This makes me think of a fic I read, and then stopped reading because it just got too painful to finish.
Brian and Justin were broken up and Justin was with Ethan and oh so happy together. BLEH. And Brian met someone who he fell in love with. And then the only reason that Justin and Brian got back together in thte end was because their 'real true loves' or whatever died and I guess they comforted each other. I don't know. I stopped reading at one point and just skimmed the rest.
