            The flight home from Paris was uneventful, save for a couple of inductions into the ‘Mile High Club.’  The lovers spent the transatlantic flight discussing different ideas for their move to Paris.  Brian figured he would need about six months to get his business settled in order to relocate to Europe.  The thrill that Brian would be joining him in Paris superceded any delays Brian’s business may cause.  The two men also discussed a summer visit to Dublin.  Although they had spent time with Seamus and Bridgit separately, their family wouldn’t seem complete until they saw them together.

            About halfway through the flight Justin fell asleep on Brian’s shoulder and gave the older man time to think things over.  He had no regrets about his decision to relocate with Justin.  Being honest with himself, the ad-exec knew he had acted a little impulsively.  In his quest to win Justin back, Brian never intended to offer to relocate.  The week in Paris had opened his eyes.  For the first time in his life, Brian found himself forced to put another person’s needs ahead of his own.  Exploring The City of Love with Justin, Brian realized that remaining in Pittsburgh would stifle the young artist.  There was only one way that his lover would truly be able to grow as an artist and that was to live and study in the Old World.  Having achieved his own professional success, Brian was in the position to allow Justin to follow his dreams.  Brian Kinney completed one of the first unselfish acts of his life.

            Justin began to stir as the plane began its descent into Pittsburgh.

            “Welcome back, sleepy head.”  Justin answered by nuzzling Brian’s neck.  “Careful Sunshine, we’re getting ready to land.

            Still hazy from his nap, Justin could only murmur to his lover.  “This week was perfect, wasn’t it Bri?”

            “Yeah, it was.”

            Clearing customs was a formality and the lovers were passing through security.  Basking in the love that radiated between them, they passed through the gate hand in hand with smiles beaming on their faces.

            Bri, Justin!”  Cait stood on the other side of the gate waving to her brothers.  Having arrived back in Pittsburgh the day before, Cait decided to surprise the two men at the airport.

            Hugging his twin, Brian could barely contain his surprise.  “What are you doing here?”

            “Well, I got back from Dublin yesterday, so I thought I would come and meet your flight.  I take it your Parisian vacation went well.”

            Brian answered by showing Cait the ring he had placed on Justin’s finger the night before.  “Oh my god!”  The hazel-eyed woman embraced the two men.

            Justin finally spoke, “Thanks, Caitie.”

            The three retrieved Brian’s and Justin’s bags from the luggage racks and headed home.  Even though it hadn’t been discussed, Caitlin drove them to the loft.           

            Walking into the loft, Justin saw it as his home for the first time in years.  “Home sweet home.”

            Hearing those words come from his lover warmed Brian’s heart.  His baby had finally come home.

            Brian and Justin spent the first couple of days at home making love and settling back in together as lovers.  Both men were amazed how easily they were able to slip into their old routine.

            Lindsey brought Gus over a few days after their return.  Gus was so happy to see his Dada and Jus together again.

            “Dada!”

            Kneeling down to greet his son, Brian held out his arms to the toddler.  “Come here, Sonny Boy.”

            The little boy leapt into his father’s arms.  As Brian embraced his son, he felt an ache in his heart.  When he had decided to move to Paris with Justin, the older man had forgotten to consider his son in his plans.  The stab of pain reminded Brian of how selfish he could be.

            “So the Romeo and Juliet of Liberty Avenue are back together?”

            Brian rolled his eyes at Lindsey’s literary reference.  Justin answered for the two of them.  “Yes we are, until we move to Paris.”

            Paris?  Bri?”  Looking over at her oldest friend, Lindsey’s eyes were filled with questions.

            Brian was silent for a moment.  The period of silence was unnerving.  Justin realized that Brian had never intended to move to Paris, it was simply an act of desperation that precipitated the offer.  Justin silently retreated to the bedroom.  Brian was torn between following his lover and answering Lindsey’s questions.

            Bri, what is Justin talking about?”

            “I proposed to Justin in Paris.  We’re going to move there.”

            “What about us?  What about your family?  How can you do this?”

            Wincing internally, Brian selected his answer carefully knowing that Justin could hear from the bedroom.  Paris is where Justin needs to be.  I need to be with Justin.  There really isn’t much of a choice.”

            “So you’re going to up and leave your son?  I thought you wanted your son to know you?”

            “Linds, I do, but  …”

            “You’re just going to do what you always do, follow your own desires.  Well, have fun.”

            Brian could only watch helplessly as Lindsey collected Gus and stormed out of the loft.

            Lying in bed, Justin heard the exchange between Brian and Lindsey.  Realizing that Brian never had any intention on moving to Paris, Justin allowed the tears to flow.  It appeared he and Brian were over before they had really begun again.  Smothered by the grief of his relationship, Justin wondered what he was going to do.  Deciding that he would continue his exile to Paris alone, Justin began to plan the rest of his life.

            Feeling the mattress sink beside him, Justin knew Brian had arrived to talk to him.

            “Justin …”

            “Don’t Brian.  There’s nothing to say.  I see it now.  You don’t have to explain, I won’t hold you to anything.”

            Pulling the ring off his finger, Justin hands it back to Brian.  “No Sunshine, I won’t take it back.”

            “You have to, I don’t want it.”

            Hearing that comment shattered Brian’s heart.  “Well, I want you to have it.  I won’t lie to you.  When I followed you to Paris my only intention was to bring you home.  I figured a week together would force you to forget your plan to run away to Paris.”

            “Brian … I wasn’t …”

            “Let me finish.  That week we spent together changed the perception I had about your desire for Paris.  I realized that you need to be there.  This is something you need to do and I need you to do it.”

            “What do you mean?”

            “I love you and I need you.  If you need to be in Paris to expand your life as an artist than that is where you need to be and I need to be with you.  So if that means moving to Paris than we move to Paris.”

            “Brian, what about Gus?”

            “Lindsey was just venting. She and I will work something out.”

            “Are you sure?”

            Brian led Justin’s hand to his erect cock.  “Does this answer your question?”

            Smiling at Brian, Justin gently pushed Brian onto his stomach.  Crawling on top of his older lover, Justin began to make love to Brian’s ear with his tongue.  Sliding his hand underneath Brian’s waistband, the young blonde used his finger to glide along his older lover’s crack.

            Recognizing what Justin wanted, Brian gave his consent by pushing his ass into Justin’s caress.

            Brian rolled over and laid on his back while Justin hovered over him.  The raw love between the two was apparent in their stares.  Never losing eye contact the two men removed their clothes.  Brian presented himself, naked, to his lover.  His cock was erect and straining towards Justin. 

            Smiling with a feral grin, Justin lifted Brian’s legs over his shoulders.  Brian’s asshole was presented to him and Justin used his fingers to caress the puckered opening.  Reaching under the pillow, Justin found the ever present lube and condom.  Sheathing his own erection, Justin went to work preparing his lover’s hole.  Brian moaned under his lover’s ministrations.  He started to fuck himself on Justin’s fingers.

            Justin quickly replaced his fingers with his cock.  Justin began thrusting into Brian with ferocious speed.  Bucking to meet his lover’s thrusts, Brian felt his balls constricting and knew he would come soon.

            Justin felt Brian’s semen splash onto his stomach and that triggered his own orgasm.  As he collapsed onto Brian’s chest, the older man tightened his arms and legs around his young lover.

            “I love you, baby.”

            “I love you too, Brian.”

            Lindsey was irate after she left the loft.  Brian’s selfishness was incredible.  The man was willing to abandon his own son to chase after his ‘blonde boy ass.’  Rationally, Lindsey knew that Justin meant so much more to Brian, but she was too angry to think rationally.  Needing to vent, the blonde called the only person she could.

            “Did you know that Brian was planning to move to Paris?”

            Cait was unfamiliar with Lindsey’s anger.  “I found out the day I picked them up at the airport.”

            “Why didn’t you tell me?”

            “Excuse me, Linds, but I don’t see how it concerned you.”

            “It doesn’t concern me?  My son will be affected by this.”

            “Are you sure it’s your son that you’re worried about?”

            Eyes blazing, Lindsey confronted her friend, “What is that supposed to mean?”

            “It means are you upset about the fact that Brian and Justin are working things out and preparing to build a life together or are you upset because you are in love with my brother?”

            “I have no idea what you are talking about.”

            “Please Lindsey.  I may not be the savvy advertising god that my brother is, but I am not stupid.  It’s obvious that you are in love with him.”

            “How is that possible?  I am a lesbian!  I am married to Melanie.”

            “Then why are you so upset?”

            Lindsey didn’t know how to answer her friend.  She had never admitted to anyone, not even Mel, the feelings she had for Brian.  “I know I’m a lesbian and I know that a relationship with Brian is not in the cards, but I never expected him to leave his family.”

            “So you are content to be with Melanie and have Brian as your best friend.  Let me ask you this, if he were to cultivate his relationship with Justin here in Pittsburgh, would you be ok with it?”

            “Of course!”

            “Welcome to the 21st century Linds. Technology links our worlds.  Brian can still have a relationship with Gus in Paris.  They can talk on the phone, video conference, and there is an invention called the airplane.”

            “I just never thought Brian would leave.”

            Cait rested her hand on Lindsey’s arm. “He needs to put Justin and their relationship first.  He would never abandon Gus, but he is not even legally his father.  You and I both know that Justin is the one chance he has for love. Don’t screw it up.”

            Melanie was waiting when Lindsey got home.  “Where have you been?”

            “I went over to Brian’s and then I had lunch with Cait.”

            “Of course, you were with Cait. How silly of me.”

            Lindsey rolled her eyes at Melanie’s outburst.  “What is your problem with my friendship with Cait?  You have been nothing but a bitch to her since she arrived.”

            “Excuse me for being worried about the fact that the lesbian Brian Kinney has arrived on the scene.”

            “What the hell is that supposed to mean?”

            “The only thing that has kept you and Brian apart is the fact that he is a fag and you are a dyke.  You’ve been in love with him for years and now the lesbian equivalent of Brian has arrived on the scene and she has become your best friend.  I apologize if that makes me a little nervous.”

            “Mel, you are talking nonsense …”

            “Whatever, I don’t want to talk about this right now.  I need to go to the bank.  I’ll see you later.”

            Brian and Justin were wrapped in each other’s arms after an intense round of lovemaking.

            “Brian, will everything be ok?”

            “Of course it will.  I love Gus and will always be there for him, but you are not someone that is expendable.  I can’t choose between you and my son, but we will find a compromise.  Lindsey is reasonable.”

            “She didn’t seem very reasonable earlier today.”

            “I’m sure she’s just in shock.  I mean who would have ever expected me to uproot my life and follow my lover to Paris?”

            Snuggling into Brian’s embrace, “I always hoped …”

            Justin’s musings were interrupted by the telephone.

            “Hello … Cait … wait, slow down … what?  Where are you?  Ok … we’ll meet you there.”

            Watching his lover’s face go pale, Justin immediately became concerned.  Bri?  What’s going on?”

            “We need to go to the hospital.”

            “The hospital?  What’s going on?”

            “Melanie’s been shot, she’s in intensive care.”

            “What???”
