Summary: The guys finally arrive at the island. Justin has a bad feeling but Brian tells him everything is going to be okay.
AN: Thanks to my beta.
Justin groaned as he sat up in the bed. He rubbed his face and looked next to him to see that Brian was gone. He threw the sheets away and got up. The door to the chambers opened and Brian came in with a tray of food.
“I was about to wake you up,” Brian told him. “You’ve been sleeping all morning.”
“Why didn’t you wake me up before?” Justin asked stretching. “God, I’m so fucking sore.”
“Me too,” Brian said putting the tray on the night table besides the bed. Then he moved towards the blond and caressed his face before he kissed him. “It was great,” he purred.
Justin felt his cock stirring. “Brian,” he moaned. “Fuck me.”
Brian smiled and took a step back. “I was thinking about what you said,” the brunet said with a little smile in place. “If you want to go I’m no one to stop you.”
Justin raised a brow. “Oh?”
“Yeah,” Brian said nodding and put his hands on his hips. “I shouldn’t keep you here against your will.”
“Okay,” Justin said as he marched to the dresser and opened the drawer where his clothes were. “Let me just get my things,” he said as he pulled out a stack of briefs. “I’ll pack as quick as I can.”
“Come here,” Brian said following the blond. “You’re not going anywhere. I’m not letting you go.”
“I don’t want you to,” Justin said after chuckling a bit when Brian embraced him. He put the briefs back but didn't bothered to close the drawer. The two of them moved back to the bed. The blond sighed and lay in bed with the brunet. “I’m sorry about everything, Brian.”
“Me too,” Brian whispered. “I never meant for you to get hurt.”
Justin moved so he could straddle the brunet. He leaned towards the tray of food and grabbed a few grapes. “I was acting like an idiot. I just got so mad because of what I saw and I thought...Jesus. I thought you have gotten bored of me,” he said and popped a grape in his mouth.
Brian caressed Justin’s naked chest. “Never," he said and opened his mouth to receive the food the blond was giving him.
Justin looked away with a frown in place. He couldn’t believe how things had turned out. “You saw me kissing him.”
“I did,” Brian answered. He sighed not sure what to think. “I just…well I thought that if you were with him once it would be okay but then…that’s not how I really felt. I wanted to kill him. I know you haven’t been with anyone else and you might wonder…it’s normal.”
Justin stayed quiet and listened to the captain. He had surely been wondering what it would have been like to be with Brendan.
“And I should let you experiment…at least that’s what I was telling myself when I saw you. I just walked away and hoped that you would find your way back to me,” Brian said and laughed then. “And then I came to my senses and wanted to kill him but since you had walked away the first time I let it slip.”
“And then came the second time and after…what had happened with your brother,” Justin pointed out.
“I really wanted to kill him,” Brian admitted and shrugged.
“I didn’t trust you,” Justin pointed out. “I thought the worst and didn’t even let you explain.”
“I kind of did the same to you afterwards,” Brian said as he caressed the blond’s back. “I guess we are even.”
“Do you think this will happen again?” Justin asked and ate the last grape he had taken.
“I don’t know,” Brian replied sincerely. He pulled Justin closer and kissed him on the forehead. “But next time which I hope it doesn’t happen, we should sit down and talk to each other.”
Justin nodded.
“No matter what happens,” Brian told him.
Justin nodded and got on his knees, straddling the brunet. He smiled wickedly as he started to rub Brian’s naked chest. “I don’t want anyone else but you, Brian.”
Brian sat up and pulled the blond closer to him by the back of his neck. He kissed the blond with force. The man turned them around and quickly pulled Justin’s shorts away. He stopped for a second just to enjoy the blond’s body.
“Brian,” Justin said feeling a bit coy under Brian’s scrutiny. He looked down at the bed and bit his lower lip.
“God,” Brian growled as he leaned forward to be able to touch Justin.
Justin sighed and closed his eyes. Brian’s hands roamed his body and it was heaven. Every caress, every touch, every scrape, everything that the captain did to him was amazing. Justin moved his hand to his cock and moaned.
“Naughty,” Brian murmured with a smile in place. He bent down and captured Justin’s mouth. They shared an intense, wet kiss. He pulled back to take off his trunks and wife beater. Then he went back to kiss his blond boy.
“Brian, please,” Justin gasped out when Brian pulled away. “I want you inside of me.”
Brian backed away and kneeled on the bed. He moved to the side and grabbed the lube. He squirted some on his left hand and then covered his dick with it. “Come here,” he said grabbing Justin by the legs and pulling the blond towards him.
“Brian,” Justin gasped out surprised.
Brian gave him a wicked smile his hand grabbing his cock as he placed it at Justin’s hole. They kept their eyes open as Brian started to push inside the smaller man. The blond’s head drop back a bit but he didn’t stop looking at the brunet. His body tensed up as his man took him.
“You like it,” Brian said leaning forward and with a final push he was inside. "Rough and hard."
“Ahh,” Justin whimpered, his hands reaching out to hold on to Brian. His legs curled around the taller man. He burried his nails on the brunet's skin and gasped out in pain.
Brian bit Justin on the neck and started rocking inside of Justin. He moved to the right side of Justin’s neck and started sucking. His tongue running up to the blond’s earlobe leaving a wet path.
“I love you,” Justin groaned as his hands grabbed Brian’s face and pulled him for a kiss.
Brian started moving then. Justin’s hole was tight and wet for him. He loved to take the blond without any barriers. He felt his being connected to his boy.
“God,” Justin said shaking with pleasure. “Fuck me!”
The captain’s arms moved under Justin and his hand to the blond’s shoulder. He rocked their bodies together hard and fast. He loved to hear his boy moaning and panting close to his ear; it drove him crazy. It didn’t take long for Justin to be close to the edge.
“Don’t,” Brian told him.
Justin’s toes curled and he resisted the temptation of letting go. He bit Brian’s shoulder and scratched the man’s back.
Brian yelled and his hand reached for Justin’s cock. He felt how wet the boy was and it drove him wild. He hammered faster inside the tight hole. He felt Justin’s body stiffening up and then his hand was covered with the blond’s sperm.
“Oh god,” Justin hissed as he shot his cum.
Brian threw his head and with an animalistic growl he shot his load inside his lover. His body dropped exhausted on top of Justin’s. Their bodies were covered in sweat and cum. The chambers smelled of pure sex. Brian lifted his hands slowly and pushed the blond’s hair back.
Justin smiled from ear to ear. “That was great.”
Brian was about to move when Justin held him.
“Don’t go,” Justin said in a very low voice. “I love it when you stay inside of me.”
Brian nodded and stayed like that. When Justin fell asleep, Brian chuckled a bit and pulled out of his lover. He lay next to his baby and went to sleep as well with the man he loved secure in his arms.

“What are you guys doing?” Justin said coming out into the deck.
Brian, Ted, Michael, Henry and Ethan were sitting down looking at some papers and talking.
“Work,” Ted answered.
Justin sat in front of Brian and grabbed one of the beers they had in the cooler. He opened and drank a sip.
“How many days until we’re there?” Brian asked as he read the paper Ted gave him.
“About two days,” Michael answered. “Don’t you have things to do?” He asked looking at Franck.
Franck groaned as he got up. “I’m going.”
“Can I be in charge of a team?” Ethan asked.
“No,” Michael and Brian answered at the same time and then laughed.
Ethan glared at them; he got up and left the deck.
“How many bars off gold do you think...he got?” Henry asked as he looked at a picture of the island they were going to.
Justin frowned and looked at Brian that was sitting next to Ted. He suddenly realized that whenever they talked about the pirate that had found the treasure they never mentioned names. He didn’t say anything and stayed there trying to figure it out.
After a while everyone left and it was only him, Brian and Michael. He was itching to ask Brian about it but Michael wasn’t leaving.
“Brian,” Justin said.
“What?” Brian asked as he finished putting the papers in the folder.
“Who is this guy that found all the money?” Justin asked.
Michael and Brian looked at each other. The shorter of the two got up and pulled out a joint. “I’m going to see that everyone is doing...well, what they’re supposed to be doing.”
“Brian,” Justin said again as he put the empty can on the table. He got up and moved to sit against the brunet. “Talk to me.”
“Some pirate,” Brian said.
“But why won’t you mention his name?” Justin asked arching a brow. “Brian,” he sing sang. “Tell me.”
“Its no one you know,” Brian informed the younger man and then used his tongue in cheek expression.
“Then why not use a name?” Justin asked. “Unless...oh my god!”
Brian sighed. “Justin.”
“It’s Drew!” Justin yelled. “Oh my god! Brian!”
“What?” Brian asked.
“I do know him,” Justin shouted. “Jesus, Brian.”
“You don’t know him,” Brian pointed out. “You know of him.”
“You can’t do this,” Justin told him. “It’s not right. He helped me when I needed him to bring me back to you.”
“For a price,” Brian spat out.
Justin sighed. “Ah,” he groaned. “He’s with Emmett!”
“Your point being?” Brian asked arching a brow.
“I can’t believe you sometimes,” Justin answered. “I mean, you have no limits. This is wrong. What if something happens? What if you guys start fighting over this money or gold or whatever the fuck it is and one of you ends up hurt.”
“Better him than me, don’t you think?” Brian asked and looked up as if he was thinking about it.
“Brian!” Justin yelled. “You’re not listening to me.”
“He’s not going to be there, Justin,” Brian said. “They’re keeping tabs on him for me.”
“I can’t believe this,” Justin said to himself as he moved away from Brian. “This is not right.”
“Stop talking to yourself,” Brian instructed him. “I promise that I will let you punish the naughty captain later.”
“Don’t try that,” Justin said but it was too late. His cock was starting to awaken. “It won’t change things.”
“I’ll be okay,” Brian promised. “I swear.”
“He already has it in for you,” Justin pointed out.
“What else is new?” Brian asked knowing there were a lot of people out there to get him.
Justin pouted. “Please, I don’t want you to get hurt.”
“I won’t,” Brian assured him once again. He kissed Justin and pulled him close. “Relax, soon we’ll be in land and everything would be okay.”
Justin wanted to believe that, but he couldn’t shake the bad feeling inside of him.
***
“I can believe it,” Justin said and kneeled. “We’re on land.”
Dante laughed as he saw the blond almost kissing the sand.
“Dramatic much?” Luke asked.
Justin glared at him as he got up.
“Come on,” Brian said to the blond. “There are a few things you have to know.”
“Like what?” Justin asked as he followed Brian.
“You’re going to stay with Ted, Ryan, Andrew and Sam here,” Brian said as he pulled out his gun and inspected it.
Justin was already pouting. “But I want to go with you.”
“No,” Brian told him. “It’s not safe.”
“Oh, that makes me so happy right now,” Justin told him rolling his eyes. “You’re going.”
“But I know how to take care of myself,” Brian told him as he turned around. He pulled Justin close to him and kissed him. “It would only take a day,” Brian assured him.
Justin didn’t like it one bit.
“Settle up,” Michael shouted to everyone.
Justin wasn’t happy with it but he followed instructions. He knew it was for his own good. He helped the guys set up camp. Then he helped Sam scout the place. When they came back the guys were cooking something.
The blond was going crazy with boredom and desperation of not knowing how Brian was. Around sunset Ethan, Michael, Dante and Franck came back.
“What are you guys doing here?” Justin asked.
Ethan looked at Justin and didn’t say anything. “We were ambushed.”
“By the natives?” Ryan asked frowning.
“No,” Ethan answered. “By Zeke’s people.”
“Zeke?” Sam asked amazed. “What the fuck?”
“Who is that?” Justin asked not having any clue. His heart was beating so fast he thought he was having a heart attack.
“How the fuck did they know we were here?” Andrew asked. “Where is everyone else?”
That’s the question that Justin was dreading to ask with fear that they would tell him that they weren’t alive. He swallowed and waited patiently for the answer.
“It was Boris, Brendan, Luke, Kenneth, and I think even Henry were in on it,” Michael said as he squatted down in front of one of the black duffel bags. He pulled out two guns before he started searching for the ammo.
“What happened?” Sam asked.
“We saw them before they got close,” Michael explained. “They tried to hold us off but we managed to get away. We all ran in different directions including Brian. We found each other later on. We searched for Brian but didn’t found him. So we came here to get all this and you guys.”
“How do we know they are not in on it?” Ethan asked.
Everyone stayed quiet for a few seconds. Michael looked around and shook his head. He knew whom could he trust and he had never trusted any of the guys that had turned on them and now he knew he had been right all alone.
Justin wanted to die. Brian was in that freaking jungle with people who had betrayed him. “We have to go get Brian.”
“We’re going to,” Michael said. “You’re going back with Ethan.”
“I’m going too,” Ted told them getting ready to search for Brian.
“Hey,” Ethan protested. “I’m going to get my brother.”
“You’re going to follow orders!” Michael yelled.
Justin had never seen Michael pissed before. He stepped closer to Ethan and grabbed him by the arm. He didn’t say anything at all, just stood there possibly holding on before his legs failed him.
“Fine,” Ethan hissed.
The guys got everything they needed before they went in search of Brian. Justin and Ethan looked at each other.
“I’m going to get my brother,” Ethan said.
“And I’m going with you,” Justin announced.
***
Justin ran a hand over his face taking off the sweat. He kept on walking after the brunet hoping that they would find Brian soon. He stopped cold when he heard men shouting in agony.
“Don’t move from here,” Ethan whispered to the blond. “Get low in the ground now.”
Justin squatted down just like Ethan did. The young brunet moved slowly until he reached a tree that was at the edge of a ravine. He looked down and saw some of the natives attacking two guys from Zeke’s crew. He frowned and slowly moved back to where Justin was.
“What’s happening?” Justin asked.
“We have to stay here,” Ethan murmured. He pulled out his gun just in case they came their way. He looked at Justin and sighed. He should have never brought the blond with him.
“Why?” Justin asked. “We have to get Brian.”
“Justin,” Ethan said. “We’ll stay here until I say is safe to move again.”
Justin was angry with the man. The last thing he wanted to do was stop and waste any time. He knew that Brian needed him. If he knew where he was going he would have taken off. Ethan sat down and waited; he hated every minute of it. His older brother was in a bind and there he was in another. If the natives heard them they would be next and he wasn’t ready to die just yet.
“Are we going to sleep here?” Justin asked when nightfall came. He was ready to take the lead without caring where he ended; even if he had to yell Brian’s name along the way.
Ethan got up and went to see what was going on at the bottom of the narrow valley once again. He could see the shapes of the two dead men. He sighed and looked back at Justin. “I’m going down. You stay here.”
“No way,” Justin protested. “I’m going with you.”
Ethan stood there thinking of what to do. “Fine,” he finally said. “Come on.”
It took them a while to get to where the locals had left the bodies. As soon as Justin saw them his stomach betrayed him. He fell to his knees and puked his guts out.
Ethan bent down and took the black bandanas they were wearing. “We can use this,” he said. He could see the big gap on their chests and stomachs. The meat had been taken from them to store it and eat it. He was sure that their eyes, tongues and ears were missing as well among other things. He was disgusted by the native’s way of life.
“Won’t they know is not true?” Justin asked after he got up and cleaned the side of his mouth with the back of his hand.
“I don’t know,” Ethan said. “It’s worth a try.”
Justin grabbed the bandana and put it on. He reached for a bottle of water inside the bag he was carrying. Then they were back to walking. He wanted to shout at the brunet for making him walk so much but he didn’t want to stop Ethan. But it wasn’t Ethan’s fault, he was really angry because Brian was nowhere to be found.
“We stop here,” Ethan said. “You go to sleep and I’ll stay awake.”
“What?” Justin asked perplexed. “What do you mean stop here?”
“We have to rest,” Ethan informed him. “It’s going to get pretty dark and we can’t go wondering. There are natives here as well, Justin. You saw what they did to those two guys.”
Justin nodded.
“So, go to sleep and I’ll take watch,” Ethan told him. “I’ll wake you up in a few hours and I’ll sleep then.”
“Okay, okay,” Justin relented. At first he felt confident that he wasn’t going to fall asleep but before he realized it he was sleeping.
Ethan let the man sleep for about four hours before he woke him up. Then it was Justin watching out that no one got to close to them. He was freaking out with every sound and the shadows around him. He was happy when daylight seemed to be reaching the day.
The brunet turned around and opened his eyes. He yawned and sat up. He walked over to his duffel bag and pulled out a bottle of water. He drank half before he threw it in Justin’s direction. “We’ll eat something and be on our way. I want to start early to get ahead,” Ethan said. Any other time he wouldn’t be up so early in the wee hours of the morning.
“Where are we going exactly?” Justin asked.
“High ground,” Ethan told him. “Whenever one of us gets lost we do that.”
Justin frowned. “Won’t Boris and Brendan and the others know that?”
“That’s why we have to get there first,” Ethan told him pulling out some of the provisions he had gotten for him and Justin.
After they ate they were on their way. Justin didn’t think he had seen so many trees together in his life. He almost bumped into Ethan when the other man stopped.
“Shit,” Ethan whispered.
“What?” Justin asked.
“We’re being watched,” Ethan told him.
Justin looked around but didn’t see anyone. “What are you talking about?”
“We have to get out of here,” Ethan told him. “Come on,” he said and started running.
Justin was going to protest but decided against it. He started running after Ethan and almost fell down when he heard a guttural scream. Then he could hear them behind him and Ethan. When he thought they were almost going to get caught he and Ethan fell down. He was hit with branches, rocks and hard against the ground. When they reached the bottom Ethan was bleeding through his forehead. Justin had a few scratches but nothing serious.
“Are you okay?” Justin asked.
There was a river right in front of them. Ethan moved to it and used the water to clean his face; he hoped it wouldn’t make him sick. He groaned, since it stung like crazy. He looked up hearing the natives shouting, probably wondering where they had disappeared to. “We have to keep on going.”
“Yeah,” Justin said.
Ethan groaned a bit when he extended his arms. He was certain that he didn’t have anything broken.
“Ethan,” Justin said and licked his lips. “Do they really eat people?”
“Yeah,” Ethan answered and frowned when he saw something moving across the river through the trees. He kept on looking and then the gray shapes were as clear as day. “We have more important things to think about now,” the brunet said.
“Like what?” Justin asked.
“Them,” Ethan said pointing across the river at Zeke’s men.
Justin looked to where Ethan had pointed. He could see about ten to fifteen men wearing black bandanas walking straight ahead. His head turned to see where they were walking to and that’s when he saw Michael and the guys sitting about a hundred feet away.
“Ready to run?” Ethan asked.
“Why?” Justin asked frowning. They had left the natives somewhere behind them.
Ethan pointed and started shooting. He wasn’t shooting to anyone in particular it had been warning shots for Michael and the others. Before Justin had time to start running Ethan grabbed his wrist and started running with him in tow. In one side they still had natives behind them and now they had pirates aware of them. It was all so fucked up; Justin was in such a mess and not anywhere near finding Brian.
