Not much I can add to dr's excellent summary. I suppose the 'doctor' Chelsea is seeing regularly is a therapist for her depression. I also assume Tara and Chelsea has been meeting in secret ever since Chelsea was banned from seeing Tara, but maybe you do mean they've only been meeting for the past months ? If so I wonder how they happened to meet again. Were Adam involved with Daniel? Or perhaps he regrets not helping him when he had the chance? It seems to fit with the hints of his issues in the past. Silas definitely needs to think about the future rather than living from day to day. But it's hard to change a hitherto successful strategy.

I may have to go back through all the chapters and change Jas to Jazz. I like the vibe I get from your version.I'm not sure whether Jazz is encouraging Rob or not, but Nelson will probably tell them both to stop pushing, if they don't tone it down soon. But Rob giving them an hour of privacy may atone for many past and future blunders.

Thanks Gary, I'm glad you decided Rob wasn't too pushy - even after AC and I had toned it down I felt Rob was still close to the limit. But he knew when to back off so Nelson and Eric should set clear borders on his behavior.Young love making most of an opportunity is a theme which will be continued in the next chapter.

LOL, well I'm sure you're not the only one to dream about Rob and Jas. I have no objection, but the official line is still 'the Super Straight Duo' as opposed to the 'Cute Gay Couple'. Stereotyping is fun. And I know all about the scary things going on in your corner

Yes, they MAY have convinced Rob, but if not a few more forceful arguments may occur. Eric and Nelson have no need to show off their new relationship, but would rather explore in private. Behind a locked door. As per the end of the chapter. Stay tuned for more...

I have no idea what will happen Monday morning, but I'm hoping for nothing dramatic. AC will help me avoid unreal scenarios.I've looked at several possible NJ cities, but haven't made up my mind. Suggestions are welcome, but otherwise I'll stay with a fictional town of appropriate size. I'm writing as fast as I can, but have to stop to wipe up drool now and then.

“But why would you want me to meet you there?” I asked Rob. “Not that I don’t want to see you as early as possible,” I smiled at Eric next to me, “but getting Jazz up at six-thirty Monday morning is Mission Impossible.” “Hey, I can get up early for a good cause,” Jasper objected from the front passenger seat, glancing back at me with a smirk. “But meeting you in the coffee shop half an hour early, so Eric and Nelson get a few kisses in before class, hardly seems to be worth losing sleep ove

Poor Germany and Austria. Hope the latest SATW will cheer you up: http://satwcomic.com/eurovision-2015

Oh and GRATTIS Sweden, you did win. I'm sure that will cause another SATW comic.

Yeah, the third link was the first one she drew with Eurovision song contest and still the best. I also love the face of America at the end. Particularly since is the reaction of many Europeans when faced with strange US doings. I'm delighted to welcome more SATW fans. I recommend you start reading the comic from the beginning, but only on a day where you have nothing else to do. I laughed myself sick the first time I read SATW.

you're making me so happy I'm not watching. If you're bored during the voting, check out: http://satwcomic.com/eurovision-2013 http://satwcomic.com/the-winner-is http://satwcomic.com/eurovision-song-contest http://satwcomic.com/eurovision-2010 http://satwcomic.com/eurovision-Winners

I went back and read the previous band chapter before reading this again. I'm still a bit surprised about Brady having a curly beard. Not what I normally imagine on an eighteen-year-old, but OK. Anyway, I'm thrilled the band has a recording deal for the Navigator and now it makes sense for them to open with that song - and probably play it once more as an encore. The record company will want maximum exposure of the song for it to sell. The radio promotion is cool too, and the only question is who will hear it first: Tara, Ian, or people back where Silas came from. I hope Silas will call or text Jack when he hears the song.

Well, now we know why Casey has the slide lock too. Martin apparently has a key to his door and thinks nothing of invading his privacy. I'm surprised he's let Casey keep the other lock. I hope Casey will tell Shawn the truth about being a virtual prisoner, he can do that without revealing the other secret yet.

Bringing Liam's dad with them was an even better idea than I thought, Phil was able to relate to Bruce and the things he said about accepting Liam. Perhaps Mary should visit Beth (Liam's mum) ? Damn, I want Deon to have a chance to play with his friend Kev for the Swans, but this would mean Sam and Mark would stay in Sydney, rather than move to Melbourne. Not so good for Neil's relationship with Liam. But perhaps he'll be able to go home by then, if his dad can get rid of his homophobia. Or am I being overly optimistic? I was glad to see Ty admit he'd gone too far with the teasing of Jim, and kudos to the coaches for pointing out the team needs to support Jim. But hopefully he's been desensitized by their ribbing, so he'll be able to ignore comments from opponents or fans. Patrick and Peter were right about the brat. Getting his hopes up and not being drafted would destroy him. Because we know the Blues will picjk him if all goes well, it's not as bad for us, but I like to see the support from those around Ty, trying to boost his confidence without creating unreal expectations. Thanks for my weekly Saturday morning Leopard fix, Graeme. Now, I'll have to suffer the withdrawal symptoms until next week, sigh.

I think that's the most poetic summary of fifty years of life I've ever read.

More drama, almost melodrama, what with the girls kissing, the physical abuse by Pastor Simms, the snowstorm, Adelaide the rescue dog, and the confrontation between Silas and Ian. Be careful not to overdose. But I applaud Silas for once again being sensible and knowing he couldn't bring Chelsea to his camp. And his habit of always carrying everything he owns with him pays off now. I quite agree with him that he did need to ask Ian to be sure about his attitude to his brother being gay. I was proud of Silas for stating the reason for his leaving with no hesitation, and for making the decision to stay for now. I'm fairly confident he'll consider Ian's plea about no more running.

Oh Hell, Hel. That definitely was NOT being a good boy. But at least it will make going home to Aki and Ishca more desirable. And there's nothing like an empath to sort out such tangled emotional knots. But it's still gonna be embarrassing.

That's very perceptive, I am enjoying them.

'I think Evan missed Russ more than Russ could ever believe.' Spot on Eagle-eyes, and I'm pleased you saw this too.I loved your observation about innocent sex. And yes smells are very evocative and will trigger memories we didn't knew we had. This one was important for our understanding of Russ and Jacob.

I shall use the 666th review of Streak for an laugh about Will teasing Brad.

Thank you, CG, that's awsome praise from someone who spends a lot of time meticulously bringing to life a complete decade filled with real people.Yes the twin-bond had been stretched thin, but has now snapped back and is stronger than ever. I'm hoping it means they can become a little less intense and that Evan will be OK with Russ gallivanting off on another three month trip with Jacob.

I'm pleased Evan is starting to become real to my readers, making you comment on his issues. Yes, Evan was heartbroken over losing the closeness with his twin. He tried to persuade his parents to let him wait for Russ, so they could start high school together, but their father wouldn't allow it. It was truly the beginning of Evan losing his respect and love for his dad.And you're right, Jacob's love not only benefits Russ but also Evan, who is absolutely ecstatic to have his twin back in an 'improved' version.
