I don't usually fall for these type of stories, but you got me. Pass the tissues please. Masterfully written and the emotion got me. Thank you.
I greatly enjoyed reading more of your work. This is a lovely story, sweet and sensual. Thanks.
So very sweet and tender, wonderful. I even teared up a little which I don't usually do. Thanks for posting it!
Very well written and tender. Nicely paced. Predictable, but that's what we want to have at Christmas, so no complaints there.
Your stories are always good..but this one was very touching. excellent! Keep up the great work!!

To feel loved again, must be the the best Christmas present. Thank you for reminding us of that. Merry Christmas, author.
...and this is NO exception. Wonderful!
I'm a big fan of your work. Please keep writing.
Your ability interweave realistic details with heartfelt characters, making us feel we're there, experiencing what they're experiencing is a true gift. You had me with these guys every step of the way. This was a marvelous holiday present and I sincerely thank you for it.
You have given this character great depth and realism in such a short time. A reader can't help but care about what happens to him.
Wow! A really well written and touching story. I am going to read more of your stories. I ran into this one in the Literotica Christmas stories.
Beautiful, beautiful. I have no other words and the tears won't leave my eyes.
Great story. I've read several you have a real gift for writing. Thanks for sharing.
lordee ken, you have the touch... sweet, toughing, and everything else. i'll be a fan of yours forever.
But as someone exactly the same age as Alan, I found it depressing!
A touching story. Though it made me weep, it has become one of my favorite stories here.
Another marvelous addition to your library, well done.
- Bel Amour- Love is beautiful at any age.
It is a very heart warming story. Love is every where, even in death.
I have spent many Christmas Eves alone since me and my partner split in 1986. Your story put a little hope that this Christmas might be different. Thank you
What a beautiful story I loved it! What a wonderful way to die! Keep up the good job! ;-)
I think I will read this again on Christmas eve - it might just become a holiday tradition :).
That was the most beautiful thing I've ever read!! I've been reading your work for a while now, and this brought a tear to my eye! Just wonderful.
You had me crying at 2:30 am but you're forgiven it was a beautiful story, short and sweet.
By the part,"The stranger smiled. "Oh, I really wish you would, Alan."
Now really taken aback, Alan asked, "How did you know my name?"
"Oh, no mystery, I heard the cashier say hello to you when you came in," the younger man replied. He extended his hand. "I'm Roger, by the way."
"Roger?" The man bore the same name as the lover he still missed every day. Emotions long held in check began to flood through him, and it was a moment before Alan could compose himself enough to shake the offered hand. Roger's grip was strong and cool."" You had me crying. This story was simply beautiful, and worth taking my time reading it. There is another story, called midnight, that is very much like this, the way it can bring out the tears of a person, even one with an icecold heart. I do hope you continue writing, as if all your writing is similar to this, then you will surely be an amazing author
I know I'm being a jerk to say that a 72 years old really shouldn't do that with a 20s boy. Yet, the plot was superb (though predictable), and sir you have stirred my emotion this very moment :-)
hopefully everyone goes like that. Eery they died so closely together, at christmastime. Nice story.
A tear managed to dribble down my face. Thanks for that unexpectancy... tut tut
We can only hope the love of our life comes to take us to eternity. Beautiful story, especially at Christmas time.
Christmas is a time when we remember and miss loved ones who've left us. Joining them would be the loveliest gift we could receive. I believe we will be with those we loved and who truely loved us and often try to remember their faces and the love.
This story was both sexy & poignant at the same time. Beautifully written and tenderly told!
Thank you
Tears are streaming down my face at the beauty and simplicity of this story. Well done.
Oh what a lovely sweet story. I’m crying my eyes out over the beauty of the eternal love between these two. Simply marvelous.
This is my second reading of this lovely story. I cried throughout. You are a wonderful writer and certainly know how to pull emotions from your readers. Kudos!
I've read this beautiful story several times ans each time I love it more. Thanks for a wonderful love story.
