It's Cole, it's good.
Wonderfull. Liked it very much. More!
I liked the concept of the two sories in one, like Merkin said. And, like in every other of Cole's work, you can feel the angst and doubts and anger.
Great job.
-
What could I add more to aal this?
I am not going on the uncertain path of saying this was your best story ever, because there were so many more bautiful stories.
The end of this one however was beautiful and just how i should be.
I enjoyed every part of it.
Thanx Cole!

*Agrees with Des*
f you don't want to be embarassed, then... No, don't you dare even think about that.
Greats chapter. Well done. Be proud.

I've seen good arguments here for telling them and not telling them.
Cole said some very wise words, though. If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't do it and wait, for the same reasons.
But that's easy to say, from this distance. You are the only one who can know how your sons will presumably react.
One thing to add; if you are going to tell them, do it together with your wife. Let them see inmmediately that you both sorted it out, that they immediately can see that things are good between you and that there still will be a loving, caring and solid family.
Because there is, I can see in what you are telling here.
Respect. For both of you. And your boys.
Wish you good luck with this situation. But you all will manage, I'm sure of that.

Very nice story.
But it is getting very dark now. You can almost feel the fear..
Great job again, Cole!
-
A very good read!
And mismatching socks.... Where have we seen those before....

My first name is Bart, and when I started school it was relatively unique, but the TV show Maverick took care of that. The use of Bart increased, and then The Simpsons put the final nail in my uniqueness of name. Nobody even blinks over it now.
For many years, at least into the early 50s, and maybe still for all I know, the Dutch had a list of 'approved' names, and parents were NOT ALLOWED to pick a name for their child if it wasn't on the approved list. If they could prove a familial and historic record of a name in their family history, they could apply to have an exemption made.
I've decided that I'm rambling, and I'll just shut up now.
Bart is not that special.
At least not in the Netherlands My real first name is Harm. It has its origin in the north of the Netherlands. Rare in the south where I live, but not unknown. In English spoken countries however, it means something completely different. Always good for a laugh.... "Relax, its my name, I won't do you any."
I never use it on international fora for that reason. Talking about making bad boys because of "bad" names...
(it is an abbreviation of Herman, by the way.)I know about the list. It was still there in the early 60's. There was a problem with my sisters second name. Until they showed the birthcertificate of our grandmother. She was named after her.
But to be honest, sometimes it wouldn't be a bad idea to re-introduce it. I see names of new borns.... Stigmatised for life.

I'm a fan of Cole's work, so I'll say no more.
I'll say it again.
I'm a fan of Cole's work.
Whithin a few lines you can 'see' in the mind of the caracter. And that is first of all very good, and secondly very nice to read.
Like it!
Like it!

This kind of situations is very un-Dutch and because of that strange to read.
*Spoiler-alert*
Here in The Netherlands it is very unlikely to take someone into your house without letting police or family know what is happening to the boy, and where he is. You are getting in serious trouble by doing that.
When I started reading, the first thing I thought was "Oh no, not again. Man finds desperate runaway boy, takes him into his home and they live happily ever after."
By introducing the boyfriend, things are taking a different turn. A very interesting one!
Like it so far, added it to my favorites!
Thanx Trab!

I did!

Chapter 6!
Thanks for pointing this one out, Trab.
Excellent story!

badmouthing garlic!
That's exactly what garlic is.
Badmouthing....

#1 Calzone
And I don't want to know what's in it.
Speak about strange combinations; We've got Domino's pizzza here in the NL, and they sell pizza with shoarma...
(And Trab; every normal person hates the taste and smell of garlic.
) -
This is one of those stories on which, after I read it, I remained silence and stared at my screen for a while...
Doesn't happen very often, but now it did.
I'm impressed. Very.

Chapter 4 is up!
And it is getting more and more complex and confusing.....
I like that.
-
And that's exactly the same with chapter 4!
-
Shucks, Oliver, I bet you say that to all the boys...
No way. I've got my standards.
In this case it was absolutely the result of your writing.
The way you've set the atmosphere. How did Des call it? So vivid and accurate.
You really have a gift.
-
Great story.
Nice.
Funny.
Sweet.
Yep, that's the word. Sweet.
-
My post will be like the ones above.
Well done absolutely!
And Cole, thanks for another cliffhanger like this...
(We want chapter 2!

Damn you. But that isn't one of your choices and you MUST pick one of the choices.
I did, I did!
Option 5, to be more precisely. If I translated that right.
But some % of nothing is still nothing, right?
When I see Trab's solution I am jealous in some way....
-
my WHAT?
-
Agree. Totally.
Just like with his first novel.

Wibby,
Clich? story asks for a clich? comment.
Wow, hot piece of work. I had a good wank with it. Several times. Thank you. Let him f*ck the jock in the next chapter!
Now, seriously; it was hilarious.
Funny piece of work. I had a good laugh with it. Several times. Thank you.
Oliver, who is curious already for the comments you'll get after you've posted it on Nifty......

When it comes to promises about pooing, don't trust him.
C
Maybe it's not a hug he's after. When you have your arms around him, he'll grab your arse. With both hands, or paws.
It wasn't that bad after all.
To be honest, it was kind of nice.
In a funny/furry way.......
At least not in the Netherlands

Gather with friends, drink champgane at midnight and watch the fireworks.
And eating lots of 'oliebollen'.
Trab, help me out here. Can you explain 'oliebollen' in proper English?
Beside of that; I wish al of you here at AD all the best things for 2010!
