Brian has affair with Justin while with Michael

[starrynights110.livejournal.com]

Hey,

This fic has been bugging me for a while. I looked in the archives, and I couldn't find it... and I tried not to pass over any or miss it by accident, but I probably did. Knowing my luck there's a post somewhere beneath me asking for the same thing, and I accidentally looked over it. But I don't think that's the case.

There was a fic where Brian and Michael were a couple... and then Brian meets Justin and starts having an affair with him behind Michael's back. I'm pretty sure it was rather angsty, and there was a scene where Justin was breaking down in an alley and begged Brian to stay with him for once, but Brian reluctantly left him again for Michael?

I know it'll sound familiar for at least a few of you, so I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you so much, and again I'm sorry about the lack of positive results from the archive search!

EDIT:
Found at last! "What We Break For" by Tinkabelle. Link in the comments. Thanks!

NOTE: Just wondering... are there any other fics along this storyline? If so, feel free to run them by me.

I think that's "Forbidden Love" by Draccone

The first chapter is at the bottom of the page.

Ok... so maybe I'm an imbecile, which is entirely a possibility. But I can't seem to find the scene, the one I talked about in my description with Justin begging Brian to stay with him for once... are you sure it's the right fic? Which chapter is that scene in?

[qaf-fanatic.livejournal.com]

lol. I'm re-reading it right now myself. I'm almost through chapter 12. I can't exactly pinpoint where that exact scene takes place, because it's pretty much how everything goes from like chapter 3 - 10.

Maybe it was a different fic you were talking about, but everything else seems to fit.

OOOH, wait. There is one scene where after they "break up" so Brian can be with Michael, Justin finds Brian in the alley beside babylon kissing a trick. Then Justin starts yelling at Brian about why they gave each other up so Brian wouldn't hurt Micheal, and that if he was going to do this what was the point of stopping their affair. Then Justin walks off and Brian leaves with Micheal.

That's all i got. If it's not that, then it's entirely possible you're looking for a different fic.

Hmm yeah, I think it might be a different fic. The scene is pretty vivid and clear in my mind... and is definitely not the one in this fic. Thanks for your help though. At least I got another great fic out of it. :)

*nods* This is true.

Good luck with the searching!

What we Break For (http://www.bjfic.net/main/viewstory.php?sid=6242&warning=R) by Tinkabelle ?

Or maybe Rules Of The Heart (http://qamquoin.irishcaelan.com/Fic/rules1.htm) by burntsm0re ?

I don't remember the scene you mentioned, but those two fics are quite angsty and pretty good, as far as I remember (even though the first one could use a punctuation and spell check, but it's really gripping). They both start off as Brian/Michael with Brian/Justin affair in sight, of course.

You're my hero. You really are. The first one is it. Thank you so much.

Wasn't there one out there also where Michael finds Brian and Justin together in an alley, and slams Justin's hand in the car door? Anyone know this one?

[starrynights110.livejournal.com]

Yes yes, that's "Rules of the Heart"... link is above in rinmonsterer's comment.
