Prompt(s): Dec 4th—I dare you
Notes: This was a particularly difficult drab with the prompt, but I hope that Brian's unspoken dare/challenge to Justin to get better so they can be together again comes across well enough. And the additional challenge to himself to stay away from Justin until he gets better.


It's strange seeing him awake when yesterday he was lying there motionless. Until tonight, Brian never understood just how badly he wanted to talk with him again. Because before, he didn't know if it would ever be an option.

Miguel told him that Justin is frustrated, refuses to talk to the occupational therapist. Sunshine's also asked to see him.

It would be easy to give Sunshine what he wants, but Brian won't make it easy for him.

If Justin wants him, he's going to have to work for it.

No matter how much that challenge is going to kill Brian.
