I'm really relieved now that I know that Brian's hesitation was about his age. I can totally understand that. Emmett and Ted are great friends and said exactly the right things.
Author's Response:
Brian has realized that Emmett and Ted are much better friends than Michael ever was.
Thanks

Mmh, I don't like Brian's reaction when Justin started talking about Keegan living with them. I hope it won't cause something bad between Brian and Justin.
Author's Response:
Brian is nervous.
He never considered having a child to raise.
Thanks

That was so beautifully written, very sad but also very good. It made me cry. Thank you for doing such a great job.

Thank you so much.
We cried writing it too.

I'm really glad Keegan is Justin's son. And I have to repeat myself: Curtis is an ass. Thankfully Brian and Justin are so good together that Justin has someone to hold on to during these hard times.
Author's Response:
We like Brian an Justin together.
They are wonderful parents.
Curtis is definitely an ass and will be even more of one soon.
Thanks

Curtis is an ass. Poor Daphne, what a big loss. I hope there will be no problems with Brian and Justin taking the baby.
Author's Response:
Our story will have a happy ending.

What happened to Daphne? I have to read more. Also I think it's normal for a new dad to be a little bit scared. I hope that's all it is with Curtis.
Author's Response:
Daphne dies, that is what the story revolves around.
Most new fathers would be worried but not as bad as Curtis.
Thanks

A very happy ending. However, what happened to Micheal's storyline? Lindsay's ended with her getting help, but did I somehow miss the wrap up for Michael's?
Author's Response:
Sorry about that.
Michael, after being thrown out of the psych ward went back to his pitiful life due to his own actions.
No friends, no family, no money.
Karma wins again.
Thanks

A very happy and satisfied reader! A bit sad as I always am at the end of a terrific fic. It's funny how you anticipate each update adn madly find the time to read it, (even if one is at work....) and we look forward to seeing how the writer is going to wrap it all up in a proper way. Yet, once it gets to that point, there's a sense of mourning, sad for it to be over.
thanks you ladies for sharing this wonderful fic with us all! so much happens, so many emotions.
It's been a joy to read.
cheers,
Elaine
Author's Response:
Elaine,
You're not the only one that was sad that it was over. Some of us cried.
Glad you enjoyed the story.

I started this fic this morning... every little break I had this open on my phone (not my preferred) but once I started it, I couldn't stop.... I had a hair appointment tonight (nice long 3 hour appointment) and I am about halfway done already... I want to keep reading it tonight, but I am so busy during my days right now, I HAVE to get some sleep.
I hope to finish this tomorrow... can't get enough... thank you for finishing so that I can read this!!!

So glad that you finally got to read this story.

I will miss this great story, it was an enthralling combination of angst with Daphne's death and the trial, and the realisation of the power of the strong bonds of love between Brian and Justin combined with the support of their true friends. Compelling reading.
Author's Response:
Very happy that you enjoyed this story.

Nice of Delia and Lamar to offer to help the guys. Really sweet.

Nice chapter.
Dud Curtis really think Mel would help him? He just couldn't find another lawyer who would take his case. Ha!.
Author's Response:
Curtis wanted a good lawyer and knew that Mel was the best. Too bad for him thst she has too much integrity to help.
Thanks
