Click hereFor most of my life, I had supported Jimmy and put up with his shit. I had cleaned up his messes and made everything right. And none of it meant a damn. The worst part of it was that Jimmy clearly didn't even want Gretchen. He'd just wanted to prove that he could take her away from me. He'd shit on her from the day they met. I had spent the last five years loving her with all of my heart, and none of it meant a damn.
I just wanted to find somewhere to crawl into and hide, but I kept walking. The people I walked near, had no idea what was going on. As I left the house and walked across to the parking lot and my waiting Mustang, huge tears came from my eyes. Suddenly, it started to rain. Even with the sun high in the sky, huge rain drops fell on me.
I decided then and there to put it all behind me. I would start a new life without them. I refused to let them beat me. That day would be the first day of the rest of my life. A life without cheaters or emotional drama.
As I hit the freeway, with my Mustang's beefy growl muted by the windows that were closed against the increasingly intense rain, I thought about Coverdale, and I heard him singing in the back of my mind.
"No one understands the heartache. No one feels the pain."
"No one ever sees the tears. When you're crying in the rain."
"When you're crying in the rain."
"Crying in the rain..."

Anonymous2 months agoThere's a nice guy and a wimpy pushover,sadly the mc was the latter. Honestly even when we try to sympathize for him I really can't, honestly he had it coming for him. even if it's fictional no one really is as much of a wimpy pushover as him. And this story is not headed for a reconciliation so why did the author took his Time writing about Gretchen and how good she was blah blah. Just to do a 180 character shift as soon as Jimmy showed up. Wow
Anonymous2 months agoIn a world where 'nice' is synonymous with 'pathetic', it isn't surprising that men like Dylan get cheated on. They're magnets for infidelity as their stup!dity and shamelessness continues to blind them from what people really are. The worse part is that in real life, they never learn until it's too late.
Well written. 5 stars.
Astordatair4 months agoVery good story! I read some of the comments. Most are the usual shit that the no less usual army of self-proclaimed social judges pollute this site with. But Kahunabob wrote a very sharp analysis that clearly stands out. He perfectly nailed the psychology of the character. 5 stars for the story, by the way.
26thNC5 months agoJimmy finally crossed a line that destroyed his relationship with his brother. The stupid, cheating bitch Gretchen was just collateral damage.
