I Want You to Know

Part 20

 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Jennifer sat with her son while Brian went home for clean clothes and a shower. Justin was still very weak and she worried about him. He was talking more everyday and today was the first day he was alone with his mom.

"Brian's been here the whole time?"

"He sure has, honey. It reminds me of how he sat out in that hall every night the last time you were here."

Justin looked at his mother confused, "What do you mean the last time I was here?"

"Shit, honey, I never told you because Brian asked me not to, but when you were in the coma after the bashing he sat out in that hall every night watching you sleep. The nurse told me not long after he started spending his nights here. She said he just sat out there watching you and he always left before dawn."

"Why didn't he tell me?"

"Honey, it's hard for Brian to show his feelings and I think at the time it was just too much for him to admit just what it meant."

Justin and his mother were still talking when Brian came walking back in carrying more balloons for his lover. "Hey Sunshine."

"Hi."

Justin watched his partner as he took his spot next to the bed and his mother left to go back to work for a few hours. They played several games of chess before Justin tired of it and decided to take nap. Brian stepped out for a smoke, promising to bring him back a milkshake when Justin heard the door open. Without opening his eyes he joked, "What did you smoke do it in the elevator?"

"Hi Justin, good to see you."

Startled his eyes flew open as he stared into Joshua's face, his mind flashing back to the shooting. He started to scream as he focused on Joshua's face behind the gun., Having forgotten his cigarettes, Brian heard Justin's screams as he stepped off the elevator, and ran down the hall, throwing open the door to the room.

 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

His scream sent chills down my spine and I ran towards him, desperate to protect him. Throwing open the door to find Joshua pointing a gun at my partner, without a thought about my own safety, I jumped in front of Justin as the gun went off. The force of the shot knocked me back onto the bed with Justin as the bullet ripped through my shoulder. It must have been the adrenaline because when I saw him run from the room, I was on my feet and chasing him down the corridor. Doctors and nurses were running everywhere as Joshua tried to make his escape. He was in the elevator as the doors began to close, I knew I had to make it into that elevator or he would come back for Justin. There was no way in HELL I was letting it happen again. Pushing my way through the doors just before they closed completely, I grabbed him and held him off the floor by his neck; seeing him turning blue, I yelled at him without even realizing I was doing it.

"What the fuck is your problem?  I should have killed you the first day I met you.  Luckily for you though, death is too good for you.  I plan to see you rotting in jail for a very long time for what you did to Justin, and for the rest of your life, just when you think it's finally over, I'll be there to remind you that it isn't," I shouted.

I could see the fear and hatred in his eyes, I felt the cold steel placed against my temple, for some reason I began to laugh uncontrollably. He stared at me, cocking the hammer of the .357 he held and I could tell he wasn't quite sure he had the balls to pull the trigger.

"Pull it. Go ahead, I'm not afraid of death."

The elevator doors opened and out of the corner of my eye I saw the wall of police with guns trained on Joshua. I loosen my grip on his throat and dropped him, then stepped over his body on the floor. I walked past Horvath and straight to the stairs, with him hot on my heels.

"Brian. BRIAN," he yelled after me every few steps. I finally stopped and looked back at him.

"What?"

"You're bleeding all over the place, maybe you should stop and let one of the docs check that wound out."

"NO, Not until I know that Justin is okay." His face blurred before me and I swayed slightly from the loss of blood, but continued up the stairs to Justin. Horvath put his arm around me and helped me up the stairs, basically carrying me the last four flights. I was still amazed at how far he had come since entering in our lives. I stumbled into Justin's room with his help, as he yelled for a doctor. I was out of breath and barely conscious by the time the doctor came to tend to my wound.

"Brian, we need to get you into a room and get this taken care of, " the doctor was telling me, his voice sounding so far away.

"No! I'm staying here with Justin. I'm not leaving him." I stood to move closer to my lover, as the room began to spin. Justin looked at me with concern.

"Brian honey, just go with them, I'm fine. Horvath will stay here with me."

"I said I'm not going anywhere. I'm not leaving you ever again." Collapsing on the edge of his bed and closing my eyes trying to keep the blinding pain at bay. I heard the doctor telling a nurse to bring in a bed and set it up next to Justin's. Laying on the bed with my eyes closed, they moved me to the other bed and cut away my shirt.. I flinched as they cleaned the wound and poked around looking for the bullet. I could hear Justin talking to the doctor as he inspected the damage.

"Is he going to be ok?"

"No! I'm not going to be ok, they just cut a $100 shirt off of me, AND it's covered in blood."

Justin sat laughing at my drama queen moment as the doctor spoke to him. "He should be fine, the bullet made a clean exit, I need to clean the wound and close it up. It appears you will be having a roommate for the next few days or so."

"I couldn't ask for a better one then. Just make sure you give him something for the pain so I don't have to listen to his bitching."

 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Four weeks later the boys were discharged together. Brian had gotten an infection and had to stay longer than expected because of it, but everyone knew it was because the doctor had a crush on the two men in the room. It was the running joke between the friends.

As they were wheeled out of their room, the doctor filled them in on a few of the rules they needed to follow.

"No strenuous physical activity for two weeks, do you understand?"

When he got no answer he stood before them and clarified what he meant. "Brian, Justin, I'm not just blowing hot air here, no sex for two weeks. That means no blow jobs, and no hand jobs,  and no masturbating."

Brian looked at Justin and stuck out his tongue, running it sexily across his lips and the doctor caught the small movement. Shaking his head, he turned around mumbling to himself as he walked away.

After getting settled in at Jennifer's, the two men sat in bed holding hands and talking about everything that had happened since the shooting. Justin had been dying to know since he woke up, but Brian had made him wait until he was home and out of danger.

"So okay, spill it, what the hell has the gang been up to since I checked out for a bit. No one has told me shit."

"Okay, after Mel died, Julie moved in with Linds. They are getting too close for comfort if you ask me. Julie has decided to move here and Lindsay has asked her to move in with her and Gus. I think Lindsay may find herself in love before it's all over. Julie told me that Melanie asked her to take care of Linds before she died and I think that Julie would be more than happy to take Mel's place as the queen muncher. Jules has applied for a position teaching graphic arts at PIFA this coming semester and Lindsay goes back to work next week."

"Tell me about Melanie's funeral," Justin asked trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall while he listened to Brian going on about the service.

"It was nice, I didn't want to go, but Lindsay begged me. I'm glad I did though. I may not have liked her much, or gotten along really well with her, but she was family. Gus is still having a hard time dealing with her death. Lindsay told me that he still wakes screaming for his mama and he asks to see her all the time."

"It must be so hard for him. Brian you should be with your son, not here with me."

"I'm right where I belong, besides once you're healthy again, we're going house hunting. Then Gus can come stay with us for a few days while Lindsay explores this thing with Jules. Think you can handle two Kinney men in the same house?"

"Yeah, I think I can handle that, at least one of them listens and does what he's told most of the time."

Brian laughed at his lover and they settled in for a nap, holding one another as they slept.

 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Two weeks later we sat in the doctor's office together and listened as he gave us the all clear. I could see the glint in Justin's eye as he gave me that smile that meant he wanted to fuck. Grabbing his hand I pulled him out the door and down the hall. As we waited for the elevator I could barely keep my hands off of him. Once inside I pulled him close for a kiss that sent chills down my spine. He opened his lips to allow my tongue entrance and I slipped it into the warmth of his mouth. He sucked on my tongue lightly before moaning into the kiss. I held him close enough to feel the hard on that strained against his jeans, feeling my own pants growing tighter by the second. It was only when the elevator stopped that I pulled away from him, smiling down at him as we stepped out.

Once in the car I sat staring at him and he laughed at me. His laugh sounded like music to my ears; it wasn't that long ago that he wouldn't even speak to me, let alone laugh with me.

"I've missed you Brian. I've missed this," he smiled that smile that lit up the world and I kissed him softly.

"God baby you have no idea how much I've missed you. When you were lying there in that coma, I thought I had lost you, I begged God to take me instead. I would have done anything to just have one more day, one more hour with you, don't you ever scare me like that again."

"Believe me I have no intention of ever doing that again. Let's go home Brian."

"Baby, in case you forgot, we don't have a home, we live with your mother."

"Better than living with yours," he teased me and I had to laugh, because he was more accurate than he knew. We walked into the house to find it full of friends yelling surprise. The banner over the fireplace read, 'Welcome back'. I kissed Jennifer and Lindsay, before pulling Justin close again, I wasn't letting him out of my sight, at least not until I had the chance to have him beneath me again.

As the evening wore on I could tell he was just as anxious to escape as I was, and we were trying to head up the stairs unnoticed when Debbie stopped us.

"Oh fuck, no you don't. NO escaping yet. Come back down here and sit down."

We did as she said, knowing that if we didn't she'd follow us upstairs. Sitting down, I pulled Justin onto my lap, my cock leaping at the feel of him so close. Closing my eyes, moaning softly into his ear as he leaned against me, "Fuck I need you," I whispered in his ear.

"HEY lovebirds, pay attention," Vic yelled at us to get our attention. Giving him a dirty look, they all laughed at us, knowing just what we wanted to be doing. It was Michael who spoke next.

"We're all glad you two came to your senses and worked this out, it's just a damn shame it took a fucking bullet to wake you up. But that's over now and well look at you, you're living at home with Sunshine's mommy."

"No nookie tonight, " Teddy teased and I shot him an evil look which made him pull Emmett closer.

"So Brian have you ever gone this long without dick? Oh wait there was that time between birth and two," Emmett laughed at his own joke so hard he didn't see the way Justin was looking at him. I burst out laughing at Justin's evil look.

Jennifer stood next to speak, "Ok well no mother likes to think of her son with their partner, least of all me. You know I love you sweetheart, but well when your partner is the stuff wet dreams are made of, it's kinda hard on a mother. You two have been through so much to get back here and I want tonight to be special for you. We all got together and planned a night you won't soon forget."

She handed Justin an envelope, as he opened it he read it before handing it to me. Scanning the words I saw that they had booked us into the honeymoon suite at the nicest hotel in town. Justin stood and pulled me to my feet, looking around at our family before speaking, "Ok well it's been fun and all but I'm sorry we have to go." He pulled me out the door to their laughter.

Once we were in the hotel room, Justin pushed me against the door, kissing me intensely. His fingers were on the buttons of my shirt, as he fumbled one too many times, finally ripping the shirt off of me. Laughing as I heard the buttons hitting the floor, I let him continue his assault on my body for a few more minutes until I couldn't stand it any longer. I picked him up, throwing him over my shoulder, carrying him to the bed, and gently laying him down. As I leaned over him, the silver chain that held his wedding band, dangled above him. He reached up, fingering the silver band with a sad look in his eyes. Pulling back from him, sitting on the edge of the bed, I took the chain off, sliding the ring off the chain. Holding the ring out to him, he gave me his hand, I slipped the band back on.

"Right where it belongs," I smiled at my partner before leaning towards him to kiss him again. "I love you," I whispered as I slid down over his body. His cock was hard and dripping precum as I took it in my mouth, lapping at the salty sweetness of him, continuing to lick and suck on his cock until I felt the tightening and quivering that meant he was ready to cum. I drank in every drop of him, kissing him so he could taste himself on my lips. My own cock was screaming for attention but I took a taunt nipple in my mouth, flicking my tongue over it, teasing him, focusing on pleasing my lover. Trailing his body with hot wet kisses, I rolled him over to expose his soft ass and ran my tongue down his back, stopping  just at the crack. Spreading his cheeks and admiring the tight pucker that was begging for attention. Stiffening my tongue I licked around the hole before pushing in. His moans were all it took for me to lose control. I pulled back and opened the lube, squirting it onto my dick, and my fingers. Pushing first one finger in, then two, then three, readying him for my cock. When he was stretched and lubed I pushed into him, and began to thrust slowly at first. He moved against my cock, as I pressed against his prostate, when he tightened around me I was lost. Quickening my thrusts, I came into him with a scream.

We lay together, his head on my chest, my fingers absent-mindedly tracing the scar that ran along his chest. He sighed contentedly and I smiled knowing that we were on our way back, back to our life together. It was only when he told me he loved me again that I began to think about wanting more from our marriage. My mind began to form the plan on how to convince him that what I was about to suggest would be the best thing we could ever do together.
