Brian/Justin meet years later - Ben/Justin story

[way-to-the-end.livejournal.com]

1) A while ago, I've read a story in which Justin and Brian weren't together anymore, I don't remember what happened that they split but anyway... Justin goes to live in New York I think he's with Daphne, years later they meet again because Justin goes to work with Brian. I think that Cynthia or Ted hired him so when Brian finds out that it's Justin, he fires him but then Cynthia convinces him to take him back. So they go away on a business trip together in Chicago I think and while they're sleeping in the same hotel room, Justin has nightmares. Now, I'm not totally sure if it's the same story, but if it is, then it happens that Justin won't tell Brian that he was raped while in NY, he tells him that he was a go-go dancer but doesn't want to tell Brian the truth but at the end he finds out anyway.

I don't remember the title so I'm not able to look for it but I think that it was on MS. Does anyone know this story and has a link to it?  

2) I was reading a story in which Justin and Ben are friends and so I was wondering if someone has some stories to suggest me where Justin is with Ben or they are friends and Ben introduces him to the others or whatever you have where Justin and Ben are close friends.

thanks!!!

#1 is Meredeth's Arms Of Destiny. Justin got raped but he didn't work as a go-go dancer. Here's the link http://www.mags-nificent.com/MSW/MerF/Arms.htm
The one with Justin as a gogo dancer is another story. He didn't tell Brian untill the end. I've read this but can't remember. I'll check later :-)

Heh, you beat me to "Arms of Destiny"...

Hey there!

I think your first request is a combo of two different stories.

I think the one where Justin get's hired on at Brian's firm, Brian fires Justin, B&J go to Chicago and share a hotel room, etc. is "Arms of Destiny" by Merideth. Here's the link: http://www.mags-nificent.com/MSW/MerF/Arms.htm

I don't remember the name of the other fic, but in it Justin lives in NY with Daphne and they have a daughter that they are raising together. Justin ran away to NY after Brian's loft was broken into and he ended up working as a hustler. After he and Brian reconnect, Justin goes back to the Pitts and at dinner at Debbie's Michael overhears Justin talking to Hunter about how he used to hustle. Of course, Michael runs to Brian and spills the beans about Justin's past career. Oh, and I also remember that, for whatever reason, Brian is raising Gus on his own...I think maybe the Mel and Lindz had died. In the end, Brian and Gus go to live in NY with Justin and his daughter. I just read this one recently, but for the life of me can't remember who wrote it or what it's called. Hopefully, this will helpn jog someone else's memory.

Hopefully these are the fics you are looking for...if not, sorry for my lengthy rambling.

I was skimming through the dead lesbian links and saw this. It has been a while since this was posted but if you are still interested in this story I think it is called "No Wonder" By Kelley aka Diva on Moonshadowtribe site. Everytime I read it I always feel like the writer ended the story too soon and there should be more to the story.
