Hello, Kim! I am very happy with this great update of this amazing story. I love all the anguish that you can pass so brilliantly. The moment when Brian tells Justin that will not allow anything to happen to he is as own of Brian. It was very exciting.

You are a fantastic author, my friend and I want you to know that I love this story and I look forward with great anticipation each update you make.

 

A big hug, my dear!

Fátima Klayn.

Hello, Fatima! Thank you for taking the time to read this chapter, and for leaving me your thoughts. I am very appreciative of that, my friend.  I am happy that you are enjoying this story. It really helps me to know that readers are still following this story and finding it interesting. Thank you for the support.  *Hugs*  ~Kim

Oh, that was a heartbreaking chapter! The truth must have come out sooner or later, but it’s still so incredibly painful. Poor Will and Sarah! At least Brian is there to support them. I understand their grief, their desire to get the murderer in prison, but the Sheriff was right, they should get everyone connected to this crime before arresting someone. I nearly cried – this chapter evoked such emotions in me, it’s still hard to think normally. You’re brilliant, Kim. To describe the grief and pain so well takes a lot of talent.

I *loved* Brian and Justin’s moment! I missed their interactions. I smiled like a fool, seeing how worried Brian was for Justin. He loves him oh so much, I wonder if he realizes himself how strong and deep his feelings are. I loved how protective he is, how he vowed to never let anything happen to Justin again. It was a beautiful moment, Justin needs support right now too. Brian is wonderful for taking such care of everyone.

Thank you, it was an amazing chapter – painful, but great. I can’t wait to see the next one, it’s physically difficult to go on long without the next dosage! Thank you!

Hi, Katrin! Always a pleasure to read your thoughts. Thank you for reading these latest two chapters, and for your kind, thoughtful comments.  I'm very glad that you are still enjoying it.;)  And yes, Brian is slowly changing from the indifferent, rebellious boy he used to be.  I am so sorry I cannot update faster. I have tried, but between helping other authors, my father passing away recently, and going back to work, it just is not possible at the moment. But rest assured I WILL finish this story, and I have quite a bit more yet to tell before it's done.

Thank you again for all the support, Katrin. That means a lot to me, my friend. *Hugs*  ~Kim

Finally the Walkers get the truth. So very sad. Great chapter, lots of moving the story along. Glad Brian got to see Justin again finally. Hoping for Brian Justin in the next chapter. As always can't wait for more my friend.

Well done!!

:)

Thank you for reading, and for the comments, Susan. Very discouragec at the moment, so I needed that. Honestly, it if wasn't for the few readers such as yourself who have commented - and the fact that I will never leave a story unfinished - I might not have even posted any more of this, since not many readers seem interested any longer. So I greatly appreciate your feedback. And no, I will not leave a story undone, so it WILL be completed as soon as I am able to. Thank you again for your kindness.  *Hugs*  ~Kim

Another great update Kim! Now that the authorities are involved, hopefully justice will be served for both Justin and Dale. Can't wait for the next installment!!!

Hi, Tamara! Thank you as always for taking the time to read and comment, my friend. You're so wonderful about that, and I do appreciate it.  I will actually try to wrap up this part of the storyline fairly soon, because I want to concentrate more on the boys' relationship, as well as what will happen to them at the end of the summer.  I will get this updated again just as soon as I can. Thank you again, Tamara.  *Hugs*  ~Kim

What a terrific chapter.  You could feel the emotions and the pain.  Hopefully the doc's son does the right thing, but people like that only think of themselves.  Love the part with Vic and Emmett.  They have been silent too long.

Hi, my friend. I really appreciate you reading and commenting. You are always so supportive of many of the writers on here; thank you for that.  It does get discouraging at times when there is a drop in reviews; at times makes me wonder if anyone is still interested in following it or not. So I really appreciate you bearing with me in between updates.  I wish I could update faster. But alas, just not possible right now with everything else going on here and in my RL. 

I hope you continue to enjoy this story; I still have quite a bit more to write, even after the situation regarding Dale's death is resolved; to me that is a relatively minor subplot compared to how the boys wind up at the end of the summer. Will they be able to stay together, or be rent apart?  Thank you again; your feedback is greatly appreciated!  *Hugs*  ~Kim
