🎤 Jamie and Saaaam sittin' in a tree K I S S I N G 🎤 It's cute to see what might be blossoming between the guys but wonder how smart it is to get attached when he's going on vacay for three months. Curious about the dynamic between Mason and Jamie. Is it sibling rivalry between them or does Dad favor one over the other? Interesting story.

From one precocious child to another, I agree, ☺️. I wouldn't change it, tho. 😉 And, I'm getting it back now, 😄.

I agree with you. Jason showed his love for his family by keeping in contact with his parents in spite of that treatment and even trying to understand through the grandchild angle. At the same time, tho, it's like his parents punished him because he did not produce grandchildren. I wonder if the treatment would have been the same if he had?

Hickeys!! I love hickeys, giving and getting. The foreplay continues.... (For what it's worth with the format issues, I don't notice a big change, just an extra space between paragraphs but I read the stories from my phone so I don't know if that makes a difference.)

And the slant of incestuous relationships being key relationships in JD's life is very interesting. First his cousin and now his uncle.

The apology was huge. Jason was basically treated like a second class citizen in his family for 20 years; Only thing was the apology needed to come from Jason's parents and brother, not his innocent nephew. This family had been at the whims of a mentally unbalanced woman for 20 years, enablers much? It seems like Layla and JD won't be enabling her, tho. Very interesting story (and very hot, ☺️).

Kudos to your postscript to this chapter. That is all I feel I can say without being censored by the PTB. 😶 As to the chapter itself: it gladdened and resonated within my Mother heart. I have an almost six year old who still tells on themselves when major transgressions occur, too. I marveled at this when it first happened and then developed a bittersweet feeling with subsequent episodes-touched my young one feels they can tell me when they've done something wrong and sad because I know the older they get, this will happen less and less (tho I remain hopeful it won't). It was sweet to view the machinations of Maria's mind as she awaited her punishment AND still slipped in the bid for a cellphone!! HA!!!! You perfectly captured the mind of a little one. Thanks for giving us a slice of this branch of the Adams family. Please continue to prune their branches as you see fit. I know you take readership into consideration, I hope that does not override your muse. Good chapter, sojourn.

Short and sweet. This chapter felt like foreplay.

Interesting. Very interesting.

I knew realistically that he wasn't ugly but I cast him as the troll under the bridge due to his dreadful personality. It would be so much easier if all awful people were ugly but alas, life does not work that way. It was a good chapter, Gary, perfectly summarized by Bucket1. Until next Monday, my platonic friend. 😉 🍺

Yeah, he kind of does. I'm with you in wanting him to ignore Dick (well, that dick 😊) but he needs to confront him so that these demons he's been living with (and punishing J.D. with) can be slayed. Whether the conversation between Drake, Dick & Bernadette goes well or not, I think it will allow him to close this chapter and hopefully put it in its proper perspective.

And Richard and Bernadette staring at Drake during the wedding?!?! Them two better come in peace or they'll be leaving in pieces.

Damn!! Another chapter before the Dick confrontation?!?! Good set up, I think Callie smells something fishy but Drake knows he can tell her the truth (just NO WHERE within earshot of Preston). The white blond description of Preston's hair threw off my image of him; From J.D.'s "I thought you'd be taller" statement (which was an AWESOME intro line for that jerk, 😄) and his subsequent "asshatness", I pictured a short, stubby, slightly potbellied troll. 6 days, 23 hours, minutes until the next installment. ⏳

Congrats to the both of you on your recovery. 🎉🎁

Jeezus!! The emotions this story brings out. What a lovely addition to the family in Cody, he will fit right in. The whole Waters' family capacity for unconditional love defies words. I enjoy sharing their world with every new chapter.

D'oh!! Mild as far as cliffhangers go but equally frustrating, ☺️. I'm officially addicted to this story. (awaiting the next chapter with bated breath) 😳

Squee!!!! I'm so excited to see a new chapter!! (hoping you are well rested after your killer shifts). Thank you.

☺️ and congrats on the new granddaughter.

😢😪 Oli's letter. 😂 Ryder being "afraid" of Oli and getting in trouble. for the whole chapter. It was beautiful.

I think I love you, tho I've no chance with you (I'm a female 😄 😊) You bless us with the wisdom of your experiences through your amazing, thought provoking, writing talent. Those of us lucky enough to read your stories are allowed to consider varied points of view in fully fleshed, relatable scenarios. I know you know your journey was worth your destination. I wish you continued blessings wherever it is life takes you and yours. Thank you so much, Gary. Cheers 🍺

I guess Chris is a power bottom in bed and out? He wants someone else in charge but clearly doesn't want total domination or maybe he does and he likes provoking his "punishment". I like the example you mentioned of the unprotected sex, that impressed me, too.

Chris likes to be dominated. If there were never the change in Gregory after they first met, he probably wouldn't have resisted Gregory's controlling ways and they would have gotten involved sooner. As it is, they're taking the long way to that now, with some help from beyond the grave. I too, am curious about what drove Sr. and Jr. apart, as well as who was more responsible.

Wow. Very well done.

Aha. The pieces of the puzzle come together. I understand Preston's position more but we all make a choice on how we handle adversity. He doesn't have to be such an asswipe to Drake and if he has that kind of anger in him, he clearly needs therapy. The meeting with Richard will be interesting based on what we now know of that past as well. I am curious as to why J.D. dated other women if he says he isn't bi. Brilliant plot twist, Wordmaster; Is it next Monday yet? 😁

What. The. F^*k?!?! That whole situation shows miserable Gregory is-first he accused Chris of whoring himself to his dad & then "forbids" him to leave (which Christopher wouldn't want to do if he was a gold digger). Yeah, I get the terms of the will but G is in no position to order C around like that, especially since he won't be a butler the year that he's there. AND Christopher is taking this from him!! You've got people good and bothered with this story, 😄😳. I see additional chapter posted today....CHAAAAARGE!!!!
