This was not going like he had planned Justin left Brian’s office defeated. A boy from the art department was waiting for him. He was the same height as Justin, blond, green eyed, but slim. “Allan? This is Justin Taylor, he will be working here from today. Could you please show him the art department? He will work with you on the Brown Athletic account.” Brian shut the office door and Allan eyed Justin, then a smile spread over his face. “Hi!” The boys shook hands and Allan pulled Justin towards the art department. Justin tried to look bored, but on the inside he was totally excited when they entered the art department. Justin couldn’t believe his luck when he saw that everything was up-to-date. “Don’t you think that the boss is fucking hawt? God, I would do everything to have one night with him.” Allan sighted dramatically. “Yeah, well, he is alright.” Justin said with a bored tone. He already liked Allan. “ALRIGHT??? He is definitely more than alright!” Allan exclaimed. “Who is this?” A tall man stepped in front of them. His eyes wandered over Justin’s body. “Hi Rick, this is Justin Taylor, he’s going to work here from now on.” Rick nodded and then continued with his work. The blondes sat down in front of a computer, where they started to work on the campaign. Justin couldn’t help a smile creeping slowly over his face. Maybe this wouldn’t be so bad after all. ******************* A few hours later Brian shut down his computer for the day and put on his coat. He then left his office and made his way towards the art department, to check on Craig’s son. He opened the door and saw to giggling blondes, sitting in front of a computer. Brian stepped behind them and looked over their shoulder. What he saw amazed him. “Good work boys. You can finish for today” Justin and Allan shrieked and jumped up. They hadn’t heard Brian. “Uhm… I… We…” Justin stammered. “Thank you Mr. Kinney!” Allan said and then turned to Justin. “Come on blondie, let’s get out of here. Wanna come with me to Woody’s?” Justin nodded, not trusting his voice. Why was it that, whenever he saw Mr Kinney, he never knew what to say? He stood up and followed Allan and Brian. The three left Kinnetik, Brian heading for the parking garage and the boys heading towards Woody's. ********************* At Woody's Justin and Allan were checking out the guys. “He’s hot over there.” Allan pointed to a tall red-haired. “Not bad… but I like…” Justin looked around “…him! He’s apparently a real queen but not bad.” Both blondes giggled. “Do you know who that is?” Justin shook his head. “That’s Emmett Honeycut, one of our boss’s friends.” “Really? I can’t imagine these two to be friends…” The boys watched the gang for a few more minutes but then left Woody’s. Even if it was still early, it had been a long day and they had to work tomorrow. Shortly after they had left Woody’s, Brian entered the bar and spotted his friends immediately. “Brian! You should have been here half an hour ago!” Mickey whined the moment he spotted his long time friend. Brian smirked and shrugged and after ordering himself a beer, started a game of pool with the gang. While playing pool billiard Brian listened to the gossip. “Did you see that blonde kid? Poor boy! He was actually quite cute but it would help if he would lose some weight!” A nasty queen said, with her back turned to Brian. Brian felt his anger rise but didn’t know exactly why. They were probably talking about Justin, he had seen Justin leave when he had entered the bar and they were right. He was fat, so why was HE getting upset about them only saying what he thought? Brian gave Ted the billiard cue and downed his drink. He then walked away from them and left Woody’s. Emmett, Michael and Ted stared after him. What the hell had just happened was up with him? Michael shrugged and they continued with their match. ***************** Brian walked through the empty streets. It was still kind of early and the clubs weren’t even open yet. He found himself in the diner several minutes later. “Hey kiddo, what ya doing here?” Debbie gave Brian a bone-crushing hug, as if she hadn’t seen him in ages. Brian shrugged and focused on Deb. “I just came by to grab a lemon bar. I have an early meeting tomorrow.” Deb hurried behind the counter and packed Brian a lemon bar. Meanwhile Brian spotted two familiar blonde heads. He walked over to the occupied booth. “Well, shouldn’t the two of you be in bed? You have to be at work tomorrow, if I remember correctly or doesn’t your boss mind?” Brian smirked when he saw the boys’ faces. “Hi again, Mr. Kinney. It’s not that late really.” Allan said, trying to hide a laugh. He often met Brian at the Diner or at Babylon. Justin was blushing, redness creeping up from his neck. “Br- Mr. Kinney…” “Hi Justin. Have you found an apartment yet?” Justin shook his head. God, that voice and that smirk… why did his boss had to be so hot and be such an asshole at the same time? Brian sat down next to Justin and waited for his order. He accidentally brushed Justin’s arm when he sat down and the blonde blushed even more, if it was possible. Allan noticed his new friend’s behaviour and suppressed a giggle. Justin could smell Brian’s aftershave and felt himself hardening and shifted in his seat. Why was he so shy every time Brian Kinney was around? And why the fuck was he always hard when he saw him? Yes, Brian looked god but not that good. “Uhm… Allan? I better go now. I need to catch the bus.” Justin said as an excuse. Brian grinned. “I'll give you a lift, in a minute.” Brian smiled. Allan’s eyes widened. What was going on here? Alright, Brian Kinney liked to flirt with everyone, but he would never take anyone home, at least not anybody who worked for him. And hello? He really liked Justin, but Justin was definately not Brian’s type. “No, you don’t have to. I’m staying at a friend’s tonight and it’s really not far from here but thanks anyway!” Brian sulked inwardly. He shook his head. No, Brian Kinney didn’t sulk. That’s when Deb walked over to the little group and placed a bag in front of Brian. “Here asshole. And don’t forget, Sunday, my place, 6 o’clock!” She grinned and Brian stood up to kiss her on the cheek. “I’ll be there, Mom.” He then winked at Allan and Justin and left the diner. Justin also got up and said goodbye. Brian opened the door of his jeep, when he saw Justin walking out of the diner. “Hey blondie! Get in!” Justin looked at him and blushed again but made his way towards Brian. “I told you I can take the b-“ “And I told you I’d take you, so get in the damn car” Justin stared for a moment, then opened the passenger door and got in the car. He told Brian the address and soon the jeep parked in front of an apartment complex. “So, I’ll see you tomorrow.” Brian said, tongue in cheek. Justin hadn’t said anything since they sped away from the diner, but had been shifting in his seat all the way there. Brian was well aware of his condition. Justin nodded and while he undid the seat belt, Brian leaned over and planted a kiss on Justin’s mouth. Justin leaned in the kiss and Brian pulled him closer. They broke the kiss, panting heavily, gasping for air. “Wanna come up?” Justin asked, breathless and without anymore thinking without another word being uttered, the two men rushed upstairs. TBC
