Thx. Therapy got me through my worst. Now the rest just reminds me I’m still human.

@Jeff Burton damn dude you had me balled up into the fetal position teary eyed listening to this from text to speech. I have been to the point of sheer helplessness and rage in a battle of my mind like Nate was in his front yard. The tidbits of history we got from Corey moving into the district in 8th is a clue for me making me wonder how, why, he just knows what to do for Nate. I wonder why he moved. I wonder if he’s experienced loss like Nate. The fact he let him rail on him just as knew Nate needed to broke my heart he is still grieving and is losing that battle. Corey’s timing into Nate’s life is impeccable. It’s clear Corey has actual true feelings and cares for Nate and it isn’t just some physical attraction type draw. He’s an empath it seems. He’s exactly who Nate needs. I really like the support Chris and their father are giving even in the midst of their own grieving. Having been there myself, nobody has the right to tell anyone they should be over losing someone . Ever. Sometimes folks never learn how. Some simply just heal at a different pace. Anyway, as for Jess, damn! She’d make a Gunny Sgt of the Marines giggle with that threat. I know I did. I’ve just discovered your work and this is my first story and once I finish it I’m binging on the others. Kudos.

@Jeff Burton excellent start. You’ve built these characters well . You really depict the turmoil between them well. Nice long chapters too. I’m hooked.

Idk but there’s something more to him than meets the eye. I can’t quite put my finger on it yet. I’m not getting a bad vibe but there IS something…

Now I expect that this will indeed drive a wedge between friends and I half expect some of this backfire on him too.

Having been raped and have triggers from that trauma, I’m surprised he didn’t trigger into a panic attack mid coitus. I sure have a few times and it’s been YEARS since that rape. I half expect a night terror later. Alternatively, he might actually heal a bit from this emotionally. The aggression and dom isn’t a surprise that it’s a turn on . I guess this time it’s because he wanted it that he didn’t. Everyone reacts a bit differently.

Yeah the cousin possibility IS logical ..and admittedly it was my first thought too that maybe Jason had a friend over that happened to be a girl but ..idk there’s something odd with his behavior I can’t put my finger on. This is the second time he’s sort of been..idk caught so to speak.

Yes there’s definitely plenty of areas where this story could’ve used an editor. The lack of one doesn’t ruin the story however.

I reacted sadly bc well frankly, this site is fictional and it’s associated with the BL site. I get why. But all we do here is fantasy entertainment. Ok sure you might see a cutie in real life and can’t help but ogle but let’s face it, most if not all of us wish we could do our teens over and we are simply daydreaming of what might’ve been had we made better decisions and had a better support system . Oh well

I’m pan

It just sounded like you weren’t aware . Forgive me if you were.

Tragically Comicality passed away some months ago.

I knew my posting was going to hit a few of us in the feels hard. Especially a few who, like you, were there at the beginning and have had the fortune to know him on a closer level. For that I am truly very sorry. That said, a lot of my story of life involves a lot of close loss. I am unfortunately, very familiar with grief. Loss affects me so much. It’s scarred and traumatized me. Mr.M & I have corresponded and as Comsi and I about writing a fictionalized version of my story. Sigh. I’m honestly scared at the idea. Petrified actually. Anyway before I get too off into the weeds, I wanted to sends empathetic hugs to you for your grief. It sounds you were the closest to him out of all of us. I also wanted to thank you for your answer. It makes total sense. I can totally see him having that mentality. There’s a few stories that I would like to see completed but they all tie in to the GFD. Thank you for this. The cover is hot.

That would be wonderful. I’ve not read that one. I hope it isn’t a premium story.

“But the question still remains, tell me why you chose to leave us in the dark.” this line speaks to me. It voices my wonder why Comsi didn’t make sure he finish GFD before he passed. Or, at least, give someone else his vision for the end and permission to finish it. Granted, I know it would probably weaken the greatness of what his Magnum Opus Gone From Daylight is if it were finished by someone else, and yes I understand he simply may have been too weak and sick to finish, or pass on his vision..I just can’t help but wonder what might’ve been. yes I know this song was written for artists who’ve passed recently within the last few years especially Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington but that’s the beauty of music. It’s always open to personal interpretation. This is one of Myles’s new releases. It is a masterful tune.

“Shaking my head no. I didn’t want to face my family nor the police. It’s too embarrassing. How do you tell the one’s that you love that you kidnapped, abused, raped, and drugged? Just how?” unfortunately I’ve been there. Back to Jason. More later

Wow that was very confusing. I had to read it twice to understand what happened and I’m not entirely sure I did. The time jump came out of nowhere. I think I got it off the prior comments.. I think

Your first two replies make sense. I realize I wasn’t clear on the last one. I think what I was trying to say was that when I leave the browser up on my phone and return back to it later to complete the chapter, sometimes when I go to like or whatever the chapter it says there was an error. I think it’s because it’s likely been hours since I was last there and even though it refreshed, it’s like nope. Not happening. Again, all mobile browser

Oh and sometimes when I’m reading a story and come back to in and complete a chapter, it doesn’t like me when I go to like it.

Dark mode is a must for me. And mobile. Loving the of it all. I think the only two minor (very minor) gripes I have are when you’re searching through the filters and pick only 1 or 2 things to keep and leave the rest, it doesn’t do a great filtering but this might be me not using the damn option fully . The other thing I find a bit frustrating is when I go to comment off of someone else’s comment, the quote option doesn’t always behave and drop me down so I can start typing

Ok I’m not gonna like that chapter was difficult. I’m a little misty eyed. I agree Luke was right and correct to call Rory out like that and to get pissed doing so. Luke provided a much needed vantage point that Rory had not considered at least very well. Grandma Alice…what to say..sigh. Given her latest actions, showing up unannounced, dropping some unexpected life altering news of her own only creates more confusion. But I think I get it. She is doing what she should have done in the beginning and addressing , apologizing, and forcing Rory to make the decision he’s been saying he’s made but in truth has been avoiding. Sure he’s stubborn. But that’s ok. He’s looking at his situation too black and white for one. Grandma getting married I think forces his hand a bit and that’s a good thing bc he needs to make a decision and stick to it. I think he should stay and visit on break back in Nevada. His life there is not going to be the same as it was when he left. I don’t think he truly understands that. In AZ, he’s done well. He’s accepted as gay (mostly) and has much more support and respect there vs Nevada. I hope that is what he decides anyway.

This has been the best chapter yet. Kudos to Rory for finally standing up for himself against Aaron. Rory and Beth are cute together although i worry it’ll be short lived. Luke is right. I get Rory’s frustration with grandma A but maybe it’s hard for her to explain why too.

Ugh RORY!!! Smdh.. that boy ain’t right in the head

Playing mouse to Rory’s cat is both hilarious and smart for Seth as he’s not letting emotions dictate his responses which is what Rory wants. It’s clear what he’s NOT saying that Seth is the one who WAS interested in Rory but after the drama and all the prior interactions with Rory, Seth is not allowing himself Aaron’s scraps. Even if Rory as scraps are really tempting because Seth is still attracted to him. Rory is being so stubborn in his search for answers he’s blind to the truths directly in front of him. Perhaps Seth sees Luke’s attraction to Rory and thinks is not got a chance idk.

Tbh Seth’s apology seems truthful. And so does his version of events. How ironic is it…or selfish for Rory, that the one time someone is FINALLY upfront and honest with him, he totally misconstrues that for something initially and doesn’t recognize it. Boy Rory is slow on the pickup
