Author's Notes: Well nothing really happens this chapter not much. Well you do get see that Patrick is crazy and Patrick sees Justin for the first time. I promise the next chapter will be super long and full of lots of story.
( Harder Than I Thought )

Patrick decided that sitting at this stupid desk was getting old and he had things he had to do.
Like getting to know his prey and finding out about Justin Taylor.
He googled him and the kid had brain damage. He was well known, but he was a kid That was what he was sure Brian found appealing. He wanted a "Pretty Young Thing". Patrick needed to show Brian that things get better with age, -or at least close to your own age.
The sound of the phone tore him from the computer screen Thank you for Calling Kinnetic, Brian Kinney’s office,” Patrick said,trying very hard to sound professional.
“Yeah, put me through to Brian please.”
“I’m sorry Mr. Kinney is gone for the day. May I take a message?”
“Where is he? I called on his cell and he probably forgot to charge it. I’m Justin. I really need to speak to him
“Justin? Is this name supposed to be important? Am I supposed to know who Justin is? Are you from The Porkstation ? Mr. Kinney wanted to reschedule that until next week.”
“No I’m Justin Taylor. I’m Brian’s partner.”
“Oh.”
“Oh, what do you mean Oh?” Justin practically shouted
“Nothing. I mean, I just thought that guy, well no matter - Listen, Joshua is it? Brian left earlier. I heard him on the phone making arrangements. I thought that…well never mind what I thought, I’m just the secretary. So yea(I'd leave the So yea part out) I’ll tell him you called.”
“Tell him that I’m going to be late! I had to get a different flight,” Justin shouted before he heard the click of the line going dead.

“You did what?” questioned Brian.
“I think I sort of outed Ben to his father. I mean, he invited me there and I told him that I was a friend of Ben’s but I just don’t think he was getting it.”
“Are you serious Mikey? The guy wrote a book called “Are You One Too?” I don’t think it was about carpentry. The guy is nearly forty.I’m sure that his father knows. He’s not one to keep in the closet,” replied Brian.
“Something’s up though; he invited us over to dinner next week. I don’t know what to expect when we get there. I know he remarried,and maybe she and Ben don’t get along. Maybe I should’ve thought this through before I went sticking my nose in other people’s business .It’s the Deb in me. When it all comes down I’ll blame my mother.”
“Yeah, right. Listen I need to make a call, find us a table where we can shoot some pool and then I have to go and meet Justin.”
*****
Patrick was tired of sitting behind this stupid desk and five o’clock wasn’t coming fast enough.
He had things to do, and lists to be made.
Just thinking about Brian made a smile come to his face, It also saddened him when he thought of how he was feeling for Brian now,because it was how he had felt for George.
What good did loving George do, though? No good at all. It just got him a free ticket to crazy town. No, things would be different this time.

The phone rang.“Brian Kinney’s Office,” Patrick answered.
“Yeah, any messages?” shouted Brian.
“Yeah that guy , Jordan called.”
“I told you to put me directly through if he called! Why didn’t you?”
“Well I was going to sir, but he told me not to bother. He said just tell you that he wouldn’t be coming in tonight because his flight was delayed.”
“What the fuck do you mean his flight was delayed? There are other flights! Why didn’t he get another one?”
“I don’t know sir. Shall I try and ring him back for you?”
“No, listen just go home. It’s after five. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“Are you sure sir? Because I could stay around and do some other stuff if need be.”
“No, it’s fine Patrick,.See you tomorrow.There's no need to try and kiss my ass all in one day,” he shouted as he slammed his phone shut.
Patrick couldn’t help but grin at what he had accomplished. He had convinced Brian that his sweet Justin wasn’t coming and now he could go to the airport and get his first glimpse at his competition.. Really ,what could this child have? He wasn’t even thirty yet! What could he possibly have that kept Brian coming back for more
*****
Michael was nervous.
He had given Hunter his dinner and sent him to bed and was waiting up for Ben. It was time that he stopped being scared and just told him what he did. So he went on the net and did a search and tracked down Ben's father. It didn’t take much when he was in the same town with Ben. He was right downtown,so why was Ben avoiding him? Michael heard the key turning and knew it was the moment of truth.

Patrick stood at the terminal waiting. Waiting to see the little blonde bitch as he exited the plane with a smile on his face, looking for Brian to be there and then finding no one. He wanted to see it. He needed to see the disappointment, the hurt, and all the pain.Yeah,he needed that bad. It would be so easy taking Brian from Justin. The kid never had a chance when it came to him getting what he wanted -and he wanted Brian Kinney.
****
Brian knew that it was totally ridiculous to be waiting at an airport, but something just told him that he needed to be there. He looked at the doors where the people were departing and that’s when he saw it. Justin's smile when he saw he was standing there waiting. It was enough to get him out of the funk that he had been in.
“Brian! I was afraid that you weren’t going to get my message! You really have to do something about that assistant of yours.”
“What? He told me that you weren’t coming.He said that you couldn’t get a flight out,but something just told me to come here."
“I told him that I was going to be late, but I don’t know- there’s just something about him. Where’d you find him?”
“Cynthia found him.But enough about that, Sunshine. You’ve been in town for twenty minutes .Enough with the chit chat !I got things that you and I need to be doing,preferably naked.”
**********
Patrick watched the two people leaving the airport hand and hand. The little blond was even giggling,which was totally getting on his nerves. His head began to pound. Maybe this would be a little harder than he thought. He took his pad from his pocket and composed his list.
First thing had to do was get a new haircut, then pick up Brian’s dry cleaning . Brian had to look good for a big meeting on Friday and an interview with Forbes magazine.
Finally,he had to kill Justin Taylor..
Oh yeah,he had to do it soon.
