I'm sitting at the bar, just enjoying a drink and the sights, when I notice Brian Kinney and his young blonde lover approach the bar. I'd heard of their breakup through the Babylon grapevine, and it made me sad. After seeing them that one night a while ago, I was pretty sure Brian was head over heels in love with the young man. But they seem to be back together again, and that makes me smile.
Brian notices me as he reaches for the drinks. I raise my beer in a toast and smile. Brian nods to me, but I can tell he's suppressing the urge to grin madly and jump up and down. I'm glad they're back together. They down their drinks and kiss intensely before heading to the dance floor. I watch them, curious to see what will happen.
The young blonde man—Justin, I believe—begins to move and sway, his hips grinding to the music. Brian puts his arms around Justin's shoulders and kisses him, beginning to dance as well. They kiss for a long while. Brian's hands move to Justin's hips, his grip gentle and protective. Brian looks so happy, and when Justin smiles at him, Brian's eyes light up brighter than before.
Brian's hands caress Justin's body, worshiping him. I wonder if this kid is Brian's deity, the one he claims not to believe in. They kiss and then lean their foreheads together. The two of them look so happy, and I wonder why they ever split. It seems silly, because they seem like they were absolutely meant for each other.
When Justin kisses Brian's neck, Brian leans his head back and closes his eyes, utter adoration and pleasure on his face. He must be ecstatic to have this young blonde back in his life.
They kiss, arms around each other, and they look so in love. They're smiling. I don't think I've ever seen Brian smile. Sure, I've seen his smirk and the self-deprecating little sneer, but I've never seen him smile so openly. I'm sure the others here haven't, either. Brian is a very closed-off person. But Justin managed to open him up. And this smile is beautiful.
They press their foreheads together, and I think I can see Brian's blood pulsing in his veins. He looks like he's going to explode, or fly, or something. He seems rejuvenated and alive, and his eyes are alight with devotion.
I knew Brian was kind, sensitive, even loving on the inside. I knew this when he didn't out me to his mother, when he didn't do it for me. But seeing this tenderness in Brian's touch makes me ache. And then he kisses Justin's forehead, gently, lovingly. That's when I know that this isn't something normal. This isn't just another love or just another relationship. These two are destined to be together. This two have their relationship God-given.
And it's reinforced as Justin kisses Brian's jaw softly, smiling. Brian says something in Justin's ear and Justin smiles. Their hands entwine and Brian leads Justin to the back room, both of them grinning, love and adoration clear in the glances thrown at each other.
