Post 5-13. Brian ends all contact with Justin from one day to the other and Justin has no idea why. After five years in New York he returns to Pittsburgh and goes looking for answers that are long overdue. His whole life will be changed forever when he finally gets the answers he has been looking for. 

Sequel to "Filled Silence" set in the Post-Stockwell Era, Brian and Justin makes some decisions that will redefine their definition of the word 'relationship'. Although inspired by the concepts within "The Experiment" by Wren and "The Dare" by Edom, it's my take on what should have happened in the series. ENJOY!!!

To the Wonderful and Talented Lorie Austin, Thanks for being my beta, but most of all, my friend. I couldn't do what I do without you.

Justin's life is spent alone, only being sought out for his mind, and Brian for his body. Only Justin sees past the party boy to the man Brian really is. Justin can’t relate to people or why they do things and lives a solitary life because of it. He watches Brian, only because Brian quiets the mind he can't shut off. Brian watches Justin, not understanding why he needs to know more about Justin. 

This is from Deb Tanner's plot bunny, Lindsay leaves Pittsburgh after she lied to everyone saying Brian impregnated her the old fashioned way. She meets Justin, who she never figures out is weathy but still uses to take care of Gus for her. Leaving Gus with Justin after a year. He finds out the woman he knew never existed, and the child he loves is his when he's listed as the father on the birth certificate.

Lorie, as always you inspire me with all your cheers, and Deb thank you for coming up with interesting stories, and also writing ones I love too.

Sometimes love comes into your life when you least expect it.

Suzvoy has taken episode 510 and turned it on its head!  Everything is canon except one thing... Take a read and see how Brian is Brian and yet grows and learns how to love - mamaduck

This story is a serious AU, based on episode 510. Knowledge of this would be a distinct advantage, and if you haven't seen it then this fic could be considered a big ol' spoiler for what happens in said ep.

Justin did not go back to Brian after that first night. He goes to live with his cousin in New York.

Justin has a secret and has no idea how to deal with it. This takes place when the loft was robbed and instead of Justin running off to New York with Brian's credit card, he runs off to Ohio to live with his cousin. Who is his cousin?
