[Rob Skitter] I was pretty sure that Diane hadn’t told him that Chris was gay, and I was looking forward to his reaction when he learnt. If I was lucky, I’d be able to get him seated between Chris and Paul before he found out. I know it’s petty, but since most of my planned fun had already been taken out by him tagging along, I was determined to extract as much enjoyment out as I could. If that meant making him the butt of a few jokes, then so be it. Please use the BACK button to return to th

[Chris Everington] Soon enough, Rob turned off the main road and I started the job of navigating him to where Paul was working. It was unfortunate that Paul couldn’t knock off work early, but there isn’t a lot of construction work available in winter, so he has to grab what he can. I’ve already packed his gear in the back the car, so all he’s got with him is a change of clothes for the trip. Driving into the new housing estate, my heart leapt at the sight of my man standing by the side of the

[Chris Everington] He turned to look out the window. Was that because he was just shy? Not being particularly shy myself, I’ve always felt it my job to get the shy guys involved in the conversation. It was too easy for extroverts like Rob and me to dominate the talk. When I asked him what he did for a living, he turned back to me with that killer smile of his. I’m glad that Paul doesn’t get jealous otherwise he’ll be trying to keep between me and Greg all weekend. Please use the BACK button t

[Rob Skitter] I loved her immensely, but I still felt a surge of resentment at the joy with which Diane addressed the brat. I sighed, as I considered that she was a lot closer to her family than I was with anyone in mine. I’d been largely independent and self-reliant since I was a young boy. Growing up in a largish family taught me that you had to put yourself forward if you were going to get anywhere. It certainly didn’t teach me to love my brothers and sisters. A flash of anger went through

[Diane Rider] I have a lot of hope for this weekend. Beside another weekend skiing – the sport my darling boyfriend had introduced me to, I have secret hopes for my little brother. Rob keeps it well hidden, but I know he’s upset that I’d invited Greg to join us for this trip. However, once I had learnt that Chris and his boyfriend Paul were going to be joining us, it was an opportunity too good to miss. I have my suspicions that my brother is gay. I had found a number of files on the subject

[Chris Everington] I was sitting in the back seat of Rob’s car when we turned into a quiet suburban street. Up ahead I could a good looking youngster standing by the side of the road with a large sports bag at his feet. A bit too young for me, and Paul would cut off my balls if I tried anyway, but I could tell he was going to be a heartbreaker for a lot of girls, and the occasional guy. As we pulled up in front of the young man, I could see the family similarity between him and his sister, Di

[Rob Skitter] As I turned into the street where Greg lives with Diane’s parents, I resisted the temptation to keep driving on. I’ve been seething ever since Di said that she had invited her kid brother along on this trip. I had it all planned out – Diane and I would get the room with the double bed, and Chris and Paul could have the other room to themselves. Now we’re going to have a fifth wheel tagging along, messing everything up. As well as that, I’m sure she’ll be expecting me to teach him

[Greg Rider] I don’t know why he wants to stop the story here. After all, he’s leaving me just at the start of something wonderful! At least, I hope it is. I think Graeme’s just too much of a prude to want to describe what Dan and I intend to get up to over the next few weeks, months, years... Uh, wait a second.... Do I really want the details of my sex life spread across the internet for everyone to read? Hmmmm. On second thoughts, this is an excellent place to finish. Well done, Graeme. P

Mama is one of favourite characters. The loving grandmother who cares for everyone -

Graeme commented on Graeme's story chapter in Part IV - The Heart Decides. Chapter 30
Good people usually do outnumber the bad people, at least in my experience. The big problem is usually the good people aren't very vocal, or as determined as the bad people. There are exceptions, of course.... -

That's certainly one of the happiest chapters I've written. It took a long build up, but something is finally happening -
“I think the council is doing the right thing. The Tree is dangerous and it should go,” Felicity Neilson said in a strident voice, glaring at the people up on the stage. “But what about The Heart? When they get married, The Tree will be fixed, won’t it?” someone asked from the middle of the crowd. The public meeting that Mama Saviloni had organised for the Wednesday night had been going for thirty minutes. Felicity Neilson had been a constant negative voice. Ryan Klenston was chairing the meet

Rhys stared at the guy standing near the lecture room entrance. He suspected that Cameron Mulholland was waiting for him. His guess was confirmed when Cameron started moving in his direction. “Oh, fuck,” Rhys whispered to himself. He had learnt more about Cameron from Brendan after Cameron left the party. Brendan had been apologetic, and had passed on some information that he’d asked Rhys not to share. One key piece was that Cameron wasn’t out to anyone else. Before the party, Brendan had been

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed the party -
Mama Saviloni stepped forward. “I’m so glad you could make it, Alisha. I know it was at short notice, but things are happening faster than I had anticipated.” “That’s okay, Mama. I hope you don’t mind that I’ve invited Kirstie Aster to join us.” Mama raised her eyebrows, but she didn’t question Alisha’s judgement. Mama knew that Kirstie’s mother had been involved with Aunt Cynthia’s becoming the last Heart, and Alisha hoped that that would satisfy Mama. “No, no problems. I didn’t want tonight

Thank you! The story will finish posting the first week of January, so there's not much longer to go. -

Dave's in the story because I hate stereotyping. Sadly, Dave's a very believable character because there are lots of people in the world like him. Keith's smart. He knows how things work and, as a successful businessman, he knows how to work around the rules without breaking them. He's not the only one -
Everyone was chatting when they heard a ringtone. “It’s mine,” Shane said as he pulled out his mobile and flipped open the cover. He stood up, smiling. “Hi, Karen.” Rhys smiled as he watched Shane manoeuvre his way through the restaurant so he could speak in semi-privacy outside. He had been shocked when he found out that Shane and Karen were trying to start a relationship, but then he realised that it made a weird sort of sense. Neither of them was the average sort of person, and both were ve

Very true. There is always someone who is anti for any cause. -
“Okay, we’re now in Dubbo. What’s going on?” Bobby asked. Alex threw Bobby a grin before returning his attention to the road. “Not just yet. It’s Jamie’s idea, so I think he should explain things.” “You said I’d find out when we got to Dubbo. Now you’re saying I still have to wait? Come on, just tell me.” Chuckling, Alex shook his head. “It won’t be long. We’ll just pick up the guys and then we’ll go celebrate your birthday.” “I’m beginning to think I made a huge mistake agreeing to this,” B

Part III - The Heart Revealed. Chapter 25
Graeme commented on Graeme's story chapter in Part III - The Heart Revealed. Chapter 25
That chapter was written in 2007, about six months before Codey passed away. I still miss him. I haven't been making any changes -- this is a copy of the original story. -

I also hope it's a fitting memorial to Codey, too. That poem was one of the last things he wrote before he died -
Rhys was seated at the kitchen table, his forehead wrinkled as he worried over the job in front of him. His housemates had left him the responsibility of organising the food for the housewarming party, and he was making a list in an effort to avoid going over budget. He was considering the various options for hot food, while keeping in mind the small oven they would have to work with, when his phone rang. He answered it without looking. “Hi.” Rhys gave only part of his attention to the phone w
