going crazy!

[andrea94.livejournal.com]

Hi I'm a total lurker but always check out this site because great stories that I haven't read before come up pretty often. Well now I'm looking for 2 fics. Any help would be great.

In the first story I think Brian and Justin go to the beach or lake and stay at a clients huge house right on the water but with a pool in the back yard also. I do remember that the rest of the boys show up( Emmett, Ted and Michael) and I think Michael lays out and gets really sun burnt.

In the second one Justin leaves for Europe on a trip his grandmother payed for and doesn't end up coming back. Brian sees him getting carried out of a car while Brian is in a cafe' with a new client. Justin ends doing artwork for the new client. Also Justin wakes up in the middle of the night and goes running.

The first story is really driving me crazy I read it a long time ago and it's been on my mind lately for some reason and the second one I just really liked because of the angst. Appreciate the help. Andrea

Searching for 'Retreating Justin fic'

[eawen-penallion.livejournal.com]

I have memories of a story where Justin 'retreats' from contact with the Liberty Avenue gang, easing his way out of their lives and of Brian's. The cause is some kind of self esteem problem, where he feels that everyone's life wouldn't be affected by his absence.

I am sure that it isn't Rizabeau's 'Signed' fic  (Justin is still inPittsburgh, I think),  it may be a stand alone story.

Any help is much appreciated!

ETA:

It is 'Concede' by Jule, the link is in the comments. It can also be found with Jule's other stories on the 'Moonshadow Tribe' site, at http://www.mags-nificent.com/MSW/Jule.htm

Many thanks to everyone :-)
