What Paul needed was to get right back on the wagon, Terrence had said. "You can only be in mourning so long," Perry chimed in. "Mingle, mingle, mingle," Terrence added. "That's how you shoo the blues away." Paul's friends had managed to lure him out to an ocean-side café in Santa Barbara, the first time he'd been out in public since the funeral. He hadn't...
This is my first gay story. It's been very interesting to write, and I was amazed how easy it actually went. I'm curious how you'll find it, and your feedback and vote is greatly appreciated.

***Everyone in this story is fiction and is at least 18 years old or older*** ***** Chapter 7: Summer in the City It was a mid-May afternoon when I heard Jason's board rolling down the cement path to my apartment.

I finally bring it up one day, when the moment feels right. It's not that I was ever worried about offending him, just concerned that he wouldn't listen, which is a tendency of his whenever he doesn't see value in what I have to say. But today he is in a receptive mood. "There's a resource I would like you to take a look at. I'm sure they have it in the li...

And the new adventure begins. Oh and Alex's new hockey g...

I will be one of their internal IT specialists. The company has Sales, Finance, Customer Service, HR; a full complement of areas where a faulty PC could cause big problems....
Authors' note. This is a collaborative story by Electricblue66 and Jason Clearwater. We have each taken one of our previously established characters and brought them together in a combined world, writing turn and turn about with no pre-conceived plot. The result is quite unexpected... "Hey, Ruth, how are you? It's been a while, hasn't it?" "Adam. Where ha...
I could have laughed—if I weren't a little weary and tired of the cruising—and tired of looking over my shoulder in case I saw Austin, not knowing what to tell him about having walked out on him. I'd walked the paths of Marconi Plaza park for over an hour without a bite when all it took was for me to sit down for a rest on a bench and a man sat on the bench...
Fantasia was a wildly popular place. Even on a weeknight, it was busy. On a Friday night though, and with Kickback playing, Fantasia was a madhouse. Somehow, although Dillon had no idea how it could have been done, Carter had managed to reserve them a booth in the best location.
