Chapter Six

"Yes, I will marry you." Justin said , as soon as he said it Brian got up off his knee, slipped the ring he had been offering Justin on to his finger. When it was safely on Justin's finger, he picked him up and spun him around. Suddenly Justin felt very ill, he hit Brian's shoulder to drop him. As soon as his feet hit the floor, he ran out of the library, running towards the bathroom to throw up.

"Baby boy!" Scott shouted after him as he followed his son. When Justin had stopped throwing up and had come back to the library, Brian apologised and suggested that they go to bed soon. They found themselves in Justin's old room in his old double bed talking about the future until they fell asleep.

The next day Brian and Justin came down stairs and went in to the kitchen. After waking up, they saw Justin's daddy on the phone talking to his brothers and their partners.

"Morning daddy." Justin said as kissed his daddy's cheek.

"Morning, baby boy… Right, we have an hour before people start to arrive." Scott said as he gave Justin a glass of juice and Brian a cup of coffee.

"People…?" Brian asked as soon as the coffee had kicked his brain in to gear.

"JJ. Chris . James, Mark. Charlie, George, Adam, Harry, Elliot, Tom, Peter, Toby, Matt, Max, Danny, Jack and Josh… Blake, Ethan and then they're bringing their partners and then they're bringing all your friends, Brian. Now who else was there… oh yes, all of your dad's associates and all my work mates… and Ted said he would ring all your office staff to tell them." Scott said as Justin and Brian stood there with their mouths open in shock at how many people were coming to breakfast.

"But why all those people, daddy? Brian hasn't met any of the family yet." Justin said as he took hold of Brian's hand in reassurance.

"That's the reason for it…now you have 2 hours to let Brian in on the family history." Scott laughed as he left the kitchen to help his husband decorate the backyard, seeing as it was a nice day.

"Who are all those people?" Brian asked, shocked that there were going to be so many people at 

breakfast.

"Well, how do I explain everyone I know?" Justin asked himself as he pulled Brian towards the library where the photo albums were.

When they reached the library, Justin found the family album with all the baby and growing up pictures within it. They sat down on the window seat and looked through the album. It had all the pictures of the Taylor family from John and Scott's wedding all the way through to Danny's wedding just last year.

"Right," Justin Began. "That's John Junior, otherwise known as JJ. Next to him is his husband of 25 years, Chris, and their two sons James and Mark. Next are Charlie and his husband of 15 years and their son, Adam. Next are Harry and his husband, Elliott, of 10 years and their sons, Tom and Peter. Next are Toby and his husband, Matt, of 4 years and their son, Max. Next are Danny and his husband, Jack, of two years now Jack is 7 months pregnant with their first child. Finally, there is my twin brother, Josh. He is happy and single at the moment." Justin said as he pointed each man and child out in the pictures.

Brian sat next to his partner and got jealous he was an only child and had never known the joys of coming from a big family. But, if Justin agreed to it, they would be having a large family with lots of happy little boys running round a house in the countryside.

Brian was brought out of his quiet musings by Justin taking his hand and kissing the back of it.
