Aaron’s best friend in junior high, Teddy, became more than just a friend by the time they graduated one and two in their high school class. They went off to college together where their love continued to grow. As they completed their undergraduate degree, Teddy was accepted into the Medical School to become a doctor while Justin planned to go to the School of Veterinary Medicine. They had already decided they would graduate in their own fields and then, together, would go explore the world while helping those in need.
But sometimes best laid plans don’t come to fruition.
Aaron finds himself alone with a newly earned Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and, although it couldn’t be with Teddy, Aaron heads to Africa to help patience and, hopefully, find himself again.

Time heals all wounds, but some wounds are too deep. On the day Brian seeks Daphne’s help, it happens to be on the same day when Justin returns to Pittsburgh after years of absence. And he brings baggage and a sketchy past from New York. As much as Justin has tried to run from the lure of Brian's tangled web, he is about to fall right back into it. Will this time around be any different with the lessons they had learned over the years?

Alternative ending to Season 5
From a plot bunny I saw years ago
Brian and Justin got married in the ceremony they had planned. They loved their rings. There had been many times as Justin worked on an art piece he felt Brian’s heartbeat as he worked at his desk. Many times they felt their heart beats sync and they both would feel the connection. They still went out to Babylon and on certain nights agreed to party with others but only if they were together and only if both of them agreed. Most times they talked about a night like that they still went home together. There was a little flirting and a kiss or two but neither of them had broken the rules they had set for their marriage. Being able to feel the beat in the band made them feel more connected than ever.
