Brian's chat with Gibbs

Brian slowly walked down the stairs to the basement. He knew Gibbs was working on a closet for Justin's apartment. He smirked, knowing that Justin always preferred his dad's hand made furniture over "the shit from the stores", as Justin described it all the time. When he reached the last step his thoughts were interrupted by Gibbs.

"Good memories?" Gibbs asked amused.

"Huh?" Brian wondered out loud.

"That smirk. You're remembering something good?" Gibbs asked again with a teasing tone.

"Something like that, yeah. Justin's sleeping." The brunette said.

"Good, he needs a good night's rest. Got something on your mind?" Gibbs mused.

"He loves me, Jethro. He told me this morning that he still loves me." Brian said.

"I know. Everyone knows. Although it does seem to surprise you?" Gibbs wondered.

"Yeah. Why does he love me? Why?" Brian just couldn't understand it.

Gibbs snorted and shook his head. "Brian Kinney, you're a smart man but sometimes act like a fool. What's not to love? You might hide behind the many masks you created to protect yourself but Justin could always see beyond that. He was the first to know how much you loved your son. He always knew you care about people even though you pretend not to. You're not the asshole your so called friends and surrogate mother say you are." He told the confused looking man.

"Does that have anything to do with the shit Linds and Mikey spouted earlier today?" Brian wondered.

"Yup, that and much more." Gibbs said and sighed. "Brian, you are the first to help out your friends and family if needed. Not just financially, but emotionally. You just don't pack the truths into nice packages. You're honest most of the time. You started lying to yourself and when you finally believed the shit yourself, you said it out loud for them to hear. You're one of the least selfish people I know. You don't love and trust easily but when you do, you do it with all your heart and soul. You guard yourself from strangers but forgot that sometimes the people closest to you can hurt you worse." The silver haired man explained gently. "You deserve better friends, Brian. Lindsay, Michael and Debbie can't see you for who you are. They just see what you want them to see. It should tell you something that Justin, who doesn't know you as long as they do, could see right through those masks of yours and they still can't." Gibbs said and turned off the light. "Think about it. Go to bed, I'm sure Justin would sleep even better if you're there. Don't let the reputation you build for yourself destroy what you could have with someone who loves you for real." With that, Gibbs walked up the stairs to go to bed. Brian still stood there, like frozen.

'Fuck! The bastard knows me way too good. But shouldn't he know? He acts like a bastard to guard himself, too but since he got together with Tony he's using this pretense a lot less. Oh for fuck's sake... I love Justin and I'm going to be with him.'

2 Weeks Later

Debbie invited the gang and Gibbs' team to one of her famous Sunday dinners. Tony and Gibbs arrived with Brian and Justin later than the rest and Michael and Lindsay both attacked the blonde man verbally right after he stepped into Debbie's living room.

"What the fuck is going on here, Brian? Why are you holding the little shit's hand?" Michael yelled.

"Shut up, Michael! That's none of your business." Brian replied angrily.

"Brian, of course this is our business. Michael and I are your closest friends. We don't want Justin to use you. Don't you think it's very telling that he just buried his husband and is already holding your hand?" Lindsay tried to reason.

"Pah, I bet they're already fucking, too. That little whore. Why did you have to save him, Brian? You should have left him laying on the floor to bleed out and fucking die." Michael shouted but before anyone could have said anything, he almost flew across the room right into the wall with a bleeding nose. Gibbs was just about to go at him again, when Brian caught his arm and stopped him.

"No, Jethro. STOP! He's not worth it." Brian said, trying to calm Gibbs down.

"I don't give a fuck. He can't sprout that kind of shit about my son and get away with it." Gibbs yelled.

"What's with all the noise?" Asked Debbie, who was still in the kitchen but ran into the living room because of all the noise. After she took in the sight of her bleeding son, she asked shocked, "What the fuck is going on? Michael, what happened?" Debbie was a true motherhen and couldn't stop fawning over her injured son.

"Gibbs happened! The fucker hit me, Ma!" Michael cried, holding his nose.

"I think you should kick the bastard out, Debs. He's an animal." Lindsay told her, looking rather smug.

"Shut up, Lindsay. Debbie, my dad didn't mean to lose control so badly. We walked in and Lindsay and Michael started going at me and Brian. Michael shouted that Brian should have left me to die at the prom and Dad, he just lost control. It wasn't planned, Debbie. You know my Dad." Justin sobbed. Michael's animosity and hatred deeply shocked him.

"WHAT?" Debbie yelled. "Michael, what the fuck is wrong with you? You know how hard Sunshine had to fight to survive and you also know how hard all that shit was for Brian. Hell, you were right next to him at the hospital. You saw how much it affected him. How could you say such a thing? I'm so disappointed. You're my son and I love you but right now I'm so ashamed of you. Please, you and Lindsay should go home." Debbie said sadly.

"Uhm, no. Actually Michael, you should get a room in some hotel. I can't stand to see the sight of you. This is all because you can't let go of your childish fantasies about Brian. I'm done playing second fiddle. We're over, Michael." Ben told Michael in front of everyone.

"Same for you, Lindsay." Melanie added sadly. "It's obvious that I am not enough for you. I'll take Gus and Jenny home. Please just go and pack your bags. I'm sick and tired of the shit you constantly pull. I guess it doesn't matter at this point but I'm aware that you're still seeing Sam. Maybe he wants you for real."

"Oh no, Mel. I'm not leaving without Gus. He is MY son, not yours." Lindsay snapped.

"Forget that, Lindsay. I won't have this asshole Sam around Gus." Brian said angrily. "And Mel is as much of a mother to him as you are."

Lindsay just glared at Mel and Brian, then at Justin before she walked out of Deb's house, slamming the door. Michael followed her just as angry.

Tony's thoughts through the Dinner

'Holy shit! What the heck just happened? How can Michael and Lindsay claim to be Brian's friends? Hell, how can they claim to love him? They act like they own him. God, Mel and Ben look so lost. What's wrong with Michael and Lindsay? How can they not see just how great their partners are? And WOW! Gibbs totally freaked out. Not that I don't understand him punching Michael. I would have done the same if I hadn't been so shocked. But damn, he looked so hot. All manly. Okay, Gibbs always looks manly but ugh, I should stop thinking about that. A boner at the dinner table while children are here is not good.'

Ellie's thoughts through the Dinner

'WOW! WOW! WOW! That was heavy. I want to shoot both Michael and Lindsay. Gibbs looks like he wants to go after Michael and kill him with his bare hands.'

"I'm sorry. I don't know what is wrong with my son." Debbie cried. Vic hugged his sister.

"You don't have to apologize for his behavior, Debs. Michael needs to apologize. And Lindsay, too." Vic said gently.

"Are you really that surprised about their behavior?" Emmett asked. "I mean, let's be honest. Lindsay always acts like Brian's her husband and Michael acts like he owns Brian."

'Interesting. I really should think about something for Michael and Lindsay. They shouldn't get away with that behavior.' Ellie smiled sweetly. She shared a look with Abby and McGee. They would come up with something as payback for the two idiots.

Next chapter will be about our two couples Tibbs and Britin at home after the dinner. Gibbs and Justin both needs lots of TLC. ;)
