So. I guess I was having a good day, so you lucky people got an extract three chapters.
Chapter Thirty-Five
Of course Dylan wasn't going to be angry at Alec, he's too reasonable to judge a situation before he knows the full story. I wanted Dylan to open up to Alec, and although he did a bit, Alec is aware that he doesn't know the full story of what went on between Dylan and Jayme- so that will be explored at some point.
Chapter Thirty-Six
I needed to have Dylan and Alec's family meet- so dinner seemed like the best option. I also can't wait to write about Alec's dad's work's charity dinner- I'm looking forward to it, much more than Alec is.
And chapter Thirty-Seven
Alec telling the school about his relationship with Dylan. I'll admit, I'm not 100% happy with this chapter, and it will need some serious work in re editing but for now it will do. I'm happy that they are both in a public relationship now, so that will be much more fun to write.

So I'm a little behind on updating this...
Right. So I completely forgot to update this, yet again. I'm hopeless.
Anyway, so chapter Thirty-Two. This chapter was all cute and cuddly and aww... I'm just in love with Dylan and Alec so much...
The purpose of this chapter was to really address the issue as to why Dylan told Alec he was gay right when they met. I know that a lot of you had been asking me this and said it was unrealistic and what not, but I hope this chapter helped you understand why Dylan told him when he did.
Chapter Thirty-Three. So Luke already figured out that Alec had been seeing Dylan. This chapter I really wanted Luke and Alec to show their relationship- although they might not be close, they do like each other and look out for each other, and from this point on wards their relationship will become a lot closer. In this chapter I also wanted to develop Luke's character a bit. I know some of you pictured him as some lazy, depressed teenager who hated the world etc. but he isn't. He's a really smart kid who just keeps his head down , who doesn't need to be popular and go out partying all the time. In a way he is sort of the opposite to Alec- although Alec doesn't feel the need to be popular and party all the time; that's just who he is.
Now, I know a lot of you saw the affair coming, and that actual act isn't something vital to the story- the aftermath is, and I can't wait to write that part of the story, so I'm not going to say any more about it!
And of course, chapter Thirty-Four... Alec expresses his fears and the appearance of Jayme. I loved writing this chapter so much, I knew right from the start how it would go! And I'm sorry, but I couldn't resist leaving it on a cliff-hanger. :)

So some of you guys have been reading this...
So I've noticed that some of you have been reading this blog.... yeah, the blog I completely forgot about! So I'm now updating it for you!
So, chapter twenty-eight/chapter twenty-nine. These chapters are where Dylan tells Mitch about his relationship with Alec and Alec decides to come out to his friends. I loved writing these chapters, simply because I thought that they really help with the characterisation for Sam, Matt, Mitch and Cam... I knew from the start that they would all accept Alec's relationship with Dylan, but I wanted each of their reactions to be different and suited to their personalities. Sam found out first, by himself because he is Alec's best friend. Matt is the more maturer one of the group and Cam... well he's unpredictable ;)
Mitch's reaction to Dylan telling him about his relationship with Alec is something that will be explored more as the story progresses... Mitch is very protective of Dylan, because Mitch was the one who was there during Dylan's relationship with Jayme, and he's seen a side to Dylan that no one else has... yet.
Chapter thirty. The double date. This was also fun to write, It was to get Alec to mingle more with Mitch and Sally. But also, there is that all important foreshadowing of the fortune cookies ;)
And of course, chapter thirty-one. The R rated chapter. This stuff is really difficult to right since I am a girl, but I enjoy reading it other peoples stories so of course I've got to write it for you guys! What I really try to do is make it more focused on the closeness of Dylan and Alec's relationship, and how at ease Alec is becoming with his sexuality, rather than just a crazy gay sex scene.
The writers block is officially gone, but these two weeks on the run up to Christmas are going to be crazy busy with school work, uni applications, christmas ball etc. SO I WILL TRY TO UPDATE ASAP! But on the plus side, the rest of my family are going away for the week after xmas... so I'll have lots of free time... time to update :)
