own but something tells me she won't have to. I think Nico will get the mesage to not mess with Debbie. Thanks for all the nice comments. You know what a fan I am of reviews so thanks for always being so faithful about posting one. We have a perfect relationship where we are both happy!!!! Cheers back to you!!!!! Bill

It's nice to know that having kids in the house doesn't curtail Justin and Brian's activities. Gus is truly loved and I wonder how Christmas is celebrated at him mom's. Love the Nutcracker Sweet in this chapter along with Grandma Jen and John and Peter. Britin is the house of LOVE.
Author's Response: Slways happy to see your review. Well they didn't get busy in the study since they had to think about dinner. Pre kids there would have been sex followed by Thai takeout. Gus does love spending time with Daddy, Papa and big boy cousins. Throw in an afternoon with Granmom Jen and Gus is a happy, happy boy. Thanks for all your support!!!!! Bill

Justin had a lot to do this chapter telling Brian a shitty mother is not his fault. Making sure All the boys know the Nutcracker story so they understand what they are seeing in the ballet. And reminding Brian that he loves him because he is cute. I loved that line.not sure I like Deb advertising Brian and Justin's wealth I think Nico would have more Veda on with just the reminder of what happen to Tino. You know I love chapters that are mostly the boys so this was great. Looks like maybe I could get 3 chapters in my birthday month. Thanks for that....
Author's Response: Hellp my friend, Happy Birthday Month!!!! Justin was busy reassurng Brian in this chapter. Although I don't think Brian felt reassured by being decribed as cute! I don't think Deb was giving away any secrets about Brian & Justin's net worth. I think it is pretty common knowledge on Liberty Avenue. Glad you enjoyed this chapter, wouldn't want to disappoint you during your birthday month. Thanks for the review!!!!!! Bill
