"No, stay." I murmured, rolling over and letting my arm drape over his waist. He grinned at me and planted a kiss on my forehead.
"Okay." He agreed, reaching up to shut off the light before he snuggled back up against me.
"So Monday?"
"Mm." He murmured sleepily.
"It's a real date, right?" I asked. "Like, you're actually going to try it out?"
"Yeah." He rolled closer and tugged me close to him until I was pressed against his naked body. "If that's what you want."
"It is." I told him, swallowing around the lump that had suddenly appeared in my throat.
"Okay." He kissed my head again. "Then let's meet at 6:30 in front of the main entrance, and I'll have something planned for you."
"Like what?"
"It'll be a surprise." He murmured. "Go to sleep."
I lay there in the dark as his breathing evened out, trying to shut my brain off. This whole week had been an emotional rollercoaster, and I still wasn't sure I was making the best choice, but I think settling for Andrew would be a better option than figuring out what the hell Barry was up to. And if I was honest with myself, Barry wasn't even an option, not a real one at least. It was time to let it go and move on to attempting to fix what I had already started. It seemed like the more grown up thing to do.
So why did it feel so wrong?

CuriousPeteover 3 years agoGood Story
I think you have written a good story with very hot sex! Yes, Josh is being tossed around and is uncertain. But he is 18!! And Andrew and Barry are just a few years older. Break-ups, drama, loyalty, etc are all a part of growing up. I look forward to reading the rest. As I've said many times, you are a great writer. Yes there are some typos, but really critics, she is doing this for free! Relax and enjoy!
Anonymousover 6 years agoThe above statement by Josh on Chapter 4, Page 6 is the only thing right about the whole saga !
Anonymousover 6 years agoI think I've got to give up on this one at this point. Silly plot. To call these characters shallow and insufficiently motivated would be generous. But what really kills it is the lack of attention to detail. Not just small stuff like eye color discrepancies (this time Barry, who is given "honey" eyes one scene and green later), but major plot points: In this chapter Lindsay complains about Andrew in a conversation with Jay, who doesn't know about Andrew—he'd ask about that I'm sure!; later, with the silly Casey thing the main character names Casey before his identity is revealed. The plot's super thin, there are only like three things to keep track of ... Not worth continuing when I can't trust the author to get such simple basics in order
kayseaover 6 years agoFirst, I'm so glad you and your family are doing better, and you and your fiancé sound like amazing people. I'm so glad your brother is in recovery, and that he has such wonderful support around him.
2.) Be nicer to your characters? It's watching (reading) Josh train wreck again and again that has me hooked, rooting for him. It does really hurt a piece of my heart each time he does it. Which means a huge kudos for you for writing such amazingly real characters.
3. And now for something completely different...
3.1:As a D-1 rower in college, who sat stroke seat, you'd have to pry that oar from my cold dead hands rather than move me to another seat. Or have me tear my intercostal, & some back & abdominal muscles. And that just meant we taped me up so I wouldn't accidentally breathe on that side until the awesome 2000m sprint that is a race. (1.24 miles)
3.2: Every year there is a regatta in San Diego. All the D-1 California teams go, and Yale and Duke came the years I competed. My apologies to not remembering which of the Ivies it was, but their awesome shirts read: "Rowing... the only sport you can win stitting on your ass backwards."
3.3: You will never have anyone with more stamina, in & out of bed, than a rower: Yeah, Rowers do it better. ;)
Tesaoboyover 6 years agoI'm so sorry to read about the drama and pain your family has endured, but I'm heartened to know that your brother has recovered. What an ordeal! I know it's selfish, but it's great to have you back. This story is compelling and addictive. When I discovered that you were writing again, I re-read Woodbridge and then the first few chapters of Josh's story to get back into the flow. Excellent job. Please pay no attention to the odd, negative comments from behind the "anonymous" curtains. Seriously. Writing is hard and you do it well. You've brought these characters so much to life that I have become emotionally invested in their lives. Thanks for sharing your gift.
