B/J friendship, suppressed desires etc. etc.

Can anyone recommend me and GOOD fics where Brian and Justin are just friends but obviously there's feelings of confusion or suppressed emotions going on. I don't care if they're both aware they're in love with each other or if one becomes aware and tries to seduce the other, whatever is well-written and IC.

I've already read [livejournal.com profile] arlad's The Space Between, which is what makes me want to read more. (It's good, give it a shot.)
Oh and I've also read that high school one I can't remember where they're just fuck buddies but Justin's secretly in love with Brian.

Something I DON'T want though is them hating each other first. I want them to start out as good friends or grow up together or something. I kinda wanna read about them being "best" friends but not at the cost of having to read any anti-Mikey or anti-Lindsay.

PLEASE let there be something IC out there!

ETA:
Quite a few recs in the comments, I've read most of them but you guys might not have so definitely give 'em all a shot. Contributions obviously still welcome!

ok, so I'll just friend you and point to my top-secret rec list (http://rinmonsterer.livejournal.com/5813.html). Not all of those might fit your criteria, but they're all good (imho) \^_^/

If you like hustler fics and UST (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unresolved_sexual_tension), you might want to check Dear John Doe (http://community.livejournal.com/bjfic/347034.html), if you haven't already? It's a post-109 AU, where Justin ran to NY and disappeared for like three years.

Oh, just remembered about When Friendship Hurts (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=tgray&keyword=When+friendship+hurts&filter=all) by [livejournal.com profile] tgray. Although it has B/M and Mikey isn't exactly the nicest guy in town, though I wouldn't say there's genuine Mikey hate here. But there's a lot of B/J UST that loses some of its U along the way, lol.

And it's true, I am a pathetic recpimp :x
Play nice with the ficcies.
