def. of devastation This Story to all parties involved. What a sad outcome for all. Heartbreak, sickness, and a child mixed in.

After getting off to a bumpy start, looks like Eli might be just what the doctor ordered. Very cute chapter:)

Very, very cute!

Can't decide if he was a super hero or psycho. Liked it tho:)

I'm with Gene on this one.. Possibility for more? Believable and refreshing at the same time. Loved it.

Managed to smile through tears. Loved it!

Just plain heart wrenching Again, thanx for sharing your talent.!

A year's wait? I'm like Kitt. What the hell kind of appointment did he need? Good piece ,but you left us hanging

So damn sweet and funny!

I am so glad you decided to post these stories. Each one stands alone with a point needing to be made, and a story needing to be told. I'm enjoying them so much, Graeme. Thanks for sharing.

You got me on this one But, I'm glad. A lot better than someone getting hurt...............

Steve's death had a domino effect, and it spewed forth a very sad, but what could be a very realistic story. A gay teenager in hiding is traumatic enough without a pregnancy piled on, and then being caught with the brother. Wow! Can I just say that although Steve's father showed a weakness, I can understand it at this point. His wife's determination was like opening the wound each time she talked about it. But, Penny found out what she wanted to know, and the best thing of all was her finding out took a lot of burden from these young people, and even offered a safe haven. Great story!

You are being mean with your writing this week:P Leaving us hanging with Vincent and Haje sitting on the beach after Vincent flirted with Haje. I Certainly hope you have the next chapter ready to go, or I'm going to hunt you down and hold you at gunpoint until you get it written. lol. This story is getting better and better!

This gave me chills. But, this is where it starts, with the child. Love is love, and they should be taught that. I believe it with all my heart, and taught my child and I'm teaching her child(my grandson) the same. So beautiful, and thanks for sharing. BTW, if you've anything else you'd like to share, I'd love to read!

Good grief. You give us the great sex scene that is off the charts, and then make us cry. Dang. I didn't know whether to cry of scream in frustration when Alexi had to leave Joshua. Poor Joshua. When that tough guy cried, I had to cry. "borrow ond of Suzuki's kleenex". sobs pitifully

Can't believe I'd missed this great chapter. Oh well, just gave me two good reads. I feel so much for the boys, having to be seperated. Glad Joshua got to meet Phillip. At least, he knew that Alexi had talked about him favorably to his family. Love this story!

Wish Eli would have said what he really meant!

Seems Noah has a pair of helpers here. lol

So Thorne, I'll take the plunge. I found it amusing that your story had so many views, and no reviews. Makes me think the readers are curious, but were scared to leave a review. It is pretty graphic in places, and the language can put some off. But just reading it, overlooking some of the pretty tough language, I found nothing wrong with the story. Jacob is a total douchebag, and poor Oliver was at the brunt of all his crap, even if Jacob did submit to kissing and sex finally. Gotta tell you tho, the fireplace thing made me fall out laughing. I could kind of see why the parents had to laugh. What else could you do? If they had punished the boys, and kept them apart, they would've had to explain why to friends I certainly wouldn't want to relate the story to anyone that wasn't there to witness it or the aftermath. Just a word of caution. I know you believe in writing what you feel, but you're a good writer, and this story shows you that some readers can't stomach a lot of the "f" word, and verbal abuse that Jacob piled on. The sausage deal was not that big a deal. It was funny as hell to me, and I'm sure others found it amusing. I'm just being honest with you in my review. You seemed concerned that there wasn't anyone reading. I think it was just read, not well received by some, but many read and just don't take the time to review. The anthos are a prime example of that. If you check out the reviews compared the the views, there's a huge difference. If you want my opinion about the story in more detail, pm me. Otherwise, I'll leave it as is. It's your story, after all, and you know I think you're a great writer.

TAkes a special writer to tell such a great story through poetry, and you did that. The wise and the arrogant always clash. Great poem!

Great take on the theme, Andy. You handled your content in a very diplomatic, but very interesting way. It's sad to think that things like this go on to this day in schools. The administration find it easier to turn a blind eye than to turn a stone to reveal what is going on. I liked this very much. Different sometimes makes it better, and in this case, it did.

I love to explore abandoned houses, but you just cured me of the fact. Finding resident evil has never crossed my mind when exploring. The worst I"ve ever unleashed was either a rodent, or spider. Vampires and skeletons, no. Needless to say, I'm sure I'll think of this again before I sleep tonite, so, I hope you have nightmares also Seriously tho, great story, well written, and if it had been longer, I'd still be reading, but only in the daylight.

For one so young, you write emotions like someone twice your age. Pulls the reader right into your story, and I for one felt the fear, and feeling of being lost so many times throughout the story. Great job as always from one of my favorite writers

Lost a bet, and gained an abused young man. It's funny how circumstances moves you in wierd directions. Great job!

How funny and delightful!
