Aw c'mon, you cannot do this to me The next chapter better be up soon! *scowls* Great work, though!!

I'm REALLY looking forward to Ty's reaction... That Neil guy is kinda creepy. I was more hoping for just a fan of Jim that is in trouble with his situation at home and receives a little help... not some creepy stalker... but the further we get, the more it looks like it. Deon's meeting with his dad should happen, too. Keep it up, it's great!

That night should definitely be interesting. ;3I missed them, too, and I still will miss them until this damn semester is over! ^.^ Thanks for your review!

Wow, this was awesome! Like in the last story, there is a whole bunch of plots to follow, not only one. Dave's story sure sounds interesting. That guy from the very beginning of the prologue, too. I hope there won't be too much drama... Looking forward to reading more!

Thanks for your review! Lots of questions... Luckily, most of them will be answered soon.

Awesome! I've been waiting for this update for like forever ^^ It was a great chapter. I can't wait for the next update! It's probably kinda weird, but the thing I'm most interested in is how Richie's doing. I can't wait for him to wake up... and I hope that by the time he does, Justin is more stable... It's gonna be really interesting to see how he will react...speaking of being stable, I really hope this will have a happy ending. I like happy endings. I hope you do, too... ^^ The way he's going right now, it's not looking good. He has a new resolve to fight the darkness, and that is good. Invading Doc's mind like that... That's definitely bad, but it can be explained and excused, more or less anyway. But lying to Taryn like that... well Justin does have his reasons, but this doesn't work... it's gonna backfire on him bad.... lies and more lies... I really hope that this works out well. <.< Keep writing! I really hope I won't have to wait another six months´for the next update! >.< Love

Josh The noise of the basketball repeatedly hitting the ground was echoing through the driveway. Cody looked at me, trying to find a way past me while dribbling the ball back and forth. I was unsure whether I should just attack or wait for him to make a move. Basketball really wasn’t my thing, but since Jacob played it, I had no choice but to learn it, too. At least that was what Ethan had told me. I had a feeling that was just his excuse to kick my and Cody’s ass at the game. It was only Cody

WOW, such a great work! I really love the way you are telling this story. I wish I could comment on the content, but right now my brain feels like mashed potatoes... University's killing me right now ^^ It was really great to have this read though, thanks! This finally gave me half an hour of relaxation and took me on a journey away from earth and all it's bad things like exams, papers and the like... xD I am positive that I will write a better review for the next chapter... by then university should be over. Keep it up! Love Sammy

I like it. No big, elaborate stuff, just a story, told in simple wording; and that makes it so much more real.

Thanks!I'm still thinking about if and how much I will write about the actual trip in Washington... we will see soon.

Yeah, I mostly neglected and then forgot the whole iPhone thing... I will have to think it over when I do the final edit...As for the weekend, I don't see much of a problem for Josh, since he will probably spend the whole weekend with Ethan (and Cody) so the only people who could notice something are Ethan's parents, and they will probably not hang around those a lot. Of course, that is only if nothing unplanned happened. :3 Jacob has greater chances of screwing up, since everyting is new in Washington and while Josh claims he doesn't know his way around there either, Jacob really does not know the city at all, nor Josh's grandparents... but if he plays it smart, that should be okay... even if Josh's grandparents might think that he is acting weird at times. ;3 Thanks for the review!

Haha, I like how he kicks ass. He now has found a way to handle the things that bother him and that's great to see. I suppose I would be similarly pissed at his parents... Now he only has to take care that he doesn't make any decisions that backfire on him in some way. He's got a major amount of power, about life and death, really. If he is not careful what he does, he might quickly have something to regret... I can't wait for more! Keep it up! :3

This was a great story! I totally didn't see this coming, but thinking of it, it was a great choice. At least I was focused on the younger players, not the ones who were with the club longer (dunno why, maybe because I had the impression that the older players didn't really aim for AFL anymore?). It was also more interesting as if it had been one of the players without a girlfriend, and the fact that there was the whole dad/brat thing with Ty, that added even another twist. I have to say, kudos for doing this. I know it's kind of a personal topic and my greatest respect that you in a way... How to say?... approached this whole subject in this story (first with Deon and now with Jim and Ty). I really enjoyed reading this story! There was a lot of background stuff that got lost on me (football specifics, or the names/number of characters... lol I would totally fail to give you all the names of the team... and if you'd ask for their girlfriends, I'd get 2-3 maybe...) but even if I don't remember all of that, it contributed to the general feel of this story. It must have been a ton of work to think all of this through and make up so many things! Also, it is rare in this genre (gay fiction) to find stories that will have you wonder about important things like you did with our closeted team member. Usually you can predict most things or at least say it's option A or option B, but you totally had us there... I was several times sure I know who it was, but then you'd reveal another detail that would prove my whole speculation wrong. Great job! Can't wait for your next story, keep it up!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot! :3Ian is really trying and that's nice to watch

Thank you! As for Ethan, we might know soon ;3 At least the weekend sets a great stage for that to come out (haha... okay that pun wasn't really all that funny xD) Thanks for your review :3

Haha, I do not think that you can read that into this chapter

Josh “Have a good weekend, Josh,” Mr. Fisher said to me when I passed him. “Enjoy your trip to Washington!” “Thanks!” I replied with a smile, faking to be in a good mood. “The same to you.” As I left the classroom, I turned my eyes to the ground and continued my way out of the school building. I had been feeling glum all day. After Jacob had told me about Philip and Seth, I had done my best to avoid him without it being too obvious. It had worked some, but he had clearly noticed that somethin

I just love when Will does what he did here. The people expect it least from him, but he gets 'em worst with his questions... just amazing. ;D

It is Ty! I'm pretty certain about it, now! Though actually, I'm not, LOL But the way it was written with Ty, particularly the ending, suggests that it is him. considering his former reaction to Tony (buying the beer and all), the thing about sticking together as a team - especially after having defined Tony as a member of the team, it seems totally out of character for him to now have problem with this sorta thing. Also the way he was talking to 'dad'.... yeaaah I'm pretty certain it's Ty :3 The only thing that is against that is the whole deal with his 'girlfriend'. Though we do know that our mysterious gay guy does have a girlfriend... and Tony didn't originally consider talking to him yet then allowed him to talk to other people, which he didn't allow others... I'm just wondering, I don't quite remember but there might've been a night where HE went to the gay club and we also read a scene about Ty at another club in that night... but in these days I simply don't have the time to go back and check that... :S Actually, I hope it is Ty. I would really like that. Anyway, I'm rambling. it's 6 am, hence bed time! Great writing, keep it up. I'm really looking forward to reading more!

Heeey, I am so happy about this chapter! It included a lot of things that I have been waiting for since the start of this story. Though it IS slow, I like that, and it does look like things are really picking up now (at all fronts, really). It's like 4am (so I'm super tired) and I have not only been super busy with university during the past days, but my partner for a presentation on Tuesday is going to kill me if I don't deliver some serious results by tomorrow... So I am not even going to try to give a more elaborate comment on the content - instead Ima go crash for tonight. I hope that I will have the time I need to write something longer and more thought through when the next chapter is being released! We should chat some time again! I miss talking to you! ;3 Have a good night and keep it up, it's outstanding work!

Oh God! You're playing dirty! So apparently it's not Paul... or is it? LOL I was so sure! :S But from what you said at the end I assume that we will soon know. Looking forward to that! The set up with Paul was mind-blowing, I have no idea what to believe anymore... ^-^ Also, kudos for the first part at the radio station. I have no clue about all of that, but if anything of it makes sense, it must've taken a great deal of research! Lol I'd rather write a historical fiction about ancient Rome than trying to grasp the concepts of sports and the leagues, but it was very interesting to read. Usually I skim those background information parts in stories, but this time I didn't! :3 Excited to learn what Tony will come up with. Whatever it is, I'm sure I will love it! Can't wait for more! Sammy

Finally a solution/explanation to that problem! Keep it up, good job!

This was very very very mean! LOL I love how the rumors developed. Great writing. Hoping to see the next chapter very very soon!

Huh, sorry? I only understood half of that. :3But I am happy that you like it!
