Jake pulled Brian away from Chris before he killed him.  He made sure that Brian walked in front of him and watch his back.  Chris was a tricky bastard and he wasn’t going to take any chances.  Once they were outside, he pulled out a cigarette and passed it to Brian.

“You can’t kill him now.”  Jake said.  “If he has Gus, we need him alive.  God knows where he is hiding him.”

Brian let a tear fall and quickly cleared it.  He took a long drag of the cigarette feeling the burn on his throat.  Jake pretended like he hadn’t seen anything.

“Brian, what do you want me to do?”  Jake asked.

“Called Mason and Rick.  Tell them to get down here as fast as they can.”

Jake nodded.

“Are you going to tell Justin what happened?  What Chris is doing?”  Jake asked.  “Are you going to ask?”

Brian shook his head and threw the cigarette on the floor. 

“And neither are you.”

Jake nodded and the two of them walked back the path they had come through.  He would wait patiently and when the time was right he was going to make sure Chris paid for taking his brother away from him.

Brian entered the pool house after Justin.  He smiled at how they always seem to end up there after every bad situation they experienced.  He looked at Justin taking off his clothes and walking to the bedroom.  He followed him in silence.  Brian entered the room and Justin helped him undress.

They moved to the bed where Justin laid on his back with his legs sprawled waiting for Brian to do with him whatever he wanted.  Brian got on top of Justin and started kissing, biting and sucking Justin everywhere.  He took hold of Justin’s hips and pulled the blonde to him as he thrust down.  

“Brian.”  Justin groaned and rubbed against his boyfriend.

Brian quickly reached for a condom and put it on.  He stuck two fingers inside Justin’s mouth and Justin licked and wetted them.  Brian pulled his fingers away and then started to open Justin for him.  Justin closed his eyes when he felt the tip of Brian’s cock at his entrance.  Brian had barely prepared him and he knew it was going to hurt, but he didn’t care.  Justin wanted Brian to be able to use his body as he saw fit.

“Justin.”  Brian groaned when he was all the way in.

Brian started thrust his dick inside Justin’s.  Justin started to breathe again once the pain faded away.  He opened his eyes and saw the tears flowing down on Brian’s face.  He held Brian tight to him as he kissed him.  He kept on cleaning the tears away but fresh ones replaced the old ones.

“I love you.”  Justin whispered.

Brian closed his eyes and pushed once more into Justin and he reached nirvana.   When he opened his eyes to look at Justin, a pair of blue eyes were staring back at him.  Brian knew at that moment that he couldn’t ask Justin to risk his life just so he could get his son back.  He pulled out of Justin and got rid of the condom.  He tried to move down to take care of Justin’s erection but was stopped by the blonde.

“Hold me.”  Justin whispered.

Brian moved up so he was next to Justin.  He collected the younger man in his arms.  Justin took a deep breath and tried not to cry, but he couldn’t help it.  Everything was so screw up and the blonde thought it was his fault.  Ben was dead and it was all because of him.  Brian kept brushing Justin’s tears away with no avail as his owns tears fell down.

Jake closed the door to the bathroom and moved to the closet.

“Where are you going?”  Kevin asked.

“I have to help Brian find Gus.”  Jake said as he put on a pair of briefs.

“You just got here.”  

“Not now, Kevin.”  Jake said.

“Ben is dead.”  Kevin hissed.  “And you seem like you haven’t acknowledge that fact yet.”

“I know my brother is dead.”  Jake said dryly and tightened his jaw.

Kevin walked towards Jake and turned him around.

“Let me go.”  Jake yelled.

“He’s not coming back.  He’s never coming back.”  Kevin said as his eyes got watery.

“Fuck you!  Fuck you, Kevin!”  Jake shouted and punched Kevin on the chest.

Jake didn’t know what came over him.  He started punching and pushing Kevin angrily.  Kevin grabbed Jake’s hand and pushed him back in the bed.  He got on top of him and held him tightly.  Jake tried to push him away but Kevin had a good hold on him.

“It’s okay.  It’s okay.”  Kevin kept murmuring.

Jake wondered why Kevin kept saying it was okay and kissing his eyes.  Then he realized that he was crying.  He didn’t want to cry.  He didn’t want it to be true.  He stopped pushing Kevin away and embraced him tightly.  He let the tears fall until everything faded away.  Kevin held Jake’s body and watched him sleep.  He would do anything to protect his baby even if he had to kill Chris himself.

Justin walked out of the house with a tray full of food and Rick behind him.  He smiled at the man as he started walking to the pool house.  He needed to see Brian.  He was happy that his mom had stopped fawning over him and his father hadn’t said anything to him.  Justin opened the door and told Rick to stay outside.

“Brian?”  Justin asked as he put the food on the table.

“What?”  Brian asked, coming out of the bathroom.

Justin looked at his boyfriend and frowned.  He knew Brian was going out yet again.

“Where are you going?”  Justin asked.

“I have to go do something.”  Brian said.

“Brian, what are you not telling me?  There’s something wrong.”  Justin said.

Brian took a deep breath and rolled his lips inside his mouth.

“Tell me.”

“Chris has Gus.”

Justin’s eyes opened wide.

“What?!”  Justin asked shocked.

“He kidnapped him.”  Brian said as he moved closer to Justin.

Justin hugged him and kissed him on the neck.  Brian held on tight to Justin.

“I have to go out and see if I can find anything that’s going to help me find my son.”  Brian said.

Justin nodded and let go of Brian.  Brian turned around to go when Justin’s voice stopped him.

“Why would he do that, Brian?  Gus never did anything to him.  He’s just a baby.”

Brian swallowed and turned to look at Justin.

“He wants to trade him.”  Brian said.

Justin stared at him, not sure what that meant.  He looked into Brian’s sad eyes and the light bulb went on.

“Oh.”  Justin said.

Brian walked over to Justin and kissed him before he caressed his face.

“Don’t worry.  You will be safe.”  Brian whispered.  “I have to go.”

Brian then let go of his blonde and walked away.

“I’ll do it.”  Justin told him.

“What?”  Brian asked turning around.

“I’ll do anything to get your son back.”

“No, Justin.”  Brian said softly.  “You don’t have to do this.”

“Gus must be scared to death, Brian.  If Chris wants me for him, then we’ll do it.”  Justin said.

Brian tightened his jaw not sure what to say or do.  He didn’t want Justin to put himself in danger because of Chris’s sick, twisted mind.

“I’m going to go and find him on my own.  You stay here with Rick.”

“Brian, you are ignoring me.”  Justin told him.

“I heard you.  You are not going to do it.”

“I am!”  Justin shouted.

Brian walked towards Justin and grabbed him by the neck and pushed him against the wall.

“No!  I’m not going to lose you too.”  Brian hissed.

Justin tried to push Brian away but gave up when he saw that he couldn’t.  He looked up in Brian’s eyes and saw that his man was hurting.

“You won’t.”  Justin whispered.

Brian bent down and kissed Justin hard.  He poured all the love he had in the kiss before he pulled back.

“I’ll call you later.  I really have to go.”  Brian murmured.

Justin nodded and watched Brian walking away to the doors.

“I’m still going to do it.”  Justin said.

Brian turned around and glared at Justin.

“Are you fucking deaf?” Brian asked.  “I said no.”

“And I said yes.”  Justin said calmly.

“You are not doing this.”  Brian hissed.

“You cannot stop me!”

Brian took a deep breath and rubbed his face.

“Justin, don’t make me mad.”  Brian hissed.

“I’ll go down to the police even if I had to sneak out.  We have to save Gus!”  Justin told him.

Brian looked at him and he was sure that Justin loved him as much or even more than he loved the blonde.  Now he just needed to find some rope to tie Justin down and stop him from doing something stupid.
