Title: Good-bye to Babylon
Series: New York Stories Drabble Series
Author: frantic_quest
Prompts: Dec.10: Lost in the City Dec 11.: Out from Under
Notes: Two Drabylon Dollars. This is a drabble series set several years post-513 looking at Brian & Justin's life together in NYC. Not necessarily linear.
17.
Justin wandered the city streets for hours, lost in the memories that surrounded him; in sights and sounds comfortably familiar, yet somehow disturbingly foreign.
It was Liberty Avenue, the place he had instinctively come to so many years ago, a frightened but determined boy, searching for a lifestyle he craved, but hadn’t quite understood.
Not until he met Brian; discovering in just one night, exactly what he wanted from life.
Sometimes it was hard to believe the twisted road he’d travelled to get to this point. But he finally agreed with Brian; it was time to say good-bye to Babylon.
18.
The next morning Brian poked at the Justin-shaped lump hidden under the duvet, persevering until a blond head finally popped out from undercover staring at him in bleary-eyed annoyance.
“Get your ass out of bed, Sunshine.” Brian whispered with sarcastic sweetness. “Our flight back home leaves in two hours, and the weather is supposed to turn to shit later. If I get stuck here in the armpit of the East Coast, I will tie your balls in a knot.”
Justin grumbled, but was ready in record time. Anyplace that Brian called their home was where he wanted to be.
