Chapter 21 is now posted.
If you have read this chapter, you'll recall Mike made space for Trent within the bedroom. Little steps like that are significant in a developing relationship.
My current relationship started out as long distance. When I was able to stay for a lengthy time in a state that wasn't my own, just having a bit of space was substantial.
So how about you? Were you in a situation to where a lover or partner offered you some space of your own in his own home? What did it mean to you?
Now that Trent has to be on his own, where will his own place be? Within the next couple of chapters, the situation will become agitated. There is an abundance of uncertainty for Trent. Just how Mike — and Lance — interact with circumstances make Trent's steps forward even more confusing.
Mmm, chocolate mousse! A very satisfying chapter, but I can't help thinking it's the lull before the storm.
ReplyDeleteGive it time. The "storm" will set up the next story. Trent has some intense moments in the next month — but Lance even more so. Thanks for staying with the story.
DeleteI agree with the direction it's going. I personally believe that unless someone can be happy single, on their own, and in their own space/life, they won't be happy with someone else. I think eventually they will wonder what they missed in that period of 'growing up'.
ReplyDeleteSo thank you for another great chapter, and I continue looking forward to the next, whether it is a day or couple weeks away.
while i’m not happy with how Lance is acting currently, i think him and Trent have much more chemistry than with Mike, and Mike being Trents old high school teacher is quite concerning. rooting for a Lance/Trent storyline but will read anyway, great story so far
