Love Lies: Chapter 2

I don't own anything related to Queer as Folk, as much as it saddens me to say it.

The rest of the guys watched Brian and Justin's quarrel. "God, he is one mean queen," Emmett slurred.

"Which one?" Ted asked.

"I'm thinking Brian," Ben started, "but Justin's got a bitchy side."

"Look, would you guys just shut the fuck up?!" Their heads quickly turned to Michael. Emmett took another sip of his drink.

"Someone's PMSing."

"You're jealous, aren't you?"

"Of what?" Brian asked coldly.

"That I had someone else love me. You want that feeling, too."

"Unlike you, sweetheart, I don't need anyone to give a fuck about me."

"Yes, you do. You know you do! You're just too much of pussy to admit it!"

"Stop acting like you fuckin' know me!"

"I do know you, Brian! You're a scared guy who doesn't know what he wants!"

"I know what I want and I can't fuckin' have it!"

"You can have me, Brian," he said, putting his hands on his arms.

"I don't want you!"

"Yes, you do! I want you, too! I love you, Brian."

"Shut up!" he yelled, pushing him off.

"I know you love me."

"No I don't!"

"Kiss me."

"Fuck you!"

"C'mon, kiss me! Show me that you don't love me!" All of Brian's feelings for Justin burst out of him as he kissed him for the first time in months.

The same reaction came out of the guys. "Holy shit!!!"

The kissed seemed to last forever. The sensations running through their bodies were overwhelming to them. Memories of their nights together came flooding back as if they were reliving it all over again. The feel of Justin's lips on Brian's made his knees weak.

"What in the name of all gay things just happened?!" Ted asked, shocked.

"Did Brian just make the first move?" Michael asked, in disbelief. Emmett looked astounded.

"Brian Kinney? Brian mother fuckin' Kinney?"

Justin ended the kiss smiling. "See, I told you that you loved me."

"I never said that," Brian said, wrapping his arms around him.

"But I could tell. That kiss wasn't bullshit."

"Fine."

"You missed me."

"Maybe." Justin kissed him again. "Okay, I did."

"And you love me."

"You can't make me say it." Once again they kiss. "Maybe I do."

"You do what?"

"Fuck, Justin, c'mon."

"Okay," he said, pulling away. Brian grabbed his arm.

"Alright, alright. I love you."

"I can't hear you."

"I love you, God damnit!"

"Good answer."

"What the hell?!"

"Michael, calm down," Ben said.

"No, I'm not gonna calm down! He's seducing Brian and all he's gonna do is hurt him again!"

"But, didn't you want Justin to come here so he could get Brian back?" Emmett asked.

"Yeah, but I didn't think they would. I mean, it's Brian!"

"He's happy with Justin," Ted declared. "When they were together he was half way decent."

"I don't care. He's gonna get hurt. Justin's not right for him."

"Then who is?" Ben whispered.

"I dunno. Someone funny, cute, sweet, caring…"

"Like you?"

"Oh God, Ben, no. I just meant…"

"I know what you meant, Michael. I'll see you at home," he said, storming out. Michael chased after him.

"Ben, wait!" he yelled in the ally way.

"What do you want me to say? You obviously still love him."

"I was never with him! How could I love him?"

"You don't need to be with someone to love them. If you don't love me, it's fine, but don't lie to me."

"I'm not. Ben, I love you."

"I somehow doubt that," he said, walking away.

"Shit."
