Hehehehe I lost my account here so I never knew you had a somewhat new story. It was really good and I'm very glad that you still got your style and that way with words that make people get hooked up. Ever tried publishing something? You've got talent.

Okay so I'm really sorry I'm late, I didn't get the email! But I had a feeling you wouldn't leave me hanging for such a long time so I checked. No long paragraph today - just a little 'thank you' is all. It's nice to have some good entertainment every now and then, huh? I don't care how old you are, don't stop writing yet. Well I mean, you can end this story and all. But keep making more! If you have time, of course. I'm rambling now... heh.

Oh that last line is straight up priceless... as was Caleb's desperate 'STOP!'. It makes so much sense. T'were it me, I would be more concerned that others might tease that he just went along with the flow with everything, but being 'the man' makes sense for him too. I enjoyed the epilogue and the sort of 'riding off into the sunset' feel it has. Suns are hot and will burn like the devil if you're not careful, but still beautiful, so I always find them fitting ends. I'm rambling. My brain is goo. Back to the boys... I enjoyed it! I love that Caleb got to say something so smart and then so dumb, and I melted a little at the line where he just assumed everyone else was right about jocks being dumb. Some of the most brilliant people I've known were athletes, and man could they put me to shame when push-came-to-cranium-shove.
I look forward to 'someday' when you're bored with all your other brilliant work you think 'huh, I want to go and revisit Josh and Caleb'... and we maybe get a side-story about what it's like for little Leonie who just wants to be like daddy and papa keeps attaching ribbons before taking yet another picture...
Cheers!

Heyo! Seems my current pattern is getting to the interwebs for every other post. lol I very much enjoyed how this chapter started. Seeing poor Caleb at the party and seeing Josh's... uninhibited self... was delightful. :) I cheered when roofier got what was coming to him.
Hope you're well!

Did anyone think to maybe take Josh to the ER? Roofies are no joke!

You must have a thing for cliffhangers, huh? It always seems to be that last sentence as well.
I don't particularly have a huge rant to comment about, just some minor things.
First, I'd like to praise this chapter - which is my new personal favorite. It was so. . . What's the word I want? Easy to comprehend? Whatever. Let's go with that. I'm at a supreme absence of words right now.
Anyhow, I feel like this chapter had more charactar arcs than the others. Kinda with Chester, when he said sewing is women's work. It revealed why no one seamed(sewing pun) to know that he sewed.
Josh is my favorite charactar, if you couldn't already tell from my previous sympathetic comments. That bottom scene has me worried. No relationship goes without problems, and if Josh is keeping secrets I'm not sure Caleb is going to be happy about that. I've been making predictions about what's going to happen next, because Caleb was acting a little more. . . Agressive? Well, more so than usual.
I shouldn't be as worried as I am. These are fictional charactars, after all.
Nicely done, like usual.

Thanks for the update, failte!
Ditto on steroids for everything you said in the AN about work and sleep (when the hourlies I work with crab about how much overtime they're doing right now, I have to just look at them and smile because I'm thinking "Yeah but your cray-cray schedule ends AND you're getting overtime pay. Come talk to me in June when my schedule is still this cray-cray." First-world-problem woes at their best I suppose...) Regardless! Mush-brain here can't come up with something much better than 'Kawaii! Update soon!', so I'll just steal your example non-comment:
Kawaii! Update soon!
Cheers! ~M

This is one of the best wrapups I've seen, even if this isn't a necessarily the end.
So I've got a few things to say about this chapter, so let's start with the charactars.
I particularly loved Josh in this chapter because we got to see a side of him I was waiting for. He knows that Caleb and him might not stay together, which made him more realistic than most romance charactars. Another thing about him that I noticed was he is definitely what I'd consider a good boyfriend. He's learning about baseball because of Caleb, he's giving up money partially because of Caleb, and I find that so cute.
Now, Josh's mother.
Towards the middle of the chapter, when Josh admits to not actually wanting to be a girl, it is revealed that his mother says, only so he can hear, '...I'll probably never get to do this again,'. Was that to imply that he and his mother aren't exactly that close, or that he never tells her anything? Or just simply because he's busy a lot? Sorry, just got a tiny bit confused there.
Charactar development is stunning in this. I can't even express how well these charactars were defined. Now that I'm done ranting about charactars, let me talk/write about the plot.
So the romance aspect in the story was executed really smoothly, and is definitely one of my favorites by far. It doesn't happen very often that someone comes in with a nice romance story AND an actual plot, but you seemed to manage very well.
I like the modeling talks throughout this chapter, and how Caleb and Josh talk about their future. The sarcastic moments make this story, again, very realistic.

I had to think of my friend, who is an androgenic model in Japan, modeling male and female clothes
He's from Sweden and over 25, not a supermodel, he now looks. Nearly the same as 10 years ago.
/dravarious
drag queen, too
Josh really doesn't have to worry that much, but I'm curious about his reaction

If Josh doesn't listen to their advice and goes through with the treatment, I think Caleb should leave him. Josh seems like an attention whore to me. What's he gonna do when he's too old to model, even as a girl. He/she's gonna be stuck in a life he never wanted and no Caleb. I blame his mother, she seems like the pushy controlling type.
I love your character Jeanette, I hope we get to see more of her. Caleb really needs a girl/friend to talk to right now. But I liked how his friend Darrin tried to get him say those three little words. I would almost prefer them as a couple then Caleb and Josh.

Weeeeeelllllll that was a big old bomb of a chapeter, wern't it? (and I don't know how, but I totally didn't get a notification for the last chapter, so when I started reading this one, I was like 'wait... what did I miss?' Luckily that didn't take long to realize so I went back caught myself up.)
Very interested to find out how Josh is going to respond to that last line... hell... interested to find out how he's going to respond to all of his intervention. I greatly appreciated Adam's point of people doling out advice were making money off Josh. Always question conflicts of interest!
Also, I think with these two chapters I have finally gotten the boys' names figured out. :) Cheers!

- insert sarcasm here - I really like that little cliffhanger at the end! You gotta keep readers wanting more somehow.
I really don't like this modeling buisiness. It seems so unfair, I can only imagine how bad Josh must feel about it all. I mean, he's lying to Caleb like crazy, AND Caleb says he loves him. That's gotta be incredibly overwhelming.
Anyway, nice chapter!

I think the term you’re looking for is crawfish. No one I know from Louisiana says crayfish. Other than that good job

I'm going to f-ing kill this agent you don't even know. It was the agent wasn't it. They told him to do this. Caleb's pretty smart for telling Josh to wait. Can't wait to see how this plays out...
