You Have Got To Be Kidding Me!
Instead of Being There For His Mother He Was At A Comic Book Convention!?!?!
Everyone dropped what they were doing to rush to Deb's side but because Michael wasn't getting his way yet again he thought it was more important to stay to get an autograph comic???
WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Brian is scared that he won't be able to make decisions for Justin in case of an emergency and vice versa he wants the man he loves to be protected along with Gus, the new baby and Jenny while all Michael can do is think of himself.
How many does Michael think he has before everyone walks away for good?
Nice to know his priorities wasn't Carl or Deb but a Damn COMIC BOOK!!! <SMH>

I can just see it now, when Mikey returns it is all going to be about him and how he is right that Brian, Justin, Mel, Linz and the kids need to more back to the Pitts, to be there for him
Fantastic update , even if Carl got shot.
Thanks for sharing, looking forward to next, Please and thank you!

Thank Goodness Carl is okay and that the family came to help Deb through this trying time, since Michael was too busy pouting or running to find out why everyone was calling him.
Happy that Brian told Justin the final truth now there are no secrets between them anymore.
Ben living at the loft is insignificant compared to Deb needing her son to comfort her while she waited to hear about Carl, he needs to realize that the world does not revolve around him and that scary things happen all the time, hiding behind Brian or his unwanted advice will not stop it from happening.

Wow, Mikey just refuses to understand what is important. He deserves his pain if he continues thus way.
Carl shot! Oh cripes! I know he's fine but omg. Now he and Deb need to marry cuz life is short.

Oh Michael. and he wonders why he's havingso many problems. They are all self inflicted. He's wanting everyone to solved his problems for him, or even better, just sweep them under the carpet for no one to see. He goes to talk to Brian and whines and makes excuses. Then he runs off because of what he hears about Ben staying in the loft. Like Brian said, he's pissed because of the issue with the loft, nothing about Ben himself. I'm wondering if there really is any hope for the guy.
Oh NO!! Carl!! Oh thank goodness it looks like he's going to be OK, but oh man...what a fright. And deb...not being able to hear anything about him. thankfully his daughter gave her permission. Where is Michael? HE mentioned that he's a couple of hours away? Where was he going? Was he going to Toronto? Driving aimlessly? My first thought was Dr. Dave...but then isn't he still in Portland? I just can't imagine where he was heading to. I thought he was racing off to the loft....I guess I'll just have to wait adn see. :)
Nice that Brian told Justin the truth about hsi stay in teh hospital. All secrets are now out. A heavy burden lifted.
Terrific!!
Cheers

Michael doesn't get it. He still expects someone else, in this case Brian, to tell him what to do. Strange that Michael thinks talking will help him with his problems, it hasn't help yet. Oh dear, Michael found out that Ben is staying in Brian's loft. The shit is about to hit the fan. I was sad to hear that Carl had been shot and that Deb couldn't find out anything because she's not considered family. Perhaps this will change her mind about marrying Carl? So everyone ended up at the hospital but Michael. Where was he? I mean Ben's at the hospital so he's not at the loft. And he says it's going to take a few hours to get to the hospital. It's a mystery! At least Brian finally admitted he was at the hospital every night all those years ago. Your next chapter should prove very interesting.

OMG, Carl... and Deb must be a wreck!!!
Selfish Michael... at least the rest of the family was there for Deb when she needed family... it shows who truly cares!

I'm glad Carl is going to be okay.
Can't wait to see what happens once everyone is at Britin.
Date: Jan 12, 2017 3:43 pm Title: Chapter 31
even with his big epiphany... Michael just wont do what he needs to do to actually get any better!
Date: Jan 12, 2017 1:24 pm Title: Chapter 31
'Help' is definitely not helping Michael. Justin really should buy Michael out of the comic but Michael wouldn't be agreeable since it's the only thing that really keeps Michael in Brian and Justin's life. Then for him to tell Justin he needs to see a therapist because he's ruining the comic by not talking to him... WHEW!!! Please write me into the story as a bulldozer that runs Michael over!
I really hope that Ben is moving on because there really is no hope for Michael. A person has to want help and it's clear that Michael doesn't. He wants everything ideal in his little world and that's just not going to happen. He's like an addict. Until he hits rock bottom and has nowhere else to turn, he won't make one right decision for himself.
Looking forward to MORE!
Happy Writing and HUGS,

I loved Gus and Brian's talk. He's so adorable.
Michael needs to realize he is the problem and not everyone else. Thanks for the update.

Thanks for the time jump. Michael really needs help.

Wow. When did he realize that? Is he going to get things right?
[Report This]Date: Jan 11, 2017 11:55 pm Title: Chapter 30
What will Michael think when he finds out Ben is living in the loft? While Alex tries to get Michael to see why people were upset with the things he was doing Michael just twisted to they should have informed him of what they were doing. Is Michael really gay or did he go that way because his mother told him he was and because Brian was? He's one selfish dude. Alex's wanting Michael to think about things he did that caused problems isn't going to work. Michael doesn't believe he caused any problems. He's hopeless.
Date: Jan 11, 2017 11:22 pm Title: Chapter 30
You know...I had high hopes for Michael when he had that appointment with alex. He seemed to be moving in the right direction. Alas...he just doesn't get it. It's everyone else's responsibility to make him happy. Never change. Keep things they way they were in teh past. He doesn't think beyond his own wants. It's not necessarily malicious in this instance, at least not entirely, but his selfishness and thoughtlessnes is what has been causing most of his problems. The fact that he stated he wouldn't move with Ben says alot about his thoughts on their relationship. He doesn't see that everyone around him hsa had enough, but he thinks they should all bend to his wants. So frustrating. I'm sure Alex is wanting to bang his head on something very hard out of comtlete and utter frustration.
Really not sure if there is any hope for Ben and Michael here. Not unless Michael has some incredible epiphany, like some light from teh heavens coming down upon him to enlighten him somehow. I think Ben has the right idea of living in teh loft for now. Pretty sure that's not going to go over well, but oh well.

Aaargh he's so annoying, poor Alex. Excellent as always

I wish Michael would take responsibility for his own actions and quit blaming everyone else.

Wow he really is an idiot.

And he still doesn't get it
Date: Jan 11, 2017 1:16 am Title: Chapter 29
I'm probably going to get Booed BUT although I hope Michael gets mental help, I really hope that Ben does NOT go back to him. As my mom says, "You are responsible for your own mental health. If someone is driving you to think you're crazy, you need to let their crazy asses GO!" Michael is NOT a healthy choice for Ben nor Hunter. IMHO they all need fresh starts. The one-sided broken relationship is far beyond repair, Michael has done too little to keep his marriage together and said too much with his latest tantrum. He should have to live with that without Ben (and for that matter, Debbie) constantly excusing his inconsiderate, boorish behavior. Incessant whining ruined his relationship with David and Inconsistency and inaction ruined his relationship with Ben. He doesn't need to be in a relationship while he's just beginning therapy (if he is in fact going to see Alex). He needs to take the time to work on himself so that maybe the third time will be the charm and he won't project his irrational fears on his partner first and his daughter, secondly and friends.

Oh I hope for everyone's sake that Michael really does call Alex. That he really does talk to alex and that he really will listen. Not just hear what he wants to hear. that he will make an effort in his relationships adn not expect everyone to live as HE wants them to. He needs to deal with a lot of his own issues. Let's face it, there are a TON of them!! Perhaps once he starts doing that he'll see that he's expecting to much from those around him. I don't think Ben is going to keep holding on to hope for much longer. Curious as to how Michael is goingto react about the possibility of Ben staying in teh loft for a bit. could go either way....
Very good chapter!!

it's because Michael only thinks of himself... nothing in the world happens unless it effects him in some way and that is the only thing that matters... hmmm, not that Mel could be having another baby, or maybe that people could eat a meal without having to ask your permission first.
I'm not sure Alex can help the self-centered asshole... (yeah I know i'm biased, I really don't like Mikey lol)
Date: Jan 10, 2017 12:54 pm Title: Chapter 29
Brian is so sweet furnishing the house to get it ready for his Sunshine😙Justin having doubts to sell the loft because it's where his most memorable moment with Brian and a lot of memories would be left behind with it..But i guess they should move on..😊
Oooh i like Jen's idea to ask Brian for renting out the loft to Ben,but i'm sure Brian won't ask for any money for it..
Michael should realize that he's losing everyone already..If only he could continue seeing Alex after this one,it might help him see thing through of what's happening around his family..
Great chapter again..Thanks😘

Brian is such a romantic. Although I'll miss the loft, they would need a bigger place with everyone should they need to come to Pittsburgh. Can't wait for the next chapter.
