I Want To Be Around

There is not a lot to Like about Patrick ....is there?

I thinks Cassidy is REALLY gambling with him.

Patrick has known Riley Most of his life.... there is NOTHING about Riley's actions that fooled patrick at all. Riley was Player and so was ..at one ...patrick.

BOTH of them would lie cheat steal give a woman too much booze or date rape drugs -- Riley clearly would.

then Patrick is SHOCKED to see that Riley a "player" is using Him to get at cassidy.

and why doesnt Patrick see this? all becuase Riley is his friend??

Run Cassidy Run....

Excellent story and writing

I really enjoyed this one.

...umh Harry,

there must be some strange 'shrooms in the moonshine you imbibe.
Story was good, thx!

...the trouble with Harry... (Harry in VA, that is...)

... is that he apparently thinks that it's his job in life to show up on Literotica and live up to his name. (The dictionary defines "harry" as "to harass, annoy, plague, molest, trouble, bother or be a nuisance to... something or someone")

I've been reading stories here for quite some time, and I've noticed something. Harry-in-VA has never written one single story - or, if he has, he's never submitted it here for publication. If he'd done even that much, then he just might have a leg to stand on, when posting his scathing little critiques of just about everyone's stories. Judging by the number of times I've seen his "reviews" posted, he's got no other life, outside of reading the tales on Lit, and then trashing them. (If any of you have actually seen even ONE tale that he appears to have loved, let me know. I haven't.)

Does anyone (other than me) wish that he would take his pathetic efforts at "literary reviews" to some other story-forum?

Now, as to the matter of this story:

Woodman, this tale was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish, and even the somewhat "predictable" twist in the story was made delicious by the second "twist" (the one engineered by Sarah) that I didn't see coming! Keep these stories coming!

Now There's A Commenter I Can Love!

Well said AC. It just shows how much we all loves Public Douchebag #1. Listens to M.O.D.'s Ode To Harry like every fucking day and laughs at his hillbilly ass.

SA!

Nothing happened

A long way to go for that.

Nice

Very realistic story about two good people.

I enjoyed this romantic tale

I liked the twists in this tale, including the one where Cassidy gets a little payback!

NICE ONE GOOD STORY . WAT A FUCKING MATE EH. I LIKED THAT REMIND HIM WAT I DO FOR A LIVING HA HA

nicely written with some good twists

I really appreciate your story. Nice twist to the story of a player trying to be played by a fellow player.
So keep writing what you like because I am enjoying what you are writing!
Thanks for posting and the enjoyable time I had reading

So well done!

What an excellent job of responding to the challenge and using a song about revenge and yet ending up with your normal happy ending. This was very well plotted and executed. Thanks for a great read!!

Eh!

Not bad, if you like perfect stories perfectly written!

Excellent Story

Apparently our good friend Harry did not read between the lines, or perhaps did note that Patrick was honest man who played the field with honorable behaviour. Cassiday is going to have a great husband....

I love happy endings...

This was an excellent story, it went just as I wished that it would.

Fine Tale, with a surprise or two and a good ending

Thanks for a great shorter tale, with a hero both strong and honorable. I am a sucker for good endings and stories about succesful family foundings and growth. Thanks Woodmanone. Keep up the good work and entertain us with more of your good stories. Dan

Another Excellent Contribution

Keep them coming!

woops

Nothing earth shattering here, but, the song was a hit for Tony Bennett, not Frank Sinatra.

Why are your protagonist always so dumb? You depend too much on your protagonist making dumb decisions to move your plot foward on most of your stories.
