Awww... I've been patiently waiting for the next chapter and I'm so glad I stayed up and could read it now :D

Another amazing chapter, OMG, Neal has finally addressed Peter \o/ Such a powerful moment, and heartbreaking because of Neal's words. I really, really can't wait to see what Peter and El's next step is going to be.

Thank you for the update ♥

Thank you. Sorry to keep you up late! The next challenge will be to get the boys talking to each other one way or another. Oh, and cuddling, of course!

Haha, well, the Olympics opening ceremony was looooooong... and I couldn't help but click the link to your LJ every 5 mins or so :P At least I was doing something productive... and got the best reward :D :D :D

And a promise of cuddles! Yes, please, Neal needs the safety of Peter's arms around him :D This will help him believe that things can get better. :D

The broadcast of the opening ceremony has only just started here, which is distracting me from writing cuddle scenes! Damn you, cheerful world events!!!

Poor baby! I know it means that healing has begun but still, so sad. Don't know who needs to express his feelings more--Neal or Peter. Much cuddling will be very welcome.

Also sad is that there will only be one more part!

[bella_harvest]

Well, with any luck I'll get carried away with the snuggle scenes and end up over the page limit for one post :)

I'm sitting in the van, traveling to family vacation and I am stunned! Those last lines were just so gaping and terrifying and perfect. Just perfect. You know how to write a story lady, you really do!

[bella_harvest]

I hope you're not sitting behind the steering wheel of the van ;) Safe travels!

[winterstar95]

No not driving, it was my turn to rest, and this wonderful treat was found. Truly, your writing is so special and lovely. I cannot wait for the next part or your next story!

Tried to comment earlier but I don't think it got posted sorry if this is a repeat. Wow such a great chapter. Neal holding a little back as usual and managing to shock El and Peter. What a powerful scene I could just imagine the scene in the pool but Peter in his usual inept awkward way managed to get through to Neal. Dying for the next chapter but sad it may be the end of this story. Hope you do an epilogue set a few months down the road so we can see Neals recovery (just looking for an extra chapter). Thanks for a wonderful read.

[bella_harvest]

Not a repeat. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Deciding when and where to end this is definitely the biggest challenge in wrapping this up. I don't want to push a reset button and make it seem like a little TLC will heal Neal over night and everything will be hunky dory going forward. But I also don't want to detail months and months of a slow recovery process or leave with a feeling that it can NEVER be okay again.
