    Do you think for a minute, droughtquake, that Casey would be even slightly interested in someone who wasn't fond of Lane?

    Thanks, Everyone. I'll just respond once about Casey and Shade. They may have been dancing around, but wait until the tango begins! I'm glad everyone is supportive of their relationship.
  3. Coach Wentworth and I joked about me playing baseball. He still thought I was athletic, but I told him I usually fall asleep watching sports on ESPN. As we drove, I asked him, “What is wrong with Curtis?” He gave me a puzzled look and asked, “What do you mean?” “I don’t know,” I replied. “It’s like he’s hated me since I came here.” Coach thought a minute and then said, “I’m not sure he hates you as much as he’s threatened by you.” “Threatened by me?” “You see, Casey,” he replied. “Curtis is

    I hope that pedestal isn't too high, Jaysalmn. I get vertigo easily. haha. Also, sometimes love is at first sight. Other times it takes a two by four. Thanks. Ron

    Hi droughtquake. Things can go on like this if everyone looks the other way as long as the team is winning. Maybe not as much at the high school level, but look at how many college programs have created easy (and in some cases nonexistent) classes just for their athletes. Some are now under investigation for academic fraud. Ron

    Puppilull, I think Coach Wentworth is more concerned with being their friend, than being respected as a teacher. Young teachers often make that mistake. Ron

    I think, Timothy, that all of us have sat in a class with a wonderful, caring teacher or professor who just couldn't master the art of teaching. Ron
  9. Karen was disappointed when Lane and I didn’t eat much of the meat loaf she had prepared for dinner. However, she found it amusing when Lane told her about the apple pie and ice cream he had devoured at the diner. “Mrs. Shade sounds like a wonderful mother,” she said after Lane finished telling her how good the pie was. “She’s not as good as you, Mommy,” replied Lane. He then gave her an impish grin and added, “But she may be if you don’t give me apple pie and ice cream.” Karen laughed and sa

    He's entitled, droughtquake, from his viewpoint. Ron

    It is sad, Puppilull. Bobby is only a fictional character. I don't even want to think how many real Bobbys there are. Ron

    Chapter 7

    My father was standing to the side of Mrs. Edwards’s desk. He was reading a paper that he was holding in his hand. Mrs. Edwards rushed over and snatched the paper and placed it back inside a folder. “You shouldn’t be reading this,” she admonished him. He glared at me and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me you were doing poorly in chemistry?” I hung my head and responded timidly, “I don’t know.” I may have appeared embarrassed outwardly, but inside I was feeling subdued rage. I was angry that my f

    Thanks, Skinnydragon. Growing up in a poor family, I think that I too would have been intimidated by a handsome and rich boy like Casey. Too bad I didn't get the chance. LOL. Ron

    All Lane needed, droughtquake, was a little water of love to make him grow. Ron

    Ummm. You are talking about Curtis, a Neanderthal. Not sure he would even know what coexist is. Ron

    Haha, Jaysalmn. Did you just create a hashtag for OST? I'm glad you're enjoying the story so much.
  22. Lane and I rode in my father’s car. Karen rode with Rodney and Curtis. I had an idea she wasn’t finished reading Curtis the riot act. Lane jumped into the front seat, but my father politely asked him to sit in the backseat so I could sit in the front. Surprisingly, Lane didn’t object. My father attempted to engage in small talk with me. He seemed to steer clear of the problems I was facing, and instead, talked about my classes, in particular, my drama class. “This may just be a new beginning f

    Hi Stephen. Curious why Shade doesn't fit the tone of the story. Ron

    Thanks, jaysalmn. I never got tired of writing about Lane. I wish everyone in the world was like him. It would certainly be a better place. Ron
