OMG you made me cry! In a good way, but still. I loved the fic from word one and was reading along trying to figure out how to pick my favorite parts when every second of it was perfect and then we get here: Brian sat down at the computer just as Justin hung up. "Want me to print out your boarding pass?"
"Thanks."
Brian paused. "Want me to print out one for me, too?"
Justin didn't say anything, and Brian looked up. "What, did you promise to spend the week with your secret wife and children?"
"No," he said, laughing as he walked over to the computer. "It's…"
Brian raised an eyebrow. "What?"
Justin leaned against the desk, looking down at Brian. "Do you know what I liked about this visit?"
"It couldn't be the coldness, darkness and, near-starvation, so I'm guessing it was the almost impossibly good sex?"
Justin knelt down and put his hands on Brian's thighs. "That it didn't feel like a visit."
Brian just looked at him, his lips folding in.
"Brian…" Justin sat back on his heels. "It's been four years."
"I can count."
"What are we waiting for?"
Brian was still looking at him, then quirked a smile. "You're down on your knees. Are you proposing?"
Justin smiled. "Yes."
"I asked you – twice, in fact – already, so obviously my answer is yes." He brushed Justin's hair back with his hand. "But that’s not really the question, is it?
And I'm melting into a puddle of goo with tears in my eyes. (I know it's a ridiculously long quote but I trimmed as much as I could)
You are brilliant, a genius and if I didn't already love you, I would after reading this. I want to cuddle up with this fic every night.
PS: My only question is what was Michael going to say before the power came back on?
