fic search

I've been looking for a community like this for a long time, I'm glad I found you and I hope I can help, too.
I've been re-reading my favorite qaf stories, and I can't find one I really liked.  The story was about Justin deciding to be monogamous because, as he tells Brian"I never get off with anyone as long or as hard as I do with you" (not an actual quote obviously, just taken from my memory).  Brian is mad at first, then he also decides to be monogamous and he breaks the news to Justin by repeating the same words (above) to him, and making love to him without a condom because he had abstained and had been tested.
I think the last line is something about Justin looking 17 again.  So, I guess it's an established rrelationship story, set in the future.
I remember it was really good, sorry for the long description, I hope someone will be able to help!
Thanks.

Edom you are the knowing the stories goddess! I just want to know how you do it. Do you have a photographic memory? A really excellent story organization system? I'm really curious. I'm working on a not so excellent organizational system and I want to know your secret!

I have a Delicious account. I have tags on all the stories I want to save and can search in them like that:

http://delicious.com/Edom56

It's free and very easy :)

So that's your secret. I've been meaning to check delicious out but have been working on populating my LJ memories and creating a reading log. I'm just always amazed at how people can identify a story from one little line. I've been wondering about it. Thanks!
