    Oh, it had to go there at some point. I would say they both instigated it.

    Tangled

    “Oh my god… What did we do?” I awoke with the morning light shining through the dorm window. We were still naked, and Danny still had his arm draped around my chest. The arm that had brought me such comfort… The warmth of his body… I slid out from under his grip and sat up on the edge of the bed. I put my head in my hands. It had to have been some kind of dream. I hurried to the shared restroom between our room and the one next door to ours. I cleaned myself up and returned to fi

    Awkward

    Every time I promise no sequels I end up writing one, so... Sure, it'll be in the sequel. 🙃

    Jake's dad might need to be fixed, but that's another story. (snip snip...)

    This went in so many directions I don't even know where to start.... So I won't! See ya 'yeeter!' ☺️

    Getting too close could come back to haunt Jake eventually.

    We had a Drive-In in my hometown. I only went a few times. They would play two movies each on two opposite-facing screens. If you didn't like the movie you were watching, you could just turn the other direction and watch the other movie. I thought every neighborhood had one and never realized how unique it was.

    Don't give away all my secrets! 😄 Hell, the "string" could be my sanity at this point!

    When you get so used to saying awful things about someone who hurt your friend, you might not think about who else is around when you say them.

    Ouch!!! My bleeding heart. Am I really that old? (Don't answer that!) Kids these days...

    This is the answer. Jake doesn't live in Donora, he lives in Mon City. The two are close to each other along the river. Aiden also lived in Mon City, which is why he rode his bike along the road to get back and forth between the towns. Danny lives in the same wealthy neighborhood the Taylors did where Dustin got arrested. They'd all be in the same fictional school district. (They're in the same district in real life too, but "Mon Valley High" is like "California University" in that it might resemble a place but it's fictionalized to protect the innocent.)

    "My temper was nothing compared to some of the epic explosions Brett had been known to unleash. There was a reason he’d been kicked out of private school. If I was a firecracker, he was a nuclear bomb when he got mad. He was especially known for throwing things when he lost his temper. But while I would stay mad Brett would get over it fairly quickly. He always felt terrible about it afterward." - WAR 1.3 Morning at Grandma's House Young Brett could be a vicious little brat.

    One person's "slut" is another person's "player."

    I agree in a way, sure. A label applied to another vs. a label claimed for oneself... Interesting.

    Are you saying the boys tend to dislike anyone who becomes a challenge to their relationship with the other?

    We haven't even scratched the surface on what sexuality, attraction, and gender truly are. We're at the level of looking at the sun and saying it revolves around the Earth kind of understanding. I'm a continuum thinker myself, which probably comes through my writing. My characters tend to be "heteronormative acting." We're all on that scale somewhere, and few of us stay fixed in one place. Resistance to labels is kind of a Gen X (of which I'm a part) specialty.

    It's my pleasure to do it. Takes my mind off of things. As for the boys, well, relationships are complicated!

    "Some of my best friends are gay/black." Yep. Ironic that a kid who once peed on a teacher's desk in front of the whole class has now become the teacher.

    That's my red flag right there .Jake and Danny had two sexual encounters and in both cases Danny has a GF within a week after it happens.Not a coincidence Nope, not a coincidence at all!

    Thanks! I think I started to find my groove in this chapter. Brett always appreciated the classics, Billy was the metal head.

    And you gave me those sweet, sweet comments!

    That's because Billy was telling it. Billy, who had to tell you every thought going through his head... 😛

    That was the case, a rather "gnarly" scar at that according to young Mr. Reilly!
