2 requests: brian and justin try to work things out at the end of season 2; also, some 2010 recs...

Hello, everyone...I hope everyone is having a good Holiday Season.

I've been, unwittingly, away from the fandom since last November, but I have a craving for some Brian/Justin fiction at the moment. First, I'm looking for any stories, long or short, where Brian and Justin don't break up at the start of the Ethan fiasco. Like maybe Justin doesn't leave the party with Ethan or they try to work things out after the "You stink..." episode. I read one once where Justin tries to kill himself after that... Evil-Ethan stories would be good too... or may just something where Justin realizes his huge mistake after he sleeps with Ethan that first time...

Also, because I haven't had a chance to read a lot of B/J fic this year, can anyone recommend some must read stories for 2010...

Thanks for any help guys...have a happy season...


Edit: Two recs so far for my 1st request...would love some more. Thanks. None yet for request #2.

There are plenty of fanfics, where Justin chooses Brian over Ethan. I don't know what kind of fics or what authors you prefer, so I'll just give you several links to different stories :)

Short fics

A short AU fic, that takes place after 219. A little bit OOC, in my opinion.
Don't Dream It's Over (http://oz-expression.nu/qafpig/sa_dontdreamitsover.php)
Another short fic, where Justin chooses Brian. (convo-only-fic)

Long fics

Lots of angst.

Episode 220 (AU).

I don't know whether it fits your request: Name Your Wish (http://www.mags-nificent.com/MSW/JVF/Wish1.htm) by JustVisiting
Summary: "Takes Brian and Justin from mid-season 2 to a far different finale, as they try to find a way to be -- and stay -- together." No Ethan.
