Oooh maannnn so many kissing boys in this chapter, I feel spoiled. *-* I didn't think the things from my last review would come so quickly but I'm glad they did! I like Miles' character a lot, I'm glad he's not there as a source of conflict but is actually helping push Bill and Tom together. They might have needed it. ;) I'll be interested in how his character continues to influence them because he seems like he might be a larger player than I expected.

This fic is such a nice take on the Tom-is-gay-only-for-Bill trope and I appreciate seeing him experiment a little bit! Great chapter. *-*

Author's Response: I love to make boys kiss. When I was reading your last review I was smiling because I knew the things you wanted would happen soon! :) I'm really enjoying developing Miles and the story behind him and Bill, and how he really is around for support rather than conflict. I'm glad you like him! And thank youuu for the compliment. I couldn't resist pushing Miles and Tom together for a kiss. :)

I think Tom is really cool with the fact that Bill is in fact single, that's what I think. I also think that that guy might come back later and stir things up. Good tension in this chapter, I can't wait to see how it progresses~ :)

Author's Response: Ah, I'm so happy you're here reading! I'm glad you like the tension, because that's one of my favorite things to write. And the guy will definitely come back soon. :) Thank you for your words!

OKAY. First.. I want to punch myself for being too lazy to write a review right after I've read this chapter ..b-but I had no words! So I'll try my best to express my feelings right now xD Soo ~ I hope that Tom will bring Bill with him to the party.. I'm really curious how Georg and other guys would react. Also - poor Tomi..nightmares are the fucking worst.. It's so cute to have some kind of 'nightmare buddy' who you can talk with to make you feel better. The dejavu scene when Tom called Bill right after he woke up after his bad dream was so sweet..especially because Bill didn't forget. Awwkay..the sexy hexy scene was perfect I just love how Tom said Bill's allowed to lose control with him. I feel like Bill could be a little bit more comfortable doing this after Tom said that.. Let's just hope. I mean when you're inlove it's allowed to have some sexy time with your other half.. I'm really curious about how is Bill going to handle all of this. The last words broke my heart a bit..it must be really so so hard for Bill a it makes me sad that Tom just probably realized that it's really not going to be so easy with Bill. I hope that both of them will be alright and stay strong. (Also I miss Miles in this chapter already lol) anyway I hope that my confusing review af makes any sense hahahah And have a wonderfull day/night :3

Author's Response: No, noooo, don't punch yourself! I'm just happy you read, but I'm so appreciative of you coming back here to leave me a review. :) I will give you a sneak peek and let you know that Bill and Tom will see each other at the party, and you'll get to see how the others react to hiiiim. Nightmares are the worst, though. I used to have them all the time when I was a teenager and they'd make me scared to sleep. I wish I had a cute nightmare buddy like Bill! Anyway, I'm glad you liked the flashback and the fact that Bill remembered. There will definitely be more sexy times, because I love the sexy times. Bill just has to learn to trust himself with Tom, and I think you're right, they both knew this wasn't going to be easy.

So I'm stopping part way through from reading, so I can type out my thoughts before I forget them -- thanks ADHD. Anyhow, OKAY GOOD THEY WEREN'T FUCKING! Man, I was just as worked up about that as Tom. I kinda thought he was going to deck Miles...Clearly Bill is allowed to have a life outside of Tom, just no sexy sexy time. I'm really glad though that Bill had someone he could really count on in the last couple years, though. And it's also good to know that it's kind of thanks to Miles that Bill is even opening up to Tom. But man Bill is something special man... I'm just really glad Miles managed to find him before anything could have happened. Who knows what kind of mess Bill would be now. Okay, now to finish the rest of the chapter~.
So side thought, there totally needs to be a side story for Tom and Miles because well... they're both attractive men. Haha.
But man! That truth or dare game went south so fast! (Not sure if I meant that as a pun or just bad choice of words, haha.) Smooth move Tom. Or should I say Bill. Haha, I just crack myself up! Christ, how awkward must poor Miles be feeling now? Not only was he the third wheel, but he does care for Bill and he had to lay witness to that. Man, this chapter was something else Kirsty but still, it was soooo good!

Author's Response: They weren't fucking! When I was writing this, I realized it just wasn't necessary for them to have had that going on in their relationship. Plus, there's already enough for Bill and Tom to struggle with, and we don't need Tom's jealousy on top of that. Seriously though, thank goodness for Miles helping keep Bill together. And I like the way you think, haha. A side story with Tom and Miles would be sexxxy. ;)

So I suck at reviews, but I am enjoying this story so, so much. I love the dialogue and the way you handle the description in between without it being overly 'wordy'. You are a fantastic writer (I've always thought so). I love your version of Bill and Tom, and your handling of the sex addiction on Bill's part is amazingly compassionate and realistic (not that I have personal experience in that, but it seems real). Looking forward to reading more and finding out more about what happened with Bill and his father.

Author's Response: Hello, sweet woman! I got a big grin on my face when I saw your name, and then an even bigger one when I read this beautiful review you left me. So, thank you for making me smile. I'm really happy to hear that you're enjoying this so far, and it's really a huge compliment that you think I have a good balance between dialogue and the in between, because I often worry about being too wordy. Thank you! I'm trying to be very careful with the sex addiction, because I know it's a very real problem and I don't want to cheapen it or make Bill seem like less than human, just because he struggles. I hope you enjoy what's coming next, love! I'm working on it bit by bit right now. :)

So even though it's so clearly not Christmas, I'll still wish you a Merry Christmas too, hehe. And man, what a freaking chapter. I got the lovin' I wanted Bill and Tom to have and to boot a little side action with Miles. What a good night indeed; thanks for the spoils! Then on a serious note, man poor Bill! Talk about a shitty life. I'm really curious about his parents now and if either of them actually care about him any more and where they are now. And I want to know what happened when his grandma set him free. I'm going to attempt to read the next one because I just don't want to stop, but I feel that sleep is kicking my ass. But how does one stop reading something so good????

Author's Response: Hahaha, late Merry Christmas! I don't mind prolonging that holiday, because it's my fave. ;) You got some loving and some Miles, too! You knew I'd come through for you, girl. You'll definitely find out more about his parents in future chapters, and the grandma story will come up, too. I hope you ended up getting some sleep, because I think this was pretty late! o_o But again, I'm so happy you're here reading, and I so appreciate hearing your thoughts, lovebug. :*

Ahh, things came up and I'm only just now able to finally lay down and read. But eep! I can't believe how far behind I was. I'm loving how Bill and Tom are interacting but it's also driving me nuts. I get they have to sorta rebuild their relationship since so muhc has changed in the 5 years he was gone, but damn son. They just need to kiss and be all cute and shit already, haha. I also can't wait to learn what the fuck else is going on with Bill, he's such a sketchy dude in the sense he's just lead us on. Eep! My heart is going out to poor Tom; he's still clearly hung up over Bill. I like how he's kind of territorial over Bill, but not in an aggressive way. So I'm curious to see if he can keep up the relaxed attitude for long or if he's going to end up snapping. I'm excited for the next chapter now~!

Author's Response: I am soooo pleased that you're reading this, sugar cookie! Don't worry about being far behind though, I'm taking forever to post this story. lol. The tension is real between them, right? It was quite frustrating to not just let them make out! Bill is super sketchy, and Tom is super hung up on Bill. Eeeep, I'm gonna move on to your next review to read your thoughts. Thank you so much, love!

Ah hah some progress between the two of them! I'm excited to see it although I didn't expect it to all end smoothly.... I think it will take Bill quite a while to trust himself. But I can see that he really cares for Tom in the way that he is uncertain and holds back and even though Tom might be disappointed I think that's sweet and Tom should appreciate the hidden feelings that Bill is showing him. Of course I'm also going to give a round of applause for the little handjob/blowjob ;) Great chapter as always :)

Author's Response: Finally some progress! I'm glad you didn't expect it to go all smoothly, because those boys definitely have some things to work through. Bill has trust issues with himself, it's truuuuue. But his feelings for Tom will keep him working at it. I'm glad you enjoyed the handjob/blowjob scene ;) Thank you so much for reading and for your lovely thoughts!

Good job on the liscence!
As for the story, uhh, yum! Im pretty proud of Bill for being able to leave like that, Toms just gonna have to suck it up and deal. I adored how they were just so comfortable with eachother when they woke up, happy times!...till next time!

Author's Response: Thanks soooo much! Girl, that's awesome that you're proud of Bill for leaving, because it wasn't easy for him to do that. Especially when he knew Tom was naked in the shower.. ;) I'm very happy you enjoyed the chapter and I hope you like what's coming next! :)

Hello lovely! First off, CONGRATULATIONS on getting your Cosmetology license!! That is awesome!

It is always such a nice surprise to see a new chapter from you! I always enjoy nights or mornings where I can read something of yours :D

Oh man, I am happy with the way things are progressing between Bill and Tom but now I'm worried this will only push Bill further away from Tom. I really hope Bill doesn't end up leaving again because I can't see Tom being able to take that again. I can imagine how scared and worried Bill is about getting too close with Tom. It could go good or bad and I think Bill is only thinking of the bad that it could cause.

I really hope they can talk everything out because these two NEED to be together!

Another great chapter, my dear! I hope you have a great week and I can't wait to see what happens next! :D

Author's Response: Hello, sweet one! Thank you sooo much for the congrats! It feels so nice to have that done. 1,500 hours in cosmetology school and two state board exams and I'm now a licensed girl. :)
