I can totally understand where Liz is coming from. Forgive and forget aren't something I'm known for. If I were in a similar situation where I see a friend I've invested a lot in taking back someone who I don't think is deserving of it, I wouldn't be civil, much less forgiving. In fact, if I had to talk that friend in from the ledge over a guy who broke his heart just so he could go back to him years later, I'd be fucking pissed!

Great chapter!! Bella is such a sweet, quiet girl. Glad she had a great birthday. Absolutely adore Kasey! He'll have his college paid for, and then some, with all of the adults saying bad words! Lol!! Looking forward to Kaleb and Davis' wedding!

Honestly, I didn't like Chris at all after the first chapter. Thought he was just another disrespectful d-bag jock. I admit, he's really grown on me. I think he's definitely softened since, thank goodness! Lol!! I also love both stories. I feel that Chris should definitely have a happy ending.

Great chapter! Loved how Jimmy knocked Preston down a few pegs. I agree that Jimmy is far from being finished with Preston, and he deserves every bit of it!! I also noticed how comfortable both Jimmy and Drake felt being a "couple". It will be interesting to see how their relationship evolves. Looking forward to more!

I also think that people are too quick to give in to talking to Ryder so they don't upset Teddy. For example, he threatened to move if his parents didn't allow Ryder to stay at the house. I had to shake my head at that one. A 31 year old fucking doctor threatening to move out of his parent's house if he didn't get his way....and they give in to shut Teddy up. I would have called his bluff! Lol! I do agree with distancing urself from a situation if u don't like it, because honestly I would have distanced myself from Teddy and Ryder already.

First of all, despite how he got there, he's back in his old role of being Teddy's boyfriend. There's no how dare Ryder. Teddy is making a stupid choice, and forcing everyone to go along with it. Yes, Ryder tried to kill himself, but when does the point come when he's held accountable for all the destruction he left behind. So, his life was shit upon shit upon shit. Does that justify him almost destroying the very people that were there to love and support him?? The whole let's forgive everything because he's a depressed alcoholic addict is bull. True, Liz probably needs to have her hands tied behind her back when let out into public, but Ryder needs to hear the truth. I'm so tired of everyone just looking past the horrible way he left things and sugar coating the truth.

I love a romantic, happily ever after story just as much as the next person. I'm also not one that forgives easily, if at all. Aside from Liz, everyone has made it too easy for Ryder to just walk back into his old role of Teddy's boyfriend, walking on eggshells, trying not to upset the great Ryder Sullivan. Yeah, I understand he still has the heart issue, but its still frustrating that Liz is the ONLY one who has had the guts to tell him the truth about the destruction he left behind. Depressed or not, Ryder chose to do everything he did, and he's getting off way too easy.

U have me hooked on this story already! I feel for Drake, having such a fucked up family. I can't imagine ever being excited to see them! Lol! I like Jimmy, too. Can't wait to see what he has to say to that asshat Preston. Have a feeling Jimmy's words can cut like a knife, and hope they do!

I applaud Liz! I don't think there's anything Ryder can say to gain her forgiveness, and honestly I don't blame her one bit. He's talking about being there for Teddy, but for what, the last couple weeks??? I would have slapped him again if I were Liz!! Ryder comparing him being there when Teddy gets home to Liz and Blake keeping Teddy from completely breaking is total bullshit! I wanted to slap Ryder myself! I wouldn't forgive Ryder either if I were Liz, and I'd be slapping Teddy a lot more for taking him back! My opinion has changed some as the chapters go on. I think Teddy taking Ryder back is stupid on his part. He doesn't owe Ryder shit! I also think its unfair for Teddy to make everyone forgive Ryder and take care of him, whether they were ready to or not. Ryder claiming how much he loves and missed Teddy is total bullshit too. If u miss and love somebody that much, u don't stay away for 14 fucking years! There's no excuse.

I'm glad Galen had that talk with Eddie. He's finally realizing he has to do something different, no matter how frightening it could be. Maybe Eddie will play a role in his direction, since he's went through kind of the same. Also, Galen seems to have a lot of trust in him. Still love this story, and looking forward to reading more!

Wow! I guess the lesson of this chapter is when u tell Liz something that's gonna piss her off, do it from afar....really far! Lmao!! Maybe she will soften after seeing Ryder, maybe not. She absolutely has the right not to. Either way, she rocks!! I think Oliver needed to see Ryder in that state. He seems to think its all fun and games having his idol under the same roof. Maybe now hopefully he sees the severity of the situation. I can totally understand where Teddy's dad is coming from. I'm not the forgiving type, so I can identify. I'm not even sure I could have forgiven Ryder if I were Teddy. For me, its just so much easier to hold a grudge and move on. Lol!!

Not so sure. The one that deserves a happy ending to his story instead ends up dead at 17.

I love your stories, Ronyx, but I don't kno that I can finish this one. The ending was at the beginning, and at this point the only people I care for are TJ and Randy's parents. I like drama, but this is a little too dark and depressing.

I don't kno how Teddy survives under the same roof as Oliver! He was right to stick up for himself, but his overall smart ass attitude is really getting on my nerves. I would have had to move out a long time ago! Oliver's parents let him get away with so much for so long, its a little late to try to change him now. Maybe if they hadn't given him everything he wanted his whole life, he wouldn't be such an ass. Yeah, he's only 13, but that's no excuse for lack of respect. .

I agree with the majority, my least favorite chapter. Sorry Randy, but its not cool to be that kind of affectionate with others when u have a boyfriend. I don't care what level of best friends u are! Then for TJ to be betrayed by the only other person he trusted, Carter. Since we all kno how the story ends, I'm assuming its only gonna get darker. I'm leaning towards suicide or accidental overdose as the reason he died.

I can't believe Billy let those two assholes get to him again! The longer he keeps the lie, the worse Brett's reaction is gonna be. He should have called their bluff! I bet they would have pissed themselves! Brett's mom and Jack are two of the most narcissistic assholes ever! So worried about their standing in the community! I can't wait til the lid is blown off their lie and the whole town knows exactly what kind of people they really are. Of course it won't come from Billy because he doesn't have the balls. I won't blame Brett one bit if he resents Billy when it all comes out.

Love it!! I knew Oliver was gonna play a part in Ryder's recovery. I think they will both be good support for each other. Oliver just has to watch that he doesn't push Ryder to do something he's not mentally comfortable doing. It seems Oliver, like almost every 13 year old, has the tendency to push and push not paying attention to any boundary lines. That could lead to a bad reaction from Ryder. They're definitely gonna have a problem with paparazzi. I'm sure that's gonna be so annoying!

I'm so proud of Ryder for being honest with Teddy. I would have lost all respect for him if he hadn't. I am, however, pissed at Ryder for telling Teddy to go easy on Nate. Nate doesn't deserve a break. He deserves to be pushed in front of a fast moving vehicle! Can't be near the hospital tho, because they would be too close to life saving equipment. Lol! I also applaud Teddy for keeping his cool. He had to have been totally boiling with anger. I kno I would have been.

That was NOT the ending I had expected. I hope Nate gets the most severe discipline he can get. FYI, I wouldn't be one bit opposed to him being eliminated all together 😉

Great to see a new chapter! Love Eric and Mike! Poor Chet, still having to put up with his bible beater grandma. I'm surprised they haven't found a way to keep her away from Chet, especially after what her own husband did. I wouldn't want my child anywhere near someone like her or the religious freaks she associates with! At least make the visits supervised. This visit totally sounded unsupervised, considering the questions she was asking. Luckily for them he's smart enough to come to his own conclusions. So happy for Eric and his rise to stardom. Glad he's got a level head and thinking about Mike and Chet first, and not himself. Looking forward to reading more!

So happy that Adam is safe from his bastard father! Hope he gets a good dose of karma in jail!

Great chapter! It was good to have a chapter from Oliver's perspective. U could hear in Ryder's words how much he still loves Teddy. I think Oliver might also play a role in Ryder's recovery and sobriety. They definitely had a connection. Their mom really needs to chill out. It was really unfair for her to accuse Teddy of being irresponsible for leaving Oliver with Ryder. They were in a hospital full of doctors and nurses for god's sake! Its obvious that Teddy AND his parents have a lot of healing to do.

Great start to the second book, or the continuation! This is gonna be a very interesting ride. Considering I'm not a very forgiving person, I'm very intrigued as to how this plays out. Personally, I think what Ryder did to Teddy was totally unforgivable, despite what his reasons were. The "sex tape" was unnecessary and very cruel. I don't blame Teddy one bit for being angry and bitter. Ryder is lucky he's speaking to him at all. Don't kno that I could do that if in the same situation. That being said, definitely looking forward to more!

I'm hoping if not a part three, maybe an epilogue???? Kinda begging here! Lol!

Aww, finally to the love of his life, Jacob! I don't kno if I could have taken any more stories about Charlie hooking up with losers! Lol!! Seriously, that whole group sounded so dishonest. I don't care what their reasons are. I could never do that, nor would I have the respect for someone's decision to do that. Glad to see Frankie is finally true to himself, and didn't send someone else to apologize to Charlie! Lol!! So excited to see how Charlie and Jacob's relationship evolved! Just love them as a couple!
