Well like so many of us, Charlie can see other's problems crystal clear. He is great helping them. However, as Barbara said, he has yet to figure out himself. Stay with me for more soon.
I'll give you tomorrow. I get about one to two chapters a week between work. What can I tell you. Glad you are reading. Was worried people were losing interest.
LOL. Well you nailed Maria. My favorite little beta can stick out her tongue at the oddest of times. Nice to see she has so many fans, yourself included Mark.
Chapter 15 – The Fun Never Stops
Charlie could feel the heat on his cheeks. Oh my God. No wonder I couldn’t find a ring. He is gay! The news wasn’t making him upset, but it did make him nervous in the pit of his stomach.
“Um,” began Charlie rather shyly and softly. “You know I did bring dessert.”
Scott looked Charlie up and down than smiled widely. Charlie blushed even more deeply.
“I meant I brought dessert for everyone.”
Frosty,
You opened yourself up for this one and let your love and pain out in this. It was beautiful to read. I hope you don't mind my message to you. I truly enjoyed this and it brought back memories of my grandfather on my mother's side, my grandmother on my father's side, and my own mother. It is hard to lose people you love but your memories of them keep them with you always and remind you just how much they loved you as well.
The world had light and dark to it and nothing I do stays totally in one. For every peak there is a valley. But yes, seriously considering expanding this and considering one of the authors I truly enjoy has offered to beta for me, this is my next project. Thanks for the encouragement.
Well that was unexpected. I suppose she was the girl we seen working earlier in the garden. Hmm. Wonder just what is going to happen here. The son jealous of her, she is working for Dad, Beth has examined her. So just what do you have in mind for us oh Dark Author? Till your next chapter.
Death is always something that marks you. You are lucky to have such beautiful memories to keep her close to you. The bird is fragile but if it isn't shown and shared is it worth the love it was given? Don't hide what means the most to you, it is fragile but that is what makes it so special. Thank you for reminding me of those I have loved and lost as well.
Well I wonder if all the other pranks were just them kissing and making out? Hmm. Loved the way they went through so much to make it happen. However I think the guard might have had the best part of the stake out.
I am glad you could relate to Charlie. As for waiting for chapters, don't start. You have me reading two of yours and now you aren't even going to post the one story till you finish it all. Sigh. Hard to be a reader sometimes.
Stu you mean all that teasing and you didn't know. But honestly, Charlie is just that sort of guy. Most things go over his head. He just a sweet heart.
Charlie is 22. He was a late in life baby and was born about the same time as all his nieces and nephews. His closer to in age to them, then his brother's and sisters. His brother Bobby is the closest in age and that is 19 years between them.
Two men as different as night and day. You made a great point that most of the audience wasn't there for the clothing but for Alex and Raven. Alex the ice queen and Raven of passions. Hot on stage, cool behind the scene. Over all another interesting read Nephy. But then you do have such a talent for dragging your reader in and making them stay for the ride.
Sam,
In chat you say so little and yet you get your point across. Here you have done the same. Your ability to put so much meaning with so few words. It was a truly interesting read and I enjoyed it greatly.
Well I am glad you read them all. I can't help that the story isn't done. I do try to give you a reason to keep coming back. Don't worry Barbara isn't done with Charlie yet.
Jerry is a klutz. There is no denying he is going to be causing some sort of accident no matter where he goes. He is cute but a total disaster.
I feel for Chris. He knows his life is going to be one long trial of keeping his boyfriend from becoming someone's punching bag or keeping him from falling down a flight of stairs and breaking his neck. He is so sweet and dependable. These two just sort of go together. Hopefully the rest of their night goes well.
