There was this fic I read not too long ago about Joan walking down the street (I think she might've just bought a new bible) & she wasn't paying attention to where she was going. She stepped out onto the road and a speeding car almost hit her. Someone yanked her out of the way just in time. The car didn't stop. Joan was in shock & she heard her savior calling her name, asking if she was okay. She turned to look at the person who saved her and it was Justin. Joan, still in shock, thought there was something familiar about him. Clutching to her religion in such a traumatizing time, she thought of Justin (in all his angel-like gorgeous good looks) as the angels she'd seen depicted in church all her life. She was amazed that Justin knew her name and thought this was because he was a messenger of God. When Justin introduced himself & reminded her of when she'd seen him in the loft, she came down from her shock & immediately became disgusted. She was ranting & raving about how all gays go to hell when Justin interrupted & asked her if she'd like a cup of coffee - he'll buy. He took her to the diner. Deb almost had words with her but Justin managed to steer her away. Joan lost it a little, saying that all the diner's patrons were headed to hell for their sins, but Justin did his badass thing, told her to sit down and shut the fuck up. At some point, Justin offered to paint her a picture of the archangel Michael (or something that's related to God and angels; maybe it was a copy of a famous painting). Brian walked in, was incensed to see her, rebuked any of her attempts at a civil conversation, flaunted his relationship with Justin & basically ignored her. Joan left the diner thanking Justin for the future painting & thought to herself about praying for both Brian & Justin.
I loved that fic so much and though I remember practically all of it, I can't remember the author or where I found it. It's driving me crazy & I'd love, love, LOVE the opportunity to read it again.
If any of you have ever read this story, could you please help me?
