  1. Practice ended, and I looked for Craig after I showered, but he was nowhere to be found. I wanted to ask him what he said to Ian. I guess it will have to wait until tomorrow. Being a senior, Craig didn’t share any classes with me; lunch either. Tuesday Practice started and no Craig Mathis, and no Ian Garlington either. Craig finally showed up, twenty minutes late. “Sorry I’m late coach.” “Not too late to run laps. You see Garlington on your mini-vacation?” “Yes. I did. I
  2. No spoilers, but it gets worse.
  3. Thanks for reading. I don’t expect to have 42 chapters here 😄
  4. And each other.
  5. Maybe I’ll bring the other two together for a knock down, drag out, drag queen donnybrook.
  6. Small children, small problems. big children, big problems.
  7. The back of MY mind is a dark and scary place.
  8. Same to you.
  9. Peppermint? Let’s see who gets it.
  10. After finishing up with Dad and Dominic, I called Jackson and asked if he was free the next night. He was. I told him I'd drop by around seven and we needed to talk. Tuesday Zach brought a copy of his dental bill. I had all the evidence I needed to confront Jackson properly. I liked Jackson a lot, so it was difficult to decide what to say. I decided to keep it simple. After dinner with Dad and Dom, I arrived at Jackson's a couple of minutes before seven o'clock. Jackson’s smile
  11. Thanks much.

    Chapter 14

    Another excellent chapter @Mancunian. I will be sorry to see this one end. I still have loads of catching up on your stories to do. Work, writing, and reading take up a whole lot of time. Eh, who needs sleep? Loved the music choices for the Christmas show. But I have to add my favorite version of my favorite traditional Christmas song to the thread. I'm sure you'll all enjoy it, especially those of you on the east side of the pond, since it's a fellow Brit.
  13. If you want to hear the details, you’re going to have a long wait 😄 I’ve implied as much. If you’ve never heard Michael Crawford’s version, you’ve missed out on a good one. Christmas is past, but what the heck. I sincerely doubt alcohol will enter the picture. From chapter one: Three twelve-year-olds come tearing into the back yard thirty seconds later. They must have been playing outside. They stop at the fence.
  14. Like Billy Joel sang - You may be right. And the following line holds true - I may be crazy.
  15. Friday The second Friday after school began was our first game. Most of the starting defense was on the kickoff team. We kicked off first, being the home team, we deferred to receive after halftime, so I was in right from the start. No return on the kick. Reaching the endzone near the middle of the field on the first kickoff was the best our kicker did all game. Their first play was a run to the right. Craig Mathis stopped it for a two-yard gain. I guess they figured running at Craig d
  16. Thanks. Funny was mostly the target. Sometimes I'm not as funny as I think I am. It's good to know I succeeded at least a little bit.
  17. Hmmm. An angry emoji. I'm curious. But if you'd rather not share, that's OK.
  18. Appreciate your preference for the original. I’m sure you and dr. s won’t be the only ones.
  19. Well, in the original ending, the boys weren’t really there. Basically everything from chapter two until the end was Derek’s story while he was in the psych ward. But, I’m glad you liked this one.
  20. It’s great that you made sense out of the other ending. But I’m also glad I re-did the ending.
  21. Thanks much. I definitely hit the range of reactions I was hoping for. Maybe a bit more extreme than I thought it would be.
  22. I appreciate the input. If I knew in advance that would be what I would do, I could have left hints. But very little of what I write is planned more than even one chapter ahead.
  23. Welcome. I guess this way more people are happy.
  24. Yeah, I know I didn’t have to, but I felt bad so many people were disappointed.
  25. Oh boy. And Reggie Jackson used a bat. Lots of bad Jacksons.
