If I wanted to be with him? In this very moment, it was questionable. I wanted to tell Aaron to go fuck himself, and then go make sure Luke was okay; but, I also wanted to beg him not to do this. I guess the bottom line was, I liked Aaron. I wanted to get to know him. I wanted to see where this new relationship was leading--and I wanted him to be able to drive me home every once in a while. Because as much as I hated it at the moment, he had a point. Luke already knew about us, and I couldn’t

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. I couldn’t get in the pool. Not when I could risk running into Eddie, and not after he’d pointed out that hickey. But, that’s what I wanted to do. I wanted to sink right to the bottom, where it was safe, with all that water over me. I wanted to take back everything from the moment I’d met Aaron, and then I wanted to randomly meet him on t

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. My hands were torn up and dry, I was exhausted, but the patio looked nice. I guess. There was much more to putting it together than I thought there would be, but Tom seemed pleased with the end product. No one stuck around to see if his wife would be, too. Except Seth, I noticed. He didn’t leave when everyone else did. This made Dave para

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. I must have been asleep again two minutes after Eddie left my room. He didn’t wake me when he came back with food, either, because the next time I woke up it was because there was something cold being pressed against my face. Before I even opened my eyes I knew that it had to have been the middle of the day, the way that my room was brigh

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated . My hand hurt. There was no getting around it. But, under the circumstances it was to be expected, the way that Eddie was repeatedly hurling the baseball, and Luke was repeatedly swinging the bat and missing the baseball, leaving me to catch it with a glove that wasn’t broken in because we’d bought everything we were using that very mo

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. I stared at the house with the rock garden. I didn’t like this house. I didn’t like the blue truck parked outside of this house. I didn’t like the guy, who lived in this house, and drove that stupid blue truck. "What?" Aaron was clueless, even if he shouldn’t have been. He was also looking at me like I was crazy again. I swear,

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. "You’re serious?" Aaron was looking at me as if I’d just asked him to shave his legs. "Why not?" I replied, before ducking under the water for a moment and then surfacing again. "You don’t have to worry about Luke or anyone being here right now. Eddie’s coming back in a few hours, but if you want to hang out until then--I mean, unless

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. A warm breeze, a watch-worthy sunset, the sound of potential friends chatting in the distance, and my hand sweating profusely against Aaron Keslin’s. I was having all sorts of issues. The last time I checked, I hadn’t decided what I wanted to do about Aaron. I liked him, sure, but maybe that fact wouldn’t have been so difficult to

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated . I’m not sure how to explain the day after I went to Aaron’s house. Depressing would be an appropriate word, I guess. First, I didn’t hear from Aaron. Not even a phone call. Which meant that while everyone else was at work, I was home stressing about it, and it wasn’t fun, either. It was strange to think that he’d been able to push pr

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. Also, a thank you to ‘Pecman,’ whose advice came in handy during the writing of this chapter. Eddie was sitting on the floor in the doorway to my room. He’d ended up there about halfway through reading my mom’s letter, and hadn’t moved since. When he sank to the floor, it had seemed unfortunate that there wasn’t a chair underneath him, b

The day I told my mom that I was gay, was probably one of the hardest in my life. I ran every scenario I could think of in my head. I imagined my mom... disappointed in me. I also imagined that she might be angry with me, even if it was something that I couldn’t change about myself. I imagined that she’d look at me and see something... disgusting, see someone who wasn’t her son. Of course, I really shouldn’t have worried with my mom, and she proved that to me. After she died, the fact that I’

The ride kept spinning, disorienting everything with the flashing lights... I was terrified that someone would see us because of those lights, put it was difficult to concentrate on anything other than Aaron’s tongue in my mouth and our foreheads knocking together with the jolting of the boat. But the kiss... maybe it wasn’t the greatest, but what kiss is when you’re being jerked around and drowned by an amusement park ride? It was still a kiss. And I kissed him back... at least, as best as I

A/N: Thank you to Jim the editor for volunteering his time to sort through all of my mistakes to make this chapter more readable (better) it is appreciated. I wondered if Grandma Alice would let me move back in with her now that I’d made a complete mess of things. I figured that she’d have to. She owed it to me. After all, this was all her fault. Yep, that’s right. It made perfect sense to pass all blame to her. After all, she wasn’t there to defend herself, and even if she was, I was pretty

"Oh, look at that," Dave mumbled, in a voice not much louder than a whisper. "It’s just not fair. I mean, just look at that." I was looking; I just wasn’t as interested in it. I was actually more interested in the sunset, which had colored the sky various oranges and reds. We probably had a good hour left before it was completely dark, and that was fine with me, considering we were sitting in the middle of the park, in the grass, and watching the varying activities around us. Luke and I ha

Ouch! Anyone with common sense would have gone back inside. Apparently, I didn’t have any. I could hear Eddie and Jase calling me, but I couldn’t go back. I just needed to think. Too bad I couldn’t have been thinking with my shoes on. The ground wasn’t exactly fun to walk on as I distanced myself from the house, and I was beginning to really feel the pain in my foot where I’d stepped on the glass. It wasn’t helping that practically every time I took a step I was stepping on something poky or

“Where do you want this one?” Luke asked from my bedroom door, carrying another box. My things had arrived, and it seemed like Grandma Alice had packed the entire house. There were boxes stacked all over my room, and I had already decided that I wasn’t going to unpack it all because packing it back up later would be a pain in the ass. “Anywhere.” I waved, as I finished unloading another box of clothes into my dresser. Luke placed the box on a stack of a few others before wiping his brow an

Something about eating hamburgers around a former dinner table is just wrong. And, it’s not fun when you’re surrounded by three guys you don’t even know, all family members you didn’t know existed until recently. It didn’t help matters that all three of them were watching me, trying not to be so obvious about it. I hated it when people watched me eat. Not that they were watching me eat. They were just watching me. I felt sort of like an intruder. It was quiet and awkward at the table and I ha

Arizona. Ari-fri-kin-zona. Do you know how hot it is in Arizona? In the summer? Well, if you don’t, it’s pretty damn hot, and that’s on a good day. And I had to live there. Not just for a summer either. No. I was moving there. I think we’ve properly established that I wasn’t thrilled with the idea. Why? Well, the why I was so disgruntled had little to do with the heat and more to do with everything else. Starting with my dad. Maybe I should explain. See, my father (and I use the term loosely)

I buried my head under the pillow on by bed, wishing that it would do a better job of drowning out the sound of Eddie’s voice. I was having one of the worst days of my life, and the last thing I wanted to do was have a rational conversation with a man who thought he could become a father in less than twenty four hours. “Look, I know you’re having a hard time here, Rory. But we made a deal.” Eddie insisted. I felt the bed dip as he sat down. “You agreed to get to know me this summer, and if al

After his mother’s death, sixteen-year-old Rory is sent to Arizona to live with the father he’s never known. Angry, grieving, and completely out of place, he expects nothing from the desert except heat and disappointment. Instead, he finds family, truth, and the possibility of first love. But learning to belong means facing the past—and risking his heart.

A deep breath was in order. I took one as I tried to work up the nerve to look Luis in the eyes. If only I wasn’t so intimidated by him. But that was the best way I knew how to describe it. He honestly scared the shit out of me. I ended up holding that breath I took. Forgot how to let it out for a minute there and ended up coughing. I felt like whatever friendship I’d developed with him was still fragile. I didn’t want to break what was there. It hurt to think that I already had, the mome

There was a time when things were good. When I’d happily gone home with Nick for the first time I’d looked through his pictures as he leaned over my shoulder with stories that revolved around him. I’d liked it that way. Anything to do with him. We’d come across one where he was standing in front of elephants at the zoo, a guy with sandy hair and a broad mouth at his side. Nick had grown unexpectedly quiet and I’d ended up asking who the guy was. “It’s no one,” he’d told me before he turned th

I looked away from Luis. I had to, because in that moment I hated him. I couldn’t describe the betrayal I felt as I dropped my backpack and lifted Nick up off the ground. The responsibility I felt for all of this. “He’s crazy!” Nick screamed, his eyes confused and maybe a little crazed as they fell on Luis and he held his hand beneath his bleeding nose. “Are you okay?” I demanded, even knowing how stupid that question sounded. Still, I felt better when Nick gave me a short nod. The voll

When in doubt, when panicked, I’ve noticed that people tend to assume things before they’ve really had the chance to mull a situation over. I’m not to be excluded from this group. Because Logan had no reason to be at our school that I was willing to consider, I decided that he thought it was time to talk again. That didn’t explain why he looked horrified when he saw me, but perhaps he was only mirroring what he saw on my own face. Words seemed to spill out of my mouth as soon as I knew he

I made it down the hall from my room to Luis’s, feeling somewhat rushed as I pushed his door open. “Luis, have you seen a black CD case? It’s Lee’s and she’s stopping by to....oh, fuck me.” I turned away quickly as soon as I laid eyes on the rather aggressive cornsnake in his hands when it violently twisted its body to mark its displeasure and punctured his arm for good measure. There was blood. There had been blood since he’d found the thing in the backyard and decided it was time for anothe
