Lean On Me

Chapter Eleven

Justin was getting extremely nervous about Brian’s silence. Justin just knew that he had ruined any chances that he and Brian had and felt tears start to run down his face. Brian’s fingertips brushed the tears away and he said, “Don’t cry, baby.”

“It’s over, isn’t it? I’ve ruined everything.”

Brian hesitated for just a moment. Could he be with a prostitute? Did he want to be with a prostitute? The answer was no, he wanted Justin out of that profession. But he loved Justin. “No, baby, everything’s not ruined. Am I happy about your job? No, but I do love you and I’m not going to just leave you because of it. To be honest I had a suspicion about what you do when I met you at the Big Q. But, I don’t want you doing it anymore.”

Justin rubbed his eyes and looked at Brian. “I don’t want to do it, either. I hate it and I feel so disgusting afterwards, but I need the money. I wouldn’t make enough at a minimum wage job to support myself and my siblings.”

Brian nodded, knowing Justin was right. “I know. That’s why all of you are going to move in with me.”

“We can’t Brian. You’d hate living with all of us. Besides, the loft is nowhere big enough to cram in everyone without everyone always being underfoot.”

“Then, we’ll start looking for a house. Look, Justin, I have been with a lot of men and I would never dream of doing this with them. The difference with you is that I love you and only you. I can already tell that you are it for me. You’re the only one that I plan on ever being with and I want you to quit prostituting and to concentrate on your studies. I make more than enough to support all of us and what are partners for?”

Justin smiled his Sunshine smile. “Partners?”

Brian smirked. “Did you miss the I love you part?”

Justin shook his head, “No, and I love you. You don’t think we’re moving too fast, do you?”

“No. Besides, if we don’t do this now I am liable to start over-thinking things and have a major queen-out.”

Justin laughed, “Well, we wouldn’t want that, now would we?”

“So, is it okay to start looking for places tomorrow?”

“It sure is. Can I just ask you one favor, Bri?” Brian nodded and waited. “Will you not bring any tricks back to the new place? I couldn’t handle that.”

“What are you talking about, baby?”

Justin looked down for a moment, then looked back at Brian. “Well, I know you like your tricks, but I would just really appreciate it if they weren’t brought to the new place. I wouldn’t want them around my siblings, plus I just wouldn’t be able to handle it. I hate just thinking of you with other men.”

Brian nodded and said something that he and nobody else ever thought would leave his lips. “You don’t have to worry about that. I want to be monogamous. You’ve ruined me for other men and, besides, I hate thinking of another man with you.”

“Monogamous? Really?” Justin felt like it was Christmas morning and his Birthday rolled into one. He had wished for it to be just them, but he wasn’t going to push Brian.

“Yes, monogamous. But we have to be completely honest with each other and if either one of us messes up and sucks or fucks someone else, we have to talk about it. No secrets.”

Justin nodded in agreement and hugged Brian. “I love you,” he whispered.

Brian started kissing up Justin’s neck, making Justin moan.  Brian smiled. He loved the sounds that Justin made. Thoughts started running through his head. Could he do it? Could he be monogamous and help Justin take care of his siblings? Resolutely, he internally nodded.

He could do it. If one of them messed up, they would make it through it. Even though he and Justin hadn’t known each other very long,

Brian knew they were it for each other and he would do anything for his man. His hands were running up Justin’s back as their mouths kissed. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

“Great fucking timing,” Brian mumbled.

Justin gave a soft laugh and said, “You can get the door. I’ll still be here.”

Brian sighed and got up to answer the loft’s door. He came face to face with a man who was wearing a leather outfit. The man grabbed Brian and kissed him on the lips.
