What We Did on Our Summer Vacation
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in What We Did on Our Summer Vacation
He's definitely exploiting Dustin's vulnerability. -
It kind of comes out of nowhere, doesn't it? This was a fun one to write. Brett has gone through a lot in the last few days, and he doesn't quite know what to do with it all, so he takes it out on his mother. And she slapped him, which really set him off. He was already irritated, that pushed him over the edge. It's never good when Brett starts to stew in his anger. Once it's unleashed, no one is safe.
-
Definitely a mixed bag of emotions going through the boys. They just went from their biggest fight to their first time having sex in one hour. Quite the yo-yo! Brett thought he was ready but he really wasn't. Now he finally has to deal with what he's done.
-
This is the low point for Brett, for sure. He said things he'll regret for the rest of his life. But now there's an opportunity to grow.
-
Yes, they're acting out of their own pain and trying to hurt each other.
-
They each know how to hurt each other in the worst way, and this time they didn't hold back.
-
Thanks! They need each other, that's for sure. I think that's part of what drew them to each other. They each have something the other one needs.

Joey always seems to know more about what's going on than Billy does, and he uses it to be a bully.

The roller coaster has its ups and downs! Enjoy the ride, my friend! -

Thanks Noah! I think it's important to deal with the issues you're talking about and talk about them. Too often we hide those feelings rather than face them. I'm glad this story gives people the chance to see what it's like to be at this point of desperation, and to know it's okay to get help. -

Well, they really are all a little bit messed up in some way. But you're right, Billy needs help to get past his anger issues. -

Yep, we had to break him completely so we can put him back together, hopefully a little wiser than before. -
Em is much more perceptive than Billy gives her credit for, and she's known him his whole life so she has a perspective that Billy is blind about. He really thinks nobody has figured him out.
-
Too smart for his own good, eh? I could be that way too!
-
He can always dig himself deeper, don't worry!
-
Oh Billy does have issues, that's for sure, but nothing too terrible. He'll be okay in the long run, but getting through the teen years isn't much fun for many of us!

Brett Gets a New Boyfriend
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in Brett Gets a New Boyfriend
I know and you know she knows, but does he know that she knows? -
I knew I was stretching it when I wrote it. I probably should have bumped Cold Winter up a year. I think it would have worked better. 9/11 would have been fresh though, and I didn't feel lie addressing that too much. Oh well!
-
That's a neat idea!
-
Or maybe deep down he knew Billy wasn't ready yet?
-
It sucks when your own body turns against you.

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

He just wants someone to love him, even if he'd never admit it! -
