Mine too! I watched it for the first time recently and it was awesome! Jeff did, indeed frisk the bear. As the presents were coming into the house he couldn't be too careful about what someone might have planted in there.

I hope you don't get sick I hate roller coasters. I've only ever been on little ones and they were bad enough. No way will I ever go on a big one. I'm not afraid of heights but I hate giving up control and I hate that feeling in your stomach when you come down. Nope, not for me

Very astute. Nothing is off the table at the moment

Oh the party will be eventful, you can be sure of that. As to the motivation of whoever's behind the threats? Well, it's complicated and that's all I'm going to say
-
Oh you can be sure Drew is in it for the long run. You're very welcome. It's my pleasure
-
Hehe. I can just imagine your hair turning white as you wait patiently :D. Sorry. I'm a pretty stubborn person and I was going to win NaNo if it killed me I hope it was worth the wait

Jeff's influence has been all good so far. He's a good man and being a father he has more of an idea how to handle young people than Drew. On the other hand he is a father figure and although the boys need that, they need a friend more. As for Drew's "professionalism", that's going to get him into a whole heap of trouble.

It is like the sword of Damocles. It can't be easy to know that someone out there wants to hurt them and to never know when they are going to strike. No wonder they want to keep their heads down.

Left alone in the kitchen with Amara, Drew felt suddenly awkward. Something had subtly changed and until he’d had time to process it and work out what to dom the last thing he wanted was to spend time alone with Amara. “Why did you pretend to be Aria,” he asked, then kicked himself. That was a fault with him. Nerves in the battlefield he could handle. In fact, he welcomed the adrenaline to give him an edge. Nerves in his personal life, however, tended to destroy his filters and he had a tend

Jeff slotted into their crazy little group far quicker and more smoothly than Drew would have though. His solid presence not only steadied the boys, but Drew, too. Oh, there were tears and tantrums, demands, threats of firing and some intense shouting matches, none of which seemed to affect Jeff in the slightest. However, Drew noticed a marked change as the days went on. The twins’ frenetic energy calmed, and they were able to focus more clearly. Amara was serious about learning to defen

Haha. Yes I guess there will be

Gosh you guys are so twisted and bloodthirsty. I love it!!
-
Thank you. Jeff is a good guy. He doesn't pull any punches with anyone, even Drew. Things sure get interesting.
-
Ben will definitely get up close and personal - eventually. Those pigs just have to be patient. As for Mamma Bear, well you'll have to keep reading to find out what happens to her.
-
It's no coincidence. Aria and Amara will be more settled and cared for now than they have ever been. But what's that they say about the calm before the storm?
-
Sadly not, no. She's a terrible person. Jeff is a good, solid man, no nonsense but with a heart. He is definitely a steadying influence on everyone.
-
Now what on earth would make you think that
-
Things are definitely getting interesting in more ways than one. You're very welcome
-
Thank you Finally someone we don't want to feed to the pigs
-
A match made in heaven. It's a huge relief for Drew too, to have Jeff there. On the other hand, Jeff is very observant and he will no doubt pick up on things Drew would rather he didn't.
-
I think you're right. Jeff is a good guy

Drew sat and listened while Alicia had what sounded like a difficult conversation with Mrs Graice. He wondered briefly why she didn’t call Mr Graice but it was only briefly. Henley Graice was, apparently, as scared of his wife as everyone else was. Some action hero! Finally, Alicia put the telephone down. She was pale and looked exhausted. “That didn’t go well,” Drew commented, giving Alicia the courtesy of phrasing it as a comment not a question. “You know, sometimes I wonder what h

You make a good point. Keep a meat tenderizer handy you're going to need it

Oh I see. Yes I get what you're saying. I think having Amara 's wrist was more of a knee jerk reaction, impulsive almost. To have got up and walked around the table would require premeditated intent. As Amara was shaking and clearly upset I think at this point Drew would have realization and more would be to much. Of course if his anger hadn't got the better of him he should have asked if there were more and it is kind of unprofessional that he didn't but part of the point is that professionalism is slipping and is getting very personal

I don't understand why the quote is inconsistent with what I said. Drew and Amara were sitting facing each other across the kitchen table. Drew leaned over and caught Amara 's wrist. He would have been able to reach far enough across to push the sleeve up a little but not all the way. Amara had bruises on his wrists and upper arms but his arms from wrist to shoulder were not bruised so the only bruises Drew would have been able to see without walking around the table to push Amara's sleeves up further would have been those on his wrists. Whether or not he should have liked for more is a different point.
