The 37 Days of Gusmas 2011
A Queer as Folk Fundraising Drabble-athon to Benefit The Ali Forney Center,
The Nation's Largest Organization Dedicated to Homeless LGBT Youth.
Nearly 4,000 kids who identify as LGBT sleep on the streets of New York City every night. The Ali Forney Center was founded to try to help those kids stay safe and alive, but in the face of massive budget cuts, the battle's getting harder, not easier. (Please read this story for more information -- bring kleenex.)
With thousands of children all over the country still being kicked out of the parents' home for being queer -- just like Justin -- and living by prostitution and drug addiction while on the streets -- just like Hunter -- the InsaneJournal ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) qaf_drabbles community and LJ's drabylon have joined together to support this great cause -- which is also the cause we raised money for in the first Gusmas challenge.
In the spirit of the Gusmas Season, let's try to exceed last year's donation of just under $1,300 and help the Ali Forney Center continue its work of keeping our kids alive long enough to grow up.
( Here's how it works... ) |

Title: The Weight of Gratitude
Author: ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) jule1122
Prompt: Thankful
Notes: I guess I am kicking things off this year. Happy Gusmas everyone! This is one of those rare drabbles that came to exactly 100 words on the first try so hopefully I didn't miss any mistakes:)
Brian stroked Justin’s hair, a quiet “thank you” falling from his lips.
“Did you just thank me for blowing you?” Justin asked, barely lifting his head from where it rested on Brian’s thigh.
Brian froze, the floor suddenly cold and hard beneath his back. He wanted to make a joke, but he couldn’t. Not after Justin said yes, and he realized, finally, how much he wanted this, how much it meant to him. But he’d already laid himself as bare as he could.
Then Justin smiled, his eyes filled with warmth and understanding. “You can thank me by fucking me.” |
