"Ugly Duckling" Justin?

Hi, I'm looking for stories where Brian was not attracted to Justin when he first met him. Maybe Justin was fat, had braces, pimples, wore ugly clothes, or for some reason due to his appearance just did not spark Brian's interest. Or maybe Justin was such a snot-nosed little brat, Brian didn't want anything to do with him. Of course, Justin should go though some sort of transformation (ugly duckling turning into a beautiful swan, if you will) and Brian then wants Justin.

I'm just starting to read "How Sweet It Is" by violette7, where Justin is fat, but Brian only wants him as a friend. From the description, it doesn't seem like Justin slims down, however, so that would not fit my above request.

Update- A few good suggestions in comments, but looking for more!

I want to say that there is a story by Grover - Agoraphobia, I think, where Justin is Agoraphobic and aside from the phobia, also is overweight and thinks he's ugly.
But since I can't find the fic in tags, I may just be mixing up stories.

The fic I'm thinking about has Justin in the same building as Brian and with the weight problem - I think he may have Acne as well.
