Author's Response: Now what would be the fun in that? LOL! Don't worry - I'm slowly heading in that direction - kind of like the same speed as those two snails in one of the early episodes - ha!:)

H! Nonie called to talk and in our conversation she alluded passing on our rl crisis to you. Before we get too depressed I want to say this chapter was vey sad for me. I guess I am just caught up in the troubles here and want the boys to get over this"mess" and get back together and have a good life with their kids. I am sure you won't make us wait too much longer for some happiness for them. Our boy is a mess. He was very close to his uncle and quite unconsolable for a while. He was glad I came as I am glad to be of assistance. The hospital was very acommodating when I asked for time to come here. I think Brian pulled a few strings. He was unable to come, although he would have been the rock Lee needs right now as his family is very upset and needs all the help they can get. I think I have talked him into coming to be with us in Cal. He really needs his friends right now as I a a little worried about his mental health. Too much has happened in a short time for him to deal. The funeral is Tuesday and I'm going to Florida with him on Thursday. You feel like part of the peeps family so just thought I'd let you know the latest. Need to get some rest as this day has been very taxing. lol
Author's Response: Hi, lindc. Yes, Nonie was kind enough to let me know what happened. There are really no words to express how sorry I feel for Lee, but how blessed he is to have such wonderful friends such as you and Brian. I am glad that you have apparently persuaded him to move out to California to be closer to you - I think a change, plus being back with his closest friends, will be very good for him. I feel like I know him personally and wish I could give him a hug to let him know how awful I feel for him. My heart really goes out to him. Please let him know how sorry I am and that I will keep him and his family in my thoughts and prayers. I can never understand why these kinds of things happen to people such as Lee and his family, but I firmly believe that he WILL see him again one day. Please express my heartfelt condolences to him and tell him I am sending my love to him. And when and if he is ready to read my stories, I will be honored to hear from him again.
I would really like to send him a card if at all possible. I would be grateful if someone could PM me and give me some address I could send a note to him a least in care of. If you would prefer not to do that or if that is not possible, though, I understand. Please give him my best, and I'm sending hugs out to all of you. You are all very special to me. Please take care of yourself, too. *Hugs* ~Kim

...it was time for a little ‘tough love...
This was absolutely my favorite chapter. I'm happy that Brian had gotten more forthright with his feelings. I loved that kiss he gave Justin.
I'm also happy that he told the girls to stop their little games to get them back together although they clearly have no intention of stopping them. Jennifer actually started the whole thing and should take full responsibilty for it.
I think Justin is right in that Brian needs to come clean as to why he was unfaithful. It's sad that Brian has no idea himself as to what caused it.
Great chapter!
Author's Response: Hi, my friend! Your words of encouragement are very motivating to me - thank you for reading this latest chapter and for your feedback! I'm delighted that you liked it. I agree with you totally - they both have a lot of thinking - and talking - to do. The girls' attempts to get them back together have been humorous, but now I think the really tough part begins, for only their fathers can truly resolve what needs to be hashed out between them. I see some struggling yet ahead, but they are slowly getting back on the right track now.
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for all your support! I am very grateful for your consistent encouragement! *Hugs* ~Kim

Ooh, those boys are so stubborn!! On one hand, it has been a decade and despite what Brian did, Justin still loves him and knows how much the girls want them to be a family. I doubt Brian would ever hurt Justin like that again, because he knows what he has to lose. On the other hand, Brian needs to get his shit straightened out in that thick head of his and open up to Justin about why he decided to destroy their relationship and their family.
Now that I'm all caught up, I need more, Kim, I need MORE!!!!! :)
Author's Response: I'm very grateful that you took the time to read what I have written for this so far, Nancy! Thanks for all the comments, too.:) I'm heading toward the conclusion of this story soon, so I will probably update it one more time before I move onto one of my other WIPs.
Thank you again for taking the time to review. The boys will soon be engaging in a more heart-to-heart discussion, which is sorely needed here! *Hugs* ~Kim

I was so excited to see this chapter. I love this story. I feel Justin and Brian's pain. So hard to watch Brian try to get Justin and Justin not open himself to that opportunity. Great angst. Hope Mikey can help.
Author's Response: Hi, Sandy - thank you as always for reading and for the comments; I really appreciate that so much.:) I do think that someone who is hurt deeply takes longer to forgive someone. Even though Justin still loves him and it was the one act, I think due to the trust issue and what Brian's violation of that trust signified, it will still take a little while longer for him to come around. But soon we will be seeing a sea change in his attitude due to several things. I hope you'll bear with me until I can reach that point - it IS coming.:)
Thanks so much for your ongoing support, Sandy; I'm very grateful for that.:) Looking forward to the rest of your own story as well. *Hugs* ~Kim

Justin Justin why are you so ... aggrrrrr. Kim please fix this. You are the one who can do that ... and maybe Brian !
* hugs *
Last week was very nice. We (me, my girls and a little niece) were at a park with shetland ponys. We had a lot of fun with those little ponys.
Are you going to Silence! the musical ?
Author's Response: Hi, dear - I was missing you! I think everyone's run off on me to go join the "Tag team" - LOL! I hope she takes a breather in between her writing marathons so I can get some more readers over here...aargh! (don't mind me, just a little envious, I guess...:) BTW - that is one sexy banner you made up for her - incredible! You did a beautiful job.:)
Now you know I always have to throw some angst in my story before I get them back where they belong, but you also know I'll get them back to a happy place eventually. I hope you'll hang on until I can get them there...should be maybe three, four more chapters?
And yes, I am going to see Randy in his new play. I will be going to see him perform on August 3, maybe even again on August 5. But at least the one time for sure. And I'll be seeing him in his one-time reading of "QWAN" in the Berkshires (Massachusetts) on August 20.
Thanks again for reading and for the comments, Marny. ~Kim

It's kind of sad that the girls' plan backfired so quickly... On the other hand, maybe this will get the boys back together quicker also.
I think that Brian needs to stop letting pride rule his head and give his heart the rains. As for Justin, I hope that whatever reason Brian gives him for what happened years ago will be enough for him to forgive and forget.
Can't wait to read more of this awesome story.
Cheers,
Vin
Author's Response: Hi, Vin - thank you for reading, my friend, and for the review. I appreciate it. They are slowly moving in the right direction now, I think. And I believe once he talks to Michael, he will have a clearer idea of his motivations. Thanks for taking the time to leave me feedback. Looking forward to our trips! *Hugs* ~Kim

ok - so as much as I really really want to 'Debbie slap' Justin right up side his head and say 'just get over it...will you? - Brian being Brian is his own worst enemy as usual...and in true BJ style is keeping himelf from getting the one thing he wants...no needs...more than anything else in the world - all because he is not willing to step back and give Justin the one thing he needs at this moment to move on...validation
now that Brian is finally open and willing to ponder and address the real issue at hand, and get past his signature "I'll do anything for love...but I won't do that' walls, excuses and avoidance tactics - I'm guessing it won't be long before he is able to regain Justin's trust...and his hot little bubble butt won't be far behind...
in fact, knowing our boys as we do...would we be surprised if the boys give in to their passion long before all the emotional baggage is resolved completely?
chin up girls...you're hot daddy twosome is about to turn your little frowns upside down...in a most life affirming way!
so happy for this update Kim - great writing as usual
Charle
Author's Response: Hi, Charle - thank you as always for reading and taking the time to review, dear friend; I really appreciate that.:) I think a lot of people are getting impatient over Justin's stubbornness; if it's any consolation, I see that changing pretty soon, especially once some other elements come into play in the story. It IS amazing how pride and hurt can factor into decisions we make and how it can fester for so long.
I think we all know eventually that their passion will not be able to be contained (wink, wink), but I may just surprise you and let them sort through their issues first before we get to that point. Thanks again for all your support, Charle - I'll be updating this one again very soon.:) *Hugs* ~Kim
P.S. Your comment about the 'Debbie slap' reminded me of a moment at the con on Sunday (the closing day) when the actors were up on the stage for photo shoots with fans. At one point Sharon Gless and Hal Sparks were up there and she gave him this fake slap just like in the show - it was HILARIOUS!
Reviewer: Megan Rose (Signed) · Date: July 14, 2012 08:32 AM · On: What Super Power Do I Use Now?
Okay, really, Justin, enough is enough! Either end it (and we know that won't happen!) or get over it and move on! He's being beyond stubborn here. I do agree Brian should figure out why he did what he did, and hopefully Michael can help him. But Justin needs to back off and let him. Oh, the poor boys!
Author's Response: Hi, Megan! Thanks for reading and for the comments, my friend! Yes, I sense readers are in agreement with you on this one. Don't worry - Justin's about to realize that it IS time to dwell on more important matters - it's coming up shortly. Please bear with me until I can get them to the right spot.:) I plan on updating this one again before moving on to the next WIP if that helps.:) Thank you for all your support, my friend; that means a lot to me. *Hugs* ~Kim

good morning, it's 7 saturday morning over here. Having my breakfast and reading my favorite story at the same time now! Cheers, June:)
Author's Response: Good Morning, June! What a lovely thing to say - thank you! I'm so delighted that you're enjoying the story still.:) I will probably update this one again before I move onto my other WIPs, by the way, so I may another chapter up again very shortly. Thank your for spending your breakfast with me - wish we could meet for some coffee:) *Hugs* ~Kim
Reviewer: Tagsit (Anonymous) · Date: July 14, 2012 05:05 AM · On: What Super Power Do I Use Now?
Loved it, as always. Especially the idea of Brian finally being willing to talk to someone (even if it's only Michael) to try to figure himself out. Waiting on pins and needles for the next chapter! TAG
Author's Response: Hi, Tag! I'm honored that you took the time to read this latest installment - that explains why no update on yours yet today - LOL! Congrats on all the tons of amazing reviews you're getting and TWO blue ribbons in a row now! I'm jealous but so well deserved.:) You're the fastest updater I've ever seen! I'll have to hire you to be my ghostwriter.:)
I'll probably update this one again before I move onto my next WIP - it's getting toward the end now and I'd really like to get it wrapped up soon. Thank you again for reading and taking the time to leave me feedback - you of all people certainly know how important that is to a writer.:) *Hugs* ~Kim

Hey there. Just got home and read my e-mail, went over here and found your update. I feel very sorry for Brian, I must say. These two together are like tom cats or push me pull you. In a way its kind of funny. I can just picture it on the screen. I'm not sure when you'll hear from Lindc next. She had to go back east to help Lee. His uncle was killed in a three pile up on the highway. I don't know the particulars as she was quite upset. He is having a hard time with everything in his life right now. She really wants him to come here to be with her and Brian. His family thinks t would do him good as they are very close. Just thought I'd let you know. I'm sure youill hear from her when the dust settles.
Author's Response: Hi, Nonie - OMG - I am SO sorry to hear that about Lee's uncle! That poor man! First a serious accident of his own, then his broken engagement and moving, and now this? I so wish I had an email address for him or a snail mail address so I could send him a personal condolence. Please ask lindc to relay to him how very sorry I am to hear that. How horrible for him and his family. I will keep him and his family in my thoughts and prayers. And I tend to agree - I really think he could benefit from being around his close friends, so I do hope he considers coming out there to live. Again, so sorry to hear that!
As for the story, yes, it is kind of comical how stubborn these two can be. They obviously are still deeply in love and have wasted so much time now. But not to fear - I'll get them patched up before it's all said and done.:) Thank you for taking the time to read and comment - and especially for telling me about Lee. I will be thinking about him and I'm sending him my love and a big hug his way. *Hugs* to you, too, for being such a special friend to all of them. ~Kim

Great balla of fire Justin. Grow the devil up and stop being such a drama queen. It's been years, Let it go already. Now poor Brian is going to see Mikey? How is he going to help-my goodness. Brian should go see a shrink. He would probably get better advice. I guess you have your reasons for this next step. Justin should just have had the big flare-up and forgiven him years ago. Women don't hold grudges this long. Ha!. Good chapter-didn't mean to get so irate-just me being me.
Author's Response: That's okay, Kym! I wouldn't mind giving Justin a big kick in his pretty little bubble butt myself - ha! I think he is beginning to come around (maybe?) and things will be happening soon to start making him see it's time to move on. Brian probably would be better off with a shrink, but I just don't really see him doing that unless he goes to see his buddy Alec at Woody's again. I think the fact that he actually sought out help for Justin so long ago is very telling about just how much he cared for him at the time.
Anyway, thank you so much for reading and for the comments, Kym! I really appreciate that! I will get this updated again very soon. *Hugs* ~Kim

I still think Brian should give up on Justin, i don't think a kick to the head from a draft horse would do any good. Justin needs to look at the big picture, he is making 3 people suffer just because his feeling got hurt by one mistake that happened 10 years ago. I do like the way the story is going, loved Brian's talk with the girls on the patio, I want Tiki lights!
Lori
Author's Response: Hi, Lori! Well, I'll keep the kick in the head in mind if Justin doesn't straighten up soon.:) Maybe I'd better start posting my new Tricky story ahead of time so I can introduce some much lighter fare to calm your nerves - LOL! (hope you know I'm just teasing here). Yes, it was one mistake and I see your point, but it wasn't so much the action as what it signified, I think, but what they lost as a result. It's more of a trust issue and an honesty issue, which is kind of ironic considering that Justin broke Brian's trust by cheating on him with Ethan. Hopefully with Michael helping Brian to talk things through, and someone ELSE coming to visit in the next chapter, the boys will start figuring out what in the world their problems are and start hashing things out! Thank you as always for your comments and for reading, Lori.:) I really appreciate that. *Hugs* ~Kim
