Something cheerful please people

[broken-faith12.livejournal.com]

Ok, so I just got done reading Remission by Simon. It was a good story. However, I suddenly feel the need to read something upbeat. Anything upbeat.

It doesn't have to be fluffy or sappy, just cheerful. But not crackfic, please.

Any help would be seriously appreciated.

Thanks!

Edit: I have a couple of super-fast recs in the comments, but any others would be appreciated.

Edit 2: This was not meant as a reccomendation. While meaning no offence to the author, this is a truly depressing story, made far, far worse by the personal connections and reality it involves. It is not a story I will ever re-read. If you do choose to read it, don't blame me when it upsets you.

I have never and will never read anything else by that author - I seriously don't need to be more depressed. But now I'm curious - how did they treat him?

After the end of being thrown away from Brian and most of the family, after the guy Brian decided to make a life with dies, he deigns to take Justin back. Justin is then told, after a lifetime apart how grateful he should be that Brian actual still wanted him and they had a "second chance". Gus being firmly of the belief that Justin shouldn't dare to have issues with being a lifelong chew toy.

Then Brian gets sick and doesn't tell Justin, supposedly for good reason, but basically because he isn't what really matters.

Gag me with a spoon. I need to go read some candy for my brain.
