    Epilogue

    Thanks for reading and reviewing! I'm glad you liked it through all the quick twists and turns the story took. It was at least a happy ending through all the drama.

    Chapter 9

    Yep, Sadie is finally happy. And, I believe in the next couple of chapters - the mother's motivations will become more clear. Thanks for reading so far, I'm enjoying your reviews! I'm trying not to spoil the story for you.
  4. It's Steven's birthday! And although I know I have a dreaded 30th 29th + 1 bday announcement coming from him - which I shall merrily beat him for, in less than 4 months. I shall happily wish him a happy birthday! So, Happy Birthday Steven! Hope you have a wonderful day!

    Chapter 1

    There is a lot that happens in a very short span of time with this story.. very fast paced. I know that may throw a lot of readers off the story, but I like how it progresses. Hopefully you will as well. Thanks for reading/reviewing. And she is a bit bossy... Not the very motherly type for someone that just found their son in a hospital to say the least.

    Prologue

    The Prologue is dark, yes. It is somewhat disconnected from the story as a whole.
  7. Welcome Gee Whillickers! Sorry your story(ies) were stolen and claimed. I just think, if you're wanting to be praised for something.. want some sort of attention.. want to contribute to a writing community to just WRITE. If it sucks, it sucks.. But you get better.. if you try. Anywho, thanks Cia, for the tips to keep our work safe. As expansive as the internet is, I say many of us are victims without even knowing. This is why I like GA - the staff and most importantly the readers fight for the authors here.
  8. I've seen videos of him w/out his mustache, after seeing Dorian for so long with it, makes me not like him without it. I think it adds to his personality. He is a very interesting character to say the least, out of all the M/M romance options, his is the only one that I'm interested in. Iron Bull, I don't like the overly brutish type either. Cassandra, Solas, Cullen, and Dorian are the four that I have a difficult time turning down in a new play through. I have a difficult time playing as a Dwarf or Qunari as well. I've tried multiple times, but I just fall out of interest pretty early. I want to see what reactions some of the side-quest people have with them, but I can easily spoil myself with videos from youtube.
  9. Happy Birthday you no good Cards fan. Have a great one.

    Epilogue

    I think he'll move on and not become stagnant in a company he doesn't trust and such. I could have went on and really sunk myself into the Job-stuff, but I think most of the romance had already went full circle, it was definitely moving faster. So I was afraid that it would just be boring to get to the same ending. Anyway! Thanks for reading and liking the story.

    Epilogue

    I thought more of the family history needed to be cleared up, so that the "drama" could make a bit more sense. I also knew I wanted for Jason to have a happy ending, so think positive - I think he's found it.

    Epilogue

    Early afternoon light brightened the small living room. I was bent over a stack of papers, the cat hovering in my lap. At first Sadie was pretty jealous of the little furball, but her tennis ball kept her easily distracted. Stretching I rolled my head around loosening the tension in my neck jumping when a smaller, softer hand than I was used to slid across the small coffee table and grabbed hold of mine. “Enough working,” Amelia said squeezing my hand, “I want to see more pictures.” “I’d
  14. Whyyyy,,, just whyyyy did you post this? lol..
  15. Lumber-sexual isn't just a gay trend though it is a direct contrast to the ever popular Metro-Sexual or men that are too clean cut and "perfectly sculpted." It isn't a way for gay men to "hide behind their beards" in hopes of not having to confront their obvious homosexuality.
  16. Happy Birthday!

    Chapter 12

    They are both a bit well practiced in it, they have been doing that their entire marriage... sadly. The Father, to be barely there - I would have liked to have him fleshed out more, but I knew if I did that, I would turn this story into a more sordid thing than it already was and maybe.. dragged it along. But yes, safe to say they are good at what they do, the manipulating and getting what they want from people - Jason and to a point Jason's Grandmother and Grandfather had been the first defectors that started this entire mess. I hope you enjoyed the story - it is different from what I usually end up with, at least with the characters. Only the Epilogue is left! I hope to have it out sometime next week. I hope it sheds more light on their family dynamics that I didn't touch on in the story.. and wraps everything up nicely.

    Chapter 12

    Yep, both of them were guilty.. Terrible to try to out maneuver one another. In a way Jason had buried himself into college and life that he didn't want to see all that.. but it is good that he did and was able to leave. Only the Epilogue is left, I hope to shed more light on that entire situation... I'm glad you kept reading through all the twists and turns this story took, not all of them made complete sense. But human nature doesn't either.. lol.

    Chapter 11

    Yes, I couldn't imagine splitting up my twins.. no no. They won't even sleep in different rooms. When one gets hurt the other one cries.. it's just adorable.. aside from when they were younger and you were trying to feed two babies and the husband was snoring.. lol. All that aside, it may come easily for them. They deserve that. As far as Amelia's hearing goes, I wanted her to be just partially deaf - to add to the pile of bullshit their parents put them through.. I guess it may not have read like that.. but that's okay as well.

    Chapter 12

    On the ride back home my heart raced. I felt my hands clam up and my breathing refused to go deep inside my lungs. I knew that I was close to another panic attack, I had so many in my waking mornings to know what they felt like. The envelope was in my lap, ready to approach Mom as soon as I stepped out of the truck. When we drove through the gates I groaned after we cleared the decorative trees barely holding on to the last of their blooms. There was a tent set up in the front lawn and cars
  21. The true south is beautiful. Where family is first, generosity and humbleness is in most everyone. This woman, although from Kentucky and has a lot of idiots supporting her, does not represent me and my south. She doesn't represent the south for a lot of us that live in these regions. Going beyond that, she doesn't even represent true Christians as I am a Christian as well. I wish we could kick her out of both groups as she is running the south and what it takes to be a real christian into the dirt. Let's get back to sweet tea and SEC football soon and this woman's grandstanding will be forgotten.
  22. The Governor cannot be re-elected though, he is at the end of his eligibility. So he 'could' if he wanted to. Although, it may end badly for the democrat that is running to replace him, although I plan on voting for him over the republican, who I distrust a ton more. The Democrat running dodged the gay marriage issue when he was Attorney General though, said he would leave it to the higher courts in Kentucky... and they of course stalled out until SCOTUS got involved. The Gov. has already told them to start issuing marriage licenses though, you can't make someone do anything they just won't do... we'll see if she folds when they start fining her.
  23. Yes.. to be stubborn to the point of idiocy warrants some sort of award. I dislike that she is getting so much praise. Those people can also have honorable mention. They refuse to see that her 3 divorces were a sin - that she somehow asked for forgiveness for those and found God within the fourth marriage. Which, fine - I can deal with that. What I don't understand is how they seem to forget all the passages of love and acceptance and the, "Thou shall not judge," command - as to disobey any of those are sins as well. Kentucky.. I love the place despite most of the people that call it home. If I can somehow ship them up north I would.

    Chapter 11

    Thanks! I believe that maybe his mother wants him angry, just more so at his father. But! We shall see what else they both may have planned, they can't be done just yet. Thanks for reviewing, I do hope you like the last chapter and the epilogue! I hope to have them posted sometime soon.

    Chapter 11

    Yeah, a bit of a whole in her plan. To me I think she is banking on having some sort of relationship with Jason, or at least she thinks she does... and can at least convince him that his father is somehow worse. Anyway, I don't want to say too much since the next chapter + epilogue will be the last bits to this story. I hope you like the ending! Thanks for the review!
