  1. Today was a break in the rain here, but more is due tomorrow. As for the talk, well Tony did sort of walk out of his friendship and Dillon didn't get much say in the matter. He might want to say a few things and who knows where that might take him. Thanks for reading and commenting.
  2. The nice thing about a prompt is it can go wherever you like. Thanks for reading and commenting.
  3. Tony had gotten up before the sun had even risen. It was the first day of his vacation and he didn’t want to waste it. He tossed a change of clothes into his old knapsack and figured he would hike across the city, maybe climb some of the hills overlooking the water. He wasn’t sure exactly what he wanted to do yet. He slipped on his hiking boots, slipped his keys and wallet into his knapsack, and marched out of the house. The early morning fog clung to him like a damp second skin. He w

    Chapter 1

    William, you took one of my darkest stories to read. I see this more as someone who has never had a friend or much of a life, telling his story. Where most people might start with their earliest memory, first day of school, learning to ride a bike, first love, accomplishments, friends, or whatever, Ron doesn't have these experiences. He can only go from abuse to abuse. The times in between would be huge gaps of nothingness. He is afraid and is totally alone. It is what makes him such an easy target. He wants a friend, love, and companionship, but has no idea how to about it. It is only now that he sees he can have these that the change might happen. Thanks for commenting.
  5. I have one or two new ones to add.

    Epilogue

    Val, this was a great story. Having been there I know what recovery is like. Penguin was so cute. Beautifully done.
  8. Okay, so I'm late coming to this. I remember meeting these beautiful men in various prompts, but not reading this. I'm sorry I didn't read it originally. It is now 3am and for just over three and half hours I read the whole tale. Needless to say I'll be looking for more.

    Thank you, Kitt.

    Thank you, Pupp. I don't think most of us know the impression we make on others. The acts of kindness or casual cruelty can do much to those around us, either to help or harm them. Bill is just a kind soul trying his best, and it is coming back to him. Thank you for the review.

    Thank you Cole. In many respects, older people are just ignored. Sometimes, just taking the time to say hello opens a door into a wealth of knowledge. Kindness is the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you for the review.

    Chapter 1

    In some respects, Bill is based on me. I can sleep like the dead, as long as you don't touch me the house could come down and I'd never wake. His friendship with friends and neighbors is something to aspire to. Thank you for the kind review.

    Thank you for the review, Caz. I just wanted to show that sometimes the best family is the one we make for ourselves. For Bill it was his neighbors and now the family of his partner. Ties of both family, community, gay, and straight. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Thank you for the review, droughtquake. I just wanted a story of hope and love. I figure there had been enough magical in my other Christmas tale.

    Thank you for the review, Tim. I've done the magical and wasn't after sadness, so this was a story of hope and love.

    Welcome to America, where everything is made in the microwave. Hope you enjoyed Sasha.
  22. Bill Mason slowly climbed the old wooden stairs to the porch. His arthritis was acting up with the change in the weather; the snow was due any minute. The sun was going down, as darkness came early this time of the year. As he reached his front door, Misty, his gray cat, came up and rubbed against his leg. “Hello, old girl. You ready to come in and get warm?” Bill smiled as he unlocked the door and entered the house. Misty slipped passed him and padded down the hall toward the kitchen. Bill t
  23. Bill has been living alone for a long time now. He takes care of his neighbors, being a lonely but helpful man. On Christmas Eve there is supposed to be a bad storm, but he checks on his neighbor's before going home to watch Television and relax with his cat, Misty. However, after Bill wakes up from his nap he finds his house has been redone for the holiday. Just what is Bill getting for Christmas?
  24. “Do you really think he did it?” Robbie stared at his mother, his spoon halfway to his mouth. “First, don’t talk with your mouth full,” Margie sighed as she put the milk into the fridge. “Secondly, did who do what?” Robbie swallowed his cereal before he spoke again. “Do you think Anthony proposed last night? “ Margie turned to look at her youngest son. “How do you know he was planning to propose?” “Moooom!” Robbie squealed. “I was with him when he got the ring.” Margie s
  25. HI all. I figured I would let everyone know I'm still alive and functioning. Just been a bad year. I have managed to get some stories done. Luckily I did them early. This has been a year of things going boom. My car died. My computer dies. I became a full blown diabetic. I lost 70 pounds. I've been really sick, but I keep going. I do apologize for not being around. Hopefully things will get better in 2017. Wishing everyone all the best. Just know I'm thinking of you if not here. Wayne
