Well the comment I left on FB kind of turned out wrong. Although Emmett's reason still had to do with sex in school (hey-we are talking Emmett, here), but, if I would have thought about what we knew so far, I should have realized Ted was in to burglary. Afterall, he DID teach Justin how to pick a lock, so it makes sense he got caught.
Hmm, it will be interesting to see the severity of punishment the school hands out. As Justin had told Brian at one time, "They're strict in here. Nobody really misbehaves." It's kind of ominous. But what might be even more interesting is to find out what brought the argument on inthe first place. You fucking asshole. You try that one more time." Yeah, don't sound too good.
So, what's going on with Justin? Brian vs Emmett, I would think Justin would tell Brian the truth before Emmett. But I doubt he was upfront with Brian. Which was a really stupid thing for Justin to do. He knows full well kids talk in there. The discrepancies in stories is bound to come out. Is what he did so bad he doesn't want to admit it? Or is he embarrassed as to the real reason he's in there? We've had three versions now. Breaking and Entering, Stealing, Misbehaving in School. Gotta wonder, right?
I was almost confused for a moment when Justin recognized the cowry shell bracelet. It was described as familiar. I thought Justin knew it from some other place. Too bad Brian had to pull his hand away from Justin. First 'intimate' touch they would have had.
Still loving it. Thanks for the update.

Author's Response: Ding ding ding we have a winner :D. Now I don't have to feel bad about myself anymore. Justin has his reason's and I'm sure you'll understand when you find out :).
I was going to point out in FB that you did come close with Emmett but then I saw your comment here. Good to know you had no idea about Ted. You're becoming my most valuable reviewer because I again thought that was obvious. As a writer I see this in a whole different light. I knew right from the beginning why everyone is in the school and it's hard to see the story from a reader's pov who has no idea about anyting. You're pointing out very important things.
Unfortunately I didn't write anything more about the fighting boys or their punishment. I wrote this story from Brian and Justin's pov and they don't see what happens to the boys so that means we don't know what their punishment is.
I'm glad to hear you're still enjoying the stor. Thank you for the comment.
Hugs! Heidi
