Hello Guys, I'm sorry it took me so long to post this chapter. I had to go back and edit the chapter a few times until they'd accept it (and I'd kept adding things to it lol). But I'm really proud of this chapter. I really wanted Mitch to come off more sympathetic. I also wanted to try and portray, as accurately as I could, the feelings of man who was faced...
My wife had back surgery. What was supposed to have been a "walk in the park" ended up being a nightmare. Oh, the surgery went fine, except for the bone fragments that were floating around against her leg nerves causing excruciating pain. So, a second surgery was done five days later to take care of the fragments. Lo and behold, the second surgery went fine...
* I was unprepared for this story. Classes, exams, 2 weeks without a computer, as well as a particularly frustrating writer's block all contributed, and for those I will not apologize. What I WILL apologize for, is that I have another story that I've been working on. A new one. 86 pages on a Pages document. Every minute that I spent writing this new story...
Not for the first time I didn't like the gleam in Leon's eye or the lilt in his voice when he told me I had an assignment. He was much too pleased with himself when he handed me the envelope containing the address and the gate key. We'd been getting along better than usual lately—or had been up to the time he seemed to think that meant I was warming to him a...
Hi Guys! Sorry it took me so long to post this chapter. Life still goes on and mine has been very chaotic lately. I've also been focusing on editing, since it's my weakest link. I tried to keep the personalities of Dex and Mitch intact and as realistic as possible. This chapter involves the National Federation and the men who work for them. And word to the w...
***Alex's Point of View*** Jeez, can't believe I fell asleep on the couch. Wait, I'm on Ben's shoulder. "Oh, sorry about that." I lifted myself off of him. "It's alright. Guess we both fell asleep." "How king have you been up?" I asked him. "About an hour." "Why didn't you kick me off?" I laughed. "You were in a deep sleep, besides, I wanted to take so...
I met Rafe in college. He was my first roommate. It was my first time away from home and I was green. I was so naïve. He was a year older than me and we took some time to warm up to each other. I just wasn't used to sharing a room or my life with anyone other than my family and I had had to get to know them over the course of 18 years. But, after the initial...
I was due to go the dentist the next day when I received a call from the surgery to say that my dentist was off ill and likely to be away for a few weeks. They had managed to get a locum to cover his work but wanted to check that I was OK with seeing him. I said that I had no objection and didn't give it much more thought before leaving the office during the...
Hello Guys! I am so thankful for all the supportive comments I got for Chapter 1. I tried to take my time with this chapter and flesh out the characters better and set up some plot points for the future. I agree with you that Dex and Mitch needed their personalities to shine more so I attempted that with this chapter. I hope this chapter contains less gramma...
Unexpected Surgery The New Year brought new changes for Dave and Leroy. Leroy's family was over more. His Mother was coming around according to his siblings and his Father. Saying she has asked about him a lot, but he decided he wasn't going to put much thought into it. Leroy wanted to wait until he sees her and to make sure she isn't vulgar towards Dave or...
