Lisa As you probably know by now, Dillon was found guilty, but not guilty of everything. But at least he was found guilty of something and won't be out on the streets. I write under the name UpliftedSpirit because while I know conflict is necessary to make a story interesting, I also think it's important to have positive role models. That's why Matt's parents are so great. Andy's have been coming along and as they have, so has Andy. I think I may be a mix of both characters. I don't think I realized it until the last couple chapters.

Knots 3 Chapter 17 Matt All of us went to court to listen to the closing arguments. Wheeler was awesome and the defense didn’t seem to have much of a case, but who knew what the jury would decide. We got back to school just before lunch so I didn’t bother to go to class. I went directly to the elm tree. The bell rang and I stood there by myself feeling stupid. If Gina didn’t show, I was going to look like a fool for the second time. I began to pace while watching the fro

Louis, thanks for your vote.

Bjorde You bring up a good point about the victims having a say. I have of course decided what the outcome will be already, but thought readers might like to take a jab at it. He does need help. Thanks for commenting.

They are deliberating now. What would your verdict be?
-
Thanks as usual Lisa for taking the time to write a comment. For some being young doesn't keep them from looking for love. The young sometimes fail to realize they have about 60 years ahead of them to find one or more loves.

Knots 3 Chapter 16 Matt Gina’s talking to me. I can’t believe it. She’s only been on my mind over the last few months because Andy, Thomas, and I were having sex. Girls are a puzzle to me now that I’ve been having sex with guys. I’m not sure she was ever someone I lusted after. For that matter, I don’t think I ever lusted after anyone. After all, lust is one of the seven deadly sins. That had nothing to do with it, but it just seemed like it wasn’t the right way to look

Knots 3 Chapter 15 Matt We had a basketball game that Friday. All the basketball players wore their jerseys to class. I looked at myself in the mirror that morning and there was someone else staring back at me. It wasn’t the Matt Spence I used to know, but someone else. Something in my eyes looked different. Confidence used to show in those eyes, and suddenly they were filled with fear and doubt. I had no idea what I was afraid of. Looking back on it now, I think it’s bec

Knots 3 Chapter 14 Andy Thomas and I laid there on the old rug after we had sex. I held him in my arms and he snuggled in close. It made me think there was hope after all until he said, “Andy, I really like you. The sex was hot. But it’s only sex. I don’t have the same feelings about you that you have toward me. Sorry.” “You mean all this hot sex has nothing to do with love?” “It can I suppose, but now what?” “But I love you.”

Knots Chapter 13 Dillon’s Testimony Banta called Dillon Burke to the stand. Dillon was dressed in a tailored dark blue suit with a red, white, and blue striped tie. He walked up to the witness stand looking every bit like a businessman. He stood erect and walked with confidence. It was hard to tell if it had been rehearsed, but Dillon fit the part perfectly. Dillon was sworn in and sat in the witness chair, moving around a little in the chair until he was comf

Thanks Astro. It's always nice when someone takes the time to write. I wonder what everyone will think after I post chapter 13.

I liked the coaches speech a lot. I was a coach and have seen all the things that go on in locker rooms and sometimes guys are just very up front and crazy without thinking sometimes. So the coach sometimes gets a hint of what might be going on from listening to the kids talk.

Lisa, I'm glad you found Randy so funny. It was fun writing it because I wanted to make sure his personality came out in his testimony and you prove that it did. Thanks.
-
Yes, for some reason the whole chapter didn't get posted. I'm not sure why. Must have been a glitch when I uploaded it. It's fixed now.
-
I guess we'll never know. But at least we can hope Jackass Barnes learned something.

Knots 3 Chapter 12 Andy Matt and I walked to the bus stop that morning and all I had on my mind was sex. “Matt, we gotta get together and fuck. Aren’t you horny?” He grinned. “Yeah, thanks to you I’m always horny, but what can we do. I’m grounded and so are you.” Let’s go out for a run tonight and we can stop at the vacant house. Let’s invite Thomas.” “Why Thomas?” Obviously I wasn’t being too subtle. “Well, we could ha

Knots 3 Chapter 11 Kyle’s Testimony “The prosecution rests,” Wheeler said after Randy’s testimony. Judge Fienberg turned to the defense table. “Are you ready to present your defense?” Banta stood up and answered for the group. “We’d like to call Kyle Jarvis to the stand.” Kyle entered the courtroom dressed in slacks, a button-down shirt, tie, and a sports coat. The bailiff swore him in and he moved to the witness box. “Are

Paul, thanks for your regular comments. Andy is maturing. Matt's maturing too but in a different way. I love writing the court scenes. It's fun. Not that the other isn't, but it great playing a lawyer on both sides.
-
Asto, glad you liked the chapter. I'm also pleased to hear from you every week. Gina does have a right to be angry. I wonder how long it will take for her to finally talk to him. Glad to know you find Ollie funny.

Knots Chapter 10 Randy’s Testimony Randy came to court dressed in jeans and a polo shirt. He swaggered a little on his way to the witness chair. He was sworn in then took his seat. Roger Wheeler approached. “Randy, three of your friends testified before you. My purpose is to have you verify their testimony. Do you understand?” “Yeah.” “Was it your intention, at any time when you first met the defendant, to have sex with him?” “No. But I though

"Billy Chase" #366 is up!
Uplifted Spirit replied to Comicality's topic in Comicality's Shack Clubhouse's Cafe
Comsie, Lisa told me it's your birthday. Happy Birthday. Glad to see your life is relatively back to normal and we can have more of your great writing. I haven't read Billy Chase in awhile, but started reading it again yesterday. I like that you have the story in books now. That way I can read a book at a time or figure out where I last left off.

Knots Chapter 9 Thomas’ Day in Court Continued D.A. Wheeler took a quick glance at the jury after Thomas’ last answer, noticed the look on their faces, paused, and said, “No more questions.” Judge Fienberg looked at the defense table. “Are you ready?” Banta rose. “Yes, Your Honor.” “Thomas, Mr. Wheeler asked you if you were gay and you said you hadn’t experienced anything else. Does that mean you’ve never had sex with a girl?”
-
Glad to hear you are finding the story keeps taking turns. I've grown to like Thomas too. I have plans for him and one of the other boys, but I'm sure you'll end up being surprised who it is. Somehow they will have to find a way to have some sex, but their parents are so upset, who knows how they'll get away with it. But I'm sure they are resourceful enough to figure out a way.

Sometimes guys do the damndest things in the locker room. I saw a lot of it when I was a kid and it's probably worse now because kids are more open about things. I can see where a woman would be surprised at what guys do in the locker room or when they're just goofing around. The guys kissing in jest is something crazy guys would do because they don't figure anyone will think they're gay.
