  1. I opened my eyes and looked at the alarm clock beside me. It was nine in the morning. I looked down on my chest, Andy’s hand was resting there. I looked at Andy and he was lying on his stomach less than an inch away from me. I softly stroked his wavy brown hair and put my head back down. There was no tapping so the storm must’ve passed through already. I put my hand on top of Andy’s and he lifted his beautiful little head. He opened his eyes and looked at me. He smiled and then kissed my chee
  2. I sat silent in Uncle Jeff’s car. The radio volume was low and the air conditioner was blaring. I leaned my head against the window, staring out at the scenery as it whipped passed us. “You’ll have your own room, you know. The guest room. You can do anything that you want with it. You can paint it, or hang up pictures or posters. Kale has certainly taken a liking to you.” I didn’t feel like answering. I loved uncle Jeff for trying but, I’ve gone through too much lately to care anymore. I j
  3. “Uncle Jeff!” “Hey, my boy Dylan. It’s so good to see you.” My uncle Jeff wrapped his arms around me in a big bear hug. “Let me get a look at you.” Did I mention that my uncle Jeff was my mom’s brother? Yeah, my uncle Jess and my dad were best friends and they married each other’s sisters. It’s kind of weird, but…whatever. “It’s been so long.” said Jeff. “I know, I’m sorry.” “I think of your dad everyday, you know.” “I do too.” I said. “So what’s this mess about your m
  4. “So, what did your grampa say?” asked Andy sitting with his fishing pole in his hand. “He said he was cool.” “He said that he was cool?” “Well, not in those exact words, but he said I could stay here with him.” “Really! So you’re gonna stay!” “Well, he said I also had the option of moving to Portland with my aunt Kat and her family. It would be awesome. I mean, I have three cousins there.” “Oh,” Andy put his head down. “So, I guess that you’ll be better off there.” “Are you

Spectacular! “I know I have some explaining to do.” said Nick. “Damn right you do. Andy was right about you the entire time.” “What? What do you mean?” “He said that when things got tough, you would go running, that you wouldn’t stand by me and he was right. As soon as my mom saw us, you were out the door faster than anyone could sat ‘In t
  6. “Are you sure that you have everything that you need?” “Yes, I’ll be fine. It’s just one day and night.” “You sure? Because I can have Ms. Roark come in and check on you every now and then.” “She’ll probably be doing that anyway. Andy will probably be here. There’s a Sci-Fi marathon on today and we were supposed to watch it.” “Okay, well, you kids don’t get too wild.” “We won’t. Now go or you’re going to be late for the bus.” I said. Grampa walked out of the door and I closed i
  7. The doctor told me that I had two bruised ribs and whoever taped them right away helped them very much. He said they would heal quickly because of it. And a few days later, I could actually walk without any pain. Good thing too because it was the Fourth of July carnival had arrived and I wasn’t about to miss out on it. “So what do you wanna do first the Spin-O-Matic or the Zipper?” I asked Andy as we walked in. “Are you sure you’re well enough to get on these rides?” he asked. “Stop wor
  8. I walked slowly around the lake looking for Nick. Then, I hard him whisper. “Hey, Dylan.” he came out and handed me the bottle. “Take a sip.” I unscrewed the top and took a sip. It burned my throat as it went down. I handed it back to him and he took a big gulp. “So, how are things going with you and grandfather? Do you guys get a long or is he like a hard ass?” asked Nick, handing me back the bottle after he took another gulp. “My grampa can be kinda hard sometimes, but he’s cool. W
  9. I parked in front of the hardware store. I wasn’t sure if I was ready for my first job, but I had to go in whether I liked it or not. I turned off the car and walked into the hardware store. “Just on time.” said Norm. “Nick is in the back sorting out the new shipment. Why don’t you go help him out and I’ll clock you in.” I walked over to the back. I heard clinking and rustling around, so I followed the sound. I saw some guy bent over towards the back of the room. “Hey, I’m Dylan.” “H
  10. “Rise and shine, Dylan. We’re going to the diner to have breakfast.” I slowly opened my eyes and looked at grampa standing over me. I sat up in bed, rubbed my eyes and got up. “I usually just have cereal in the morning.” I said, scratching my bare stomach. “Well not anymore. I always have breakfast at Lucy’s Diner and you’re gonna join me. What kind of a breakfast is cereal anyway. You need a nice nutritious breakfast. A good omelet should do you good.” “Whatever, I’ll get ready.” I
  11. I ran and I ran until I couldn’t run anymore. I hid in an old abandoned warehouse. I could hear the police running after me. I took the jewels that I had stolen and wiped my prints from them. Then, I dropped them on the floor. I ran out of the warehouse, but was immediately caught by some rent a cop security guard. “Gotcha ya little fucker.” the chubby guard said. “Let me go, rent a cop.” “Original,” he chuckled. “Let’s go.” * * * The judge let me off with a warning since it
  12. Dylan Summers is sent to live with his grandfather in Meek, Oregon (not a real town). There he makes more friends than he's ever had in his life.
  13. I woke up the next morning next to Andy. I got out of bed and started pacing the room. I was too preoccupied to sleep. I was constantly thinking of my little brother. Would I ever get to know him? Would I ever fix things with my mother? Did I even want to fix things with my mother? I heard Andy rustling in the bed. He sat up and smiled at me. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “I can’t stop thinking about that letter and, and Ethan.” Andy sleepily got up and wrapped his arms around my waist f
  14. We all sat around the table passing around bowls and platters of food to serve ourselves. Dylan’s uncle Smith carved the turkey, passing around slices of breast and then we started to eat. “Hun, this is great.” Smith commented on the food. “Thank you dear.” Carol answered. Silverware chimed against the china and chewing noises were muffled by closed mouths. Suddenly there was a light on Carol’s face that wasn’t there before. She looked to Dylan and me which made me a little nervous.
  15. Me, Andy, and his mom and sister followed Kat, Jeff, Jasper, and the kids in my dingy car as they drove in the SUV. I suddenly knew where Andy got his habit of singing along with the radio from. He mom did it almost the entire way there, though not in annoying way. Much like Andy, she did it in a quiet, discreet way. We arrived in Eugene right on schedule. It was about three hours before dinner time. The first person I saw was my aunt Carol who gave me a big aunt Carol type hug. “Carol, yo
  16. “I don’t know, Andrew. We hardly know those people.” said my mom after I brought up the Thanksgiving idea. Me, her and my Susan. “Well, I know them. They’re really nice people.” “Didn’t you tell me something about some of his family giving you two trouble?” “Well, I asked him about that and Dylan said that those people wouldn’t be there.” “I don’t know, Andrew. I’ll have to think about it.” “Come on, mom. I’ve never been to Portland and it’ll be cool to meet Dylan’s family.” said
  17. “Okay, let me get this straight.” said Jasper. “The guy cheats on you and…you just take him back just like that?” “I love him, Jasper. I couldn’t do anything else.” “You could’ve done what you said you were going to do. You could’ve not jerked around my best friend.” “Wait, what? Zero told you?” I asked, amazed. “Yeah, Zero told me because he was excited to be…with you, Dylan. How could you have sex with him and tell him that you were breaking up with Andy and just…just go around and
  18. Soon, Dylan left, but I wasn’t as depressed as I usually am when we have to part. We worked things out and I couldn’t have been happier. After he left, I went back home to start on my weekend homework, but I couldn’t concentrate. I was just so unbelievably happy that Dylan didn’t break up with and honestly, I couldn’t care less that he slept with Zero. As far as I’m concerned, we’re even. There was a knock at the front door. My mom was busy in the kitchen so I got up to answer it. It was N
  19. I just couldn’t do it. Once I saw him, I couldn’t do it. I promised Zero that I would, but I just couldn’t. There are many reasons why I couldn’t do it. 1. I love him way too much. 2. He came out and was honest with me. 3. He admitted that he was thinking about me the entire time. Which is proof that he really does love me. 4. I did slept with Zero too. Yeah, it was only after I knew Andy cheated on me, but it still happened. 5. I love him way too much. “Okay, if we’re gonna wo
  20. I woke up the morning after the Halloween party with a major headache. I turned around on my bed and ran straight into Davis. Uh-oh, what happened. I looked under the covers and…unfortunately I was naked and so was Davis. My heart started to beat faster and faster, but…I…I couldn’t breathe. I had to get out of there. I carefully got out of bed and slipped some underwear on. I tip-toed my way down the hall to Susan’s room. I walked in and carefully woke her up. “Andy, what the hell? P
  21. Halloween night, Andy and I agreed to talk at midnight because he had a party to go to. I didn’t mind since I was going to a party of my own. I got back a little early from the party, anticipating my talk with Andy. I paced my room almost an hour waiting for midnight to come. When it came, I turned on my web cam and there he was. “H-Hey Jillan.” “Jillan?” “Zorry…I’ve had a few drinks.” I laughed. “I see.” “Look, I’m beat. Can we talk tom-morrow?” I smiled. “Sure,” Andy sl
  22. Dylan and I started to talk through the cameras almost every night since the wedding. I just miss him so much, just seeing him really isn’t enough, but it’s going to have to be until June. Nine months is just way too long. Meanwhile, Amanda and Cole were getting closer so she had less and less time for me. I started to hang extensively with Davis and Alec. We were starting to be referred to as ‘The Gay Musketeers’, but we didn’t really mind. We were gay and if we couldn’t have a sense of humo
  23. I was so angry, I could’ve punched my uncle Kevin in the face for what he was saying, that’s what I would normally do to someone who talked to me like that, but I couldn’t and wouldn’t do that to my cousin. That would really ruin her wedding. After all of my cousin’s routine wedding things were over. She and her husband, Rick went from table to table. When she arrived at our table, her parents happened to be right next to her. “Vera, tell these…these Sodomites that they need to leave this
  24. I didn’t have to ask Dylan why he was so upset. I already knew it was because he knew that he would probably never get to see his little brother grow up. All I could do was hold him and that’s exactly what I did. The poor guy cried himself to sleep and I couldn’t sleep myself until I knew he was resting. I woke up to the alarm that we had set so we could get up in time to get ready for the ceremony. I turned off the alarm and looked over to Dylan who was still asleep. I decided that I woul
  25. I started to dress and Andy got into the shower next. As I looked into the mirror, tying my tie, all I could think was: How could she not tell me? Then, I would think: Well, she did kinda give on being my mother. Why should she tell me? Andy came out of the bathroom with a towel tied around his waist, still dripping with water and his hair all straight and then little curls at the end. As water dripped around his muscles, it made my heart beat so fast. I finished doing my tie quickly so
