I know i commented on this once but I don’t see it here so I’ll repost what I remember. yes this exactly. I think Brian is Jesse’s. My question is who is the mother? Where is she? It’s odd that have moved so much.More than you’d expect for just Monica’s failed relationships. It’s like they’re running. It’s also odd that Jesse says Brian comes with him like he’d expect not to have any issues doing that from his mother. I like Ben. His praise is exactly what Shaun needs. Same with Miss Stevens. What scares me is Shaun’s cutting and desire to cut Jesse. That kid needs some serious therapy.

First off yes Shaun is right. Jesse is an idiot.. an idiot in love. You don’t make the wise. Speaking of idiots, let’s talk about Monica. Dafuq?! She’s a fucking nurse. She should know better than to let someone with an immediate concussion not to let the drift off to sleep.yes on, I agree Jesse didn’t get his ass beat too badly but X-rays should have been done especially on the ribs and maybe a CT Scan of his head to check for internal bleeds. 5 against 1 ..sigh. Jesse got extremely lucky. Thirdly, Shaun taking the rifle to get vengeance was a definite escalation. That could’ve also gone extremely south. IF the parents press charges that’s a felony. Rant over. The lovemaking however is great. I do love that sensual approaches Shaun takes with Jesse. I do not like the coach. He fucking knows who was there. I’m hoping Miss Stevens’s “short term memory loss” comes back to her after a few hrs of time and turns Kenny and Eric in. The Principle is a joke. A tight ship? Whatever.

We can only hope at this point the brakes hold up and then Colt gets the nerve to talk to someone

As well as the clothes that had brake fluid on theme

I mentioned this possibility last chapter. I feel for Colt. He’s in a nearly impossible position. Noah’s logic that the Sheriff can’t and won’t do anything is obviously flawed. Colt needs to realize that if he truly loves Noah as much as we know he does, he speaks up anyway and does not go through with the plan. Right now he hasn’t considered that George might take Noah with him. The sheriff who is the only one with the authority to stop George. Noah doesn’t understand that every complaint of child sexual abuse must be investigated immediately. Sure, the chance that George takes Noah with him and they catch him at the lake in the act IS a possibility, but does anyone know where the cabin is besides George? We don’t know. Colt needs to risk losing Noah for not going through the plan. There is also nothing indicating that Noah has thought it either. I suppose it is possible that Noah may have a backup plan and take matters into his own hands and defend himself in the house or cabin against George. He may not feel he will succeed against George if he does try to defend himself.

As far as the chapter goes, there’s a lot to take away. Shaun has …albeit somewhat unwillingly, seemed more accepting of Jesse’s advances. Or I should say, his walls of resistance keep crumbling. It’s but altogether it’s nice to see at least some support from Shaun’s grandfather and at least one bandmate, even if the other members don’t.

I can’t say I’m too comfortable with Shaun’s fantasy of hurting Jesse physically during their trysts but I know it’s just not my thing. I will continue reading unless it gets worse.

What if George forced Noah to go with him? Brett is going to piece something together yet. I don’t know if it is going to matter much in 8 days. I guess a lot can still happen in that time. It seemed anyway that either Brett acted like he didn’t know much about Noah’s relationship with George but now I’m wondering why his father is not a fan of George

I don’t trust Kyle at all. I think he’s a manipulative little bastard. For that matter I’m having a difficult time trusting Shaun. He’s too emotionally driven right now

Noah makes me very uncomfortable at this point. I feel he’s slipping mentally. Not that I blame him but right now, he’s motivated, coldly calculating & desperate. That makes him dangerous. What happens if Colt suddenly gets a backbone and says no and thinks he should inform someone of what George has been doing? Will Noah see Colt as a threat to his plan and hurt him too?

I kept waiting for Shaun to collapse and pass out up until that kiss and total freak Jesse out.

Oh thank you..

You’re spot on.

Sigh. I really don’t know how I feel about this chapter. I can relate to Noah except my abuser was an older student who was a narcissist. I never got revenge so to speak. I never got closure. I just saw him out a bullet through his temple from 15 feet away. He thought I was going to go to the authorities. I wouldn’t have. I just wanted out. But when you’re 13 and he’s 16…nobody makes great decisions right? Well I sure didn’t. Lots and lots of therapy years later and learning how to accept things I cannot control and how to focus on what I can and there are times my therapist and I revisit some of those exercises still even more years later with different challenges. Anyway, sorry about the side rant. This isn’t about me. I can see where Noah is so hyper focused on escaping George, he doesn’t see the safest and smartest way out IS going to the authorities. He’s angry. He wants George to pay. He’s motivated too. Colt is getting cold feet and rightly so. For Noah’s sake and his, he needs to say something yesterday. Amy, is beginning to win me over. Slowly. Perhaps Colt can talk to her as a sounding board.

My apologies.

I’m guessing totally

Shaun’s defenses are weakening quickly. The entertaining thing for me is, Shaun has yet to really realize it. It was mentioned above that perhaps Jesse is moving rather quickly and a bit too touchy feely so soon. I tend to agree but it might also be just his personality. So far the laying of girls seems more boasting to prop themselves up more than actual conquests even though both boys have had sex with girls. It seems to me anyway that those experiences are whatever vs awesome. Let’s hope that scrub job helps with that cut that’s infected. I’d hate to see it put him in the hospital. Then Shaun would really see how much Jesse cares for him and for that matter, so would Jesse.

Time will tell. Of course if he’s writing this as he goes I’m probably ruining everything and he’s having to rewrite 😂😂😂😂

Noah’s or Brett’s? You make great points that Brett knew about the treehouse, even way before Colt came into the picture. How? Why? Has Brett ever been over to Noah’s? Why? Goes back to my original theory. Brett has a lot of hatred towards Noah and we don’t know why. He covers it in bullying. There’s more to THAT story.The further this goes on the more I’m leaning that angle. Of course I could be totally over analyzing and there’s nothing at all but nobody does things like this for no reason or just because. Maybe Brett is in the closet and Noah turned him down. Maybe Noah hit on Brett and it disgusted Brett. But something happened.

I can see both points. I don’t know though. Maybe he is just and entitled kid who’s daddy is sheriff and can get a way with a lot or maybe there’s more to his story yet and this is an act. A defense mechanism maybe. Maybe it’s nothing but him just being an asshole

Can we really fault Brett though for being an asshole towards Noah and Colt? I say this because think about. Noah told Colt that Brett threatened he’d burn down his treehouse if he narced on him again. Nobody else knew about that. Then it happened and his truck wrecked and he nearly died from it. Surely he knows how well kept his truck was before that. To me, it isn’t a reach to put two and two together and come up with motive. I’m not agreeing bc with his behavior so much as I am saying I understand why.

I was afraid this would happen. Kudos to Colt for resisting. I get the feeling Brett isn’t going to let up his accusations at school. Just wait until his father hears it. Also, this further fortifies my suspicions with Brett having similar history with Noah. Also, I get the feeling Noah was secretly crushing on Tyler before Colt came to town. His interest in what Tyler said about Noah being gay was notable. I hope Noah can sneak back home without being caught.something tells me this animosity between Brett and Colt is only going to grow and explode quickly. Kudos for Colt for not being afraid to be out at the party. I also love how the rest of Rylee’s friends accepted Noah. That is heartwarming.

There’s a lot to unpack in this chapter. Let’s start with the chemistry lab “explosion”.the move was borderline desperate on Jesse’s part but it worked I guess. Jesse obviously had wants to win favor with Shaun and is it also backfires by making him even more popular. Speaking of Shaun, that dude has some serious psychotic tendencies that should be glaring red flags to Jesse but instead they make him even more interested. They had some interesting conversation on the way home walking back from school. It doesn’t surprise me Shaun likes to shoot things. Weapons talk etc. Then Jesse gets home and has this bdsm erotic dream involving Shaun and I think he was talking in his sleep because Sam gave him a look. That was also Shaun in the shadows. Had to be. Gives this some creepy country Texas chainsaw massacre vibe and it didn’t phase Jesse at all. Kyle appears to have the hots for Jesse to and this dude might make Shaun more jealous and want act on his violent impulses.

Well that was an eye opener. Is it the shunning from the rest of the students that feed Shaun’s hate and self mutilation? He does seem the inwardly crave attention but doesn’t know what to do with it so I guess he hates it and himself for it. The grandparents definitely play it fast and loose with him for the most part. The kid is intense.
