getithereIt all begins with Brian having sex with Michael and breaking up with Justin, telling him he doesn't love him and that Michael comes first. Brian also tells Justin to stay away from his life and his friends.
So Justin cuts himself off from the gang, using excuses about needing to move on. At first he still babysits Gus, but suddenly his weekly sessions are cancelled by Mel and Linds and Justin finds out that Michael has taken over for him.
Justin is working at a restaurant (to earn money for his tuition?). One day, Brian is one of the customers, but Justin refuses to see or acknowledge him in any way. However, he is short on money, so at some point he takes up a colleague on an offer to start meeting with a guy, have sex with him and get paid for it. That guy (obviously) will turn out to be Brian in the end, who is trying to get Justin back.
At first, they always meet in a hotel room and Justin is always blindfolded. They also never talk. Justin repetedly thinks that it is not Brian because he smells differently. At some point, Justin gets beaten up and wants to cancell his meeting with "the stranger", pretending to have a cold. However, "the stranger" (Brian) insists on meeting him, to make sure he is ok. I think Justin takes too many painkillers to cover up his injury... Somehow he ends up in Brian's loft with Brian taking care of him. They talk, Brian admits that it had been him all along, and they make up. At some point, I remember, Justin tells Brian that he liked his old smell better (before he changed the shampoo to make sure Justin wouldn't kow who "the stranger" was). Brian replies that they will just have to change the soap brand again (like they did after Ethan).
2. I also remember that there was a sequal to this... But the only scene I can recall is Gus playing with Justin's paints in the loft and leaving a lot of coloured footprints, which Brian tries to preserve, actually admitting that they are cute.
Thanks for your help! It's really driving me crazy that I cannot find this fic anymore...
Edit: It's "New Year" and "Spring Fever" by Rizabeau. Thanks! ^^

Blind-folded Justin
Date: 2007-06-09 09:39 pm (UTC)When I read it the first couple of times I thought well, it doesn't
get any dumber than this..
But then, you realize in the Justin/Brian/Rizabeau world it doesn't get any better than that.
Actually, it does..Somebody, somewhere, has Justin with a limp. Now
that's sheer brilliance: Justin limping...

Date: 2007-06-10 01:12 am (UTC)Anyway, it would have never occured to me that the fic I was looking for was one of Rizabeau's. After reading it again it now makes sense (and yes, I noticed this time that Brian calles Justin "baby" in this one, too :p), but just from what I remembered the feelings and the stories of both series seemed to be so totally different...
What did Xie-Xie-Xie do to make this a legend?
Re: Blind-folded Justin
Date: 2007-06-10 01:45 am (UTC)and Justin call each other "baby"..I agree.
Xie has pointed out how really special a "blind-folded" Justin is. Until she did, I really thought he was OK blind-folded.. But now, to me, blind-folded Justin is the best. LOL
