This is the chapter that is hardest to read because of the pain that Brian went through.  However thankfully I've read this before and know that Brian is a survivor.  Also that Emmett is a wonderful friend.  I have to admit it seems like the gang in NY instinctively know somethings wrong.  Daphne defending Brian while Debbie talks smack.   Boy is she going to regret her words.

You have to love Daphne.  She has a way of seeing through everyone.  I agree with her assessments. Love how Ben told Mel to shut up.  She's so easy to put in a bad light because of the many times she worded exactly those sentiments.  Michael also could be seen the same way.  Deb is way too harsh and just pissed Justin off.

It's so funny how I am desperate for Brian and Justin to get back together, but so happy about Brian and Chris LOL. These boys are hot - and Brian does need something now, he needs to feel wanted.

WAIT, what the actual fuck??? Have I missed something or did you only just say that Craig, Stockwell and Hobbs are a part of this. I mean, we knew Stockwell was back, but omg, I feel like I may have missed something LOL. Haven't,  right?

Cynthia, oh you, she knows what she's doing by sending Justin to the loft, smart loft. Brian will kill her LOL

Brian promising to come back and haunt people is brilliant.

Ted is soooo annoying omg.  And won't they figure out where he's gone sooner or later? God,  Brian, you are such a pain in the ass, but that's why I love ya lol

That Emmett was the victim of a hate crime was a nice touch and I think I used it in one of my stories not remembering where I got the idea from.  Love how Lance and Drew are looking out for Brian who is looking out for Emmett.  Ya did good.

The last part of this chapter gave me so many feels omg, I just can't. I thought it would be Justin coming in to help at the end, but I didn't think it would be, so when it was I was so happy. And I love that Chris and Justin are getting along, they need to. But my heart really is breaking for Justin. He loves Brian so much and he just wants to be there for him. And Brian wants it too, but he loves Justin too much to allow him to be,

Chris is sooooooo going to fall in love with Brian, isn't he? I mean, how could he not LOL. But poor Justin, he literally had his heart ripped out in front of him. It was lovely that Gus got to see him though, and I knew the kid wouldn't be scared. Kids are stronger and braver than us, we never give them enough credit.

I know he's trying to protect Justin, but it's going to cause them both so much pain along the way *shakes fist* it better be worth it, Mr. Kinney.

I hope they find a way to pay back those sicko creeps that took pictures and sold them to the press, they deserve all that would come their way.

Seriously, Cynthia in this is just freaking amazing and so perfect for how I think their relationship was. She won't let ANYONE hurt him if she can help it. Bring in Justin, although, I have a feeling Brian might not be AS happy to see him. He'll be so scared :(

YAY Justin and Brian have been reunited. The shell bracelet was a lovely touch.

I feel that Justin and Matt will clash, but they're both fighting for the same thing, for Brian to be okay. I can't wait to see what happens. 

I seriously adore Matt, like legit crushing on him hehe!!!

I still need to go to bed, bloody hell!

Justin is on his way, yay. BUT, will he be safe???????????????

I'm crying, and I already love this Matt guy... seriously, I need to go to bed, but can't stop reading!!!!!!
