Oh my God.... Jude is just pitiable. As, I guess, are all young men. Slaves to biology.
That opening paragraph was just gorgeous, Clancy. But I truly loved this line,"“Whatever,” I said. “Can we go back now?” Jude listened just so long and then tried to stand ground. It is a push-pull game these two men play. Is that common in young male's relationships, I wonder.
thanks Sharron! I think it is common for there to be a boy who is the "alpha" sort of ... leaders and followers. Jude recognizes Tommy's ridiculousness and a lot of times can't stand for it. But in a way he knows Tommy pushes him out of his comfort zone and he needs him.
"“Couldn’t we just meditate instead?” I asked between heaves." Bloody marvellous comeback.
haha thanks Caroline I thought so too. this is one of my fave chapters.

Yes, I understand. I have sad predictions for Tommy, and I am already sorry for it. His family have really messed with his head.
